leries. with their royal artillery gun
attachments, would be absolutely safe.
Even If the neutral ground between
Gibraltar and Spain were occupied BY
hostile foe, Inparatively little dam
age would be the result. During the
writer's stay at Gibraltar it was con-
sidcred desirable to try the experiment
OF firing upward from the plain on the
Spanish side into the galleries, dunn
mics being placed to represent the nee
essaIy gun detachments. A regiment
several hundred strong was according
~ placed IN position and supplied with
ball cartridges. The range, however.
was unknown, and the fire being di-
rected upward, it was fully an hour be-
fore any OF the dummies were hit, after
the expenditure of much ammunition.
In actual warfare, of course, the Brit
lsh rifle sharpshooters must have picked
out their foes by firing downward from
the galleries. Bomb-proof barracks
and hospitals are potent factors against
the horrors of bombardment, and there
is little doubt that there is ample room
at Gibraltar for some amendment on
this head.

the wall, a little in the rear of the ia
bic, / noticed that as in her intense in
terest in the game she leaned toward
the dealer her mantilla upon the side
next him was slipping from her Shout
der. which-she being of Spanish nativ-
itv-was a very charming piece Of liv-
inc statuary. Mechanically the dealer
lifted from between his feet a bag from
which he counted out two hundred dol
lars to pay the cattleman's last win
ming. Without word the latter added
this to his stake already on the table,
making four hundred dollars to be lost
or won. As the dealer shuffled the
cards the mantilla fell from her head
and shoulder, and she gathered it about
her with half-startled, half-coquettish
look of dismay as he turned the decid-
ing card without looking at it.
81 will again!' said the ranchman,
and he began to pile the dollars again
on the cards.
''The dealer reached down to the can
vas bag and emptied it in counting out
four hundred dollars. Then he passed
the bag across the table to his op-
ponent.
'''The game is ended! The bank is
broke! Let me congratulate the senior
on his good fortune, he said, smiling
but behind the smile was the silent
anger of man who realized how he
had been defeated, but must hold his
peace.
"Without a word the cattleman
swept the silver dollars on the table
into the bag and passed it to Wild
looking vaquero who was standing be-
hind him. Ten dollars he passed to the
bartender to be expended in treating
the crowd. The little woman, her eyes
dancing with triumph, hoped down
from the table, and then, with her lean
ing affectionately on his arm, the cat
tleman bowed to the dealer and the
spectators, said: 'Buenos noches, SEN
ors,' and passed out of the room into
the street, followed by his cowboy at
tendant, carrying the two canvas bags,
in which were over fifteen hundred
dollars"

GIBRALTAR AMI IT'S DEFENSE
Possibilities In the Event of Attack by q
Hostile Force,

Experiments at Shoeburyness have
shown that an Armstrong shell can be
be thrown 9,176 yards-about five and
one-third miles-says a writer in Tenn
pie Bar. 1t is therefore absolutely clear
that If all the feet were temporarily
absent, either on some special mission
OF depressed by storm, hostile iron
clads taking up position within four
miles Of the eastward of Europa point
might with impunity send shot and
shell into the outlying parts of the
fortress and cause much destruction of
life and property. On the other hand,
the governor of the fortress would not
be idle, and the experiences of the late
civil war in America have abundantly
proved that the cannon in fortresses,
If they strike ship of war with their
projectiles, even at long range, may do
considerable mischief; while, on the
other hand, many shot and shell may
strike fort and only do trining dam
age. 1t is practically impossible to
throw shot or shell over the high part
OF the rock, near Spain, and the can
non ensconced in the unique rock gal

WHY THE MONUMENT is THERE.
The Story of Maj. Dade and His Brave
Companions.

Companions.
Many visitors to West Point have
wondered what was represented by a
handsome monument OF Italian marble,
inscribed ''Dade and His Command -
The story is not told or only casually
referred TO, in the popular histories,
and the shaft tells nothing of the gal
liant deeds Of those whom it commence
rates. It is futed column of artistic
design, surmounted by an eagle, from
whose beak descends a wreath which
gracefully entwines it. The base is
square, the slabs bearing the names
and inscription beng separated by
miniature cannon, over which numer-
Gus stars are placed at appropriate in
tervals. The names of the officers who
fell with Dade are inscribed on the
slabs. But no hint is given of what
they did, or when and where they fell.
The thrilling episode is worth re-
calling, says the Buffalo Commercial,
especially as it occurred just ffty-nine
years ago, Or, to be precise, on the 2sth
of December, 1885. Maj. Dade and
detachment of one hundred and seven
teen United States troops were within
few days march Of Fort King, Flor
ida, when they were surprised and mas
sacred BY over one thousand Seminole
Indians. The men were rejoicing at
having almost reached the end of a
long and tedious march, and were look
ing forward to celebrating the New
Year with their comrades at Fort
King. They were suddenly attacked
by the savages in overwhelming num-
bers and slaughtered without mercy.
Three only survived to tell the story.
An exploration of the battlefield, made
in the following February, by order of
Gen. Gaines, showed that the detach-
ment had fought to the last extremity,
and that each man had died at his post.
The scene presented to the exploring
part was an awful one. They buried
the bodies Of eight officers and ninety
eight men, and small six-pounder can
non belonging to the command, which
was left by the Indians, was placed
vertically at the head OF the common
grave, where it remained for many
years.
The long-forgotten tragedy is COM
memorated by the graceful shaft on the
banks of the Hudson, inscribed simply
to ''Dade and His Command 1t was
erected in 1915.

