ARMY AND NAVY.

The establishment of large military post at
some point on Puget Sound opposite the British
naval station at Vancouver is now under con-
sideration by the War Department, and will be
undertaken within the next few months. Gen.
Merritt has come to Washington ut tho direc-
ton of Secretary Lamont to consult with the
authorities regarding the most advantageous
locality for the post. Congress has authorized
the establishment of the post but go far has
made no appropriation for the erection of
buildings An examination of the various
points suitable for a station has been conducted
by Board, of which Gen. Merritt is President.
One of the principal arguments in favor of the
post is the fact that tho Government has a
great naval dry dock which is not defended
from land attack.
Secretary Lamont sent to the House last
week additional estimates of appropriation of
S447 030 for armament of Notifications, and
s., 800 for the Watervliet Arsenal. The esti-
mates for Notifications are as follows: To man
ufactnrc about % 3 2-l0-inch steel field guns

wagons for the equipment of the same, S61,-
600; for 10000 rounds of steel shrapneI, $780,
600; for the purchase and man U facture of carri-
ages for mounting seacoast guns of 8, 10 and
I2 inch calibers, S125. 900; for steel breech-
loading rifles siege. Of five inch, 30,240; for
steel breech- loading rifled howitZers, siege, Of
seven inch, $50, $40; for carriages for the same
including inn ements and equipments, S97, lao !;
for steel breech-loading mortars OF seven inch,

Tobacco in the majority of cases deadens the
feelings. You may not think tobacco hurts
you, but how are you ever going to tell how
much better you would feel without it, unless
you follow the advice of Postmaster Holbrook:

There is question now to whether it is
polite for a man to laugh at his own funny
stories. Bill Nys always was solemn SIS an
owl when he was getting of his funniest tales,
but Chauncey Depew always laughs heartily at
any good joke-hs own or another man's-so
they say.
Spring coats must not have sleeves that
stand up nor any outside pockets, according to
taiIors.

Grenadines have forsaken their old de-

The challies this year are prettier than ever,
and quite as inexpensive. They make the
prettiest Of wrappers, teagowns. drcssing-sacks,
and house gowns for wear when Cool evenings
come in the Summer and Fall. One of the cuts,
SVPieu itoIH aNEdHiuS iu tHe LHUtsS H1Hse VONF-
nal, shows a most graceful house-iacket, which
could be prettily copied in a daintily-striped
or Powered chaIlie. To mako it most luxuri-
ously il should be siken lined-and that will
not be so very expensive, for one can get some
silks rs low 80 cents yard. A pretty gray
or tan-colored challie with fine Persian pat
tern of pale-greens and pinks and a narrow
pink satin stripe through it would be very
dainty lined with pink silk and fastened across
with a pink cord. Besides the ordinary flower
ed challies. the satin striped and Persian
patterns there crinkled challies, Dresden
challies and open-work challies-so that the
challie being SO very dainty bids fair to be a
popular material for this year. Railways looks
pretty with silk aud lace aud ribbons for trim
ming.

SOLDIERS, HOMES.

The Inspector General, after an inspection
of the several branches of the National Home
for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers, sent a report
to the House last week. The financial affairs
are found to be in a satisfactory condition, n
considerable surplus remaining at the end Of
the year. The average number of members
cared for during the past year was 16,477,
which, the report says. nearly equals the COM
bined strength of our infantry and artillery.
Tho number Of persons cared for las increased
at the average rate of 1902 per year. and tho in
situations are in consequence greatly over
crowded. Many of the inmates at the time of
inspection were sleeping on floors. in attics
and Easements, aud places not originally in
tended for sleeping purposes. system of out
door relief is recommended, the cost of such re-
lief not to exceed tho amount expended upon
actual inmates of the institutions.

CHIT OF THE CORRIDORS.


Senator Warren, Of Wyoming, gave utterance
the other day TO some culogistic sentences con-
ecrning the hospitality and honor or Western
ers. He said 81 would regard it as personal
insult il ! went 10 house on any ranch aud

the average Western man on such an occasion
would be TO break the door down. 1t would

The new flag to be officially inaugurated in
the Army and Navy next Fourth of July will
have slightly different arrangement of the
stars in order to add new one for Utah. Secre-
tary Lamont and Secretary Herbert have agreed
upon a design which arranges the stars in six
rows, the first, third and fifth having eight
stars, and the second, fourth and sixth having
seventh all As. AS new States come into the
Union no new design will be needed, as stars can
be added to the second and fourth and sixth
rows, so probably this design is fixed for
long Time. We only have three moro Territories,
anyway-OklahOma, Arizona and New Mexico.
Alaska, the Indian Territory and the District
of Columbia are not on the path to Statehood.
A caulifower. which Mark Twain says is "a
cabbage with college education" and is like
wise very good whether its college education
has improved it or not. every person must de-
eide for himself. A good way to prepare it is
to wash it we'll and then place it, flower down,
in a deep bowl filed with salt water. Let
it stand for two or three hours, and then shake
it free from the cold water, tie it in a muslin
bag, and put it in pot of boiling water. Let
il cook for 40 minutes. Place it in deep vege-
tablc-dish, 6owor-side up, aud cover with a
sauce made by Dreaming two tabespoonfuls of
flower into one of butter, and stirring slowly
into this pint of milk allowing it to cook
until it is the consistency of thick cream In
this manner you can prepare most delicious
dish for all who like caulifower.

One of the pet fancies for Spring frocks is to
have vest of white silk braided with the
dress color and perhaps bit Of metallic thread
for glinting. Gray and tan dresses are especi-

1t has announced that the State Tenn

Taylor of Chicago, TO come 10 Kansas
and save the state from the growing
resubmission sentiment. Kansas has
about the same population of the city
Of Chicago. Chicago is one monster
aggregation Of saloons. Kansas under
any system would be a model temper
ance state. 1t is safe to say that We're
there no United States revenue tax on
liquors nor local license, but their sale
left open and free. there would be very
little drunkenness in Kansas. Its peo-
pie are too intelligent and self-respect-
ing. Upon the other hand Chicago is
filed with elements notorious for
drunkenness, as well as for every
species of crime. But still Kansas
must send to Chicago for temperance
orators. 1t is all hypOcritical and far
cical. Why don't these Prohibition
orators prove their worth and effective
ness, prove their honesty and sincerity
by saving their own people from a
wrong which never fettered or harmed
Kansas in any noticeable degree, even
in the days when saloons were legal?
