ARMY AND NAVY.

Brevet Brig Gen. r. Chauncey McKeever.
senior Colonel of the Adjutant- Generals De-
partment of the Army, was placed on the Re-
tired List last week.
Gen. Mckeever is one of the best-known
officers in the service, and has served several
terms in Washington. Since the retirement of
Adj't-Gen. Drum he has twice been a candidate
for Adjutant- General. He was defeated both
times, however, first by Gen. Kelton and then
by Gen. Williams. He is now Adjutant- GEN
eral OF the Department of the Missouri, with
Headquarters at Chicago.
His retirement promotes Leut.-Col Samuel
Breck to the grade of Colonel, and Mai Thos
WiId to be Lieutenant Colonel, leaving a va
cancy in the grade of Major. to be flied by
Presidential appointment. The selection is to
be made from the Captains of the line, and
there are about $50 candidates for the billet
Gen. McKcever's retirement was ON account
of age, having reached his 62d year.
An interesting experiment with torpedo nets
will take place at Newport in few days It's
object is to test the efficiency of nets as
means OF defense against torpedoes and at the
same time to demonstrate which torpedo gives
the best results. The Navy Department. has
ordered several Howell and several Whitehead
torpedoes to be forwarded to Newport for the
trial. The submarine Ericsson gun will be
used also in the trials. The torpedoes are to be
fired from the Destroyer. Three nets will be
attacked-one from England and two from
Pttsburg firms. The textures of the nets are
different, and one of them is manufactured of
nickel steel. None of our ships are provided
with torpedo meta.

REMOVED,

Ashley Kightlinger,' of Marysville, o., was
recently removed from, tho position of watch
man in the Pension Bureau. which he has held
for four years His services have been entirely
satisfactory, as was testified by several letters
from his superiors, which speak in the highest
praise. COmrade Kightlnger served three
years in the 96th Oho,and was in the battles
of Chickasaw Bluff. PoIt Hudson. siege of
Vicksburg, Grand Couteau, Sabine Crossroads,
siege OF Fort Gaines, siege of Spanish Fort, and
Carrion Crow Bayou. At the last battle he was
taken prisoner, but RENAL ned only few hours
when he escaped at great risk and brought i'm
portant news TO our officers, which helped win
the battle. The comrade broke down from
rheumatism, paralysis and heart disease which
are directly traceable to his long service.

THE CHEROKEE OUTLET.

Reports from officials now in the Cherokee
Outlet to the Interior Department indicate that
work preliminary to the opening is progressing
satisfactorily. The Land Office Buildings are
now in course of erection, and all other details
are well advanced. A large force of clerks
probably between 40 and 60. will soon be on the
ground to take charge of the nine booths at
which prospective settlers are required to sign
the prescribed declarations.
Secretary Smith within the last few weeks
has received large number of applications for
permission to enter the outlet few days prior
to the day set for the opening, for the purpose
of opening stores of various kinds, representing
that such stores would be a necessity. To all
of these requests he as replied in the negative,
and now gives notice that settlers will find it
greatly to their al vantage to take several days
stock of provisions with them on entering the
Outlet. y

ual comfort. Fear not. am with thee, be not
dismayed, l am thy God"
With all the commendable enthusiasm for
the GAR, veterans who have experienced the
reality of Christian consolation in the hours
of bereavement will hardly take offeuse if, on
such occasions, a heartbroken family and their
pastor, who is their chosen comforter content
themselves with what the Church provides for
a Christian burial
l inclose the words of Rev. VIM Dalman, of
Baltimore, member of what is known as the
Missouri Lutherans The practice of that
body, as You will see, differs from that of
Lutherans generally in this matter. The
ground OF their opposition TO the GAR is
that Of general antagonism to oath bound
organizations. He says: I'm general terms
1T Is true that the Missourians will not allow
the GAR. to have their services at the grave
whenever au old soldier is buried l. G., if We
can do so, as we can OH our own congregational
cemeteries. On public cemeteries we cannot
enforce the rule; we can only protest bury
our member, withdraw, and let the GAR.
proceed with their ceremonies. The GAR is
oath bound; as a self-constituted organization
1t has no right, according to Scripture, to i'm
pose an oath-contrary TO Second Command.
As selfconstituted society, it has no right TO
arrogate to itself functions of the Church Of
Christ, such as to pray in public, call a Chap
lain, etc. We are not opposed 20 the GAR;
we are only opposed to these features of the
GAR. These our principles. OF course
we have much trouble in standing by them.
Complications arise in which it is difficult to
act, and We are much abused and vliied, but
the principles are Scriptural and we cannot do
otherwise"

RAZOR AND sTRoP CONSTIPATION.

