their church building for a public

UNITED STATES COURT.
Motion for instruction for
Defendant 0yerruIed.

After very short time devoted
70 motions this morning the f. NJ.
Smith trial was resumed. The
court rendered an exhaustive opin-
ion, and one that clearly outlines
the legal aspect Of the case as
viewed by his honor, on the mo-
ton OF counsel for defense to in
struct the jury to return verdict
for defendant. The motion was
overruled, the court holding that
he could not review questions of
fact, bus could only enquire as to
the legality OF the proceeding
That it was not in the province of
any court in the United States to
determine whether the action Of
the interior department in remov-
ing Smith was acting wisely or
unwlsely, but that it was matter
entirely in the discretion of said
department. AS to the contention
that the Curtis law clothed citizens |
Of the United States with any ad- !
ditional rights IN the Cherokee
nation, and in the incorporated
towns, Judge Springer stated that
he was the author Of section IA Of
the Curtis bill, That il did not,
nor ever was intended TO confer
such rights, nor TO divest the Cher
okee nation of any rights whatso-
ever, and that the title to all the
lands in the Cherokee nation was
just as il had been from the be-
ginning. The testimony was con-
cluded at noon, and the court in

Accounts of recent performances of
French submarine torepdo boats indi-
cate that no small amount of attention
is being paid to this form of naval
equipment across the Atlantic. From
a competition the most promising
plans were selected by the French Of
fcers, and an example of n has re-
Gently been seen in the Gustave Zede,
which was Unanswered in the harbor
of Toulon. 1t is stated that this tor
pedo boat approached to within 500
meters of a large battle-ship, rose to
the surface of the water to take aim,
and then sunk before n guns could
be trained upon it. 1t subsequently
appeared at about 200 meters distance
from the vessel and discharged a tor
pedo, which passed between her fun
nels. The torpedo boat is propelled
by storage batteries, and is intended
chiefly for harbor defense, as its sphere
OF action is limited. Another craft
that French naval officers are devot-
Ing considerable attention to is the
Narval, which will be completed in
the course of two or three months.
This vessel is somewhat larger, being
propelled by steam while at the SUR
face, and using the accumulators when
unde the water. The Marvel is said
to carry sufficient fuel for a voyage
OF ga miles at 8 knots, or 252 miles in
"a hours at IL knots. Under water, it
is claimed, rs miles at a speed of 8
knots will be attained. A number of
appliances are to be introduced on
these craft, the nature of which is
being carefully kept a close secret by
the French authorities, but 1t is now
generally known that they are consid-
ering submarine warfare on an extern
sive scale.

In the equipment building at the

of our navy are made. A large YES

Why Ships Are Not Struck by
ItRhtniur

The reason why ships are not struck
by lightning is attributed to the gener-
nj use which is now made of wire rope
for rigging purposes, as well as to the
fact that the hulls of ships are usually
constructed of iron or steel. Thus the
whole ship forms an excellent and CON
tinuous conductor, by means of which
the electricity is led away into the
ocean before it has time to do any seri-
