Only few days ago the judiciary
atives squelched bill providing for
woman suffrage. Now Mr.. Pence Of
Colorado has introduced another bill
providing that women, above the age
of twenty one years, may vote for ma
tional representative. Article H., Sec.
1, of the constitution, prescribes that
s'The house Of represe ntatives shall be
composed of members chosen every
second year by the people of the sew
eral states" Sec. adds: ssThe times.
places and manner of holding elec-
tions for senator's and represe nta tives
shall be prescribed in each state, by
the legislature thereof; but the con-
gress may at any time, by law, make.
or alter such regulations, except as to
the places Of choosing senator's" Mr.
Pence contends that women have al
ways had constitutional right to vote
for congressman, and they have been
unfairly denied the privilege. The
judiciary committee will not get a
chance to slaughter this bill, as it goes
to the vice president, and representa-
tives in congress. The ninth annual
convention of the national Woman's
Suffrage association, which was in
session in committee on the election

Congressman Livingstone of Geor-
gia is receiving letters asking if the
Grand Army Of the Republic would be
welcomed in Atlanta if they should
decide to hold their next national en-
campment there. He replies that
they would get the heartiest and most
cordial welcome they have had since
the organization was formed and
asks: "Why should these Grand Army
men hesitate about going to Atlanta
when they remember the royal well
come given to William T. Sherman,
the man who laid the city in ashes?"
Verify, the "bloody chasm" is closing.
May it leave no scar.
At republican mass meeting in
Philadelphia ex-Speaker Reed very
clearly defined the difference between
theory and practice. He said: Theo-
ry comprises all the things you can
think of, practice comprises all the
things you can do. This is definition
which the democratic party can ap-
it laid down a very comprehensive
theory of government, and promised
that, if given opportunity, it would
put it's plans for the uplifting of the
people into working order. The op-
portunity came, but it finds that
there is wide difference between
promising and doing.
President Cleveland has nominated
Senator White of Louisiana Justice of
the supreme court, the place for
which Hornblower and Peckham were
rejected.
The nomination was confirmed
without opposition and without refer
ence to a committee.
Justice White was born in Lafouche,
La, Nov, 1916; was educated at Mt.
ST. Mary's near Emmitsburg, Mary
land; at the Jesuit College in New Or
leans, and at Georgetown College, d.
c.; served in the Confederate army;
was elected State senator in 1874; was
appointed associate justice of the su-
pre- me court of Louisiana in 1873; was
elected to the senate as a democrat to
succeed J. B. Eustis. His term expires
March 3, 1897. He is Catholic.
Our city churches of the various de-
do well to continue the
revival meetings. AS result of the
Chapman meetings over 800 persons
have expressed their desire to become
Christians, giving on the cards hand
ed to them for the purpose, their
church preferences. The Methodist
church has received the largest num-
Der of these cards = over forty per
cent of the total number. The others
we're distributed among the Baptist,
and Episcopal
churches.
This has been a most remarkable
work and the interest still continues
IN the different churches where the
are being held night
y. Those who participated in
previous revivals say that never
before has the city been SO stirred up
with religious feeling, and rich har-

the proprietor called him back and
said: "All right; I'll give your price"
After the man started to the station a
bystander asked the proprietor the
meaning of the conversation. 81 just
wanted to show you something queer.

Besides the counterweight, which takes
up only one-third of the recoil, there
are two hydraulic cylinders to receive
the rest. These latter are placed in a
horizontal position, and are movable.
Their pistons are stationary.
A few weeks ago another disappear
ing gun-with q ten-inch bore-was
tried at Sandy Hook; and ten shots
were fired in about fifty-eight or fifty
nine minutes. This is an average OF
about six minutes to shot. The
projectiles used at that time had a
weight of 575 pounds, and the charges
of powder ESQ pounds. The eight-inch
rife fired from . Buffington-Crozier
carriage took only a 40o-pound shot,
and just half the powder required in
the other test. Seven rounds were
fired in eight and one-half minutes,
and ten in twelve minutes and three
seconds. In one case, fifty-five Sec
onds were consumed in loading, five
in raising it to firing position, one in
firing and one in the recoil This was
better time than has been made with
stationary gun carriages, and the

Stealing Land from the Sea.

Enterprising men have a way OF
growing land along the marshy shores
of Delaware bay. The plan is to cut
the dikes and let the tide rise and fall
for course of years over a consider
able area, including some upland It
is found after awhile that the dikes
may be removed considerably out
toward the low-tide line, and that
many acres of arabic land have been
gained at small cost. Marsh compa-
nies usually exist for the purpose of
cooperation in such work, and there
are many quarrels over the land Of
men that refuse to join the company in
making temporary sacrifice of up
land for the purpose of reclaiming sub
merged marsh. The land thus re-
claimed is extremely fertile, but it usu-
ally yields crop of malarial fevers
when first brought under cultivation.
