of the supply Of modern arms for the
regular troops and organized militia, ap-
preparations for heavy armament for sea-
coast defense. and provision for additional
cavalry for service in the territories
iraversed by the railroads. Concerning
military education he says:
''The constantly increasing interest in
military education is manifested by an
increased demand upon the army for
officers for duty at co leges and other in
stitutions OF learning throughout the
country. Another gratifying feature Is
the awakened interest in che policy recon-
tary education shall be extended to the
public schools, so that q very large num-
Der OF young men will be well qualified
for the positions of non-commissioned
officers, and hence for the mold
ing of volunteer force into a
reliable army in the shortest possible
time. No better employment can be given
20 the officers Of the regular army in time
of peace than in this widespread dissent
mating of military education. and if any
justification be thought necessary for
some increase in the aggregate number of
commissioned officers it 10 fully supplied

vices."

SUICIDE OF ISRAEL myFn.

The San Francisco Chronicle of the 18th inst. contains the following:
 eThe daughter of Israel Meyer, a Russian Jew, aged o2 years and a mer~ chant, found her father dead in the bedroom of his residence at 512l Grove street yesterday afternoon about 1 o'clock. Meyer committed suicide by inhaling coal gas. A few minutes after o'clock he passed through the house with coil of rubber tubing, such as is used on gas stand lamps. He stopped and chatted with his daughter minute, and then entered the bedroom and closed and locked tho door. Fixing the tubing over one of the gas burners in the room, Myer turned on the gas, lay down and, talk ing the free end of the tube in his mouth, deliberately inhaled the deadly vapor Death was rapid and painless. The daughter, detecting the odor of gas, obtained help, and, breaking in the bedroom doon found her father dead. No reason can be assigned by the family fer Myer's act"
 Under the head of deaths, in the same paper is published notice of the death of J. Myer, father of George, Hyman aud Emma Myer, and Mrs. Dora Katschinski and Mrs. Gussie Schein.
 The two publications evidently re- fer to the death of the same person, Israel MyeH late of Globe, and doing business here and at Tombstone under the firm name of J. Myer & Bro. The deceased was generally known here as J. Myer, although his name appears in the great register of 1892, as Israel Myer, native of Poland, aged 65 years The old gentleman was a sufferer from asthma which together with financial losses sustained during the past few years, probably led to the rash act. Much sympathy is expressed here for the afflicted family