The Woman's club.

The first subject Practical House
Construction" in it's treatment showed
that woman may master even the
technique of mechanical subjects.
The beginning of the foundation of
a building is an absolutely level
trench filled with waterproof Portland
cement to a depth of six inches.
Upon the foundation are reared
non-conducting and perfectly per-
pendicular walls for the support of the
roof. Brick makes a house cooler in
summer and warmer in winter than
stone. However, frame house may
be rendered equal to brick by two
thicknesSeS of building paper or an
enclosed space of air made fire-proof
by asbestos.
The roof rests upon the walls. In
small distances, it is tied in various
ways to equalize the strain made by its
weight. Trusses are used for long
distances.
The space between the upper and
lower floors is often filed with plaster
But this is heavy, and hollow tiles
make a better, if more expensive, fill
ing. The two floors must not be joined
by nails which conduct sound.
That fires may draw we'll, chimneys
should be as nearly square as possible.
In this way there will be no extra
surface to cool the smoke.
= Under the topic, Effects of a High
Altitude" the speaker said that val
leys are characterized by dry atmos-
phere, because the higher mountain
peaks condense the moisture and take
the showers.
The people who reside in high alti-
tudes live at a high rate of speed
Their heart beats are from one to fif-
teen more a minute than those of the
jewellers at sea level. Hence people
with heart disease should avoid high
attitudes. When the lungs are af-
fected, however, the result is bene-
ficial Consumption is caused by not
using all the lungs. The increased
respiration necessitated by the rare
ness of the air. calls into use greater
lung surface.
The eliminating organs have more
work in high attitudes, as the waste of
the body is increased by the high rate
of living. There is also a great ex-
haustion of nerve force, and as women
generally have greater demands upon
their nervous force, high attitudes seem
to wear upon them more than upon
the man. 1t behooves women, on this
account, to spend their nerve force as
economically as possible, lest they
grow old faster than their husbands.
At the next meeting Current Top
les" will be discussed; also the very
important subject, Food"

BOARD OF LABOR.

A very interesting session of the Utah
Board of Labor was held on Friday eve
ming. The legislative committee reported
having had pleasant audience with the
constitutional committee on labor and
arbitration, and that the views of the
board had been fully presented to the
committee for their consideration. Mr..
Osby drew attention to the fact that the
question of prison labor had been omit
ted. and after some discussion a resolu-
ton to adopt that part of the constitu-
ton of New York state bearing upon the
subject of convict labor was adopted as
the views of the board on the question,
and ordered forwarded to the committee
on labor and arbitration for consideration.
The committee on organization reported
having had a very good meeting with the
bricklayers. A temporary organization
was formed with Mr.. T. Williams as
chairman and Mr.. B. A. Harbour, secre-
tary, and that a meeting of bricklayers
was called for Monday night at r m.
in the board of trade rooms for the pur-
pose of forming a permanent organiza-
ton. All trades were reported dull.

friendly to him, carried 1t by but % ma
jortty-a loss in majority between 1882 and
the defeat of Henderson may partly ex-
plain the danger line approached by Mr..
Rawlins in his own precinct
Some Untrue Statements.
The statement that Rawlins carried the
Mormon counties and Cannon the Gentle
lions seeking to avoid the fair conse-
quenceS of what has been done. Out OF
twenty-Seven counties in Utah, Cannon
carried fifteen and Rawlins twelve. All
but two of these counties-Juab and
Summit-are Mormon, and both these
were carried by Cannon, and thirteen OF
the Mormon counties besides. The high
est recorded Liberal vote was under 400.
Today the Gentle or Liberal vote in all
the territory would fall short of 1900. 1t
is unfortunate for those holding the other
side OF this controversy that they cannot
find enough truth on which to base a
single friendly argument.
No reference is made to the work of
young Cannon. His attempts to show
that he represented the people, and that
his election was the ascendency of prin-
ciples embodied in him, are discreditable to
his candor or to his intelligence; or they
indicate a baseness on the part of the
Norman people that no one credits.
Flashy he is-luminouS as a tallow dip
his eloquence. is that mystical combina-
of a high-sounding voice in convenient
juXtaposition to a vapid mind. His cleo
ton was the victory of the father. This
explains all, and the figures verify the
explanation.
Mr.. Cannon is the father of the idea
that the Mormon people-taught for years
that they must be as one man in spiritual
and temporal affairs-should be nearly
evenly divided politically. He also said
in an interview in the Chicago Inter
Ocean last January that the declaration
of a Mormon ten years ago that he was
not a Democrat would have been con-
sidered almost apostasy. In the face OF
this statement that Mormons were Sc
thoroughly ingrained in Democracy, will
some friend of Mr.. Cannon be good
enough to explain how that gentleman
proposed to bring about an even division
Of the people OF. his faith politically il
not by the use of a religious influence to
turn Mormon Democrats into Cannon Re
publicans for what may be called higher
than political principles?
The work has been done The people
are evenly divided. Promises of Liberal
Republicans have been fulfilled Yet Mr.
Cannon. with his idea that his peonle
would be evenly divided politically. de-
cIares he has done nothing to affect Their
votes. and has welded no influence in
behalf of his piIittcal son.
Do the people believe Mr.. Cannon?
