The December Cosmopolitan.


In view OF the fact that Sir Edwin Ar
mold will very likely be the next poet
laureate. one turns with interest to his
most entertaining article in the Deceln-
ber Cosmopolitan on a Japanese Wa
tering place. The same number con-
tains seven portraits OF Tennyson and
interesting views OF his late home and
surroundings. Tlios German has pen
strated the mysteries of the silent trap
plsts' monastery with a profane kodak !;
Murat Halstead discusses /" Varieties of
American journalism Hermann
throws Light on the Black Artr and
Theodore Roosevelt and Maurice
Thompson each contribute interesting
articles. IA feature OF the number ID
twenty four Partisan journalists, with
sketches OF their work The Cosmo.
p0litan will mark it's first edition of f5O.
600 copies that for January--by the
offer OF 1000 flee scholarships. In return
for introducing the Cosmopolitan into
certain neighbefh0ods the CosinOpoll-
IAN offers to any young man OF woman

St. Landry democrat., 1892-12-10
Judge Ad Hoe.

We have observed prastice prevail
the bar to preside in cases wherein the
Judge elect is disqualified to act. We
presume this is authorized by law, and
it is doubtless very proper, but the ques-
ton arising III our mind is, has the
Judge elect or, the members of the bar,
any coercive authority to make a law
yer serve as Judge dd hoe, if lie be un-
| willing to do 500 Another question
! arises also! is the Judge ad hoc, paid
, for his seryices7 aud if not, why not ?
His qualification, his time and his cap-
| tai, and we can see DO reason Why he
should not be paid
! One single case before the present
court, has occupied the attention of a
Judge ad hoe, for over four entire DAYS,
! during which only one phase of it was
tried. The same case is to come I'D
again aud the questions are compica-
ted and multifarious. We should NOT
be astonished it it require the time and
labors OF the same Judge 0d hoe, for a
week, is there any reason why he
should not be paid for his time and
learning? Another question arises,
conceding he should be paid, who vii!
or should pay him The Judge elect
is paid 1891 for every day of the year,
even when the Judge nd hoe is doing
the business for which he is saIaried.
1t seems to us there is injustice some
where. But it may he said that, as the

The United States has been steadil,

/ has made anything like the same d.
I vance as ours since we recognized the
! Importance OF improving our army aud
! navy III the event of ii war. The armol
/ adopted Tor our men Of war is il great
| improvement on any in the world and
! we are ahead Of other nations in our
cannon also.
The greatest advance has been in sthe
navy: but we have not overlooked the
army, and in every branch that also is
improving. The adoption of the Ktag
Jorgensen rifle as the infantry arm by
our Ordnance Bureau is case in point.
The rifle is .315 callibre, weighs four
and one third feet long, while the
weight of the bullet as originally tested
was 1915 grains, and the initial velocity
with smokeless powder was 2l0O feet
per second 1t has a horizontal fixed
magazine, containing FIVE cartridges, Of
which 100 are to be carried by each man.
These cartridges are loaded from tin
chargers, and the cut off allows the gun
to be used as a single loader. This will
be great relief to the soldiers, who
have been carrying guns of .52 caiber
that weigh from nine to eleven pounds,
including the bayonet.
When it is remembered that the
United States used caplock muskets
even at the beginning Of the late civil
war with a calibre of SO: cartridges
containing about a tumblerful of pow
der, an ounce ball and three buckshot.
some idea can be formed Of the great
improvement we have made since then.
These were followed by the Greenw ood
rifle, weighing fourteen pounds, as long
as a rail and about as effective weap-
on. Nine bullets weighed pound, so
that soldier carrying a hundred rounds
had to carry eleven pounds of ammuni-
tion, which, with his fourteen pounds of
rifle, made twenty-five pounds in all;
whereas, to-day he will carry that much
ammunition and his krag Jorgensen
gun as well, weighing only six pounds,
or less than one-quarter as much.
This gives some idea of the improve
ment we have made in military matters
of late.
