CARRYING THEIR CARTRIDGES.
For This Purpose the Beers Use n

Their Native Tongue

For This Purpose the Beers Use n
Receptacle Called q Bandolier in
Their Native Tongue
The ordinary Boer method of carry
ing cartridges, as is we'll known, is in
a bandolier, either fitted for single
cartridges or, in the case of the Maui
ser, to hold clips Of five. The former
system has been widely adopted al
ready by our troops. But the plan for
quick-loading and the perfection Of a
cartridge-carrier must be awarded to
the waistcoats which were in use by
the better class of Beers. These are
made Of khaki and supplied with
tWenty-four pockets in several rows,
closely touching one another, and each
containing a clip full of five Mauser
cartridges. This waistcoat has only
to be seen for it's advantages to be in
stantly appreciated. The weight is
evenly distributed, the cartridges are
easily got at and not liable to be lost,
and, lastly, the whole surface of the
!. closely packed cartridges forms a pro,
tective shield over the heart and lungs
by no means. to be despised. for, al
though not proof against a direct hit
it would probably turn many a bullet
striking at an angle.-SaturGay Re

Girls Essay ON Boys,

At "a recent school examination for
girls, this composition was handed in
by a girl of twelve:
i The boy is not an animal, yet they
can be heard to considerable dis
lance. When a boy hollers he opens
his big mouth like frogs, but girls hold
their tongue till they are spoken to,
and then they answer respectable and
tell just how it was. A boy thinks
himself clever because he can wade
where the water is deep. When the
boy grows up he is called a husband,
aand then he stops Wading and stays
out nights, but the groWn-up girl is a
widow and keeps house. New York

porated in this bill he would have to vote
against sixteen judges.
Senator Warren did net desire to an
tagonize the amendment, but he thought
that it might be construed to work an
injustice on the judges.
Senator Webb offered an amendment to

Senator Smith thought that these
amendments we're not germanie to the bill
and ought to be in a separate bill.
Senator Glenn moved to recommit the
bill to the Judiciary committee with
instructions to report it back tomorrow
morning. He thought that this would
satisfy all sides.
Senator Woodland said that this would
accomplish nothing, the bill had been
fully considered by joint committee. He
appreciated the bold statement of Sena-
tor Brown, but he wanted the Senate to
know that no lawyer here would hcsi-
tate to speak out if he believed that there
were any such abuses by the judges. The
proper place for such an amendment was

Johnston had introduced and he would

Senator Glenn rose to a point of order
that the question was on recommitting
the bill.
Senator Woodland said that was what
he was opposing.
Senator Glenn demanded the ruling of
the chair. President Justice said debate
was on the motion to recommt and re-
marks must be confined to that.
NO PAY FOR EXTRA TERMS.
Senator Woodland then concluded his
argument and Senator Morrison said re-
reference would gain nothing, the Senate
could adopt the Brown amendment now
if it wanted to, the only objection being
that it would make the bill read little
clumsy and appear out of place.
Are you willing to support the amend
ment?' asked Senator Glenn
Yes, replied Senator Morrison.

Senator Brown, "alI | want is TO be

Senator Morrison would not agree to
this and argued for the bill. saying that
Judges were worked too hard now and
there was little or any room for criticism.

The Senate Immediately took up the
House bill TO increase the number of
Superior court judges TO sixteen. Sena-
tor Aycock thought that the bill should
be deferred until Senator London re-
turned, since he had offered an amend
ment which the Senate had not acted
upon. He did not want to antagenize the
bill, however.
Senator Woodland wanted no delay, since
the committee ought to begin work on

Senator Smith said that he had today

Code so that no judge should receive pay
for holding extra terms of court un-
less forty weeks of court had already
