f. L. Tompkins, w. V. Croxton and
John F. Jackson. There are yet to be
changed two boards, Roanoke and Mar
tinsyille. and five single surgeons loca-
ted at Winchester, Luray, Grundy,
Harrisonburg and Spotsylvania. These
positions are much sought after, there
being 50 fee paid by the government
for each examination made.
Messrs. Thos. w. Miller and r. A.

more changes in any of the bureaus of

turn of the Secretary, which will be on

tended and an effort will be made to
secure legislation for the construction
of two larger practice cruisers, in

BATTLE WITH A BURGLAR.-Fight-
ing with a burglar whom they found
in the house Wednesday night, Jacob
Kabrick and wife, who live about four
miles from Hillsboro, ILL.,, were laid
low by the intruder, and the woman
may die. The couple were awakened
by a noise, and, on investigating, dis.
covered a man croucbing in corner of
an adjoining room. The man and wo-
man Immediately attacked the fellow,
and the battle that followed was one
of the hardest and bloodiest on record.
The burglar, finding himself getting
worsted, used both blunt instrument
and knife, cutting Mr.. Kabrick in
several places on the breast and knock
ing him senseless with blow that
crushed his skull. Mrs. Kabrick con-
tinued the fight, and was slashed in a
dozen places, the most serious being
cut across the abdomen, that may cause
death. This ended the fighting and
left both Kabrick and his wife helpless.
The burglar had the nerve to con-
tinue the search for money, but failed
to find any, although $1,000 was hid
den in a feather bed in the house. To-
ward morning Kabrick regained con-
sciousness and crawled to neighboring
farmhouse and told of the fight, saying
that the burglar was carpenter named
Fritz Mast. Mast was captured by
Sheriff Mica, and is now in Jail, both
his victims identifying him.

How TO FIGURE on LIGHTING A Civ
EN- SPAcE.-I'he number of incande-
scent lamps required to illuminate a
given space is arrived at by computing
the number of square feet of flooring
and allowing one lamp to so many
square feet, according TO the kind OF
illumination required. Chandeliers
should depend from the ceiling uni
formly at distance of seven and one
half feet from the floor to get the best
results. At this distance allow one Is
candle-power lamp to 40 square feet for
excellent lighting. For good lighting
one 16 candle-power lamp will answer
for CT square feet, while for general
illumination allow lamp for each 100
square feet.

pected that the Rex will prove the fast

IrHAs been announced that China
will sustain Siam, over which she claims
a nominal suzerainty against the French
pretensions that Russia has officially
notified France of her support, and that
the entire British press is clamoring
for resistance against the French en-
croachments. At the same moment
comes the news that Russian expedi-
ton has been dispatched to seize the
Pamir plateau, in Central Asia. The
little war in the East is fast becoming
interesting, and may prove to be the
beginning of grave international COM
plications.

FLIGHT OF AN EXTRAvAGANT PRIEST.
Father Mazziottta, of the Church of the
Holy Rosary, of Jersey City, n. j., has
disappeared after stripping the rectory
of nearly all its furniture and the sac
ramental plate. He is thought to be
living in New York with one of the fe-
males he employed about his house.
Father Mazziotta has been living very
extravagantly, and retained all collec-
lions aud church funds for his personal
use. As a result, Sheriff Stanton has
seized the church property and adyer-
tised it for sale, but the congregation
expect to be able to square all accounts.

THE DECISION ofthe Supreme Court

ridge, just reported, holds that all ship
pers must be treated by carriers with
absolute equality, and distinctly recog-

regulate railways through railway COM
missions, especially that feature of State

carriers to obtain permission of the
commission before granting lower rates
to persons and places.

THE commissioners appointed by Sec
rotary Gresham TO investigate custom
house methods in New York have dis
covered that all the tobacco imported
from all points for cigar wrappers for
the eleven months ended in May was
only enough to wrap So,ooo,ooo cigars,
whereas there are a dozen manutac-
turers in the United States each OF
whom makes double that amount every
year. Where the duty for the wrap
pers for that immense amount OF cigars
has gone to is the burning question that
the commissioners want answered. Ii
looks as if the government has been
defrauded to the extent of 100000 a
year by the employees of the New
York custom-house.

FRIDAY EVENING. July 81, 1898.

THE GENERAL order issued from
Grand Army headquarters that no per-
son not a member of the organization
in good standing shall be allowed to
participate in the parade at the nation
al encampment in Indianapolis, was
doubtless aimed at Farnham Post, OF
New York, as suggested by its COM
mander, since there is no other con-
ceiyable reason why the standing rule
to this effect should have been so point
edly emphasized at this particular
time. The headquarters officials are
boiling doors unnecessarily. Farnham
Post is not on parade but it will be
heard from at the encampment by
proxy, unless that organization shall
have ceased to be deliberative body.
