A Stray Torpedo Boat.

A curious craft, looking more like
a coffin than anything else, came up
on the beach near Barley Point, N.
j., the other day and aroused much
curiosity. 1t turned out to be q
submarine torpedo boat, which part
cd its mOorings off Blacktish hole be-
fore its designers were ready to cX-
pertinent with it, ard wandered UP
the Shrewsbury river to its present
resting place. 1t looks like the plain
coffin Cf commerce, except that it is
q great deal deeper, and in place OF
the broad headed silver nails it has
the regulation dead cyn. 1t is iif-
teen feet long and about five feet
high. There arc two wheels fitted
up on an axle, well forward and one
aft. The rear wheel acts on rud-
der. The two wheels forward re-
volvc in answer To 4 crank, which
is worked from the interior, the
cogs being intended 10 catch the
bottom of the ocean and worry the
craft along. The interior is fitted
up with an air producing engine,
and the inventor said that the en-
gine would supply two men with air
enoupb for four hours.

"MuSic from nine 10 half-past ten

by this arrangement people who
hate music and people who can't hold

HANGING PICTURES.
Middle CT the Painting Should Be c

Middle CT the Painting Should Be en-
Level with the Eye.
In hanging pictures it is we'll to
avoid too much uniformity. Give
the picture the best position posi-
BILE as TO light, and above all things
do not hang it too high, says the
Washington Star. Pictures must
sometimes be skicd in galleries, but
they need. never undergo this hu-
initiating treatment in the drawing
room.
The middle of a picture should be
on level with, or a trifle above, the
eyes that look upon it. In a beauti-
ful room great variety may be dis
played in the position of the various
pictures. Family pictures should
not be on exhibition in those rooms
of the house which are set apart for
occasions of ceremony. These may
be appropriately used in bedrooms,
or even in little studios, or dcns,
which people have to themselves.
Many walls are very trying to pic
lures, and it not infrcquently hap
pens that q really beautiful cngrav
ing or water color loses its charm
because Of an ineffective or dis
cordant background. One may re-
ccivc hints and suggestions as to
the proper hanging Of pictures by
an occasional visit to studios Or gal
lcrics, where frequently the tones Of
the walls arc effectively treated so
as to bring out the best points in
the picture. Not long agoin coun-
try house q woman OF taste hit upon
the plan of hanging a bare white
wall with Grapcry laid on smoothly
of rich toned olive plush. Against
this her pictures and cngravings
stood out in greatly added beauty.
Blue denim makes a cool and clicc-
tive background for some pictures.

tee Latest VcSzcij.

tee Latest VcS7cij.
The ships Of The Majestic and Mag
niliccnt class. England's latest bat
tlcships. are TO be armed with q new
type Of weapon in their main bat
tcrics. A new gun, mounted, las
also been designed, and both piece
and carriage are now undergoing
severe tests. The gun is l2-inch
brecchloading rilc. a service jour
nal says that IN il a compromise has
been effected between the l0-inch
gun Of the Centurion and the 13.5-
inch gun of the Royal Sovereign
class. 1t can be fired quicker than
the lighter weapon, and intiict
greater damage than the heavier
In the Royal Sovcreigns and Ad-
mirals the guns have to be brought
TO IL fixed loading station, and the
barbctte locked before loading can
be commenced, but here an alter
native central loading system is
provided, in addition to The fixed
loading station, so that the guns can
be loaded at any position OF train
ing; and one can be kept pointed at
the enemy while the other is being
loaded. Every operation, such as
training. c!evating. loading, etc,
can bc performed by hand as well
as by hydraulic power. The gun is
loaded in the run-out position
which it takes up after Ering, due
to the action Of powerful springs
which are compressed during rccoil,
and as the gun runs out after re-
coil, the breach is automatically
opened, being again instantly closed
after loading by moving lever.
The loading arrangements arc also
very novel, and are designed with 4
view TO saving time, for, while in the
ROYAL Sovereign it takes about two
and Il half minutes to fire round, in |
the new gun minute and half is
sufficient. Made Of steel and wire, |
the gun weighs about forty-sevcn
tons, and, with the mounting, will
be protected by 4 powerful shield
on turntable, as in the
Centurion. Cordite ammunition is
to be used, the weight of the charge
being about $50 pounds. The prob
able life of the gun has not yet
been asccrtaincd, but it is so con-
structcd as to survive by many
rounds the 13.5-inch wcapon.-N.

