to face any other kind Of gur-ara not charged with it, but with powder.
 All Iyddite shells are equipped with percussion nose fuzes only; hence theIr explosion takes place on impact in the following fashion: The percussion fuZe ignites a picTic powder exploder. which in turn ign:tes the bursting charge of lyddite, the detonation of the fuse and of the two explosives inside the shell being instantaneous. The picric pow der eIploder, we should add is insert ed in a recess left in the lyddite for that purpose. Lyddite shell is to some extent less barbarous than shTapnel exploded by powder. for. though wide spread, it's death dealing effects are due more to air cOncussion than to the wounding effects of the flying frag- ments. In other words. in the case of a lyddite shell bursting in d group Of men, the greater number Will te killed not by pieces of the shell. but by the blow of the suddenly compressed air. -London Graphic.

A CENTRIFUGAL RAILWAY.
Shooting the Chutes Upsidedown, But
 There Isn't Much Danger.

A man who lives at Toledo, O., has devised what he calls a centrifugal railway that an unprejudiced observer would suppose will very much reduce the longevity returns of his town when it begins to run.
 The centrifugal railway is an inn provement on the shoot the chutes" and switcnback railways, for it in cludes a stretch of track on which the car runs upside down as Q fly prone nades on ceiling.
 The shoot the chutes upside down" game is operated on the 'monorair' plan, which invariably has three rails. a central carrying rail and guide rails on each side, with wheels running on their under surface to hold the car on the track and prevent derailment.
 An elevator takes the trembling pas senger to the top of the to5oggan. The car, when started by the executiOneT, dashes down this and acquires such velocity as to run up and around the inner sides of the loop of the vertical circle.
 The centrifugal force. the inventor thinks, will hold the car to the track, and the people in their seats while they  are scooting around the inside of the loop with their heads downward. No actual trial of the machine has been described. Although the inventor of fered free rides to the people Of Ohio, they did not come forward in sufficient numbers to make a carload.
 The man who figures out. the foot ton" problems and the tensile strength" question gives it as his off cial view that as far as the people staying in the car goes, mo doubt they would do so if all went we'll" If the car should not reach the required speed in passing around the curve the guide wheels would prevent the gar from falling. but the passengers might yield to the superior attraction Of g-avit5- ton and tumble down upon their he2ds. -EagiEecIinE News.

LYDDITE SHELLS.
Their Use in Accordance With the
 Laws Of War.

The statement that General Joubert has formally protested against the use of lyddite as inhuman is hard to be- lieve, for lyddfte as an explosive does not violate any of the principles of the St. Petersburg declaration of 1888. This convention was caled together to ex- anime into the expediency of forbid ding the use of certain prOjectiles in times of war between civilized nations, and the principle governing it was that the use of weapons which use leSsly aggravate the sufferiugs Of wounded men or render their death inevitable" is contrary to the laws of humanity. Accordingly the contract ing parties engaged mutually to re- nounce in case of war among them selves the employment by their miIi- tary or naval troops of any projectile of a weight below AGO grammes Ia lit tie less than a poundJ which is either explosive or charged with Illuminating or infiammable substances" The mag azine rifle. the machine gun, high ex- plosives for artillery shells, mines and similar inventions for carrying on war are not legisiated against, but solely
 the small explosive bullet, on the
 ground that the object of war is to disable the greatest number possible.
 but not to render recovery from wounds impossible or to increase their severity. This principle of the St. Petersburg declaration has been incOr-
 porated into later codes, like that
 worked over by the Brussels confer
 ence in 1874. Therefore, the use of
 lyddite in artillery shells is perfectly justifable.
 What is lyddite? The nigh exp os.ve
 thus called from the name of the small
 Kentish town and gunnery center
 where the experiments with it were
 made. is nothing else than picric acid brought into a dense state by fusion.
 Picric acid is bright yellow substance
 freely used in peaceful industries for dyeing purposes. It is obtained by the
 action of nitric acid on phenol or car
 bo,ic acid. It burns very violently, and owing to the tremendous blast pro- duced by the explosion, the destructive effect of a bursting shell flied with it 1 is some eleven times greater than that of a sheil filled with powder. Common shell or forged steel filled with lyddite are used with and 92-inch breach ! loading guns. and with howitz rs: a'so with to C-ilch quick firing guns.

