Don't Put Things Of.

"I cannot too strongly impress upon you, Philip, said Mrs. Gratebar, "the fact that things in general are not auto- matio-that is, they will not do them selyes-and the longer you put off the attack upon them the harder they are to tackle. Don't put things off, Philip. To things that require deliberation you will give sufficient thought; but, as to the run of things that come up, acquire the habit of disposing of them as they rome along; you will find it great help in many ways. Don t cord 'em up, Philip. The first thing you know yon will have more stacked up than you can saw, and then, too, the pile is liable to fall on you at any tirne and hurt you.
 1.-Two things to remember, Philip first, things are not automatic; second, the time to attend to things is now. ''-.- New York Sun.

His career finally was brought to an

The victim of the assault was beaten

satisfactory and Judge Davis was
Obliged to go into hiding for two days.
The v~igilantes concluded that the af-

volunteered their services yesterday and
moved the gun to the relic room.
There are few relies left from the war
between the states that can be of more
interest to Charlestonians than this old
gun. 1t is made from what is known as
Low Moor iron.. and is possibly the first
rited cannon manufactured in this coun-
try. 1t is an eighteen-pounder, seven feet
long and weighs 1890 pounds. On it is
the inscription. ITO the State of South
Carolina. from Plowden c. ]. Weston"
The gun was put into service first on the
Waccamaw river. and had Il great deal
TO do with keeping the gunboats of the
enemy OFF the Georgetown bar. Later 1t
went to Columbia, where 1t was captured
by Shermans army. An effort was made
to destroy the gun by breaking off the
trunnions. This. however, was imprac-
ticable, as the fine material resisted all
attempts at destruction. The enemy did
succeed in breaking the trunnions from
another gun and rarlmed them il the
muZze of the barker from Charleston.
Plowden C. ]. Weston was the man who
purchased the gun Immediately after 1t
was turned out from the shops. and he
gave it TO the state of South Carolina.
In a recent letter to Mrs. Augustine T.
Smythe, president of the Charleston chap
ter of the Daughters OF the Confederacy.
Captain de Saussure stated that he would
take great pleasure in delivering the gun
to the chapter as loan. as he believed
1t could not be in better hands. The loan
was accepted with much pleasure. and
from now on the old relic will be one of
the biggest prizes in possession of the
Charleston chapter.

DELICAcY OF ACTION.
A Comparison Between Steam and
Electricity on Ship
bOard

The recently published report Of the
chief OF the bureau of construction ana

ment derives particular interest. says Cas-
sier's Magazine from the fact that II gives
some of the results of using electricity lot
moving the turrets of warships. thousn
ii has long been known in 4 general way
that in delicacy of movement in rapidity
of starting and in certainty OF action.
electricity is far superior 10 either steam,
compressed air or hydraulic power-the
other forms of motive power used for this
purpose. one great drawback to hydraulic
machinery is its tendency to freeze up in
cold climates, which. of course, at once
destroys its efficiency. Steam. on the other
hand while free from the defect of freeZ-
ing must always take u certain percepti-
bic amount of time to overcome the In
ertia of the piston and its attached ma
chinery Moreover, this inertia. once over
come requires an equal force to bring
the machinery TO rest again. Thus, II is
found that with a turret nfteeen eeet in
diameter the least movement possible with
steam machinery, calculated on the rim OF
the turret is four inches, while actual
tests on one of the warships of the
United States several months ago showed
that with electric turning gear a turret
of the same diameter could be moved
that is, started and stopped again-twenty
nine times in one inch. The proportion be-
tween steam and electricity. therefore, in
de,iCacy of movement in this instance is
four times twenty-nine. or 1l6 times as
great. The chief objection to all radical
innovations like this one has heretofore

Charleston News and Courier.
Confederate war relic in the shape OF a
l.O0o-pound cannon was hauled up in the
Mills house yesterday and placed along
with other valuable remnants of the great
struggle which are being preserved by the
Daughters of the Confederacy. The cannon
is Charleston made. 1t was manufactured
by the late Archibald Cameron in 1861. and
after very warm service in the Wacca-
nav river and around Columbia was final
ly captured by ShermanS army and par
TALLY destroyed. After the war the gun
was purchased by the Cameron & Rarkley
company at sale of property and pre-
sented TO the Washington artillery. Yes

from its hiding place at the South Carolina
Military academy. under orders OF Cap
tain Henry a. de Saussure, OF the WASH

story told to all those who are Interested
