"The solemnity of n military eXecu.

who enlisted in the Union army at the

ed to be shot. He had fought like a
demon in the engagement which result
ed in his being made n prisoner for he
knew we'll what his fate would be If
taken. His execution was the most
mournful ceremony ever witnessed,
and nothing ever seen on the stage
was more theatrical-the procession to
the scene Of death, the band in advance
playing a dirge, the coffin, with the
prisoner sitting upon it; the guard III
the rear and brigade of cavalry form
ed in a hollow square. The condemned
man, sitting on his coffin, met his fate
like a hero, without exhibiting ire
NOR of fear, and those who witnessed his
death were far more excited than he.

ageous lad should be sacrificed, but il

THE COCOANUT PALM.
1t Plays an Important Part In Life
and In Law In CeyIon.

When a traveller gets his first sight
get it. He sees the trees springing up,
as 1t were, from the water In which
their shadows are reflected. Besides
being beautiful ornaments to land
scare :. csc " I,S are among the most
i. L.! :,.l,s which nature has given to
the inhabitants of tropical islands. In
supplying actual necessities and in the
number of useful purposes to which it
can be applied bamboo takes first rank,
but the palm comes next. To many of
the people of Ceylon the cocoanut trees
nre everything, and their very lives de-
pend upon them. The tree supplies
most of their wants, besides giving
them valuable commercial products.
In this island there are estimated to
be nearly 100000 palm trees, and
among the poorer classes a mans
wealth is estimated by the number Of
trees he owns. They form the most i'm
portant asset of his estate and by will
are generally divided among his fam
lily. AS one of the important traits of
the Cingalese is his love of litigation,
one can readily see what an important
payt the palm tree plays in the law
cases there. There is Il case on record
in which the two thousand five hun
dred and twentieth part of Il grove,
containing only ten trees, was the sub
ject of dispute. One of the greatest
difficulties which the engineers had tc
encounter in building railroad across
the island was to determine the owner
ship of the palm trees. The ramifica-
tions of relationships and the fraction
nj claims set up We're most difficult
to understand and disentangle.

| ri HAT the element in congress opposed to any
~ change whatever in the tariff laws at this time
| or any time in the future, is still quite conf
dent of being able to perpeually hold the power to
make the tariff schedules Interchangeable, shown by
the words of some of the leaders recently.
g All this talk about putting duty coffee
and tea and increasing the internal revenue tax on
beer is nonsense. 1t probably originated from the
same source the story about an increase in the
presidents salary. There is necessity for chang
ing the present revenue raising laws in order to get
more money. The treasury has plenty of money
as things are"
This statement made by Representative
Payne, chairman of the house committee on ways
and means. Chairman Payne says there is no oc-
casion for the business world to give itself uneas-
ness over stories of tariff legislation printed at this
period of the year. That matter, he explained, was
settled for the time being at the conference at the
White House during the recent session of congress
Since then leaders in the house and senate have Civ
Ell no attention to the subject Speculation abolt
possible changes induged in by outsiders is of little
consequence in the judgment of Chairman Payne

balance each other next year and there will be no
deficit by July, 1906 Hence, there will be no need
to tinker with the laws in order to raise more rsv1

that tin and copper could not have been

steel produced at the present day by
the most scientifically approved proc

struments they were able to quarry
and shape the hardest known stones
such as granite and porphyry, and
even cut emeralds and like substances.
A rediscovery of this lost art would
revolutionlae many trades in which
steel at present holds the monopoly.
If copper could thus be tempered now
its advantage over steel would be very
great, and it would no doubt be pre-
