When the list was checked up at the
station it was found that only five men
responded. None of those arrested
could be identified by the witnesses, and
the entire lot was turned loose last night,
while the police at once started out on
the chase for the right man.

IRRIGATION IN AUSTRALIA.
DR.. Walter Maxwell Trying for Al
teslan Water.

DR. Walter Maxwell has gone to
work in earnest in his new home In
Queensland, and is endeavorlng to
ameliorate as rapidly as practicable
the conditions surrounding the sugar
industry there. By late dates from
Queensland we learn that he is investi-
eating the irrigating problem. The riv-
er supply does not seem to him very
promising, but still very large
amount of water can be obtained in
that way by pumping. DR.. Maxwell,
however is directing his attention to
obtaining water from underground
sources, probably independent of the
rivers, and in some localities there Is
promise of an adequate supply.
He brings a new point into the mat
ter of irrigation, however, as 1t seems
that the quality of the water that he
has been testing Is a matter of con-
siderable moment. Waters from some
thirty different sources had already
been tested, and while most Of these
were excellent, certain Of them were
near the Danger point, while in two
cases the water would actually kill the
cane and injure the land.-Louisiana

THE HAIR BRUSH.
Breeds Dandruff, Which Causes Failing
Hair and Finally Badness.

Prof. Unna. Hamburg, Germany.
European authority on skin diseases,
says that dandruff is as contagious as
any other malevo1ent disease and that
one common source of the spread of
dandruf is the use Of the same hair
brush by different persons. The way
to avoid catching dandruf or any other
disease from another's brush is to in
sist on the use of Newbro's Herpicide.
It not only kills the dandruff germ, but
it is also an antiseptic that will prevent
the catching of any disease whatever
through contagion of another's brush.

sleep and Nourishment for Children.

Sleep and Nourishment for Children.
Little children need plenty of sleep.
They should retire early, not later
than O'Clock, and should not be dis
turbed in the morning, but left to
waken naturally. The noon nap
should be continued until the child is
at least 5 years of age. Even if the
child does not sleep, the quiet rest is
beneficial, and for nervous, restless
child is necessary.
After the rest, nourishment is
needed, so this is the best time for
the afternoon lunch. The lunch
should be light, not to interfere with
the evening meal. Bread and milk. or
bread and jam, or fruit are the best
to give.
Plenty of plain nourishing food is
absolutely necessary for growing
children. The lunch between break
fast and noon, as well as the one be-
tween noon and dinner should never
be neglected.
1t is best to have the children's
dinner not later than $50. If it can
be managed, noon dinner is much
better. Where children are permitted
to dine with the family, they should
be taught not to expect everything
that is on the table. 1t is poor
Judgment to deprive the older mem.
bers of the family of certain dishes,
because they are not wholesome for
the children. Rich sauces, cakes and
pickles, salads, and all made dishes
should never be given to children;
plain cake, plain desserts, good pure
candy and chocolate in moderation
will do no harm. Fruit is always
good, but be sure it is perfect AMI
ripe; green and overripe fruit are
dangerous.-J. Belle Fanton in Ledger
Monthly.

and possessed well-developed powers
and habits of command. Totally unlike
Calhoun, Hampton's strength of
leadership lay, not in intellectual or
oratorical superiority, but in high and
forciful character, perfect courage,
and real devotion to what he con-
ceived to be the welfare of South
Carolina. Not even Calhouns lead
ership was at any time more absolute,
unquestioned, and enthusiastic than
Hampton's in 1876; and it was justly
so from democratic point of view for