 That the first two United States sena- tors from the state of Utah will be re- publican senators is beyond question, but whether it will remain a republican state is open to very serious doubt The republican party usually gets the wrong end of the poker when it rides new states into the union. The pocket borough states of the far west are a thorn in its side

ANOTHER CANDIDATE.

MT. Thomas H. Clark, secretary of the democratic state executive committee, is authority for the statement that Hon. H. c. Tompkins will shortly resign as chair man of the committee and will announce himself as a candidate for the United States senate to succeed Mir. Pugh. The candidates at present are Senator Pugh, Gov. W. c. Oates, Hon. Richard H. Clarke and Hon. Henry c. Tomplkins.
 Henry Clay Tompkins was born in Es- sex county. Virginia. September IA. 1S42. He was educated at the schools and acad- emies of Virginia. Early in 1862 he en- tered the Confederate service, enllsting in the Forty-fourth Virginia cavalry as a private.
 He remained private until March, 1864, when he joined the Twenty-second Virginia infantry. with the rank of lieu tenant, commanding Company r. He was captured at Sailors Creek just be- fore the surrender al Appomattox. Re- turning home he engaged in saw milling and farming and continued so employed until the fall of 1866. when he removed to Montgomery county, Alabama. He taught a neighborhood school in the southeastern portion of the county for two years, devoting his spare time to the study of law. He was admitted to the bar in February, 1S69, at Union Springs, in Bullock county, where he began the practice. He displayed from the start marked aptitude for the bar. He ad- vanced steadily, aiding materially by ex- tra professional labor as chairman of the democratic county executive com mittee in redeeming his county from the scalawags and carpet-baggers. While living al Union Springs he was elected lieutenant-colonel of the Second regiment of Alabama state troops. which position he held for several years In 1878 he re- ceived the distinguished compliment of Q nomination to the office of attorney-gen- eral of the state and was elected. He was reelected for two additional terms. The acceptance of this office compelled him to remove to Montgomery, and he formed there a partnership with the late Col Daniel S. Troy, one of the ablest and best known practitioners in the state. The firm, during it's continuance, did very large and paying business. On the retirement of Colonel Troy from business the firm became Tompkins & Troy, the junior member being MT. Alexander Troy. He was for many years member of the state executive committee of the democratic party, and in 1886 he was elected chairman of that committee, in which position he continued until the spring of 1892. when he resigned. He was reelected to that position in 1894. He was delegate-at-large to the national conventions of the democracy in 1884 and in 1888, and in each convention serven on important committees.

THE STATE HERALD.

 Subscription Price of the Daily Reduced to
 Six ($6) Dollars Per Annum.
 The State Herald management, appre- ciating the. very liberal encouragement extended to the paper by the people of Alabama and other states, and especially grateful to the business men of Birming- ham for their very liberal support during this season, hereby announces a reduc- ton of the subscription price of the Daily State Herald for 1896 to six ($6) dollars per annum, delivered free by mail or by carrier.
 Thus the State Herald becomes the only daily morning newspaper in Ala bama which meets the demand of mod ern journalism, placing itself in easy reach of every reading man, woman and child in the state.
 This reduction in subscription price does not mean a decline in the general excellence of the State Herald. It is the purpose of the management to steadily improve the paper in every department and make it invaluable as daily visitor to Alabama homes and business offices. In announcing this reduction the State Herald, which already enjoys the largest circulation of any newspaper in Alaba- ma, confidently expects a large increase in its number of readers, at home and abroad, because we realize that Ala bamians are an appreciative people, who always respond literally to the invitation of enterprise and progress.
 This reduction in price carries with it the necessity for a strictly cash system in the subscription department. There fore our patrons will be expected to pay monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or an- nually in advance, and will not become offended when cut from the list for delin- quency.
 Our rates for 1896 are as follows: Daily State Herald, per month. ....$ 50 Daily State Herald, per quarter. .... 50 Daily State Herald per annum .. 6 % Sunday State Herald alone, per an-
 mum. .......... .............. % Weekly State Herald. per annum.... 1 % Remittances can be made by express, postoffice money order or drafts at cur rent rate of exchange. Address,
