place is a free pike road. and counting the
pike roads that enter the town and inter-
sect other roads near the town there are
eleven well-built roads.
Four or five proposed steam and electric
railroads are being talked of for this place.
The right of way has been secured for some
of these roads. and there is a strong prob

roads will be built in another year. While
only one road passes through here. there
are no better facilities for trave N any

THE CATS.
A echanica Tin Feline Scattered
the

London Express.
A genius hailing from North London
has been struck with a brilliant concep-
ton for Kidding back gardens and out
house roofs of philandering cats. 1t con-
sists of nothing more than the invention
of a fearsome automaton tom cat made
up of a tin frame and covered with a fur
coat.
Tom" is as black as the darkest night,
with a stiff black tail standing up de-
family in the air, and a ghostly look in it's
sightless eyes, which, when reused to an
ger, send for a light calculated to make
even Ulysses tremble. This baneful glare
is produced by a four-volt electric bat
terry slowed away in that portion of
Toms" anatomy generally occupied by the
digestive organs.
The general principle of construction,
according to the British inventor, is based
upon powerful ~clockwork, released by a
lever when the tail of the animal is moved.
The clock works a pair of bellows, with
two loud screeching reeds, at the same
time forming contact to light the lamps in
the eyes, and forcing outwards a dozen
long needle points which come up through
the skin of the back. The tail also acts
as a trigger, and releases a hammer
formed of the lower jaws of the cat, which
explodeS two PERCUSSION caps in the mouth.
One night an experiment was made. The
clockwork was wound up and the beast
placed in a back garden. In due course a
ferociOuS cat of loose character and with
chips of his ears walked up to the stranger

That is, at least. the nearest which can

source. If the plan is carried out success
fully Limantour will unouestionably be the
successor of President Diaz when his term
of office expires.
The monetary problem is one upon which
the best minds of Mexico have been en-
gagged for years past. 1t is only for the pur-
pose of exchange that any departure il de-
sirable. The silver mines of Mexico seem to
be practically inexhaustible. Twenty-Five
thousand tons of silver ore are turned daily
into the enormous smelter at Monterey.
where the Mexican mint is located. Con-
trary to belief in the United States that a
silver basis is impracticable there Is evil

has invariably met with protests from the
citizens. If more room is TO be furnished
they prefer that a separate and distinct
building be erected and that the contour
of the present structure be in no wise
changed. The building was commenced in
the autumn Of 1s47, after a committee had
completed all the arrangements for its con-
struction. Andrew l.. Burke was given the
contract. TO make the bricks at $3.50 per
1000. or $40 per LEGO for those necessary in
the columns. The work continued until 1850.
when the building was completed and
turned over to the county. Its cost was
over $1,000.
The citizens are possessed of a spirit that
prompts them to grasp every opportunity
offered for the advancement of the town.
Let a railroad possibility materialize. and
forthwith a public meeting will be called
and ways and means discussed and money
put up to promote the prospective railroad.
A company was recently organized here
to make search for gas and oil and other
minerals. a hole was drilled 10 a depth of
nearly HOO feet, but the company has
gained only a dry hole. This, however. did
not cause the company to throw up its
hands and say quit, for already it is look
ing for another location to drill a well and
raising the necessary funds to defray the
expenses of further development.
The town, while making no great claims
from a manufacturing standpoint, is never
theless supporting four or five factories
that furnish employment for a great many
men.
The facilities for agricultural pursuits
and for the culture of small fruits of all
kinds are as good as can be found any
where. This is particularly true of the
small fruit industry. Hillside land that
could be bought a few years ago for 50 an
acre is to-day in thriving orchards that
could not be bought for $1,000 per acre.
There is. however, upland ground of this
kind not set in fruit to be yet had at a
very reasonable figure, and the small fruit
industry promises TO be the leading money
producer of the county.

