Tried to XIII HIS Mother.

San Francisco, July While in a
drunken frenzy, Cornelius Manning tried
to kill his mother by throwing q lighted
lamp at her. The efforts Of Mrs. Ken
nedy, who was visiting Mrs. Manning, to
save the life of her hostess, resulted in
frightful burns, which will probably end
fatally for the unfortunate woman. Paul
Kennedy, the husband, is also painfully
burned about the hands and face, and his
little 5-year-old niece, Maud Kennedy, is
SO seriously injured from the flaming oil
that though she may recover she may be
marked for life
The tragedy took place at the home of
Mrs. Manning, on Jones and Greenwich
streets. Young Manning came home with
friend named Taylor. A quarrel en-
sued, and when Mrs Manning attepted
to quiet her son he dashed small lamp
in the floor, where it exploded. He then
threw larger lamp at his mother.

THE CANTEEN IN THE ARMY.
POST EXCHANGE NECESSARY.
The Fight Made by Temperance .Peo-
ple-Is = Permanent Estsblish ment In
the Army = Army Oficers an Favor Of
it-Ssy 1t IL Indispensable.

Washington, d. c., July 3.-As a result
of the investigation made by the war de-
partment, it may be confidently stated
that the army canteen is practically a
permanent establishment. All the officers
of the department are thoroughly tired Of
a controversy which has had IN it much
that has been disagreeable and Adjutant
General Corbin states that he now consid-
ers the matter as definitely settled. :
The opinions of over 600 army officers
were asked as to the advisability of con-
tinuing the canteen system, which it was
decided by the attorney general the
war department had the right to do, de-
spite the paragraph in the army bill passed
at the last session Of congress, which
the temperance people are anxious to have
construed that no beer or any malt liquor
shall be sold at any army post or upon
any government reserve. The replies OF
the army officers whose opinions were
asked are almost unanimously in favor of
continuing the canteen system, as being
better for the morals of the soldiers them
selves. 1t was at first thought that these
replies would be given to the public as a
sort of defense OF the department against
the attacks Of the temperance people, but
now it has been considered unnecessary
and inadvisable to do SO, as still further
stirring up controversy that could have
no good result. Acting Secretary Meikel
john at least, decided not to do it, and
Secretary Alger has not had time to takt
the matter up since his return.
1t probably is not generally known out
side of the department of war itself how
great has been the hue and cry raised by
the advocates OF prohibition against thu
selling of beer at army posts, and loud
long and continuous have been the de
mands made upon the president that h
should issue an executive order forbiddin;
the sale of all kinds of liquor under an,
kind of an arrangement at the variou
barracks and army posts throughout tn
country.
Seems to BE a Necessity.
The reports received from army officer
declare almost without exception that tn
post exchange is indispensable to the pro
motion and maintenance of the morality
comfort and contentment of the enliste
men. 1t is found to work without tn
slightest friction at all camps and garrl
sons, and contributes to the sobriety an
efficiency of the troops.

Ameer,. Life In Danger.

London, July THE st. Petersburg
correspondent of the Globe says advices
have been received from Cabul, the capital
of Afghanistan, than an Afghan recently
discharged rifle point blank at the
ameer, but missed him, the bullet lodging
in the shoulder of general standing near
by. Advices also say the ameer's brother
Ishak, attempted to bribe cook to poison
the ameer, and that when the plot was
discovered Ishak fled into Russian Asia
and the cook was hanged.
