ARMS FOR MILITIA
ARRANGEMENTS MADE BY GEN.
CRozIER.
Will Be Ready to Distribute the Krag
Jorgenssens When the Troops
Are Ready to Take Them.

General Crozier, chief of ordnance. has
made preliminary arrangements for armins
the entire organized militia force of the
United States with the Krag-Jorgenssen
musket of the regular service, in accord
ance with the provisions of the new miiRtia
law As a means to that end he has all
ready collected about 10000 of these arms
at the government arsenals at Augusta,
Ca, Bencia, CAL, Rock Island, Ill.,, and
San Antonio Tex, and more will be shipped
to those points as needed. The guns are
manufactured at the armory at Springfield,
Mass. Nearly 81, 900 Krag-Jorgenssens have
been sent to the arsenal at Rock Island,
larger number than was sent to any other
point. The explanation Of that action is
that Rock Island is the central distributing
point for almost the entire middle west.
The plan adopted by General Crozier Is
to have the muskets at the different points
where they can be distributed to the militia
of the various states with the least posi-
BILE delay. These arms will replace the
Springfield muskets now in the hands OF

1t is stated at the War Department that
the distribution of the Krag-Jorgenssens to

necessary preliminary information has been
acquired by the adjutant general. especially
with respect to the real organized strength
of the various organizations. General Gro
zier says he put the muskets In the
hands of the miitiamen as soon as he re-
ceives the necessary information from the
War Department. Under the law the or
ganized militia is entitled to the new mus
ket and the officials of the War Depart
ment are gathering informa ton on that
point in order to determine the allotment OF
arms to the various organizations. Ac-
cording to the latest returns received by
Adjutant General Corbin. the organized
strength of the militia is 1879, including

The Curious Things that Thrive in

Mr.. Spencer, the superintendent of
the New York Aquarium, a few days
ago was busying himself by picking
a lot of sand feas from a dipper and
dropping them into a jar of anemones.
AS they fell into the water they
Strengthened themselves out and then
slowly dropped to the bottom, kicking
as they fell. A few of them alighted
on the body of an anemone, which
promptly closed up. One, unfortun-
ately, found himself, when he had set
tied, on the tentacles of me of the
anemones. These began to serve the
purpose for which they were bestow-
ed upon the anemone, and the flea, or
scud, suddenly found himself inside
the capacious nav IF the anemone,
and the life was soon squeezed out of
him.
