JUDGMENT FOR SMITH.
Sued ne Commissioners Of lincoln County
for Tar Roll Claim.

o"ed me commissioners Of lincoln County
Ior Tar Roll Claim.
CHANDLER, May 3.-The Publisist
says The case Of @. A. Smith vs.. The
Board Of County Commissioners OF Lin
coin county vas tried by jury Mon
day night and a verdict for s24O rer
dered in favor OF plaintiff. In this
case the plaintiff fled a claim for $500
for making out the tax roll for 1897,
which was disallowed by the board,
no allowance in any sum being made.
The plaintiff appealed TO the district
court and jury trial was had. No
evidence was introduced by the de
fense. Two witnesses for the plaintiff
testified that the reasonable value of
the services in making out the tax roll
was $500. One witness testified that
1t was worth 5000. The court instruct
ed the jury that under the law plain
tiff was entitled to recover the reason
able value Of his services in making
out the tax roll in sum not to exceed
$500, the board not having allowed
anything, and that under the evidence
in this case their verdict could not be
less than $500 nor more than $500.
The jury returned verdict of S240
for plaintiff. In this case the court
holds, we understand, that il the
board had heard evidence and upon
consideration of the same had deter
mined the reasonable value OF the ser
vices and allowed the claim in such an
amount, their action could not have
been reviewed by the district court on
appeal. but as no such action was
taken by the board, the plaintiff had a
right to trial of the question of the
reasonable value of his services in the
district court on appeal.

The thiekest armor on American
warships is the eighteen-inch armor on
the barbettes and the waterline belts
of the battleships of the Indiana class.
The main battery guns in the United
states navy are all breech-loAding
rifles of four, FIVE, six, eight, ten,
twelve and thirteen inch caliber.
Some OF the six inch anC all the four
md five inch are of the rapid fire kind.
rhe guns Of the secondary battery are
one, three, six and twelve Founders,
rapid Ere and machine guns OF several
types, using musket bullets.
The boarding pike has been abol-
shed, but cutlasses are retained. Yes
sells may yet be carried by boarding,
specially when at close quarters, as in
ramming. Machine guns are deadly
on boarders.
A searehlight may defeat its purpose
by revealing the position of the ship
using 1t. Besides, searchlights are
good targets for small rapid fire aud
machine guns and thus may be quickly
put out Of action.
Very few Of the guns in any ships
are protected by much, IL any armor.
The old rule that the ship whose men
stand to their guns the longer is the
one that will win is true as ever
When a warship goes into action
she either leaves all except one or two
OF her boats on the shore or drops

cause they would probably be de
stroyed ten minutes after the firing

able prospects Of success. But IL Is
twenty years since anyone, outside OF
the marine hospital service, has had
regular annual practice in yellow
fever, and a large majority OF the pro.
fession in that region were little more
than boys in 1878. Who can say with
authority, what we now hear said so
airily on every hand, that one who has
had yellow fever in any Of our gulf
states is necessarily immune in Cuba?
I'VE do not doubt that hundreds Of
such persons have visited Havana or
other Cuban cities and escaped with.
out an attack. But what does that
prove? General Fitzhugh Lee, who
never had the yellow fever anywhere,
has spent three years in Havana, and
yet has gone unscathed. Every body
does not have yellow fever because he
enters and remains in a city while that
disease is prevalent. There is no rule
about IL, just as there Is no exact in
formation as TO the origin and cause
In all these respects It is a mystery.
What we do know is that twenty-five
years ago, when yellow fever had for
more than half century visited New
Orleans with practically unfailing
regularity every summer, and when
the local faculty had as constant a
practice in that as any other disease,
the leading experts in the dread enc.
my-such men as Holt, Chopin,
Brickett, Bruins, Holcomb, Mercler,
and dozen others we could name--
did not believe that an attack OF yell
low fever in New Orleans constituted
a guarantee, or in other words, ope-
rated sure Immunity in Havana, Vera
Cruz or Rio. AS a matter Of fact, such
statistics as they could gather seemed
to argue the contrary. Certainly they
had no statistics to prove the theory
we are now discussing
We do not seek in this to cause any
alarm. The fact is that we do at all
sympathize in the terror felt by the
general public with regard to yellow
fever. II seems to us most senseless
and puerile emotion, not warranted
by facts or justified by reason. II is
our belief that under proper sanitary
conditions, with skillful and exper.
fenced medical supervision, our ar.
mics can go to Cuba as safely as they
could TO Florida. Yellow fever is not
by any means the most dangerous dis.
ease they may encounter there. Small.
pox, tdysentery, and typhus, for in
stance, wait upon all who neglect the
indispensable practices OF health.
Men who sleep on the ground, drink
unwholesome water, eat vicious food,
and go without protection against the
climate and the weather, will die in
Cuba in much larger numbers and
with far greater certainty than at the
hands of yellow fever.
The point we especially wish TO
make, however, is that the authori.
ties will seriously err by proceeding
in spirit of false security. 1t seems
to us infinitely wiser to treat yellow
fever as a probability, and at the same
time to divest 1t Of its extravagant and
ridiculous attributes of terror.
