AMERICAN FLAG IN CUBA.

One thing which pleasantly surprised
General Wood during his recent tour of
inspection in Cuba was that wherever
he went the Cuban and American flags
were invariably twined together in the
public decorations. In some towns
were to be seen specimens of the work
done by the children, among which
were drawings of two flags. the stars
and stripes and the Cuban flag, twined
together or eide by side. These were
- be seen in drawings on paper. and
in one town, where the mayor was
taken completely by surprise and was
mortified that he did not have time to
properly prepare for the reception of
the governor general. was to be found
on the blackboard of the school room

nags together The drawings were at

A man who is interested in one of
the biggest gushers in the Beaumont
oil fields of Texas thus describes how
one of the big wells starts:
I'VE knew some time before the
gusher was brought in that what we
hoped for was coming. The drillers
were prepared for it and had removed
their tools from the deep hole. If they
had not done that everything in the
well would have been thrown into the
air. We could hear the throbbings of
a great force below. The noise was
like the puff of monster engine,
dying away and then growing louder
than before. The puffs soon increased
to a mighty roar. and we knew that
the climax would come soon. 1 was
standing near the well with my watch
in my hand. 1t was exactly 1925
o'clock on the morning of October Is
when the first substance was thrown
out. First there was only sand. as it
is called in California, or oil rock as
they term it in Pennsylvania. Then

showing that at an unknown time the
waters and an oyster bed had been
there. 1t is the more remarkable on
account of the fact that the oyster
shells were thrown from depth of
1000 feet below the level of the sea.
After the shells came mud and frag
ments that had been made by the
drilling. We next saw SOapStone, and
this was followed by a strong flow of
gas. Suddenly the action of the gush-
er died down, but only for few mo-
ments. The same disturbing process
was repeated, and then came the oil,
shooting out almost horizontally a
distance of $50 feet The pipe was
quickly changed to an upright posi-
ton, and the column of oil, passing
through an eight-inch pipe, was 275
feet high. We let the gusher have it's
own way for five minutes, to test it
thoroughly, and then the two valves
in the pipe were turned and the flow
stopped"

new GuN FOR MIL1rIA.

Gen. Burlington chief of ordnance,
in his annual report argues strongly
against the detail system so far as con-
Germs his own department He points
to the cultivation by European coun-
tries of special ordnance experts, as
showing the necessity of making this
service a life work. He refers briefly
to the necessity of reforming the sys-
tenn of allotting contracts, pointing to
two cases where for three years and for
seven years, respectively, the depart
ment has had contracts dragging along
which it had been forced to make by
congress and otherwise.
Gen. Burlington submits a bill look
ing to the complete equipment of the
national guard with the Krag-Jorgen-
sen. He says that this rife has met
with approval but he has not been
content with that and has made a
sample rifle, much simpler, cheaper
and stronger, which will give ball
velocity of 200 feet per second more
than the existing model, and will be
equipped with a rod bayonet.
Reference is made to the disapproval
of the ordnance Department. efforts to
supply the army an advanced field
piece OF 3-inch caliber, with separate
leaders. and it is pointed out that as
a result of waiting upon the field-gun
trials the army must remain for
considerable time with what has been
called antiQuated and obsolete mate
rial. Nevertheless, this material, it is
stated has met the needs of the army
in its latest campaigns and the reports
quotes Gen. Chaffee to the effect that
the United States had the best field
battery in the world. In reference to
the clerical force in the ordnance bu-
reau, Gen. Buffin guon says: The war
with Spain and the subsequent increase
of the regular army to $4,000 enlisted
men and the volunteer army to $4,000
enlisted men caused a great increase
in the clerical work of this Office, ne
cessitating the employment of tenn
porary force under the provisions of
the acts of July z. 1898; Feb. "a, 1899;
April II, 1900, and March 8, 1901. The
increase of the work will remain per-
manent while the army is maintained
at it's present strength. and for some
time after reduction of the same shall
take place. AS these temporary clerks
are, many of them, more valuable for
permanent appointment on account of
their experience than any others could
be, and a reorganization of the perma-
nent force is much needed, the esti-
mate has been prepared with a view of
absorbing about two-thirds of the tenn
porary force into the regular force,
with proper graduation of the whole
in the matter of salaries, leaving the
remainder to continue as temporary
clerks until their services are no longer
required. The only sure method of
retaining the clerks whose services
have demonstrated their great value
to the government is to pay them a
salary commensurate with their fitness
for their positions. If this is not done
private corporations will in the future.
as In the past, make them offers which
will result in the loss of their services
to the United States. "-New York Sun

RIGHT TO COURT OF INQUIRY.


There are circumstances connected
with the discharge from the volunteer
service of Colonel Harrison that at
tracted great deal of attention at the
time. Questions arose in the public
mind which have never been satisfac-
torily answered, and the deep mystery
surrounding the incident has never
been cleared The death of President
Mckinley interrupted any immediate
righting of the wrong which had been
done. 1t is understood that Col. Harri-
son proposes to interest Mr.. Roosevelt
in the case and push the matter to a
successful termination. 1t should not
be necessary for an injured officer of
volunteers to resort to the elaborate
process to which Colonel Harrison has
been driven His request for a court
of inquiry was ignored, which was a
great mistake in itself. There is no
doubt that his recall from duty in Por-
to Rico and his discharge from the
service cast reflections upon him which
he has every right to demand shall be
removed. Mr.. Roosevelt is the kind of
man to see that the injustice is cor
rected.-Army and Navy Register.

FORT SMELLING.

Fort Smelling was an important
military post long before there was
any city of Minneapolis. The appro-
prito spot for fort was selected on
the high point of land at the con-
f1uence of the Mississippi and Mime
sofa rivers, and this was the first de-
tense against the Indian tribes which
then roamed the whole country west
of the Mississippi. When Fort SMELL
ing was established the land on which
Minneapolis now stands was part of
an Indian reservation. Little settle
ments gathered about the fort, the one
at Mendoza being the first town of
importance, and it may be appropriate
ly called the parent of both ST. Paul
and Minneapolis. The Fort Smelling
reservation lies almost midway be-
tween two great cities, which are the
focal poi1.t of great railroad systems,
affording quick means of transporta-
ton throughout vast area of country
and wholesome competition in the pro-
curement of supplies. The site is one
of great natural beauty, and the eli
mate is bracing. furnishing a place of
residence highly conducive to the

hold of the word. You may find it in

it on April %. But what is one to say
