the recent smallpox scare began. They will return this week, it is expected, and then preparations will be resumed to give the gun it's initial test. If the test is successful the gun will be &C., cepted and 1t will be surrounded by pow erful supplements, as protectors for the rif1ed pieces.
 It is stated that there are but four guns similar to the Fishers Island gun. Two are at San Francisco and the oth- CT two are located at Charleston, 5. c. The government has found something that Is even more powerful than dy- namite, and guns must be manufac- tured to eject the more modern projec- tile.
 It will be two years yet before the Qualifications on Fishers Island are In a completed condition, and then they will be the most powerful in the coun- try. And the garrison that will have charge of the reservation will consist of at least regiment of men, It Is evil dent that Fishers Island bids fair to become the most important of all Uncle Sam's military stations, at least along the Atlantic.-New London Day.

Stocks are common among common people, but for ordinary day dress sel- dom seen on smart men, that IS, they are not good style, if one uses the word in it's strict meaning, for they are any thing but cool and comfortable More over they are cheap and look It, The flowing end tie has been little used this summer, and the ascot not at all with morning clothes The bat-Wing bow and narrow. four-in-hand or derby are the shapes most in use, though straight string ties of washable madras and linen are frequently seen on smartly dressed men and are an exceedingly good shape with a very low collar of Q dark blue hatband, white shirt With the old fashioned turn down kind.
 If one has blue serge suit he may get pretty effect by wearing with it hair line of dark blue, plain dark blue hose, either plain or with clock of the same color. This is an extremely quiet and cool looking costume for summer day, and the exact matching or color has certain style about it which dis tinguishes one from the great mass or ones fellows.

ABOUT INDIAN ARROW HEADS.

A Fine Collection Owned by Frank
 Baldwin of Watertown.
 Frank Baldwin, of the M Heminway & Sons silk factory, probably has what may be called the finest collection of Indian arrow heads in the state. Many of them were found in the locality known as Evergreen cemetery. Arrow heads are to be found there to this day are are remarkable chiefly on account of their beauty of color and perfection of shape. Old "Westbury," according to what has been related in history was many years ago the hunting grounds of a large tribe of Indians. A Watertown citizen, in speaking of In- dian anecdotes of local origin and char acter, told the reporter not long ago of his conversation when young man with an aged Indian chief, who lived in Pomperaug valley, near Woodbury. The old fellow was full-blooded red man of the forest, and visited Wood- bury only once a year. These visits were paid to the grave of the old chiefs son, courageous brave who was buried under a grassy mound on one of the farms there. The chief ar rived at the burial mound early in the morning before the sun cast Its rays over the land and remained in silent mourning upon the mound until after sunset During that time he neither ate nor drank. This same chief gave some valuable insight as to how arrow heads were made by the squaws heat ing the quartz red-hot in burning en- bers and chipping off the quartz to the desired shape by pouring water, drop by drop, upon the heated surface. He added that where one perfect arrow head was obtained dozen were spoiled in the making process. Waterbury Democrat.

Sfcontinued from First Page.)