LONELY THEODORE HILTON.
Seen in Paris Recently by a Woman
 Whom He Befrierded as Q Girl

Whom He Befrierded as Girl ! Many years ago I was a frightened. bitter, angry little rebel. one of the only two southern girls in a large school far up the Hudson river. It was not very long after the close of our terrible civil war. and the two angry but helpless little creatures were the victims of the bitter spirit which at that time was still so strong. Sudden ly the crowd of tormentors was dis persed by a tall. beautiful girl, the ac- knowledged queen of the school. She gathered US both into her tender clasp and her voice sang like a clarion as she said, "Cowardsl don't you see their black dresses?" It was enough. and in a moment the tide turned and our per secutorS became>our ConsolerS.
 Our rescuer, our guardian angel, as she became henceforth, was a sister of Theodore Hilton. and was about to graduate, while we had just entered school.
 The day of her graduation came, and among the judges was Mir. Triton, then in the zenith of his fame, brilliant, handsome, debonair, with gracious words for every one, but many kind and gentle ones for the sisters, two de- voted little worshippers, whose story he had been told.
 was the junior winner of the first prize for spelling, and never will for get my thrill Of conscious self respect when he said: The tables are turned and the little rebel has conquered you" :"
 Last spring I was at an afternoon tea in Paris and was attracted by the grandeur Of an old man, who lowered above all present like a giant among pignies. Some vagrant memory was stirred. so I asked the name of this grand old man. and was tod that he was Theodore Tilton and that he never permitted himself to be presented to strangers. unless, Knowing who he was, they themselves requested a presenta- tion. Doing homage to the spirit which prompted such a course. I asked that we might be introduced and then fol- lowed such an hour of pleasant reIli- niscences as will not soon be forgotten. From the beautiful spot upon the banks of the Hudson, where we first met, we wandered through many lands and many scenes. I had known him first when he was like a giant tree of the forest, in the pride and pomp of it's full new growth. l saw him again, like that same giant tree, which, having withstood the warning and the buffet ing of the elements, stood covered with hoary moss, still straight and strong, above the petty things of life. but alone. Today he is the center of a cir cle of loving friends, who amidst bril- liancy of intellect and height of social position still feel that his presence gives them honor. His face shows the impress of such agony as few souls have battled with and have lived, but it also shows the courage of the van quisher of himself. So today Theodore Triton stands. ever lonely, ever aloof. but to the last with naughty head un- bent-Indianapolis Sentinel.

 The military establishment was pre- pared to purchase 35O,OOO pounds more corn from the Indians, but owing to failure of their crops they were unable to deliver more.
 These Indians are the White Noun tan Apaches proper, with a few scat tering Chiricahua Apaches, the rem nant of Geronimo's band, who were re- moved from here to Fort Marion. Fla. in 1886, and the leader of whom is now apparently well contented riding after cattle around Fort Sill, I. T. saw this hostile tribe, numbering 40, on their way from Fort Apache to Holbrook. on the Santa Fe railroad; they were bound hand and foot and loaded into open wagons. They were an angry, fierce looking band of disappointed Indians. Few people outside this territory real ize the extent of benefit that removal did the remaining Indian tribes.
 This reservation is located in the eastern central part of Arizona and its dimensions are about. forty-two miles north and south by sixty-two miles east and west, with a number of fine trout streams emptying into Black river on the south. which serves as the southern border and part of the east ern border. These streams are quite an attraction for fishermen. Touris-7 have often been permitted to camp = the banks of these streams, with the pleasure of angling, but not without the consent of Indians and agent. and so far nobody has abused the privilege extended to them

