Sharp Shooting at Sea.

The accuracy of modern rihed guns is
one of the wonders of engineering. Two
experimental shots fired few years ago
at the same elevation from the same gun
fell within 80 yards of each other, after
traversng distance of IL miles. If a
modern rifle is laid upon the target, with
proper elevation and allowance for wind
age, 1t is safe to say the shot will find the
mark. The correct elevation of the gun
can only be determined if the distance of
the target is known, and the exact determ-
nation OF the distance of moving object
is problem that has worried the gunner
ever since the day when round shot was
first thrown from the sides of the wooden
fighting ship.
In the early days the determination of
the range was matter of guesswork.
The gunner assumed distance, elevated
his gun accordingly and watched the
course of the shot. lfit fell short he in
creased the elevation ndifit passed over
he decreased it. This was all very we'll
in day when the guns were too feeble to
do much execution, except at close range,
and few dozen shots thrown away
made little impression upon ships mag
azines. With the advent of modern ord
nance, however, with its Cotton guns
and costly charges, the necessity of accur-
ate fire became imperative, and ordnance
experts set about devising some scientific
method of finding the range at sea. The
earliest and best known device OF the kind
was the invention of Lieut.. Fiske of the
United States navy, which has been in
stalled on many Of our ships and is wide.
ly in use in the various navies of the
world.
The Fiske range.fnder is based upon
the well-known principles of land survey

Gardner Upham of Windham celebrated
his Tooth birthday May I'd. Mr.. Upham
is remarkably well preserved. He has
been farmer most Of his life, has held
various town Offices and has always
been busy man. When young man
he worked at the brickmaker's trade in
Boston summers, making the journey on
foot with his pack upon his back. He
belonged to the Boston militia and saw
Lafayette in 1914. His memory is re-
markably clear and he is well read in the
affairs of the world.
Nearly $4,000 has been raised by the
Congregational church at Brattleboro,
for erecting parsonage. The society
has never owned a parsonage, and is to
be congratulated upon the ready response
made to the call at this time.

"Remember the Malne.r

Rev. A. ]. Hough, pastor of the Meth
odist church at White River Junction,
and well-known throughout the length
and breadth of the Green Mountain state,
closed a patriotic discourse on May 1
with the following original poem:
The nation may press to the goal of her
glory,
Her flag lifted high without shadow or
stain,
And names of renown still illumine her story,
But she will remember the men ofthe Maine.
Her cheer ringing clear for the brave who are
keeping
Old Glory above the red standard of Spain,
Ungratefu she is not to those who are Sleep
ing,
And she will remember the men Of the
Maine.
The nation bowed low with the sense of be-
reavement
Is glad that her dead have not persisted in
vain,
And high on the scroll of her grandest
achievement
Sh all shine the white names of men OF the
the Maine.
This morning the tongue of the whole world
is voicing
Americas triumph of valor and brain,
But, sadly, amidst the foodtide of rejoicing
We tenderlv greet them-the men OF the
Maine.

Photographs of the War.

Photographic illustrations of events
and scenes in the war this country is
waging are as valuable as they are rare.
The Boston Sunday Journal is conspic-
uous among newspapers inits using these
expensive illustrations in its Illustrated
Weekly, the bigh-class publication given
free with the Boston Sunday Journal.
These pictures, which DIRE exact repro
auctions OF photographs, give knowl-
edge of the armies and navies and what
they are doing that can be obtained as
well in no other way. Particular atten.
ton is paid to the soldiers and sailors of
New England. The Boston Journals
Illustrated Weekly, together with the
New England Home Magazine, which is
also given free with the Sunday Journal,
saved, form an admirable pictorial his
tory of the war.

A WARMING NOTE.
It Won't Take the Reader
Long to Peruse This, and 1t
May Prevent q Heap OF
Tr0uhle.

One evening in December, 1896, 4 respected
resident of Sutton, in the county of Gale
donia, VT, was reading Montpelier paper.
There was nothing strange or peculiar about
this, for the lady was accustomed every
evening to post herself on the current topics
Of the day, but on this particular occasion
her eye struck paragraph which arrested
her attention and led to a train Of circum-
stances which it is the special object Of this
item to prevent occurring in this neighbour
hood or wherever this paper circulates.
Mrs. c. F. Brockway. for that Is the name
Of the lady referred to, completes the facts
mentioned in the above introduction as fol-
lows: II read the article second time, and
came to this conclusion If Doan's Kidney
Pills cure kidney complaint and the distress
ing complications arising from inactivity or
irritation Of those organs, why won't they
cure mea I made inquiry next day at the
nearest druggist and as he did not have
them wrote to Montpelier for them. They
were just what needed. was getting
along famously when ia grippe" Frustrated
me. When the attack abated somewhat,
severe kidney trouble set in, and had to
do something at once. My husband searched
Sutton for Doan's Kidney Pills and drove to
Lyndon for them, but was unsuccessful in
procuring them there. What I endured
before second supply reached me is hard
to describe. can only add to my high
opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills that am
confident had l known Of them when I first
found out I had kidney trouble I would
never have been as bad a. was. found

ing with the transit and engineers chain.
In surveying party come to broad
river whose width has to be determined,
a base line is measured along the bank,
and the angles which this line makes
with a mark on the opposite bank are
measured by the transit. Then, know
ing the length of the base line and the
two angles, the distance across the river
can be determined by trigonometry.
Applying this to the range-hnder,
base line is carefully measured between
two points near opposite ends OF the ship,
and over each point a rangefnder, an
swerng to the engineers transit, is per-
manently set up. If the telescopes OF the
two finders are simultaneously converg-
ed upon the same point on distant OBJ
ject (ship, fortress or city,, the observers
will be in possession of the trigonometrl.
cal data necessary to compute the dis
tance, namely, the base and the two base
angles.
In the din, hurry and slaughter of sea
fight, however, it would be difficult to
make the necessary calculations, as the
distance between the ships, and therefore
the observed angles, keep changing, and
in order to make the determination OF
the distance automatic, Lieut.. Fiske
placed his telescope in the circuit of a
Wheatstone bridge and caused their
change of position to record the distance
of the object on the graduated scale OF a
delicate galvanometer. All that was
now necessary was for the observers at
the two range-fnders to keep the cross
hairs OF the telescope upon the same point
Of the ship, and the electric current trans
lated las it were) the angles into distances
and recorded them by the movement of a
needle over an arc graduated into hun.
dreds and thousands of yards. One OF
these galvanometers is placed in the con-
ming tower and one at each of the princi-
pal gun stations.-[ Scientific American.

A terrific explosion which shook the
buildings for a mile in all directions &C.
Cured at the granite quarry owned by
]. w. Mcdonald & Co., located near
Websterville, last Wednesday noon and
which severely injured four workmen at
the quarry, one perhaps fatally. The
cause of the accident is not yet known,
still there was enough powder in the
building to have caused the damage and
it is probable that this is the direct cause
of the accident.
