j. b. Perkins of this city has invent
ed what he calls the klondike shovel
The invention consists of a detachable
handle for the ordinary impliment.
The advantage of the new article oyer
the old style is In the fact that it will
not be necessary for the prospector to
pack u shovel handle as one can be
readily lmprovised wherever an ordi.

Of hinged strap which forms q socket
for the handle, that is, at the same

is cumbersome as we'll as heavy in the
ordinary pack. The socket clamp will
enable the prOspector to make y per-
feet handle with pocket knife from q
pole or branch of 3 tree. This rev

C. Commodore Schley's Reconnais

The following account Of the first

perhaps the only authentic report
published. The Scientific Ameri-
can is areliable authority, and will
never give space to anything but
that which is absolutely true:
Undoubtedly the chief center of
interests in4the spanish-American
war lies just at present Ia the har-
bor of Santiago Gle Cuba, and judg-
Ing from present indications, this
IL likely to be the seat OF the most
active and important operations
for some time to come. The rum

upp-to use the pet phrase of the
day-by our feet were confirmed
by an official dispatch from Com

identified on Sunday, May %, by
the unprotected cruiser "Marble-
head" which acting under the or
der Of Commodore schley, ran In
close to the MORO Castle, and
steamed the entrance to the liar-

rapid-fire guns, and the "Iowan
brought to bear four Pinch and
eight 8-inch rifles. The conflict
was marked as far as our ships
were concerned by complete ab-
senee of casualties, not a single
shell or fragment Of shell, as far as
can be learned, having reached the
attacking fleet, for no damage was
done to the ships beyond what was
due to the eoncussion of the heavy
guns.
Owing TO the long range at which
the bombardment was carried on,
it was impossible to determi Inc
with any accuracy the amount Of
damage inflicted on the forts or on
the flagship, but it is certain that
the former suffered severely and it
is probable that the flagship sus-
tanned more or less serious dam
age. Whenever the large 12 and
l3-inch shells landed against the
masonry Of Moro Castle, It could
be7seen that huge masses of debris
were thrown high in the air, and
from the fact that Moro and two
other forts were silenced, it seems
probable that most of their guns
were disnn0nnted or otherwise dis
abled. The reconnaissance had the
desired result OF revealing the
strength of the defense and 1ocat-
Ing the position of the masked bat
teries which 1t is known had been
recently erected.
There can be no question as to
the enormous natural strength of
the position. The narrow channel
and the lofty hills commanding it
on either side make it an ideal
harbor for defense and an extreme
~ difficult position to reduce from
the sea. Tt is evident that the en-
trance is commanded by powerful
guns of the modern type, and un-
less the Spaniards have been as
criminally negligent at Santiago
as they were at Manila, it will be
for a hostile fleet to
reach the Inner tlarbor without
first removing or exploding the
mines which have been placed
across the channel.
The dispatches mention the fact
that the "NeW Orleans proved to
be very effective in this long range
lighting, because her guns were
using smokeless powder. Her gun-
: 1
ners were able to watch the effect |
of every shot, and when once they |
nad found the range, they were
able to pour in a deadly fire with
great rapidity. The Spanish forces
appear to be well supplied with
,he new powder, and its use assists
greatly in the concealment OF gun
positions, the slight haze or mist
accompanying It's discharge being
quickly dissipated. 1t is safe to
,ay that the complete equipment
flour ships with snlokeless powder
will be one OF the many indirect
benefits conferred by the present
var.