inG the freely offered prediction that all would go to the bottom. One raft of lumber was caught in a whirlpool in the MohaYe canyon. and, although weighing over 300O0 pounds. was turned completely over and the four Indiana on it went. under the raft They al, came up safely. The raft was held to- geIher by strong anchor bolts. and rode the balance of the way bottom side up. Thirty pairs of window sash on the raft. in punches of six, were sent swim ming. but every one was picked up within the next ten miles uniujured. The agent and clerk were in a boat ac- companyinS this raft and were eye witnesses to the dangers of the trip. The boiler. engine. compressor. and other heavy material for the ice plant were brought in barges. along with a cargo of lime and cement.
 I give the above statements to show. further the industry and courage of these Indians. It also shows that I have faithful agency employees and that they do not live a life of ease. In fact. this year they have been called upon for more than the usual amount JL NpitA- IIc Glll lllOy tS anu agent h. stalled the ice plant complete without any expert or outside help and with nc special plans or directions. and it was a success from the start. This. with the installation of the irrigation plant the construction and reconstruction of over five miles of ditches, supervising thS clearing and leveling of over 200 acres of new land. teaching the Indians how to make brick, the hauling of materia and machinery from the river to the agency. the hauling Of stone and sano for foundations, the building of Hume boxes, in addition to the regular rou- tine have taxed the utmost physical endurance of all. Twelve to fourteen hours per day, and not eight, has been tke rule for months. Yet it has all been done cheerfully. hopefully and even enthusiastically as results became apparent.

The following condition of affairs at Fort Apache is shown by Major A. A. Armstrong, agent:
 I assumed my duties as agent April I 1899. and found many Indians in a starved condition, as reports from Spe- cial Agent Taggart and Inspector Me Connen hitherto made will show I have known much about these Indians the past fifteen years and consider this their most destitute year, caused by floods destroying their crops last sum mer, and a failure to secure so large d wood contract as usual from the Forr Apache military post. On application, the Indian office authorized an extra monthly issue of flour and beef. and loaned them 11,0OO pounds of barley and I000 pounds of corn for seed. and gave them 5000 pounds of seen corn, which proved a great relief Corn grows well here and is usually a sue cessful crop, but barley raising is 9 new experiment for these Indians, and I fear the rainy season of July and Au- gust will destroy much of it, as it rip ems in the former month. The prospect for the corn crop this season is flatter- ing and if it escapes hailstOrms and early frosts. these Indians will be able to fully supply the contracts at the agency and the military post.

OFFICERS OF THE SHAMROCK

Skipper Parker to Advise the Cap
tain i'm Command.
Southampton, August 1.-The statement
that Capt. Ben Parker, skipper of Emperor
Williams yacht Meteor, would sail the
Shamrock in her races against the Column
bia for the Americas Cup is confirmed.
The selection of Parker, it is explained, is
part Of a scheme to give to Captain Ho-
garth, the commander Of the Shamrock,
the best expert assistance available during
the races.
The Kaiser was extremely anxious to
keep Parker's appointment secret and 1t is
possible that he will refuse to let him go
when he hears that the press has already
published the fact.
II the arrangement is carried out Cap
tain Parker will act in an advisory ca
pacity, with Captain Hogarth in command.
Hogarth will have a further adviser in the
person OF Mr.. Connoll, an amateur yachts
man OF repute on the Clydeside, in whom
VIII Fife has the greatest confidence. Cap
tain Hogarth will thus have the best of
amateur and professional advice. Sir
Thomas Upton, VIII Fife, the designer;
Ratsey, the sailmaker, and Hon. Charles
Russell, son of Lord Chief Justice Russell,
and Sir Thomas Lipton's personal friend
and representative, will sail on the steam
ship Campania in time to meet the Sham
rock on her arrival at New York and Major
Sharman- Crawford and the officials of the
Royal Ulster Yacht Club will sail later.
Sir Thomas Upton and Messrs. Ratsey and
Fife will probably be on board the Sham
rock during the races. 1t Is stated that
the Shamrock's hull alone cost $780, 900.
