Today a man may die as soon as the

miles away, begin to talk. And over
that seven miles he must walk with
caution, with q wide interval between
him and his pals on either hand. He
must lie down at every short halt and
scratch the ground hurriedly with his
little spade at every long one, for the
great shells are sailing toward him,
and he sees by his officers eye and
hears by his commands that it is con-
sidered that he may perish at any mo-
ment and that precautions are neces-
sary to preserve him. He sees, more

LINCOlN'S DISPATCHES.
Why Many Of Them Were Dated
From the War Department.

Why Many Of Them Were Dated
From the War Department.
Surprise is often expressed by very
intelligent people that SO large pro-
portion of President Lincoln's most i'm
portant kilograms and some OF his let
ters are dated from the war depart
ment instead Of the executive mansion
and none Of them from the navy, treas
ury or other administrative bureaus.
This is generally deemed a very slngu.
lar fact, and from it writer's have
plausibly drawn the conclusion that
Lincoln personally liked the secretary
of war better than any Of the other
cabinet officers. While this indeed ap.
pears to have been true, it does not nee.
essarily so follow. He certainly held
Mr.. Seward in high regard. yet he sell
dom went to the state department.
In the circumstances 1t was not at all
singular. The explanation is easy. War
was the business Of that time, and Lin
coins eyes were always bent to the
army, especially when great military
events were impending. He habitually
haunted the adjacent war department
and army headquarters, where abode
General Halleck, his military adviser,
for news and views. Head and heart
were strenuously concentrated on the
fight. wherever it might be. His fertile
brain saw, too, the critical points in the
game oftentimes far more clearly than
some Of his so called "ablest generals"
He not only wished to know what was
going on in the field, but performed his
own part nobly. In the heat Of action
or at crucial moments his orders, sug.
gestions and inquiries were fired of
spontaneously from wherever he might
be at the moment. and at such periods
he was generally "over at the war de-
partnent" with Mr.. Stanton. That is
the chief reason why so many Of his
dispatches are dated at that depart.

Selling Cigar Stubs Is a Lucrative
business In Naples.

Buying and selling cigar stubs is
large and lucrative business in the
city Of Naples, and many persons are
engaged in it. Some Of them have
little stalls or shops near the docks,
the arsenals and the manufacturing
establishments where workingmen are
in the habit of passing to and from
their tasks. Others, with less capital,
have little stands at street corners, q
board laid across saw horse, upon
which their stock in trade is displayed,
while the petty dealers in this line Of
business exhibit their stock in little
piles upon the sidewalk. sometimes
not even newspaper being under
them.
The supply comes from The cafes,
restaurants, hotels and other public
places. Men and women pick: over the
garbage heaps and the dust boxes, and
boys run up and down the pavements
in front Of the hotels early every morn
ing looking for "snipes." Some of the
restaurant and cafe keepers sell the
privilege of picking up the cigar
stumps in their places to dealers, and
the proceeds amount to q considerable
sum during the year. In other places
it is.one Of the perquisites Of the head
waiter.
Some Of the stubs are taken to fac
tories, where they are cut up and man.
ufactured into cigarettes and smoking
tobacco, but the greater part Of them
are sold to the lower classes Of work
ingmen, sailors and dock wallopers,
who smoke them in their pipes. At
the entrance Of the navy yard. which
Is upon one Of the most frequented
streets In Naples and in a very con-
spicuous place, half a dozen Of these

smoke inside. and their wages do not
permit them to indulge in the luxury
Of cigars or even smoking tobacco at
first hand, so, for centissimo, which
is the smallest coin imaginable-one-
fifth Of cent-they buy cigar stub,
crumble it up in their hands and cram
it into their pipes.-Chicago Herald.

Douglas Island news., 1902-10-22

A scientific discovery ofgreat interest to geologists and of practical value to mining men has been made by Professor Atwood, of the University of Chicago. Professor Atwood's discovery in brief, is that the watersheds of the present period are not identical with the ice sheds of the glacial epoch and that oc- casionally the great glacier of 10000 years or so ago moved uphill with as much facility as it coasted down the canyons, carrying with it over the di- vides large masses of debris scraped up in its path, which assists in forming the moraines.
 The discovery may lead to revolu- tion in the method of prospecting. The miner who finds detached body of gold-bearing ore will not be content hereafter with seeking the mother lode in the same canyon, but will look on the other side of the divide from which the detached fragment may have been drawn by the glacier.

Several Candidates for Physician
Board of Examiners for Pensions
lsnecial Dispatch to The Times)

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4-Colonel George
E. Bowden was in Washington to-day.
and when seen by the representative Of
The Times said that, personal matters
brought him here and not political. It was
thought the matter of the appointment
of a physician for the Board of Exam
iners for Pensions at the Soldiers Home
at Hampton might have been the cause
of the Republican leaders presence in
Washington. but an inquiry at the Pen
sion Bureau disclosed the fact that he
had not been there.
1t was found that the names of several
doctors from around Hampton have been
sent to the Commissioner of Pensions.
They are: w. r. Aylett, w. R. Blakelee,
A. C. Jones. of Newport News; j. T. Bou-
telle, J. w Hoke, w. a. Picker. of
Hampton, and G.. K. Vanderslice. OF
Phoebus. The appointment will probably
be made before very long.
In speaking of the general political sit
ia ton in the Second District, Colonel
Bowden said the Republicans had come
together and were certain of putting u.
good fight against Mr.. Maynard.
