An inventor has recently patented
a ''pocket protector" 1t is IA steel
spring that is sewed into II side OF
a pocket and presses the opening to-
gether. To the deep thinking man
who does his walking with head
down and his elbows just protruding
from his pockets, this device will not
be a long felt want. And there is
sufficient mystery as to the location
of ladies' pockets so that they will
not send the inventor boquets for his
display OF genius.

Military Training uf DiaZ's Son.

Capt. POrfirio Diaz, son of the pre-
sident of the repub bic, who has been
mpletipg his engineering course in
the offices of Messrs. Pearson & Son,
in London, is now following the pro-
gramme mapped out by his father on
the continent. From London he went
few days ago to St. Chamond, where
he examined the great arms factory,
and thence to Paris. After few days
in the gay republican capital he went
to Cberbourg, where, by courtesy of
the French government, he is nov ex-
aiming the works and defen. es of
that famous arsenal and port,
which as a military engineer the
young captain will be able to appre-
ciate. From Cherboug he will again
proceed to st. Chamond, where he will
meet Col. Mondrapon, who is commits
stoned by the Mexican government to
examine and test the improved Mon
dragon breech-loading rifed cannon
being manufactured at the great steel
works of ST. diamond, VIII ch furn sh
the greater part of the artillery now
used in the Mexican army. 1t is I'M
derstood that Col. Moadrsgon and
Capt. Diaz will together also test a
number of cannon of the Bange type,
ordered from these works. 1t is prob
able that Capt. Diaz will return to
Mexico with Col. MoDdragon after the
military com ission has terminated its
duties in Europe.

Spanish Spy.

From private Information obtained
by Capt. F. V. Abbot in charge of the
works at Charleston, S. c.,
it is learned that Lieut.. j. G. SObral, a
naval attache of the Spanish legation
in Washington, was the agent who
made the recent secret inves-
tiga,ion of the coast defenses. Capt.
Abbot forwarded Sobral's name to
the war department., aad unless Sobral
can prove that the nvestgation was
conducted openly and not in secret
manner, demand wi be made for his
recall from this country. The officia s
have evidence against the attache. He
went about his WORK rats er mysterious
ly aud took boat over to Sullivan's
Island, where he peeped in on the for
tificatOns a yet unfinished.
Sobral will now have to prove that
he did not sneak in on the forts and
that he did not go to Fort Sumter and
register, as all visitors are required to
do, under an assumed name. The war
department has been after Captain
Abbot, to ascertain the name of the
emissary. An investigation at Wash
ing ton will follow at once.

Wasn't 1t Mean.

The men down at the fire depart
ment headquarters played a real mean
trick on the 'B Kid" last night.
They rubbed his black and tan terrier,
Dan" all over with limburger cheese
and then sent the dog upstairs to where
the kid was in bed. The dog, as usual
jumped in with his master, but some
how or other he did not stay there long.
There was a sudden and frantic waving
of arms, a series of blasts from pair
of powerful lungs, a long cOocatena-
ton of explosives in pretty much the
entire family of lndio-European family
of languages, and the dog went flying
out into the middle OF the room. The
Big Kid rose in his wrath and
thre itened to make prime article of
sausage of the first man he could de-
tect misusing his dog in that way.
Then he put the animal under the hose
and spent a pleasant half hour soapng
and cleaning and pertaining that pup.

Cuba'S Future.

to be promptly refused by the in
