For the past week the Seventh Day

their services and the majority of
them have returned to their homes.
The week has been notable for the deep

PROOF AGAINST FoorpADs.
The Timid Man Had u Queer Way
of Concealtng His
Money.

When the timid-looipg ran got out
of the barber chair after being shaved
he fumbled in one pocket after another
while the porter busted his clothing.
says the Kansas City Journal.
WELL" he said, with note of aston
ishment in his voice, as he plunged his
hand for the fourth time into his right
trousers pocket and felt around.
That's funny. I thought bad guar.
ter in that pocket"
He repeated the search Of hts other
pockets, while the barber who had
shaved him leaned his elbow on the
back Of the chair, crossed one leg over
the other and eyed him suspidously.
"Guess must've lost IT," said the tim
id-looking man as be put hts right fcot
on a chair and began to roll up his
trousers leg. The bar Der winksd at the
artist in charge Of the chair next 80 his
and moved nearer the razor case. The
man rolled and pulled his trousers leg
above his knee, and by this time evary-
one else in the shop was watching him
with intense interest. They saw that
he wore a woman's black stocking. Just
above his knee he wore two garters, one
about four inches above the other. He
slipped the upper garter down, rolled
down the top OF the stocking carefully
and there were several treasury notes
lying spread out fat against the under
clothing that covered his leg.
What do you carry money in that
way for ?" asked the barber, as he handed
the man change for the five-dollar bill
"Footpads," was the laconic reply of
the ranger.-Kansas City Journal.

NEEDS OF THE DAY.

We have found out in less than a
month of war that we need greatly in
the navy many things which we haven't
got
We need torpedo boat destroyers, of
greater speed, size, and coal endurance
than exist at present elsewhere. OF
these three qualities the standard of
speed can best be left unimproyed and
permitted to remain where it is, at
thirty knots.
We need scout boats, of size enough
TO keep the sea and speed enough for
rapid courier work, far smaller in size
than the Harvard and Yale, but still
big enough to carry more than weeks
bnrning of coal, and faster by seven or
eight knots at least.
We need troop ships, and the depart
ment of hospital ships must be sup
piled.
I'VE need GOLFERS, not too tubby for
speed, and of enormous size, ships as
big as or bigger than the Emperor
William the Great. These must be
fitted with some sort Of coal elevator
by which the Sighting boats can be
coaled at sea. And every eae Of tie
latter class, particularly the monitors,
should be fitted with a chute that can
take IN coal in any reasona BILE weather.
We need more armored cruisers,
boats capable OF very rapid movement,
and which, while not the first choice
for hunt for battleships, won't lose
all their sauciness and con fdence when
q battleship heaves in sight. The
Spaniards are we'll equipped in this
respect.
To sum up .he needs Of the navy, we
want it bigger in all respects-more
battleships, more monitors, more cruis-
ers, armored and unarmored, and more
other craft, equipped with more rapid
firing guns and more Deweys; though
not for moment do we suggest that
the navy men now under the stars and
stripes are not all Deweys.-New York

Good Motive Power.

Not great while ago the General
Superintendent of Motive Power of
one of the largest Rail Road systems
in the northern part Of the country
happened to visit Baltimore. Being Of
q courteous disposition he called on
Baltimore and Ohio motive power Of
fcials to pay his respects and he was
given an opportunity to see the new
locomotives that have been purchased
during the past two years. He DEVOTED
a great deal Of his time to an inspec-
tion of the monster ten wheel pas
senger engines that are used between
Philadelphia and Washington on the
80 mile an hour Royal Blue trains.
When he was ready to depart he turn
ed to one of the Company's officers and
remarked:
II have always been Of the opinion
that there was nothing on the Balt.-
more and Ohio Rail Road that was
worth patterning after, but am very
frank TO say that 1 have seen today
the most advanced types of locomo-
tiyes in the country. l know of no
railroad in the country whose motive
power is equal to yours"
Within a month after his visit to
Baltimore this official ordered num-
ber of locomotives, only stipulating
that they should be built after the
plans Of the Baltimore aud Ohio en-
giues.

with q Bulesttck.


~ see that Gen. Cluseret has been tell
ing the French people lot of yarns
about the American soldier in the Paris
Figaro" said Judge Thomas S. largest.
~ have not yet seen anything in print
concerning Cluseret's identity. knew
Gen. Cluseret. He came here at the be-
ginning Of the war and volunteered in
the union army, receiving small com
mand. He came into the army with an
idea that he was going to be second
La Fayette, and he was the vainest man
! ever saw. He was little fellow. trim
and 6apper, and most conceited. He
wore all kinds of fancy uniforms, and
across his breast he strung a line of
medals. He was a sight when he
walked out with skin-tight trousers
that reached t2 his knees, where they
were attached to his boots, his monkey
jacket, his little cap cooked on one side
and his highly mounted sword dangling
at his heels and scraping along the
ground. His strut was poem, and he
always walked on his heels with his
head in the stars. / think he got to be
5rey2t brig2dier at the close of the war,
but l am not eel tain. ,s.''r''''N'a--"s|''~
ITO the best Of my knowledge and be-
lief, Cluseret drew that magnificent
sword only once, and that was at the
close of the war. 1t was in 1868, and we
had established quartermaster's depot
at Stephenson's Station. five miles from
Winchester, with Col. Ray, now OF Pitts
burgh, in Charge We had as property
clerk young man from Indiana,
quiet lad, who never disturbed anybody
and always attended to his business.
One day train loaded with baled hay
was run up to the station, and as it
stopped before the 9uartermaster's
building it was seen to be on fire. The
property clerk dropped his pen and
gave the alarm. and we all started to
pull away the burning bales ofhay.
"Of course, it was time of great ex-
element. and in the midst of ii all who
should prance out to take part, sword
and all, but Cluseret. 1t was a great
time for him. He ran about shouting
orders, waving his hands and shouting
in broken English commands that no.
body could understand. He was in
everybody's way, and he was hot be-
cause nobody would do as he said. At
last, wild with rage, he drew his sword,
and made adash at the property clerk.
The latter picked up a balestck and
hauled off to hit him. Cluseret halted
and then ran, and the property clerk
laid the balestick down and assisted in
putting out the fire. Would you be-
lieve it? That man Cluseret preferred
charges against the property clerk,
and a court-martial convicted him and
sent him TO Fort McEenry. When we
heard of it we sent petition to Presi-
dent Lincoln detailing all the circuu-
stances, and that clerk was back to his
work in three days. Yes, knew Clus-
eret. and I didn't know any good of
him."-N. Y Sun.