officers to see that the child is doing well.
The work in the Children's Guardians

manner and the training which the children
get makes them well fitted for entrance
into any permanent home. There is a WELL
regulated school course under the direction
of the Indianapolis School Board and also
a kindergarten in the home. The children

about the place happy. "They are always

sents a beautiful sight. The water is i'm

That the air and water of Paoli arc con-

1t has been said that Paoli uses more
paint each year than any other town of its

policy will be not unlike that of the
Naval War College at Newport in its es-
sential features, and together with that
school, as officers of both branches of the
service believe. a new joint army and naval
board and the newly constituted staff of
the army should bring about harmony of
action to a degree heretofore unknown.
THE WORK 1T WILL DO
1t is very probable that before the end
of September definite orders will be issued
on the more important points to be consid-
cred by the college. For more than a year
past the War College board has been i'm
performance of many of the duties i'm
posed by the order which created the War
College, particularly i'm the matter OF super
vision of military education throughout
the army, and in addition has handled
many matters formerly general staff mat
ter. A further expression of its work as
herein indicated will carry to completion
the broad and full plans contemplated by
the secretary of war.
II Is nut 10 ne eApeCteu tHdt the young
gentlemen who step from cadetship rank at
West Point will be alone subjects of at
tention by the War College instructors.
Favors will not be unequaily distributed
by the new army college, even though
some may be likely to regard it as some
thing in the nature of a sequel to West
Point education. That, of course, makes
any man fit to be an officer after he has
passed all the tests of discipline ard edu-
cational requirements and graduates and
comes out in the world with shoulder straps
on. The college will aim at least to the
perfection Of fitness and in thus directing
it's work will give attention to the man
who comes into the army, having passed
along the promotion line from high pri-
vate in the rear rank" to first sergeant,
thence to a dashing of somewhat grizzled
second lieutenant.
1t is not generally known that the War
College will take in, in addition to the
Military Academy at West Point, the spe-
cial service school at several places. In
the first place, there is a general Service
and Staff College at Fort Leavenworth,
KAN; then there is the Artillery School at
Fort Monroe. Va; the Engineer School of
Application at Washington Barracks, in
the District of Columbia; the School of
Submarine Defense. at Fort Totten, n.
Y; the School of Application for Cavalry,
at Fort Riley, Kan, and the Army Medical
School at Washington. Surely. the entire
thing presents an equipment that is not to

BOUND TO BROTHER BY COURT.
Curious Sentence Imposed by a Judge
i'm
Atlanta Constitution.

<AtidHtd SOuStllullOD.
A long as you live or as long as your
brother lives, you are to devote yourself to
his welfare and comfort. If you should
marry, your first duty will be this brother.
Nothing must stand between you and this
duty; failing in Ii, you Will be ~arraigned
and sent to the penitentiary."
This is the remarkable sentence passed
upon William Windt, who, in a drunken iii,
slashed his brother Charles across the eyes
with a razor, binding him for life. The
scene in the courtroom was dramatic. The
mother of the two men and the blind man
pleaded will Judge Brown for leniency.
The defendant himself suggested the PEN
atty, and after long consideration the judge
agreed to the bargain. William Windt has
given a heavy bond and will report regu-
larly to the court. If he fails at any time,
except through sickness or accident, to
care for the blind man, the charge which
was not stricken from the books, will be
enforced. 1t is believed the case is without
a precedent and meets with the general
approval of the public.
This sentence, which seems to be based
upon justice, recalls an attempt made
some years ago TO enact a law based upon
these lines. 1t is proposed, for instance,
thereby depriving a woman and her chill
dren of their protector. instead of being
hanged or imprisoned, the criminal should
be put to work where he could produce the
most money, and this money was to be
devoted to the support of the family he had
wronged. Incendiaries who had caused loss
to other men were to be imprisoned, or
worked on the roads. canals, any where, i'm
fact, and the proceeds of their toll used
TO reimburse the man who had suffered
loss. AS matters now stand the criminal
is occasionally punished. but there is no
recompense for the victims of his crime.
The State absorbs the profits of the prison
er's toll, but the widow and orphans must
shift for themselves. This proposed law
never explained ii was not pushed and
has dropped out of sight.