This is a combination of good things that
subscribers to THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE
will appreciate. Every body knows the value
and market price of a Wade & Butcher
razor. 1t would be superfuOus to describe
it. 1t has always held first place, and it is
because of this that THE NATIONAL TRIB-
UNE has made arrangements for the follow
ing offer to its subscribers:
A Wade & Butcher razor, hollow ground,
with handsome fancy etched blade, finely
finished, and set ready for use; superior to
all others.
A belt strop, made of solid leather on
steel frame, with box of American strOp
paste neatly placed in one end, and lather
brush of very fine bristles, firmly wound
with best Irvine.
These three articles will be sent together
to any subscriber by registered mail, deliv-
cred Free for 50. These articles only sold
together.
For 81 additional we will send with the
above one hair brush made of imported
Russian bristles, with finely finished rose
wood back. and first quality horn c0mb.

ABOUT PEOPLE,

Mr.. Wolcott one of the gentlemen who is de-
laying legislation in the Senate in the interest
OF silver, is OF commanding stature generous of
girth, and would pass any where III England as
robust edition of Lord Randolph Churchill.
He has the Same pugn&cious and aggressive
look, the same brisk aud confident manner, and
his light and luxuriant brown hair is parted
exactly in the middle and brushed smoothly
down over large, square mead. Like Lord
Randolph, too, Mr.. Wolcott dresses always in
the latest style. and his appearance suggests the
man of fashion fully as much as he does the
man of affairs.
We thought it had been definitely settled that
Representative Breckenridge, of Kentucky,
was born in Philadelphia, but correspondent
who lives in the Blue Grass country writes us
that he was born near Baltimore, Nd. Aug. %,
1887. His father, Robert J. Breckenridge one
of the greatest and best men Of that name.
was a preacher there at that time, being pastor
of the Second Presbyterian Church In 1917
Robert ]. b. removed to Lexington. KY, and
became pastor of the First Presby terrain Church
of that place. Thus it will be seen that Billy
B. was about 10 years old when he became a
citizen of Kentucky. The writer refers us to
the Biographical Encyclopedia Of Kentucky
printed by the Methodist Book Concern, for
proof of his assertions.
1t is believed that Speaker Crisp could not
have found man for the Com nIittee on Terri
tories better qualified than Hon. George d.
kiHs, of the Eleventh Iowa District. Mr.
Perkins was so faithful to the interests of Da-
koia and the whole Northwest in their Terri
t0rial state that Dakota considered it had one
Representative in Congress even before admis-
sion, and now the South Dakota papers refer to
him as their third member of Congress- New
Mexico, Arizona Oklahoma, Utah, and Alaska
will find in George Perkins true friend, and
one who is as devoted to their true interests as
if accredited to them in the House.
D,l,.
of the Agricultural Depar tment, is being prom
inently mentioned by Michigan people in the
city as the successor of the late Congressman
Chapman, who represented the First District of
Michigan. prominent Detroit Democrat,
speaking of the situation, said in sn interview
Mr.. Robinson can be elected, and / really
know of no one else who can carry the same :.
vote that kept Mr.. Chapman in Congress and at
the same time cement the discordant factions
in Detroit politics." Mr.. Robinson represents
the progressive element of the First District
Democracy, and is believed to be the strongest
man in the district at this time.
The National tribune., 1893-09-07
Had the Right to Do So.

Congressman Morse has been sustained in
using a penalty envelope in which to address a
letter to pensioner. 1t will be remembered that
Commissioner Lochren, in his recent CORE
spondence with Mr.. Morse, criticised this ac-
ton as illegal The question was examined
into by Assistant Attorney General Thomas, of
the Postoffice Department. who in reply quoted
the section of the postal laws and regulations
which allows the penalty envelope to be used
for official information and Endorsements re-
lating thereto"
As this decision did not cover letter in
closed with papers from the Pension Office an
other inquiry was made, elieiting reply that
the Congressman's letter need not be written
upon the official papers, but could be separately
incIOsed
