MATCHAN GETS
SURVEYORS JOB.
Sop for Minneapolis Man
Who Wanted to Be
Oil Inspector. -


The expected happened last even
that he had decided to appoint George
general of logs and lumber for the Sec
ond district of Minnesota.
The position has been held for the
past two years by Andrew B. Robbins,
CT Minneapolis, and up to few weeks
ago Mr.. Robbins, as well as his friends,
were confident that he would be reap
pointed to succeed himself.
George L. Matchan is prominent in
Minneapolis politics, and during the
last campaign was chairman of the
Republican county committee.
It is claimed by the leading politi-
clans of Hennepin county that it was
due solely to the work done by Match
an that the county gave Van SAINT
1000 majority. How much there is in
the claim makes but little difference,
seeing that Matchan has landed the
plum He could have had the oil in
spectorship but as there was ques-
ton about the job only paying $500 a
year the Minneapolis man gracefully
declined. The compensation of the Of
fee which he will get JAM is in fees,
and it is estimated the berth is worth
about $4,000 per year.
Matchan has been one of the man
ayers of the Johnson forces in the
speakership contest, and the an
nouncement of his appointment as sur
veyor of logs and lumber is expected
to have it's, weight in the fight. AT
least that is the claim made by those
who are booming Johnson for speaker.

with his left eye torn out and hanging
down his cheek. It was too badly lacer-
ated to put back into the socket, and
so he lost it altogether.
After it was healed again poor
Punch did not look like himself at all.
Punch knew this as well as anybody,
for he was in the habit of looking at
himself in the glass, and had discover
ed that Someting was wrong. He
would go to his master and look up
mournfully, but with such intensity as
to force the attention of the doctor. to
his looks, then trot back and look into
the glass at himself, and back to DR..
Johnson again. Now the doctor was
more than humane, and so he thought
sfWhy not a dog as well as a man? He
shall have a glass eye if 1 can match
his own"
1t took some time to do this, but
finally it was obtained. 1t was not
necessary to chloroform Punch, for he
is a good dog and does as he is told.
He showed his good breeding by
standing perfectly still, with never a
murmur, while DR.. Armstrong held him
still enough to have the eye put in,
and then both doctors bandaged his
head up until he had become accus-
toned to the feeling of the eye in his
head.
But they need not have worried for
fear he would claw it out, for Punch
knows as well as they do just how
much that eye has improved his ap-
pearance. He never tires of looking at
himself in the mirror, and always
jumps back to his master after each
new inspection of his glass eye and
barks and frisks about joyously in his
attempts to thank him for the addition

WAR DISPATCHES TO BE
CARRIED IN BOMBS
Messages Will Be Placed in Cannon
and hurled to Destination.

and hurled to Destination.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 10.-One
of the most interesting suggestion re-
Gently submitted to the military au-
thorities is that made by Capt. Hardin
Beverly Littlepage, at present employ
ed in the division of naval war records
in the navy department. It is new
method in the forwarding of disptches
in the time of war, a system by which
time will be almost obliterated, while
there will be no danger of the courier
falling into the hands of the foe.
The means is an ordinary cannon,
from which dispatch boom" can be
fired to the distance to which a she'll is
sent. The projectiIe is a cylinder or
sphere SO constructed as to insure its
flight, it's explosion at the proper time,
it's breaking into harmless fragments,
and at the same time unfolding trail
ing streamer of any color preferred con-
tanning the message.
A dispatch at night could be made Of
luminous ribbon, so as to be readily
found in the darkness, while the shell
itself would be SO pyrotechnic in char
acter that it would plainly indicate its
course while in the sky, and be easily
seen at its explosion. The shell, which
can be timed. so as to explode at any
point desired, is so arranged that when
the explosion takes place the sides of
the prOJecC1Ie Will IalI apart, releasing
the ribbon on which the message is
written and allowing it to trail on the
ground.
This method will obviate the difficult
ty which so hampered both armies
during the Civil war. Captured couri-
ers have been the reason Of enc branch
of the army being delayed or routed
through their ignorance of orders
which were intercepted, while the bad
results of such orders falling into the
hands of the enemy cannot be overes-
timated
Had the French during the siege of
Paris by the German army employed
such methods, they could have sent
messages over the heads of the enemy
right into the hands of friends. The
Cenfederates could have signaled over
the Union line in the Civil war at the
assault on Fort Fisher, while at the in
yes tment of Fort Morgan, after Farra-
CUTS fleet had passed inside, and the
fort was entirely cut off from the Con-
federates, the latter could have sent
dispatch booms over the Federal lines
without a single message being inter-
cepted.
At present the navy is experiment.
ing with wireless telegraphy, which, of
course, can be used as a means of COM
munication even with an enemy inter-
vening, but there are many points
about the bomb which render it effica-
cious in places where the telegraph
could not be conveniently utilized.

Mr.. JOHNSON JUST WANTS HIS MONEY
BACK FOR The MARRIAGE LICENSE


Sylvester Johnson, a colored saloon
porter whose home is on Concord
street, was a visitor at the office of the
clerk of courts yesterday evening,
where he went to secure the return
Of 50 which he had paid for a mar
riage license last July which has never
been of any use to him. When in
formed by Clerk Bazille that the
money could not be refunded fer
marriage license whether it had been
used or not, Johnson became indignant
and Insisted that as the license was as
good as it was the day he bought it,
there was no reason why it should not
be taken back and the money refund
ed.
In spite Of Johnson's view the money
was not forthcoming, and he left the
courthouse still in possession of Il
license which he can never use, since

past the schoolhouse, and when she
passed it was recess time. She looked
at the children and saw her own baby

a car coming from the opposite direc-
ton and getting off the one On which
she was riding, went to the school yard
and called her daughter. The little one,
recognizing her mother. fell sobbing
into her arms. The school bell rang
just then and all the other children
went into the building. while Mrs

July %, all preparations having been
made for the marriage of Johnson to

learn that his prospective bride had
departed that afternoon with Calvin
Boyer, having informed her family be-
fore her departure that she liked
Boyer the better of the two and in
tended marrying him. Miss Carter had
left note for Johnson informing him
that she did not love him and never
expected to see him again.
Boyer, the successful suitor, is a
porter on a Pullman car, with a run
out of Chicago. and since their mar
riage the couple have been living in

FAMOUS -RATTER DOG
HAS A NEW GLASS EYE


Lost One Optic in a Fight, but Now
Looks as Well as Ever.
NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-f you think
dogs are not as proud of their beauty
as real people, you should make the
acquaintance of Punch, beautiful fox
terrier, of New York city, with a pedi-
gree as long as your arm and full of
champions. Punch is famous ratter,
his record reaching 127 last week. Per-
haps this is due to his new acquisition,
a glass eye. Certain it is that his en-
ergy was greatly increased after it was
put in, although no one spretends to
say that it had anything to do with his
rat catching more than that of its in
fiuenee over his previous melancholy.
Punch had been in fight with a
