important amendments we're made to
the general laws, among which we note
the following: Every Select Knight
must become beneficiary member on
or before the LIST Of January next OF
stand suspended from all rights and
privileges Of the order. That no in
Justice may be done all members now
in good standing may become beneficiary
members without medical re-exsmintion
and without reference to age.

The work Of laying the water mains
is progressing at very satisfactory
rate now considering the number Of
men employed, and Mr.. Kinsey will be
about through with Front street today.
The laying Of the 6 inch pipe on Main
street and the 8 inch on Broad street
will complete the village, which will
probably take about two weeks unless
the force is increased. Mr.. Kinsey has
met with many difficulties on Front
street. The entire length of the first
block the pipe had to be laid in water
and quicksand and in order to
make the joints two pumps had to be
worked all the time, and then it was
extremely difficult. Then in crossing
the creek lot of old timbers were
encountered in both approaches to the
bridge making the work both difficult
and tedious. At this point the pipe
will be laid under the creek, but OF the
Main street crossing it is probable that
the contractor will lay the pipe above
water and box it.

A Quebec Associated Press despatch,
OF recent date. says that one Of the
most wonderful discoveries Of recent
years is that made by poor blacksmith
of that city named Ferdinand Altar d.
1t is the long'lost art known to the
pyramid builders Of Egypt Of harden
ing copper. Axes and other edged
tools made of hardened copper have
been exhibited by him, which in edge
and temper rival the best steel Of the
present day. Allard prepared sheet
of his hardened copper quarter OF IN
inch in thickness and had it tested ut
the government rife ranges at Quebec.
At the first shot fred from forty
yards distance, the bullet was shivered
into thousand fragments; on the SEQ
ond the missile, striking the copper
more fairly, was completely fattened,
but remained embedded in the plate
which it merely indented lightly with
out cracking it in any way. This L
claimed by experts to be vastly super
ior TO anything the best steel could de-
under like circumstances and the mat
ter Is to be brought under the i'm
mediate notice Of the British lords o.
the admiralty. The leading military
authorities express the conviction that II
on further trial in the English dock yard
the discovery maintains the same
superiority, most important result Il
must follow and the existing systems b
completely revolutionized.
