Pointer For Allison.

more, of Arkansas, today filed the

exclusively. as to the regulation of the
propriety or discretion of their con-
duct. under the direction and control
of the executive department of the

the effect of detracting from the dig

THE DEADLY FLUID.
Two Rhode Island Farmers KILLED
BY an Electric Wire-A CHASTITY
Warming.

PROVIDENCE. R. L. Feb. 26.-Jesse
F. lacey. aged 81, and his son Jesse,
aged Ii, were shocked to death by cleo
tricity in their own door yard in the
village of Thornton last evening. The
Taoeys were engaged in getting a car
rage out of a shed yard, and having
run their vehicle to the street, they
started to remove wire that hung
from nearby pole into the barn
across a gateway. The elder Tacey
seized the wire and a $500 volt current
killed him instantly. Young Taoey
rushed to his fathers assistance and
the current was at once communicated
to him, and he too reeled over and died
before assistance arrived. Both men
had taken hold of the loose end of a
dead telephone or telegraph wire,
which was crossed a half mile awav
with the feed wire of the electric light
ing company.

TEST OF SHELLS.
Surprising Results s.the Proving
q, Ground.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-surprising
results were. obtained at a test of
shells at the Indian Head proving
ground yesterday, and if these shall
be confirmed by further experiments,
our navy, which already possesses the
best arnor plate in the world, will
have by far the best armor-penetrat-
ing shells. and both of American in
vention. What was done yesterday at
the proving grounds was to fire a cast
steel shell of six-inchl calibre entirely
through a seven-inch harveyized
nickle steel plate, through the heavy
oak backing and twelve feet into the
bank of clay behind. This perform
ance never has been equalled by any
projectile of like calibre in the world
The naval experts are much pleased
with the test. They say that these
cast steel shells can be made for much
less than the expensive forged steel
armor-piercing shells. that they can be
made much more quickly and that they
appear to be superior in every respect.

ton. 1t was as follows:

MY Dear Commander-It is with the
deepest regret that we are compelled,
after nine and one-haf years faithful
service as officers in the ranks of the
Salvation Army in America, to here
with tender you our designations, our
reasons being in brief that we believe

Major Glenn said: 81 spent yester-
day evening with Ballington Booth,
remaining with him until nearly mid
night. When I came home my wife
and L. for many sleepless hours, dis
cussed the situation. We decided that
our only course was to tender our res
ignations. feeling as we do, we can
not longer remain in the Army. Bal
lington Booth was in no way resDon-
sible for our action. He did not even
know that we contemplated 1t. We
have no plans for the future. If our
late commander engages in any evan

President zelaya cannot hope for aid
from the Conservatives, the richest
most influential people in the coun
try. 1t is now known some of the
leading military officers adhere to that
party. Conservative leaders have been
growing suspicious of Zelaya, whose
desire to assume dictatorship has
been apparent, although denied by his
friends. All the influence of the high
est social classes is thrown against
Zelaya.
