time at Warren White Sulphur Springs,

ont patents in the United States and E,u-
rope to cover same, by which he IN
creases the efficiency OF heavy ordnance
The Improvement consists IL having q
number of spiral grooves in the bore OF
the gun, in which are placed small balls
the entire length of the gun. The missile
passing through the tube comes in con-
tact with the surface of balls instead OF
the interior surface of the gun. The NUM-
Der of rows and balls in each row that
will produce the least friction and yet
rake the passage smooth and even has
been determined by mathematical ealcu-
i,ttion, and the ball-bearins may be APP
Piled to any-sized gun
The balls are also placed lar enough
apart SO that the reactionary force that
causes ''kicking" is lost or neutrallzed
along these rows of balls. This is quite
an item in the firing of large guns from
vessels.
General Miles, accompanied by experts,
visited the White Sulphur Springs last
Saturday with a view. as we understand,
of establishing testing station! W. Stl-

A RESTAURANT EPISODE.
\ Sort of Straw Vote.

An advertising agent, representing q
prominent New York magazine, while
on a recent western trip, was dining one
evening in a Pittsburg restaurant.
While waiting for his order, he glanced
over his newspaper and noticed the adj
vertisement of well-known dyspepsia
preparation. Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets:
as he himself was a regular user of the
tablets, he began specializing as to how
many of the other travelling men in the
dinng-room We're also friends of the
popular remedy for Indigestion.
He says: Il counted twenty-three men
at the tables and in the hotel office l
took the trouble to interview. them and
was surprised to learn that nine of the
twenty-three made practice of taking
one or two of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
after each. meal.
One of them told me he had suffered
so much from stomach trouble tina: at
one time he had been obliged to quit the
road. but since using Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets had been entirely free from indi-
sestion. but he continued their use, espe-
cially While travelling, on account of ir-
regularity in meals and because like all
travelling men. he was often obliged to
eat what he could get and not always
what he wanted
Another. who looked the picture ot
SsAAS>
taking q Stuart Tablet afterward be-
cause he could eat what he pleased and
when he pleased, without fear of asleep
less night or any other trouble.
Still another used them because he was
subject to gas on stomach. causing pres
sure on heart and lungs, shortness of
breath and distress in chest. which he
no longer experienced since using the
tablets regularly
Another claimed that Stuart's Dyspep,
STA Tablets was the only safe remedy he
had ever found for sour stomach and
acidity; he had formerly used common
soda to relieve the trouble. but the tabs
lets were much better and safer to use.
After smoking, drinking or other excess
es which weaken the digestive organs,
nothing restores the stomach to healthy
wholesome condition so effectually as
Stuart's Tablets.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain the
NATURAL digestives-pepsin, diastase, which
every weak stomach lacks, as well as
nux. hydrastin and yellow parilla. and
can be safely relied upon as radical
cure. for every form Of poor digestion.
Sold by druggists everywhere.

The Old House to be Purchased and

Reclaimed.
For years the old Chandler estate, sit
uated at Guinea, on the Richmond, Fred
Qcicksbur, and Potomac railroad, has
been let fall into decay, and now the
grand old mansion and other buildings
of the famous place are but little more
than ruins. 1t will be remembered that
this old place is replete with historic
memories, and in the house here the
noble Confederate leader, Stonewall jack
son. died. The house in which the great
soldier passed away was not the Chandler
mansion proper, but an adjoining build
ing, and this house is to-day occupied
by 4 negro family, the only tenants
of the place. The mansion proper.is used

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2o.-Thc Reoub-

of the House have decided for Porto REQ

It commits the Republicans of the com

that discriminating duties can be laid

substitute bill, which, in effect. imposes
