FIRST SHOT OF THE WAR.
Fired by the Cadets Of tho South Carolina
Military Academy.

Military Academy.
The first shot in the late war was fired
by the cadets Of the South Carolina Mil
itary academy, which occupies spacious
and formidable looking building called
the Citadel, which was originally con-
structed for an arsenal Tho organiza-
ton and curriculum are similar to those
Of the United States academy at West
Point. After the ordinance of secession
was adopted tho cadets were ordered to
report for guard duty and were manning
o battery on Morris island, when, ON
Jan. 0, 1861, the Star Of the West at
tempted to enter the harbor with sup
plies and re-enforcements for Fort SUM
ter. Tho impulsive boys took the re-
sponsibility Of driving her back, firing
shot across her bows to give warming
The steamer Immediately ran up the
United States flag and increased her
speed. The shots fell thick and fast
around her, and when one struck her in
the stern the commander thought 1t
prudent to retreat and turned his vessel
seaward. The cadets of this institution
believe that act entities them to the
homage Of the south, and the prestige
thus acquired has made them tho objects
of envy throughout that whole section.

Those useless public functionaries, the
Lay Judges, of the Court OF Common
Pleas, have decided not to go out OF ex-
istence without making another fight for
life. Proceedings have been instituted in
Essex County to test the constitutionality
of the law passed last Winter which dis
penses with their services after the 1st OF
December next, and the papers served in
the case set forth the novel and striking
idea that because the Lay Judges were
originally appointed in 1928, "continued
to exist when New Jersey became free
and Independent State aud have been
kept along ever since. they ought to go
on untouched by hostile legislation fol-
ever. But the Supreme Court, VIC sus-
poet, will make short work with that ar
gument. The new Naturalization Law,
il is said, is also to be attacked on the
ground OF unconstitutionality. - Morris.

BIRDS LIKE TO TRAVEL.

Tho Reason They Annually Leave North
ern Chimes and Fly South.
Why do the birds fit southwark each
autumn and return again with every
spring? No one knows, but science, in
the person of Professor Wang, the emil
nent Austrian ornithologist, has just dis
closed that the usual fippant answer to
this question, Because they like to
travel, ;" is not far out of the way, after
all
In lecture that Professor Wang re-
Gently delivered at Vienna he gave some
extremely interesting details regarding
the migrations OF birds, all of which
migrations resemble one another i'll two
respects: They follow the most direct
line southwark, and are made with al
most incredible rapidity. Numerous OBJ
servations have been made at Helgo-
land, which is the principal hating
place of birds of passage from northern
countries, and Of Egypt, which is the
winter homo of many, and these obser-
vations have established some facts hith-
erto unknown. Tho bluebirds traverse
the 400 nautical miles which separate
Egypt from Helgoland in single night,
which is at the rate of more than 40
geographical miles per hour. Tho swal-
lows speed is over ~ miles per min
ute, or nearly three times that Of the
fastest railway train. Even the younger
birds, 9 or s weeks old, accompany the
others in their journey.
Professor Wang asks himself what is
the impulse which causes tho birds. aft
er the brooding and melting season is
over, to quit our nothern climate He
does not think it is fear of cold--for
many species quito as delicate as those
which migrate southwark easily with
stand the rigors of the winter-bnt that
they have an irresistible humor for
travelling. This is his idea of tho fact,
but he can give no explanation.

lists. We all know about the impene-
trable aamor plate and the irresisti-
be long range and rapid fire artillery
In use in the navy, and now there Is
another interesting feature in the de-
Tartmcnt OF small arms for the land
forces. A test Of the Krag-Jorgensen
rifle, made at Fort Leavenworth re-
Gently in public, proved THAT at a dis
lance OF 1000 yards a bullet bored
through a target Of solid oak nearly
three feet thick, without being mis-
shapen, and at 1000 yards a similar
bullet penetrated a steel plate an inch
thick. AT 1900 yards a human cad
aver and "a inches of oak were pierced
through. The capacity of the XII.
missile for making "cadavers' to or
der out of raw material, while you
wait, Is thus clearly demonstrated. II
any one wants any more practical and
personal demonstration, all he has to
do is to get up a war with Uncle Sam
and he will doubtless get all he wants
and more. But the chances are that
these little episodes will cause war to
be admired from a distance and avoid
ed as an amusement In future. They
are the true peace-makers.

heard Of the imprisonment of ex-Queen
L~iliuokalani, Of Hawaii, the matter is
not one In which Great Britain can In
terfere, nor are there any grounds on
which she can base a representation on
the subject. This means that Lii is
down. and there's nothing for England
in taking her part. In the meantime,

ADVANCING THE PRICE OF MEAT

The fact THAT within the past two
months there has been a material ad'
vance in the price of meat and a fur
Their increase Is threatened, is a mat
ter OF vital interest to almost every
household in the land. An addition
Of three or four cents a pound to the
price Of meat means for many families
a considerable increase In the cost of
living, while to others 1t mean the
exclusion of meat from their table OF
Its use only occasionally. The aggre-
gate addition to THE living expenses
of the whole people from such an ad-
vance in meat Is very large. The mat
ter Is, therefore, manifestly of much
Importance, broadly considered, as to
warrant am Inquiry as to its causes.
There Is a belief that the advance in
the price Of meat is not wholly due to
natural conditions.
That there is q reduced supply is
shown by the best available statistics,
but 1t Is Thought met to be so great as
to warrant the large increase in price.
1t is estimated that there are about
2,0OO,0 900 less beef CATTLE and 5000, 0Oc
less sheep IN the country now than a
year ago. the reduction in the former
being about 0 IA per cent and in the
latter about 10 per cent. The advance
in the price Of meat is from Is to 25
per cent, which is out Of proportion to
the reduced supply. 1t is alleged that
theirs is a beef trust whose mandpula-
lions are responsible for the excessive
advance. and 1t is quite possible there
is ground for this charge. The cattle
raisers say itlunt such q combination
exists. and THAT 1t is getting all the
benefit from the advance. 1t is easy 10
understand that the great packers
might unite under existing conditions
TO force up prices. for It is rarely that
they have SO Favorable an opportunity
TO exact tribute from the meat con-
sumers of the country. AT any rate 1t
appears to be the impression at Wash
ingbon that there Is something of this
kind and the secretary of agriculture
has instructed the chief OF the bureau
OF animal industry 10 obtain data re-
garding the supply and prices of cattle
at the leading packing points for the
first three months of the present year,
from which It may be determined how
far the Increased price of meat is 10 be
ascribed to a diminished supply.
Agents OF the bureau are also to make
thorough inquiry as 10 whether there
Is any combination for putting up the
price OF beef products while putting
down the per capita price of cattle.
The Investigation thus ordered is time,
~ and win probably be productive of
good results. II there as a cattle trust
it win be wen for bhe people to know
1t,
One effect of the advance in the price
OF meat will probably be 20 induce the
farmers OF the country to raise more
cattle and sheep than before. though
OF course this will depend upon wheth-
er the advance is maintained. AT this
season OF the year the consumption Of
fails OFF and the reduction win be
much greater than usual because OF the
Increase IN price. 80 THAT tt is possible
me advance will not he long main
