Our Heavy AdmIraIs.

The Navy Department statisticIans
have decided that the presence of an
admiral on board battlehhip adds so
tons to that crafts weight. In addi-
ton to the added presence of his gold
laced STAFF. the admiral must have an
extra boat for his own personal use.
two extra bath tubs, one for his own
use and one for the use Of the guests
he is supposed to entertain, and a
large number Of flags, books and in
struments that are inseparable from
the dignity OF the commander Of a
feet. The thinkers OF the department
are now engaged upon the problem Of
reducing this weight as far as possible
by cutting on such articles as can be
spared by the admiral. Up to date
they have got no further than the ex-
ira bath tub.

Norwegian Cure for Jao.

In Norway drunkenness Is punished
by Imprisonment. AS soon as a man is
incarcerated the delinquent has q loaf
and wine morning and evening. The
bread is served In a wooden bowl full
of wine, In which 1t has been soaking
for an hour. The first day the drunk
ard swallows his allowance willingly
enough. The second day 1t seems less
pleasing. At the end of eight or ten
days prisoners have been known to
abstain altogether from the food thus
pitilessly presented. This course OF
treatment finished. the drunkard, ex-
cept in rare instances, is radically

The famous Indian Springs land suit in
which A. Guthrie, of Tunnelton, Lawrence
county. and a Mrs. Brundage Of Chicago.
were the principals. has at last been set
tied, after several years Of litigation. The
courts are now through with the matter to
all appearances. and after the count of
losses the leading parties announce that
they are out of pocket over $4,000 each,
Guthrie's losses reaching nearer $4,000, he
says.
The case is one of the biggest that has
been tried in these parts for years and the
evidence showed that Guthrie and Mrs
Brundage were the victims of a gigantic
swindle, planned by man named Baxtar,
or Chicago, ana one G.. Il. McKann, of
Ohio. and another man named Lewis. These
latter parties worked up the deal which
resulted in Guthrie trading the Indian
Springs property, consisting of 235 acres
including the famous springs, to Mrs. Brun-
property valued at about $4,000. After ths
transfer of the property Guthrie discovered
that his title to the Florida property was
not as represented, as McKann, one of the
promoters, turned up With a tax title tc
the property and mortgage against 1t. as
soon as the deal went through. Guthrie Their
brought suit to declare the whole trade off
but was defeated in the Martin Circuit
Court and later in the Supreme Court, tC
which 1t was appealed.
In the meantime McKann had taken pos
session CT the Florida lard and sold the
turpentine rights, from which he realized
about $4,000 and disposed of much of tn,
timber. By this time the Indian Springs
property had been sold to John r. Walsh
an innocent purchaser, which prevented
Guthrie from getting a new hearing IL
his suit to cancel the trade which he could
have secured on newly discovered evidence
of the swindle being worked by McKanl
ct al.
Several months ago Guthrie prepared t
secure title to the Florida land, and Thu
effort resulted in a compromise by which
he gives McKann deed to the propert.
In return for very modest cash considera
ton.
Both the princir ais are heavy losers. Mrs
Bundage says she lost $4,000 on the dea
and Guthrie estimates his at $4,000. Tn
latter is wealthy resident of Tunnelton

Rome Special in London Mail.
Pope Plus X dined to-day with his friend
Dom Perosi, the composer. This is a great
departure from pontifical usage. 1t has
been the rule hitherto that the Pope shall
never dine with others than princes and
then at a slightly raised and really sep
arate table. 1t is said at the Vatican that
the new Pope intends to make other de-
partures in pontifical etiquette
On receiving the salute of the Noble
Guard his Holiness said, "Oh, don't do it
here. Do ii in public" Ii may be much
doubted, however, If the Pope will dare to
indulge in semi-Bohemian proclivities es-
pecially he has confirmed in Office most
of the existing household dignitaries Most
probably the only considerable departure
the Pope will make will be in his char
acter of a reforming ruler.
AS Plus y is a good musician and likes
Perosi, whose influence is unbounded,
measures in the direction of musical re-
form are expected. The Pope plays the
organ and piano. This is perhaps the first
time in history that musician has fol-
lowed a poet on the Papal throne.
Plus X is conscious of the nferiority of
his requirements, the Limitation of his ex-
perience, his want of travel and of ac-
quaintance with a busy life. He has lived
far from courts and camps and from great
people and is thus unable to supply the de-
fects of his common school and ordinary
seminary education.
This formed the substance of his pathet-
ic speech in the conclave when he begged
to be spared from election TO the papal
chair. Yet this speech secured him the
