Among the many Appliances now being
tried in warfare for the first time the
tele-photographic amer is not the least
important. Telcphotography is often
thought to be the taking OF photographs
by means OF an apparatus combining II
telescope with an ordinary camera This
is not strictly the case, although the prin-
c:ple is the same. Tclcphotosraphic ac-
ton is brought about by specially devised
lenses. the invention OF an Englishman.
Its advantages in military work and es-
pecially for balloon purposes is great. 1t
has been used to advantage by the Brit
ish in South Africa, although the war
office has not officially adopted the de-
vice. In Italy, Spain, Russia and Ger
many the apparatus has been thus adopt
ed. TelephOtography was first used in
the Chino-Japancse war.

Some II has lately been calling attcn-
ton to the number of unmarried generals
now serving in the British army. Lord
Kitchener is one of the long list nov serv-
ing in South Africa. Gen. Gatacre, Sir
Archibald Hunter and Gen. Macdonald
are also bachelors. Gen. Kitchener, it
may be said, has been so busy with his
duties as a soldier all his life, that, as he
expresses it, ''he has had no time to get
married."

HOW 10 Ruild an Eleotric Road.

The citizens of Texarkana, Ark
Tex, with a small amount of
trouble and a much smaller amount
of expense can build an electric road
in a very short time. 1t can be done
by applying what is known as the
endless chain system of the ticket
system now in use by the Texarkana
street railroad, and by it the capital
can be raised at home to build the
road, The tickets in book form now
being used on the road can then be
obtained for fifty cents or at half
price. The Street Railroad Com
pany issue a small booklet contain
ing four (4 certificates, this to be
sold to a patron of the road for two
dollars and fifty cents $3.50. The
buyer of this book of certificates
sells each one of these certificates
for fifty cents (50c) each; the book
of certificates really costing the
buyer fifty cents (50c). On each one
of these certificates it states that
when the holder of each certificate
(that is those to whom they were
sold) returns each one of the GER
tifcates together with two dollars
$500 to the Office of the Street
Railroad Company, the holder of
each certificates receives a booklet
of certificates the same as the first
one ard the original purchaser of
the booklet of certificates receives a
book containing thirty tickets or
one of those that is. now being sold
at one dollar ($D. Thus the pur-
chaser receives a 81 book of street
car tickets for fifty cents.
CITIZEN,
We must admit that the above
scheme would build and equip a
railroad to the moon, should there
be found enough enterprising citi-
zens to make the small out lay at
first required, but it would take a
spontanuity of purpose with the
citizenship of our city to make the
above scheme practicable. We can
not recommend Citizens scheme on
the above grounds. Let some one
else suggest plan.

To Keep Potatoes.

At Fayetteville, Ark, we met
growers who gave us the following
recipe for keeping Irish potatoes.
They have demonstrated its value by
practical experiments. The method
is not expensive. Here it is:
After digging the potatoes and
storing in cellar or dark place, scat.
ter slaked lime over them. A sieve
could be used for sprinkling on the
lime, Stir up the potatoes so that
all will be covered. 1t is better to
have the potatoes 10 to IA inches
deep on shelves or in boxes. So
treated, the potatoes will keep
sound and sweet all through the
winter, Iobe Stearns and 5. A.
Peck treated their potatoes this
way with perfect success. Mr.. Peck
says this treatment did not iniure
them the least for planting. Mr..
Stearns tells the experience of two
neighbors in the Indian Territory.
One lined his potatoes, the other
did not. The tubers kept until they
were eaten, the unlimed rotted in
side of two weeks.
Many have let their potatoes rot
in the ground believing they would
not keep. Here is a positive remedy
against rotting at almost no ex-
pense. The southwest will vouch for
the reliability of the tests referred
to. Hundreds of our readers could
save money by trying 1.-THE

MARRIED

Miss Nina Nattin of Texarkana,
and Mr'J. Ed Foos, of this city,
were married yesterday morning at
the residence of Mrs. Ed Mcclure
on Market street, Judge Hicks per-
forming the ceremony. Only a
few friends of the couple we're pres
ent.
The bride was returning from a
visit to relatives in southern Texas
and stopped off here en- route home.
The couple we're to be married in
the near future but decided to ad,
vance the date.-Shreveport Times.
Mr., ]. Ed Foos was at one time a
money broker here, operating a
loan Office on the East Side and
running it for some ten or a dozen
months. He closed his office here
and went to Shreveport and went
into the contracting and building
business. When the war broke out
between the United States and
Spain, he enlisted in a Shreveport
company and was one of the brave
heroes who fought canned beef and
hard-tack about Chattanooga, Tenn,
until he was mustered out of ser.
vice. He returned to Shreveport
and was captured by a Texarkana
girl as the above notice shows. We
have not the honor OF knowing the
bride, but being a Texarkana lady
is a passport to both charms and
character, and we congratulate Mr..
Foos on his marriage.
