Two Years Appropriation Exhausted and No
Funds for Next Fall.


The state fsi. commission has ex.

$1,000 and no fair will be held next year
under the auspices of the slate. The
commission claims the expenses this
year amounted to $4,000 or this s..
900 was expended on the grounds; $1,000
for premiums; $4,000 on the races; and
$1,000 on running expenses. The receipts
it is claimed. were 81 $50 from the gates
and grardstand; 81 $50 from concessions !;
81 900 from entries; $500 from special
premiums; $500 from Seattle exposition
and $50 from other sources. To this is
added the 5000 state appropriation.
The published report Of the secretary
later will give the public clearer idea Of
how this vast sum OF $4,000 has been
expended, in detail.

Why Horses Should Be Cllpped.

1t is positive shame to use a horse
hard when he has OIL his long, heavy
coat. Kept under artificial conditions, he
has not chance in the world to comply
with the demands of nature, as the wild
horses do. and often he is worked 80
hard that he sweats freely and then
stands all night wet to the very skin,
using up to dry his hair all the heat that
should be going to recuperate his tired
body. In this way he loses strength
steadily, whereas, il the clippers should
be run over him, he would dry off in 20
minutes and then stand warm and com.
Portable all night. Just think how it
would feel to lie down on your bed with
clothes wringing wet with gummy sweat
1t is not likely you would be very com.
Portable. Every up-to-date stable is
equipped with clipping machine. We

Christian Science.

We have been inclined to look upon
Christian science as simply a form of
idiocy. That such jargon could COM
mand the assent of large companies Of
men and women Of even ordinary intelli-
gence, almost passes belief. A phenom-
enon of this sort is one of the most serious
indictments that could be brought against
the mental sanity OF our age. Some of
the teachers Of this prOfane Stiffness,
however, are not without certain shrewd-
ness. They know how to talk nonsense
in, high-sounding terms, and they also
have a'knack for turning the credulity of
their -deciples into personal gain. The.

Beautiful Thought.

ut is in the desert where virtue trem-

where faith is crucifed, the inidel dreams.
TO him all there is Of heaven is bounded
by this little span of life; all there is of
intelligence and wisdom is tie human
brain; all there is Of mystery and infnity
is fathomed by human reason, and all
there is of virtue is measured bv the re-
iations of man and man. TO him all must
end in the tongueless silence ofthe dream
less dust, and all that lies beyond tbe
grave is vOiceless shore and starless skv
10 him there are no prints of deathless
ieet IN its echoless sand, no thrill of i'm.
mortal music in its joyless air. He has

way on tagging pinions, searching for

THEY CAN'T BE USED
captured Spanish Ordnance of No
Practical. Use to Us.
'"r Ammunition VIII DOT Fir Gup..
"h'ch Also Are Not of the
lost Modern Type
of Weapon.

g., mere has been some speculation q.
what disposition the navy depart
ment will make of the modern guns cap
tured from Spain during the recent war
IL has been generally understood that
the obsolete ordnance would figure
ONLY as souvenirs for distribution by
the government to states and munich
PARTIES, but there was quite a number
OF servlceable modern cannon, mostly
naval guns captured at Santiago, Ma
Mia and elsewhere. 1t is stated by tile
department that these guns are not
likely to form very valuable asset.
The 4.7-inch guns from the Maria
Teresa, the Niscaya and the Colon, sew
eral Of which are now at the Washing
ton navy yard, are not the most mod
ern type of this weapon. They are Diff
ferent In caliber from any gun Of the
American navy, except those of the
New Orleans and the Albany, now be-
ing completed abroad. The six-inch
quick-dire guns captured also require
special ammunition, not being adapted
to our six-inch shells, so that, except
in case of accident to one of the guns
of the New Orleans or Albany, there
would be small likelihood of getting
any Of the captured ordnance into serv-
ice. The question of boring out the
captured guns TO the next higher cal
iber was considered, but rejected as
reducing too greatly the factor Of
safety.
There is on hand quite supply Of
ammunition for the peculiar armament
of our two adopted cruisers, and 1t is
thought by the time this is used up this
country will be in position to supply
them with all of the sort of ammunition
they need,
1t Is interesting TO note that the new
guns being planned for the navy will
conform in certain material respects
10 those of the New Orleans. which was
classed by all the officers who saw her
in action during the war as q marvel
lousy quick-fring hard shooting piece
CT naval architecture. Her guns are all
80 caGbers long," that Is, the barrel is
so times the length of the diameter OF
the bore. Our standard has been 40 |
calibers, but the longer gun seems to |
bear about the same relation TO the |
shorter as the As caliber rife does TO |
the revolver of the same bore. II is
this popularity Of the barrel guns that
develops their remarkable muzzle We
locity Of something like 1850 feet. The
new guns planned for our navy are ex-
pected to develop about 1900 feet We
Iocity. 1t is expected that this new
'ype of the six-inch quick-frer, with
Is additional penetrating power. will
make ii an even more terrible weapon
han that demonstrated itself to be Ia
our two memorable actions with the
spanish fleets.
