There has been an alarming growth of
Mormonism in North and South Carroll
ma the past year or two, and the Nor

tough time. White farmers who band

district of the PROSECUTING elders, failed
Of conviction when arrested and brought
before the court, and now there is a
secret society formed for the express
purpose of making war upon these in
vaders from Utah. Serious charges
against the missionaries are freely
made, but still the work of conversion
goes on and some Of the prominent
people of both States have confessed
Mormonism openly.

The versatile Emperor William is
claiming credit for the invention of a
new war machine called "battle-line
destroyer" 1t is a sort of motor car
of thick steel, with portfolios for ma
chine guns, and in it are a dozen sol
diers, who are thus protected from the
enemy The machine is to charge right
down into the enemy's line, firing vol
ley after volley as it goes, and, Of
course, rendering cavalry unnecessary
1t will NOW down the foe as it charges
them, and a few dozen ought to be
sufficient to annihilate an entire army,
if not blown up or stopped by fallen
tree or ditch, and if the enemy pro-
vides easy roads for their approach.

Chicago is said to be a very wicked
city but it is recorded that the
Audubon Society has reached the
consciences of leading Chicago mil
liners, and at the fall opening
this year no song birds were perch
ed upon the hats displayed. The place
of the lovely little humming bird, the
blue bird and Of other feathered song
sters was occupied by the plumes of
owls, pheasants, eagles, birds of Para
disc, rifle birds, ostriches and chicken
heads. The chemist, too, has come to
the rescue of the songsters and has in
vented a method Of treating the feath-
ers of the birds above named which
will make them as beautiful as those
of the most delicate songsters, and an
excellent imitation of the aigrette of the
Florida heron has also been made.

The name of Eureka gas is given to
a new illuminant, expected to rival
acetylene. This gas, as described in
Invention, and originated by NJ. Hector
de Favi of Montefiascone, Italy, is OBJ
tanned as follows: Lime as pure as pos
sible is employed as a base, colophony
and calcium carbide being added-1,0 900
parts of the mixture ready for use con-
sisting Of 800 of quicklime, so of colo
phony and so of calcium carbide-and
there is said to be no liability of ex-
plosion by mixing with air; no heating
of water and no special burner is need
ed. One thousand parts of the mixture
give sixty litres of gas at a pressure
of thirty-five millimetres of water; and
the photometric intensity of the flame
is stated to 924 candle hours, while
the same amount of calcium carbide
employed singly would give only eight
cen candle hours Thus, it is asserted.
the new gas is 80 per cent. cheaper than
acetylene, or that at equal cost it will
give half as much more light.

THE PROPOSED POLTCE TNTFORN
vHIEF MCULLAGH SAYS HIS SUGGESTIONS
Do NOT CONFLICT WITH THE
MILITARY CODE.

The point has been raised that the now uniform
Police Department would conflict with the mill
tary code OF the State. which prohibits the use
OF military insignia BY any other body than the
National Guard. An impression has gone forth
that new uniform has been officially adopted
by the Police Commissioners and that all officers
will appear In this modified uniform at the next
inspection. This Is entirely wrong. The only
change made was that OF the uniform OF the CHIEF.

opinion add TO the efficiency of the Department
No new uniform has yet been adopted, and be-