about every Buffalonian has stock in the exposition according to his means The dollars and cents seem pretty fff1oroughly to be eliminated from the calculation now, but the work 10 De done. and the end to be achieved seem Foremost in every mans mind. They 8feel now that the exposition must be carried to gloriousy finish as laoor " patriotism and love. President Mil 8burn and Director General Buchanan were seen together yesterday. Presl- dent Milburn put this thought very strongly. He said:
 ..There must be no faltering in our rfrorts now, considering how much the l5s,iccess of the Pan- American exposition
 means in the development of closer po- Slitfcal and commercial relations pe- tween the peoples of the western hemi- Hphere That it is a policy earnestly favored by President Mckinley ana which Interested him so deeply in the < sexnosition from it's first inception. It " strange stroke of fate that the { s,,ccess of the exposition should be S4breataned by this fearful tragedy. We sho,,ld be lacking in loyalty to his memory if we did not bend all our en- ergies to crowning the work Whlch ne had so close to his heart.
 srrhere are six weeks of the life Of the nxnosition and 1t is in the full bloom of IA beauty and interest. Every feature of 1t had been developed to it's highest
 no;nt and it is being operated on a more elaborate scale than ever. It is of 1,ia6 activities and entertainments, more adequately carrying out its aims and purposes. It Sis a national enterprise and should De < gsunnorted as such for the credit or our country as the leading nation of this hennisphere. That support, feel cer- tain it will have in fullest and over flowing measure
 All state days and other special days set heretofore for this month and post nnned on account of the sad events at lending the tragic end of the president ara now being reassigned and taken up hv the different states and localities in tarested with increased interest and a r,,rnose on the part of every one to ,,oolre them more brilliant and splendid efn every way than would have been the case had they been carried out as orig tuallv intended. He added that the sonlv problem now confronting the ex- snosition was how to find days enough ayuithir the closing weeks to adequately take care of the many attractions and features now being planned. He pre- dicts a great attendance during the f,,onth of October, and one far in eX- cess of the highest estimates that have been made by the most sanguine. In answer to the inquiry as to whether or not Buffalo could take care of the crowds that were coming, he said there was no difficulty whatever in this re- gard; that Buffalo could easily care for two hundred and fifty thousand strangers every day comfortably and at reasonable prices.

NEED OF A WORLD ETHIC,"

A profoundly interesting article by Graham Wallas occurs in "The Inquir- er'' for the last week in June. It is en- titled "Religion and Empire, and it is an attempt to discover whether there exists at this moment a world ethic,' moral conception of world relations corresponding to the new world poli- ties" He comes to the conclusion that it is almost impossible to answer yes to that question. He points out how there Is not even Q working rule in the British empire for dealing in the same way with populations of the same kind; how the traditions which obtain in h. dia and in the Soudan, owing to the genius of Burke and the example of many of the heroes of Anglo-lndian statesmanship, of ruling the natives in their own land, is directly contradicted in South Africa, where the natives are not allowed in practice to own single acre.
 Tt is easy" he says, flor men to speak of themselves as practical politi- clans, and to despise philosophy and ethics and religion as impractical, but the present state of things in China is the clearest possible proof that the civilized world cannot possibly exist

A CHINESE EDITORIAL.
Sarcasm of a Harassed Editor in a Ma
 tive Paper

Sarcasm of a Harassed Editor in a Ma
 tive Paper.
 There are many people besides Dr.. Parker who regard an editors position as a "soft thing and a certain num- Der of these persons have made their appearance in unaccustomed China, where they are expending much time and labor in the correction and godly admonition of the editor of a native pa- per, whose robust reform proclivities are offending against the immutable laws of his land. Driven at length to defend himself, the harassed journalist addressed to his critics brief editorial, of which the following translation gives an idea of the Chinese conception of sarcasm, erroneously declared to be on-existent by many travellers. After a preliminary acknowledgment of falli- bility, the article proceeds:
 Tn future nothing which may be de- scribed as new will appear in these col umns, and thereby prevent peoples un- derstandings from being enlightened. None but bigoted members of the con- ceited literati will ever be called to as-
  confine ourselves to the affairs of the last dynasty, carefully avoiding all ref erenee to the family that now rules China. We shall give our special at tention to fortune telling, witchcraft and kindred subjects of truth, of which no one has any doubt. A place of su- preme importance will De given to the revered teachings of geomancy, and we shall show that mans good luck or misfortune is controlled by the stars. We shall respectfully beg his majesty to observe the old customs, and that the mandarins follow their excellent and time honored methods of transacting business. We shall resist with all our strength every attempt to introduce re- forms. and lest we should be tempted to record any current events we resolve from this time forward to dispense with the service of all reporters as useless waste of money. We hope in this way to earn the goodwill and support of all our readers, firmly believing that if we faithfully do according to this honest and admirable advice the benefit will be manifested to all."-Pall Mall Ga Zette,
