THE navy department is contem-
plating a novel sort of recruiting
station. 1t will consist of a min
iature warship which will navigate
inland waters of the country, es-
pecially the interior West, where
much excellent material is believ-
ed to be available and not readily
obtainable through the stations To-
Gated elsewhere. The proposed
craft is TO be fitted like man-of-
war, with modern batteries of
quick fire guns, and to be capable
of navigating shallow streams.

JUSTICE BREWER of the supreme
court is telling good story on
himself. When one of the justices
goes on circuit, is has been Gus
tomary for the marshal of each
district to meet him with car
riage, for which no bill has ever
been submitted. Recently, how
ever, "A certain distinguished men,
Der of the court was surprised to
receive bill of S52 for livery hire
at a certain place where he had
recently been sitting. He for
warded the bill to the United
States marshal, who explained that
the comptroller of the treasury had
refused to allow it on the ground
that there was no appropriation to
pay carriage hire for justices. AS
no objection had ever been made
before, an inquiry was instituted,
which resulted in the painful dis
covery that for years the travelling
expenses of the honorable justices
of the supreme court had been
paid out of the funds provided by
congress ''for the transportation of
criminals"

THE senate committee on public
lands has favorably reported bill
providing for the entry of lands
formerly in the lower Brule reser-
vation in South Dakota. The
lands are at present unoccupied,
and are without mprovement; the
tract is located some distance from
any settlements, and there are no
towns in the immediate locality
that they are not of very much
value for agricultural purposes is
apparent from the fact that they
were formerly taken as allotments
by the Indians and surrounded by
them.

C hange comments on the fight in
the senate on the subsidy bill: "In
the struggle now going on at night
sessions in the senate over the
ubsidy bill, the opponents of that
measure have the advantage, be-
cause its advocates the plutocrats
of the senate to give ur
their dinner parties and other So
cial pleasures, which makes big
part of their lives. The people
who are fighting the subsidy bill
are not in the gay whirl to any ex.
tent, and it makes little difference
to them whether they eat theil
roast beef and pork and beans al
home or at the senate. 1t requires
a good deal of patriotism for some
of the other senators to deny them
selves good dinner, but they vii
he compelled to do it in order te
make quorum.
