Congress has passed and the President
has approved resolution intended to aid the
Commissioners who have charge OF the Chicka-
manga battlefield In carrying out the work
OF forming q ational park there. 1t permits
the representatives OF the various States that
may build monuments in the park to use for
the purpose materials found therein. II the
Commissioners approve
The Gettysburg park shows what such a
spot can become with intelligent supervision
and liberal OUTLAWS. Tho like Of 1t exists no.
where else in the world. 1t Is extraordinary.

patriotic associations and its muni1cent trib-
ute to soldierly herosm. 1t furnishes object
lessons In the military art Of the greatest in
terest to the student Of strategy and tactics.
The field for this outlay has been well chosen.
since Gettysburg was the greatest battle ever
fought on this continent.
But In many respects Chickamauga and
Chattanooga. which formed parts Of the same
series OF operations, and accordingly have
their chief lines included In the national
reservation system. were to tho West what
Gettysburg was to the East. Chickamauga
was the bloodiest battle ever fought west OF
the Alleghanies. Like Gettysburg. 1t did not
end in the utter rout Of either combatant
Like Gettysburg. 1t was noteworthy not only
for the number OF the forces engaged. but for
the number Of States North and South. which
furnished contingents to the rival armies. In
adding portion Of the Chattanooga region to
the park system. the sensational climax OF the
operations at Chickamauga Is also secured
Another point well worth remem berine is
that Chickamauga. like Gettysburg. was a
field which yielded laurels to the vanquished

defence Of Cemetery Ridge is honored among

memory Of those who took part in it. so long

belong to that splendid specimen of the
American soldier. GEORGE II. THOMAS. The
subsequent turning Of the tables. and the
overthrow Of the victors Of Chickamauga on
the heights Of Chattanooga. adds a dramatic
element to the campaign whole. Congress
has more than once practically sgnified its
purpose to preserve to all time tho topograph.
ical features Of these Western battlefields. and
its present action Is a further token OF its
interest in the undertaking.

Such, in substance. is the Information
given by the Secretary OF the Treasury in
reply TO resolution OF inquiry adopted by
the United States Senate. This information
was transmitted by the Secretary to the
Finance Committee.
What an argument these figures. which
arc admitted to foreshadow a Treasury
deficit vnriously estimated from S5O.OOo.o 900
to $3.50 00O for this fiscal year. furnish for
4 prompt and radical overhauling OF the
tariff. according to the principle laid down
Nv the Democratic National Convention in
June. 1892. and approved by the voters OF
the United States in November!

already sustained by the Treasury be re-
couped. except by an extension OF the tariff
duties, go that they will include all articles
impartially. whether now exempt from
duty or otherwise.

too. These three items Of household neces-
eity represent In year total importation
Of $24O, 900. Under the existing system
OF robbing the many for the benefit OF the
few. they pay no tax. the pretext or justi-
fication OF such exemption being that as
they do not compete with the products Of
American labor Except sugar. for which
the Government pays q bounty OF COM
pensationl. they should come to the people
OF the United States ut spot cost on delivery.
Under the Democratic system Of tariff
taxation provided In the Chicago platform
but not yet carried into effect. there must
be an even tariff Of about 80 per cent.
on all articles passing the Custom Houses.
Thirty per cent. OF $40 900 is 81. zoo. 900.
and this would provide. and to spare. for
the deficit which Mr.. CARLISLE. careful
financier, puts at 100000. There would
be IN excess OF $22. OOO. 900. but this would
probably be required to Offset the reduc-
tions on other articles to an even 80 per
cent. basis. These articles are. most of
them, susceptible of production in the
United States. and the reduction OF tho tax
rate would be unsatisfactory to American
manufacturers and workmen. for a time,
perhaps: but the United States Treasury
would not suffer by the change. because
sugar. coffee. and tea. being household
necessaries. would continue to be imported.

An exceedingly interesting English
invention consists of a camera combin-
ed with parachute, especially designed
for obtaining photographs of fortifica-
tions and of the camps of the enc
my, although pictures may also be
made for general surveying purposes.
This parachute is snugly folded in a
thin case at the end of rocket, which
is fired to the required height and
burst open by means of a time fuse.
The explosion sets free the parachute,
which is protected from injury by
means Of a casing Of asbetos The
parachute has a number of thin umbre.
la ribs, and these are forced outward
and kept in that position by means of
a strong spiral spring.
From the parachute a camera is sus,
pended and string held by the opera
tor is attached by universal Joint to
the bottom of the device, for the pur-
pose of pulling the parachute back.
The camera is fitted with an instanta-
neous shutter, operated by clockwork,
so as to give several exposures at inter
walls. AT the back of the box is an
arrangement by which the plates can
be manipulated the same as clockwork.
A swinging motion can be given the
camera by the operator, and this will
enable him to obtain successive pict-
ures over a wide area.
The whole arrangement is exceeding
ly ingenious, and if it can be employed |
practically it marks an important step
in the science Of modern warfare.

Describes the Little Devices OF
Society During Lent.

Lam just trifle slSeptical concerning
Lent in New York. Though my ideas
on religion have always been somewhat
hazy, and though the Briggs trial and
the Parkhurst squabbles have extin-
guished the last glimmer Of compre-
hension, / believe that society keeps
Lent" as a religious festival Am /
right? Not IL know it. Lent Is a
fashionable function. and it's too great
a luxury for three-quarters of the
people to enjoy.
II means salvation--social salvation
to the debutantes and the dinner Civ
ers and the dear party men who are so
tagged that they are forced into piety
for forty days, while the wicked cease
from dancing and the weary are at
rest.
I'm pretty sure I'm not using these
expressions in a Biblical sense. They
must be construed by the fighty crit
icism, and then they mean whatever
you want them too.
Think of it! The flowers on the up
permost terrace have gone into black.
