Dishonesty Never Pays.

Let me say in the most emphatic
manner to all young men. dishonesty

a piece of ground and the owner would
not sell it, but the owner finally con-
sented to let it to him until he could
raise one crop. and the abbot sowed
acorns, a crop Of 200 years And tell
you, young man, that the dishonestles
which you plant in your heart and life
will seem to be very insignificant, but
they will grow up until they will over
shadow you with horrible darkness.

PLAGUE OF MONKEYS.
Their Massaere n Serious question
Sin India.

In India.
The monkey slaughter question has,
it appears, assumed serious aspect
inst now. 1t has caused considerable
excitement among orthodox Hindoos
not only In Orissa and Bengal but as
far as the news has travelled. We serl-
ously warn the authorities against this
iniudicious proposal of the Puri city
fathers. lest the question should lead 10
some serious consequences. The religious
feelings of orthodox uindoos who form
the majority in India. cannot b. tri'iea

order than for anything else. The n,.s'

FORT HAMILTON IN BAD SHAPE.
Captain Allen Complains of the OIt
Stations Condition.

Captain Allen Complains of the Old
Stations Condition..
The War Department has received re-
port by Capt 8. e. Allen, on his Inspection
Of the condition of the buildings at Fort
Hamilton, N. Y. Captain Allen complains
of the condition of the officers quarters,
and says:
THE light battery barracks were origi-
nally constructed for sixty men and are
entirely too small for the present COM
mand. In the two squad-rooms there is not
enough floor space for the hunks necessary
for the men nor is the air space sufficient.
The enlisted mems barracks are exceeding
ly unsightly and this has been made more
apparent by the building of the new hos
pital of press brick. The surroundings OIL
the post in the way Of parks and drive
ways and its proximity to the city make
this show post, andait is necessary that
the barracks should besmade attractive and
urgently request that the allotment for ex-
terror painting be authorized. The field
officers quarters are far inferior to the
captains quarters and number of rooms
is its only advantage. Even from this
point of view the upstairs rooms are mere
attics. There Is no furnace in the build
ing. There is nca quartermasters store
house at this post.r The ordinary property
is stored in the forage storehouse and the
clothing and equipage in the frame build
ing over the headquarters offices, is expos
ed at all times tosloss by fire.
1.-The quartermaster's Office is now In
the room which is part Of the post chapel
and schoolroom. There is absolutely no
building here suitab,e for the purpose of
an administration building. One is very
much needed. II 1t is intended to retain
this post as a regimental headquarters q
proper seS of band quarters should be con-
structed. The members of the band at
present are quartered5 in the easements.
which are not fit for occupancy. A new
light battery stable of brick is needed and
has been asked for for several years The
necessity grows greater every year.
1.-The present accommodations for troops
are unsanitary and unsightly and in con-
sequence of the fact that the post is now
within the limits of New York city and
new driveway or boulevard passes by
the post and Immediately adjoining the
post is park and country clubhouse,
these buildings have become disgrace.
In view of the importance in the sea coast
defences and its conspicuous position in
the heart of district like New York city
now undergoing extensive and important
| improvements in connection with the city
park system, the buildings should be re-
constructed on a plan in which the sur
roundings are considered as we'll as the
| mere accommodating power. At the pres
| ent time change OF plans would occasion
| less cost to the Government than would
result by later change after buildings
now urgently needed are located and con-
structed with regard TO the present plans.
