THE MAN WITH THE BOMB.

Every big war makes it apparent that of all the fields of invention none is more attractive to cranks than the destructive. The world is full of men who have devised instruments of de- struction that will sweep armies and navies off the earth instantaneous. v. The outbreak of a war sets all of them trying to sell their marvellous inven. lions to the belligerents
 Since the beginning of the Russo- Japanese conflict the New York con- sulates of both nations have been fair ly oVerrun with cranks of this variety. At each one mans time is taken up with interviewing wilG-eyed gentlemen with new bombs, new explosives, new guns. new warlike machinery of all the impracticable varieties imaginable, each guaranteed to lure victory to perch permanently on the banners of the army that possesses it. It never occurs to these ingenious persons that there are quite as many inventive cranks in Russia and Japan as in oth- CT nations. and that each government has at it's disposal more homegrown lunacies than it really needs.
 One of these New York inventors has managed to make his story sufficiently impressive to attract the attention of the newspapers, though his invention is not at all novel. He has an airship

Winning the Battle Against Child
 hood Slavery.

Somewhat haltingly, but surely, the movement to abolish child slavery is making progress. After a long and hotly contested fight, the legislature of New Jersey has just enacted a law for bidding child labor in that state, and the bill has been signed by the gover- nor. Coincidently with this great re- form in New Jersey, the New York courts have upheld the constitution ality of the law of that state which forbids the employment of children un- der fourteen while the public schools are in session.
 The southern states, where the abuses of infant labor in the factories are still fragrant may be slow in join ing in this march of civilization, but they too must abolish child sla- very before a great while, for pub lie sentiment will not tolerate the evil
 Whatever the sins of the labor or ganizations may be, it must be admit ted that the laws against child labor laws which have been enacted solely because of the pressure from the labor unions-go far to offset the mistakes of uniOnisrn

Should Ware Be Impeached9

Our esteemed contemporary, the New York World, encounters great difficulty in reeonciling itself to the service pension system inaugurated by Pension Commissioner Ware. After quoting the section of the constitution which provides that civil officers or the United States shall be removed from office on impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery or other crimes and misdemeanors." the World says:
 Aside from the evident purpose of pension usurpation, which is the bribery of voters by money paid with out appropriation made by law, does sgot the order given for such misap- rropriation constitute high misde- aaeanor within the meaning of the sec tion quoted? Does it not render Pen sion Commissioner Ware liable to im- peaehment by the house and to trial by the senate?"
 ,The only way to get the Worlds questions answered exclusively is to have impeachment proceedings begun hg the house of representatives. The World, as the leading democratic paper of the United States, has great in- gNeMoe with congress. Why not have ss9tsse democratic member to introduce a resolution for the impeachment of Commissioner Ware? Then the question asked by the World, Should Ware be impeached?" will be answered definite ly and hnally-provided the demo- crats wish to bring the resolution to a vote. We feel sure that the repub- licans will not delay consideration of such a resolution, and will gladly go on record without delay.
 But will the democrats do as much" Are the democratic congressman ready to vote for impeachment, or would they prefer to kick up great fuss, col lectively, over the pension order, and thenindividuallya yapproveCommisstoner Wares acts in talking with their con- stituents? The World can develop very interesting situation by insisting upon the impeachment of MT. Ware, but we fear that pressure for action will cause much embarrassment to democratic statesmen in congress.

The Reclamation Service.

It is not alone at the Tonto basin that the government engineers are busy, getting ready for extensive ir- rigation works in Arizona A letter from the geological survey states that engineering parties of the reclamation service are completing the topographic surveys of the country along the Colo rado river upon scale of 1-316SO, with a contour interval of feet, the coun-, try being mapped to a 100 foot eleva- tion above low water level in the same latitude.
 Investigations are being made for a suitable dam site with diversions for canal upon the California and Ari- zona sides. A transit party is making angular locations of these canals and a canal topographic party on each side of the river is making a detailed map of the topography along the canal line on scale of one inch equals 100 feet, and a two-foot contour.
 At the Yuma dam site a number of borings for bed rock have been made recently. The angular transit lines have been continued on both sides of the stream to the Mexican border. in which work the lines were run SS miles, the levels B miles, and the pre- liminary levels, g miles.

DRESS THAT DEPENDS.

Tn spite of the existence of dressmak- CTS conventions. and notwithstanding the fact that the subject of dress has never before been given the esthetic and hygienic attention that it now re- ceives, it is generally acknowledged that the ultra fashionable gowns of to- day have rarely been equaled for un- gracefulness and unbecomingness. Some go so far as to say that they have never before been surpassed in the matter of indelicacy and impro- priety. The tight fitting skirt that is now so much affected has come in for an amount of cenSure and condemna- ton that has rarely been given to a feminine garment. Men who know lit
 tie, and care less, about the question of women's dress, and whose knowledge of what a woman has on is limited to general impressions, have received definite and disagreeable impressions

Remarkable Gunnery.

Admiral Makaroff, in charge of the fleet at Port Arthur. is now credited with remarking that during a recent skirmish with the enemy there one of the Russian shells struck a Japanese warship.
 The evident absurdity of such a statement being cabled and telegraph ed the world over is on a par with a similar dispatch sent out from Port Arthur three weeks ago, when it was set forth that the army commander there had been struck by some splint- CTS from shattered wood work on a fort.
 The Russians appear to be grasping at straws, as these puerile statements reveal. If it is a feat worth record ing that a Russian shell actually struck one of the Japanese vessels then the Russian gunners are not te be set down as experts. Perhaps 1t may in- terest Makaroff-if he ever hears of it ito know what the gunners of the American battleship Kearsarge can do with their guns. During recent prac- tice off Pensacola. so a private letter received at the navy department at Washington states, this is what the men in the Kearsarge did:
 "One thirteen-inch gun made six hits out of seven shots in five minutes and twenty seconds. An eight-inch gun made ten hits out of ten shots in five minutes and twenty seconds, and a five-inch gun made eighteen hits out or eighteen shots in two minutes"
 Out of the thirty-five shots fired thirty-four of them hit the targets. And no doubt the gunners were cha grined that they missed once. With only one shot wasted the record is considered to be the best ever made by the gunners of any warship in the world. This practice work is what makes the American gunners perfect. and the lack of target practice is what seems to have made the Russian gum ners imperfect.
 Of course the strain and excitement incident to an actual battle lessen the possibility of acurate aim, but at San tiago. during a running fight, the American gunners revealed that they made most of their ammunition count. But target practice-both on sea and on land-is just as necessary as train ing in evolution and field tactics. The men who can shoot the quickest and with the best aim are the ones who
