An electric gun is the latest contribu-
tion to novelties in artillery. 1t is the
invention Of A. S. Krotz of Springfield,
Ohio, and Is thus described: 1T is sim
ply a brass tube, open at both ends,
around which is wrapped insulated
wire in a series of helices from one
end to the other. An electric CURRENT
passed into the helices from one end
of the tube and out at the other end
will cause iron balls or projectiles
brought near to the entrance end of
the tube to become temporary mag
hjets, arranged with positive and mega
tive poles, on lines parallel with the
length Of tube and with soft iron wires
running lengthwise on the tube and on
the outside of the helices The balls
are attracted by the lines of force ahead
of them, giving the balls an ever in
creasing impetus as they pass along
the tube. The gun is light, cannot ex-
plode and Is extremely rapid in ac-
tion.

The special tribunal which has been

tended to supersede the jurisdiction of
the ordinary tribunals, and will only
meet upon the demand Of the general

The IunenburR Cases.

Up to the present time Congress has
appropriated $4,000 for the Chickamau-

the individual States have expended
nearly a like amount. The park commits
sioners have purchased the entire battle
field OF Chickamauga, embracing fifteen
square miles The main drive Of the park
is twenty miles In length. constructed on
a right-of fifty feet wide.
All the lines of battle have been as
certained and marked with tablets. The
national commission has aided twenty
four State commissioners in locating
positions Of regiments and batteries
from the States they represented. AL
ready there are hundreds of monuments
and granite markers on the field; also,
guns of the same patterns used during
the combat. or the latter about three
hundred have been mounted and placed
in position. Eight pyramidal monuments,
each ten feet high. constructed of eight
inch shells, have been erected as markers
upon the spot where brigade command

The recent examinations Of applicants
at Annapolis showed upward Of 80 per
cent. of failures. and of the 107 young
men who reported not over forty-rVe
were admitted This great number Of re-
iections is due to the poor scholarship
Of the boys. Instead OF having $50 ca
diets. including two classes which have
graduated and are now at sea on cruisers,
the academy's corps will be greatly re-
duced this term, and the fun battalion
will not consist of possibly more than
25O. The sem-annual examination in
January will still further diminish IT,,
so that the country will lose the oppor-
tunity Of educating at least 100 men at
very little additional expense
Except for places created by failures
and unexpected designations all vacancies
at the academy can be anticipated a
year. as they are at West Point. The Bal
timore Sun says that Commodore Mat
thews. who Is drawing up a report set
ting forth the result of his recent inves-
legations, will make some startling dis
closures regarding the academy.

The task which the advocates OF the
free coinage Of silver have set for them
selves IL one which viii never be per-
formed. Free silver is not as popular
as II was twelve months ago. DISCUSSION
has developed weakness rather Una"
strength. one OF the most striking de-
yelopments of the day is the action on
Tuesday last OF the Democratic STATE
Executive Committee OF Illinois. mat
committee was authorized, We take H.
Ia sneak for the unterrified Democracy
OF the Hoosier State, and did speak Win

dates the action Of the Springfield coh-
yentlon OF June last. in favor oil the ireV
coinage of silver. and denies that tha'
convention voiced the views or the III
nols Democracy. There was no attempt
TO dodge the question on the part OF the
State Executive Committee, but THIS pouy
declared emphatically against the Tree
and unlimited coinage Of silver-thereDy
aligning Illinois with New England Ne"
York, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Mary
land, etc, etc.
The fact is, that free sllyerism cannot
live by what 1t feeds on" Nor can the
Democratic party afford to identity itseii
with a passing issue, If issue that may
be styled which fails to command the
support of so many of the best men In
the Democratic party. The people can
not but be brought to a renewed study
and consideration of the subject wheh
they find thousands of their trusted lead
ers positively refusing to stand up ana
be counted" on the side Of free silver.
As to Illinois. we may say that though
that State is not reliably Democratic, 1t
contains within its borders many OF the
truest and best Democrats in the Union
men who are fit to lead any party. The
great city of Chicago exercises a wonder
full influence upon the opinions and action
of the ".Hoosiers." That city has within
its borders a large number Of financial
experts and political students. and no
question can arise which they cannot dis
cuss intelligently.
We repeat. then. that we are disposed
to attach no little importance to the
utterances and the action of the sturdy
Democracy Of Illinois.

September Sunshine.
Harper's BaZar)


The day OF the blossom is over, the
clematis twines its wreath:
The lace-iiower waves in the meadow, the
corn is ripe in the sheath;
Sweet in the air is the scent of the vine,
the orchard bends with its load:
Armies, with banners, in SERTED racks,
march upon every road.
GOlden-rod. sumac, and aster are guard
ing each wayside pass,
And the honeyed watt of the aftermath
drifts from the springlng grass.
LaZily homeward wings the bee when his
spells are gathered in;
The tree-toad hides in the shadOwy wood,
the lilies that toll nor spin.
That listen all night TO the crickets and
sway in the moonlit dew.
Stand taper and tall In the sunshine the
beautiful, long day through.
Fair is the royal September, and rich is
the wine outpOured,
In these hours of bllthe fulhlment at Ma
lures bounteous board
For the hour of the blossom Is over, the
hour of the bud in blow,
And here is the crown of the summer, ere
yet It's her time to so,
With the lace-fiowpr white on the mea-
dow. the clematis twining its wreath,
Purple the grape in the cluster, and
ripened the corn in the sheath.
