WASHINGTON, June 15-The new liz
quest over the victims of the Ford's build

The first witness WIS contractor named
Pierce. He said that he had made a bid

when he stated that not h brick could have
been moved with safety TO the building

EnRNHAM POST.

New YORK, June l5.-The members of
the old Earnham post, now banded to-
gether under the name OK the Noah L..
Farnham Independents. have decided 20
appeal to the national encampment OF the
Grand Army, which meets at Indianapo-
lis in September, for settlement OF their
troubles.
It was resolved to send letter to the
national eucampment inclosing their re-
port, doubling the wisdom OF leaving the
entire control of the pension matter in
the Grand Army in the hands Of ii COM
mittee composed largely OF pension agents;
declaring that the resolution OF 1884 yio-
lates the spirit of the constitution by
abridging freedom of Speech that if the
encampment leaves The matter in its pres
ent condition. the post will feel more COM
Portable outside the order; but, that il It
will prove that the voice of calumny has
been raised against II, ana that me,cenary
measures are not in control of its councils,
the post would request to have its charter
returned. on the ground that its action
has been taken solely III the interest of
honorable members Of the Grand Army.

The Invention of German Tailor to
Protect Soldiers.


Projectile makers in recent years
have expended much money, time and
ingenuity in increasing the efficiency
of the various missiles that come with
in scope of their endeavors, and they
have undoubtedly achieved some Won
derful results. But of what use is it
all? No sooner is the projectiie inn
proved to the extent of demolishing
the likeliest object of its attack than
some counter Improvement is made to
defeat the improved projectile. ArInor
plate is made too strong to be pene-
trated by missiles of the greatest
known penetration, and then missiles
are made to penetrate the armor, and
stronger armor has to be made. So the
inventors in the two lines keep playing
seesaw with one another, now one up
and now the other, until it seems as if
their rival efforts must produce about
the same result as if neither had ever
begun. and as if the best way to end it
all was to mutually agree to do moth

An Invalid's Wonderful Work with
Pet Frogs.
A New York Correspondent Tells About
the Astonishing Tricks Performed
by the Queer Little Crea-
lures.

Since the publication of Mr. Jewell's
experience with frogs a good many
stories of their wonderful adapta bility
to human training have been told.
Horace Horton. of Buffalo, has reached
the height of success in the way OF
bringing frogs under his persuasive
control.
He is a wealthy invalid and derives
great pleasure from teaching his pets.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. jew
ellis frogs would come at the sound of
a bell to get their dinner from their
masters hand. All this is wonderful,
but Mr.. Horizons triumph has been

spondent visited him the other day and
witnessed his unique frog circus. Gaz-
ing down into the little artificial lake
he saw ocean shells scattered over the
bottom and wondered what they were

simultaneously from every shell

and every leg was drawn close to the
body and the action was taken.
Form in line came next, and the
weil-trained amphibians formed in
four lines with an old giant at their
head. who, Mr.. Horton said, weighed
six pounds and seven ounces. He was
enormous, and looked as though he
had dined on his weaker brethren for
generations of tadpoles.
At the word of command they per-
formed all kinds of evolutions, every
leg kicking in perfect unison. Their
movements were astonishing in num-
Der and variety, and one might well
believe Mr.. Horton s statement that it
took him over ten years to get this Sc
lect company into such perfect disci-
pline. Races were held after the drill.
and then followed jumping contest.
At given signal each frog in turn
leaped into the water and disappeared
