ARMY AND NAVY WAR GAME
Gig Balloons VIII Watch For the
NarsiipS.

Gig Balloons VIII Watch For the
Warships.
The most spectacular feature OF the
maneuyvlS OF The fleet in sham attack
on the land GcrcnsrS of New York
harbor will be the use OF balloons by
the signal corps, says Washington
lispatch to the New York journal
,Dne balloon will have capacity OF
$1,000 cubic feet and probably Will be
used at Fishers island. Eloycn others
will be disposed along tie coast from
New York t. NarragaESctt. The BAL
looms will be used both by night ana
day.
The object is to get advance news or
the sigSting Of the feet and signal the
forts of the approach of Admiral HiS-
Cinson and the warships. Balloons
were used in the Shafter campaign
against Santiago, and they were used
in Washington forty years ago to To-
cate the enemy across the Potomac. l.
is said, however, that Skaters bal
loon was OF more real advantage TO
the Spanish than to the American
forces.
The signal corps will make the night
Of the attack OH Long Island one of a
remarkable fireworks display. The
corps has invented system OF signals
Of varicolOrpd rockets which can be
read more easily and rapidly than the
wigwag of the ship signals. The sig
nal service men in the balloons, 1000
or .. 800 feet in the air, will, they think,
catch IIigginson thirty or forty miles
out at sea. They will then begin their
aerial telegraphing by rockets TO the
forts.
The real interest in the game now
appca.s to be to learn what HigginSOn
has up his nautical sleeve to counter
on the elaborate preparations which
have been made to keep him ia sight
ell the time.
There are whispers at the navy de-
vices which will astoniSh the men in
the balloons He certainly will not
try to run in with his searchlightS III
action, and it is Il dangerous undertake
ing to steam in with lights out He
may, however, display lights from YES
sells which are not coming in at all
and take the chances with his war
ships with a minimum of light. The
balloonists may definitely locate n
mock squadron Of small boats with
lights, while the Alabama, the Kear-
sarge, the Massachusetts and Indiana
may be turning" some other forts
than at New York or in fact be actu-
ally passing the entrance to the sound.
Landsmen at Washington say that
the navy people will be stopped at
every turn, and the navy people say
that there are some surprises in store,
due to the ingenuity Of Captain Swift
and the general naval board.

MEETING OF
BOARD OF TRADE
Held in This City Last Night Was
Largely Attended.
SEVERAL PROPOSITIONS BEFORE BOARD
For its Consideration and Out of Them All We
Will Probably Secure One or More. SIS
tersviIIe Will Certainly Get New
Plant This Fall.

The called meeting Of the men,
bers of the Board of Trade and
citizens was well attended last
night and was enthusiastic and
earnest. Tie Board has before it
at this time three or four PROPOSE
tons ,all of which are reasonable and
we feel confident we will get one
or perhaps two plants out of the
lot.
At the present stage of the bust
ness we are not at liberty to publish
any of the de- ails of the PROPOSE
tons as committees are at work
getting gas rates and other mat
tiers, but we do feel sure we will
get one plant and may be two.
The Board of Trade has spent a
good deal of time listening to prop
ositions from men who turned out
to be rank frauds, but up to date
the Board has made no mistakes
and it Is better to 60 slow and
make substantial progress than 1t
would be to 20 fast and secure fac
tories that would prove to be
frauds. We hope In a very few
days to report at least one more
plant added to our city. Just as
soon as 1t can be published the
people will know just what Is 60
Ing on. In the meantime when an
other meeting of the Board IS
called, come out and take part In

It is a great affection for a woman to
have her face dis6gured by pimples or
anv form of eruptive disease. 1t makes
her morbid and sensitive, and robs her
of social enjoyment. Disfguring erup-
tons are caused by impure blood, and
are entirely cured by the great blood
purifying 1nedicine-Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t removes from the
blood the poisonous impurities which
cause disease. 1t perfectly and pernan-
emily cures scrofulous sores, eczema,
letter, boils, pimples and other eruptiye
diseases which are caused by the blood S
impurity. 1t increases the action OF
the blood-making glands and thus in
creases the supply of pure rich blood.

NEW USE FOR THE TELEPHONE
Man Arrested, Pleads Guilty and Is Fined
and the Fine Paid Through

Washington, Ind. Dec. 10.-Mar-
shall Daniel Chambers, Of Elnora, a
small town in the north part of the
county, has found new use for the
telephone. He had a warrant for the
arrest of John Ketchem, a farmer, and
was about to 60 to the farmers home,
seven miles away, when Ketchem call
ed the marshal by telephone and said:
"Say, Mr.. Chambers, have you got
warrant for me?"
'Yes, SIR" replied the officer. Il have
one charging you with intoxication."
Read it," replied Ketchem. The Off
Ger did so and then said: You may
consider yourself under arrest, and l
hereby release you on your own recog-
nizance"
''All right" replied Ketchem: now
get the the squire, as I want to plead
guilty to that charge" The officer
called Squire Hastings and Ketchem
pleaded guilty and the justices fines
and costs amounted to S10.50. Ketch-
em then called for a merchant in the
little town and had him pay the
amount of the bill The justice wrote
paid" across the book and the case
was over.
