chairman of the committee on military
affairs, and the spirited debate which
followed developed antagonism between
the committees. The amendment at
which Mr.. Cannon aimed was that
which increased the appropriation for
military posts from three to four mill
lion dollars.

In the SENATE

Wash'r gton, May 22-Before the SEN
ate resumed consiC ration OF the Phil
ippine bill yesterday IL adopted a reso-
luton congratulating the republic Of
Cuba on its entry into the family Of
independent nations and the secretary
OF state was directed to transmit the
resolution to the president of the new
republic.
Mr.. Wellington Of Maryland opposed
the pending Philippine measure and
said the action of the United States in
the islands was indefensible as the at
tack Of the hordes of hell upon God.
He declared that above the army and
the war department and the president
were the American people, and in his
Judgment, they were responsible for
the condition Of affairs in the Philip
pines because they had placed the doll
Ia, above the man. ....
Mr. Bacon again denounced the con-
centration policy pursued in the Phil
ippines.

lppine question was made I'm the SEN
ate yesterday by Mr.. Hoar of Massa-

are Well understood, but his expression
or them yesterday was profoundly in
teresdng and even impressive. When
the venerable senator began to speak
every senator at the capitol was in his
seat, and for the two hours and a
half that his address consumed he was
accorded the most careful attention,
not only by his colleagues on the floor.
put also by the people in the thronged
gallerles Mr.. Hoar denounced the at

Withdraw from the Philippines and per-

re SHARPLY arraigned Gen. Funston for

OF Aeuinaldo and intimated strongly
that mad the senate been aware of the

hoped that, as the irreyocahle step had
not been taken by the United States,
better counsels would yet prevail AMI
mat this government would leave the
Philippines.

A WHIP BOW.

How TO Construct This Graceful and
Powerful Weapon.
This graceful and powerful weapon
is like an ordinary longbow. with the
exception that the bowstring is made
fast to only one end, after the manner
of the whiplash; where the whiplash
terminates in snapper the bowstring
ends in Il hard, round knot. Tho ar.
row is made like any other arrow,
either with blunt end or pointed
spear point In one side of the ar
row a notch is cut (l1ig, a., the bow
string being slipped into this notch.
The knot at the end of the string pre-
vents the arrow from slipping off until
thrown by the archer, who, taking the
butt Of the whip bow in his right hand.
holds the arrow at the notch with his
left hand; then, swayng his body from
side TO side, he suddenly lets go with
his left hand, at the same time extend
ing his right arm to It's full length
from his side. This not only gives the
arrow all the velocity 1t would require
from the bow, but adds the additiona,
force Of sling, thus sending the pro
jectie greater distance. In some sec

Atmospheric Pressure.

IL you desire TO obtain a vivid idea
OF the force OF atmospheric pressure
try the following simple experiment:
Place an ordinary wooden ruler on
a table In such a manner that half Of
IT will project beyond the edge Of the
table, and then over the table ana the
portion OF the ruler thereon lay d
smooth sheet OF paper
Now, II you strike the exposed part
OF the ruler, Il will IN nine cases OuI
OF ten break IN hair, and yet the sheet
Of paper on the table will neither be-
raised nor moved IN the slightest from
IT'S position. The simple reason Is be-
cause the atmospheric pressure on the
paper is more than sufficient TO cGun
terbalance the force OF the blow which
Is struck az the ruler
BY means OF simple experiments like
this one can learn great deal Of sci
fnee.

'AlI About Amerinfl.

Most Of US have smiled at the met
rical record left by the historian OF
Table mountain concerning a particu-
larry strenuous session held by the
Society Upon the stanislaus. You will
remember that the debate had to do
with fossil bones, that It became heat
ed because Of the insinuatious Of one
Jones that the rare animal recon
stucted by the Stanlslaus discoverer
owed its skeleton to one Of his lost
mules and that in the ensuing discus
sion Abner Dean OF Angels was more
or less seriously injured by a chunk
of old red sandstone.
But this was told of the days when
our science and our manners were in
the rough. OF course even now we
often discover prehistoric animals
which, as we afterward learn, never
existed. but we know mule bones
when we see them. And we have
learned TO hurl shafts of sarcasm in
stead Of paleozoic remnants.
Still there is room for Improvement.
We read with reminiscent smile Of the
recent dolngs OF quite modern scien-
lists who met the other day In New
York to read to each other papers on
various topics connected with research
in fields designated by impressive,
polysyllabic names. These gentlemen
indulged In what Is described as IA
long heated and somewhat acrlmonl-
Gus dispute" over the admission or re-
lection Of the word "Amerlnd," the
name being intended TO designate col.
lcctiycly all aborlglnes Of the western
hemisphere.
Probably the average unsclentific
mind will wonder that very learned
gentlemen should become so disturbed
by the coinlng Of new word as to
lose their tempers and call each other
numes. Most of us agree with Truth
