 Given a perfect plate by the repro ductive processes of photographic work, counterfeiters will have no trou- ble m securing the paper they need, and all paper money will then become q hopeless tangle of genuine and spurious notes. There will be no need then of bankers conventions. The efforts to fasten the national bank system upcn the county forever will than drop away, for a monopoly of note issues will then be impossible.
 However, let speeulations over the subject await the skill that is still lack ing. No one believes it will long be lacking, but until then the snug MT. Mckinley and the dead and gone Hanna can talk incessantly about keeping ev- cry dollar of the currency as good as any other dollar of it, and even then they can keep up their chatter, for all paper dollars will be hopelessly equal ized by a flood of notes that congress did not authorize.

Alabama Cotton Mills.

The editor of the Eufaula Times is, if not 9 bloated bondholder, a stock holder at least in the Eufaula cotton mills, and he casually mentions the payment of another per cent. dividend by thfis mills It came to him in the shape of futtering piece of paper, to use his own words, in which the officers of tine mills beg a certain bank to pay to the aforesaid editor a certain sum of money, beng dividend No. r. There is no mention Of a depression in the cot ton trade, of cuts in the wages of oper- speaking.
 The dividend really means that he mills have been fin operation seventeen half years, and only once in that time have they faled to divide each six months a dividend of per cent. among the stockholders. At the one excep- tional time there was a dividend of per cent. In eight years and half the mills have returned to the stock holders 67 per cent, besides accumulat- ing a very comfortable sum for renew als or extensions.
 "Eufaulas industries" says the Times, ''pay, and Eufaula people are hopeful and bright" It believes that year of great promise is before the state. and it slyly says in conclusion that a few dividends now and then greatly promote the good feeling now prevailing.

At Sea on Maskat.

A funny scene occurred many years
ago in congress. A present of Arabian
horses. a sword, etc., arrived from the
imam of Maskat for President Adams
A western member with some heat
moved that the gift should be sent
back, with letter from congress, in
forming the ruler of Maskat that the
president of the United States was no
king, but the servant of the people, and
was not permitted to give or receive
presents.
Another member rose. "Such let
ter, Mr.. Speaker, he said, "can easily
be written. But where is it to be sent?
Where is Maskat?''
There was no response. Apparently
not member Of the house was prepared
to answer, nor could Maskat then be
found in any atlas published in this
country 1t was found at last on a Ger
man map. A civil answer was returned,
and the geographers made haste to in
sert Maskat in the next edition of their

ARMY AND NAVY GUNS.
A Vast Difference IN the Number of Men
Required to Handle Them.

A Vast Difference IN the Number of Men
Required to Handle Them.
The number of men required to man
naval guns Of the British, French, Ger
man and American navIes is about the
same, although the French are under
stood to have more men as rule for
some of the larger guns.
For the 4 inch and inch all services
require four men to work each piece :;
for the 6 inch, six men are needed, and
for the 10, IL and ID inch the same
number.
AS nearly all our s, 10, 10 and IS
INCH guns are used in pairs and mount
ed i'll turrets the IL men working them
are protected by heavy plates of steel
For the little l Founders three men are
necessary to work them rapidly, and
for the 3 Founders and Founders four
men are assigned and for the HOtchkiss
three men.
Treble the number of men seem to be
required to work the same caliber of
guns in orr coast defense system, al
though there is no special reason for
this, unless it be due to the fact that
the army guns are mounted on disap-
pearing carriages and are not provided
with turrets, which naturally limits the
space of the operators. An army s inch
gun takes ID men to work it; a 10 inch
gun requires Is men, and IL inch
gun, the largest now constructed by the
army, calls for q men.
1t will be seen, therefore, that a Is
inch naval gun is operated by six men,
while an army gun of one inch less cali
Der calls for 81 men. The navy gun can
be fired just AS rapidly with its six men
as the army gun can be fred with it's
larger number.-Boston Herald

THE AMERICAN SAILOR.
Jacky Has Become Specialist and Credit
to the Navy.


to the Navy.
Jacky, who used to be more sailor
than gunner, is now more gunner than
sailor just in proportion as be has
ceased to be part Of the great engine
on which he lives, so he has come more
and more into the control of it, and as
the cardinal purpose of a warship is to
hit things with her projectiles Jacky
has become a specialist in getting that
work out Of her. He does it in two
places-at the guns and at the engines
Correctly pointed guns are of no use
unless the platform on which they rest
is put III proper relation to the thing to
be hit and kept there. EqualIyit is use
less to get the ship into proper place
unless the guns are correctly pointed.
Men who can do either of these things
must have natural capacities and be sus-
ceptlble to education, and only men of
this sort are eligible for our navy.
Accordingly the "beach comber," or
the rock scorpion, or any other va
riety of that ruck of marine refuse
which drifts around the great maritime
ports and ships in any craft where
grub is plenty and work light, no
longer sings his hammock on Uncle
Sam S berth deck, as he used to do, to
the shame of the service, in years gone
by. Nor can the tramp nor the iailbird
nor even the incorrigible black sheep of
the family thus be provided for, to the
relief OF constables and long suffering
relatives. No man or boy can now pass
a United States laval recruiting officer
unless he is clean, healthy, honest,
young, strong and intelligent, nor can
he afterward get that advancement,
which is certainly open to him without
fear or favor, unless he continues to
show aptitude and ability.-Park Ben