hour true natural leader" and he

mond Lady.
In June of this year Richmond
young lady viii be the hostess at a
dinner in Paris to officials of the
French republic, including President
Loubet, that will be unique, even in
Paris.
The hostess will be Miss Johnson,
daughter of Mr.. B. F. Johnson, the
well-known publisher, of this city.
She has been resident in Paris Tor
about year.
1t was mentioned that Miss Johnson
will be the hostess at the dinner. She
will also prepare nearly all of it with
her own hands.
About year ago she went to Paris
and during the exposition she, and her
father as we'll, became deeply inter-
ested in that department of the United
States exhibit devoted to the prepare.
ton of articles of diet from Indian
corn. The crowds before the stand
where hot corncakes, cornpone,
batterbread and griddlecakes we're
served attracted wide attention.
Hominy and roasting ears were no
less in demand From studying the
interest in this branch of the cookery
exhibit Miss Johnson became deeply
interested in cookery generally, SO
much so that when Mr.. Johnson re-
turned to this country she was so in
sistent that he consented to allow her
to remain in the French capital and
study the art of domestic economy
generally.
Miss Johnson has studied very
diligently; indeed has become so far
advanced that she is very proud Of her
accomplishments.
On day in June Miss Johnson will
give a dinner to high officials of
France and to members of the United
States Legation. Nearly the entire
menu will be of American dishes.
Governor Tyler, for instance, will
send to Miss Johnson genuine Vir
ginia ham, which will be boiled and
served for the notabilities who do not
know how delightful to the palate is
the haunch of a porker when cured In
Virginia style. Sweet potatoes will
be served in various styles.
That there will be cornbead in every
form goes without saying. 1t is likely
that real old Virginia nanny will
prepare most of this. When on5
thinks of the good things almost
peculiar to Virginia and the United
States which Miss Johnson may
serve her distinguished guest, one
realizes what good dinner may be
expected.
Mr.. Johnson is deeply interested IN
domestic economy and will soon bring
out work on the subject prepared
expressly for his house.-Richmond

SUGGESTED BY THE CLAM.
Bivalve Gave General Mcclellan a Val.
liable Idea in Enqineerinu.


The late General George b. Nc
Clellan, U. s. A., is credited with hav-
ing made the statement many years
ago that the sinking of clans into The
sand along the ocean shore by closing
their shells and ejecting the water
from them in thin stream first sug-
gested to him the use of the water Jet
as an aid In sinking piles in sand At
any rate, as long ago as 1852 a water
jet was so used, by General Nc
Clellan's advice, in putting down the
piles for wharf and warehouse.
Water was forced through an ordinary
rubber hose, with a piece of gas pipe
on the end of the nozzle. This was
placed close to the point OF the pile on
the bottom, the jet of water scoring
the sand away from the pile and
making hole, in which the pile sunk
rapidly.
From that time on, as recently re-
corded In paper by l.. Y. Schermer-
horn before the Engineers club of
Philadelphia, the water jet method
has been similarly employed In many
different places by different persons.
In the United States, in the improve
ment OF the Mississippi and Missouri
rivers, large numbers OF piles have
boon driven for the construction of the
brush and pile bikes and in the sink

at their garments which women now

middle of the back and pulling it up
ward has gone to fashions pasture.
Nowadays the folds are gathered in
the left hand and are drawn closely all
the way across the back to the left
side, where they are held high. 1t is a
thorough enough way. Not an inch OF
material is left to sweep the ground
but it hampers the movements and Is

NEW BRITISH ARMY RIFLE.
Five Inches Shorter Than the One
Now Used.

NOW USED.
s'The new rifle about which so much
has been whispered of late" says the
London Express, has now been pro-
duced by the government armorers at
Enfield. After inspection at the war
Office the rife was sent to the school
of musketry and orders have been
given for 1000 to be manufactured
and issued to the service for further
trial before the final supersession of
the Lee-Enfield as the smallarm
weapon of the British service.
Its appearance cannot be said to
compare favorably with the existing
pattern, which is certainly a smart
looking weapon. The new rifle pre-
sents a stumpy aspect and seems to
provide fresh evidence of that sac
rifice of appearances to utility which
present war seems likely to impose.
THE somewhat equity appearance of
the new weapon is due to two causes.
First and foremost, it represents an
attempt to provide all branches of the
service with small arm of one uni
form pattern and is really a compro-
mise between the rifle and The
carbine.
1T is five inches shorter than the
existing rifle, which would suggest
that the full effectiveness of the In
fantry arm is in danger of being
sacrificed to the hardly equal advan.
tage of uniformity. For with a
diminished length of barrel the back
sight and foresight are brought much
closer together, thereby undoubtedly
increasing the possible angle of error
in aiming and causing a regrettable
loss of accuracy at the longer ranges
so common in the warfare of the
present day..
And again, the loss of reach in
a bayonet fight should unquestionably
be a consideration unless we are going
to stake everything upon the teach
ings of the South African campaign,
fought out under conditions which are
not likely to be reproduced.
Another novelty about the new
weapon is provided by the barrel,
which is entirely covered by wood
casing up to about an inch from, the
muzzle. This new feature, which may
be regarded as indispensable in the
modern quick-firing small arm, will
allow the rife to be grasped by the
hand at any part, however prolonged
or rapid the firing may have been.
Hitherto it has only been possible to
hold the barrel where the hand guard
gave protection from the heat.
The new rifle has a draw-pull
trigger and is loaded by means of a
clip"
