 tary posts all along the Afghanistan border and it Is now possible to drive comfortably in a carriage over their magnificent roads connecting the va- rious stations from which the move upon India could be made. These mill itary roads stretch from several points in Turkestan to the Afghanistan from tier. Down them Russian armies could be moved hurriedly to take the land of the Ameer. From Mery to Tashkend military communications have been established, and new army posts have been created throughout Bokhara. The barren village of Merv has been transformed into city with huge grsnafies and stores and we'll enormous barracks built to shelter the soldiers of. the Czar from the cold winters of that country.
 The Russian preparations have been rushed forward with tremendous ener- gy since the Younghusband expedition to Tibet placed the British in control there and made abortive the Russian intrigues with the Tibetan Government. From the Caspian ito Mery every de- tail of a great advance has been work ed out. The Russians have worked as if they had no great war on their hands to sap their strength. In Tur- kestan tho soldiers hardly know that lFtheir comrades are fighting and dying in Manchuria.
 The British say that the Russian &C., tivfties can have but one meaning-that is, to take Afghanistan first and India afterward. A humiliating defeat by the Japanese has not been regarded by the British as a damper on the Russian ardor in pushing on toward India. All along the British strategists have ar gued that the worse the defeat in the East the more determined would be the Czar to strike a blow at India. This is said to be Russia's only hope of cour- teracting the effect of the Japanese vic- tories

PUsHMATAHA.

In contradistinction to Weatherford was Pushmataha, born somewhere In Eastern Mississippi. near Macon, in 1764, a warrior of great distinction, wise In counsel, eloquent in an extra ordinary degree and on all occasions, and under all circumstances the white mans friend. His name means He has won gll the honors of his race" or all the Indians of pure blood who have won a place in American history, he blended more admirable traits in his character than any other He was in telligent, affable, sagacious. brave, clo- quent, witty, and comparatively tenn perate. and like Logan he was truly the white mans friend. When told of the massacre at Fort Mims, he rode to Mobile, in company with MT. Geo. s. Gains, and offered his services and those of his tribe, to General Tourney. And when they were accepted he led a body of his warriors with the expedition of General Claiborne the attack on Econ- ochaca, or the Holy Ground.
 When Tecumseh visited the Choctaws in 1911 Pushmataha followed him from place to place arguing eloquently against Tecumseh's designs. His in fiuence was so great that he restrained the Choctaws who, as a nation, never in war shed the blood of a white man. The few individual Choctaws who join ed the OFeek war party were SAeCulSu by order of Pushmataha. At the out break of the Creek war, when he of fered himself and his people to the whites, the Tombigbee Settlements were surrounded by Indians, and com pletely separated from friends in Geor- gia and Tennessee. The Creeks, with their tribal confederates, occu- pied from the Oconee to the Alabama; the Cherokees skirted the Tennessee the Chickasaws held Northwest Alabama and Northern Mississippi. The Choctaws and Creeks
 held continuous dispute over possession
 of the region between the Black War rior and the Tombigbee Rivers. The whites were in extreme peril, and theSe
 was much apprehension lest the Chnc- | taws should forget their traditional | friendship and unite with the. Creeks
 Had they done sol the Chickasaws and Cherokees would probably have jclred them. the whites would have been ex- | terminated and the history of Alabama | entirely changed. Pushmataha was q genuine patriot, ever on the alert for the good of his tribes, and for the pres | ervation of the friendly relations with | the whites. General Jackson is said tc | have pronounced him the bravest man | he ever saw. He lived at one time neal

sen the financial value of the writer. History that is rot accurate ceases to be history and becomes fiction almost as strange as truth. Should the ghosts of La Salle, Iberville and Bienville ever chance upon the fiattering and pleas ant references mentioned they may wonder why they lived and when. One can imagine the biting sarcasm with which the shade of John Randolph of Roanoke would review the account of his services to his country.

Repeatlnr Tack Hammers.

The smashed fingers and shocking profanity, traditional accompantments of amateur carpet laying, are soon to disappear before the advance of inyen- tion. Some one has devised magazine tack hammer, having a hollow handle filled with tacks, which are fed auto niatically to the head. Here a magnet takes the place of the fingers. and hoids operator. as he raises the hammer, pulls a little latch on top of the handle. and a tack Is picked. out by the magnet, ma Ths is repeated until the magazine Is empty when 1t can readily be filled again.

ROBERTS0Ns NEW PERIsCOPE.
Writer Of Submarine Fiction Breaks Into
the Field OF Invention.

Writer OF submarine F1clOn ,breAhs lnSo
the Field OF Invention.
Morgan Robertson, who has out-Verned
the late Jules In the fabrication OF tales
of the sea, has forsaken literature forever
and has become an inventor OF real things,
This Ia an honest dead sure enough fact.
II anybody be incredulous, let him ask
h. Y. Spear, vice-president Of the Holland
Torpedo Boat Company, whose office Ia at
the works OF the company at Quincy. Mass.
He will tell, somewhat guardedly, that his
company has bought Of Mr.. Robertson all
the latter's right, title and interest IN
patent which the author secured some
time ago on an improved periscope.
For the benefit of any who may not be
familiar with the mechanism of sub
marine destroyer it may be said that
periscope ia the instrument which enables
a person In the boat3under the sea to observe
objects on the surface in direct line with the
lens Of the periscope. The ones now IN use
are so constructed, II the observer desires
to look In more than one direction: he must
turn the periscope from side to side.
Mr.. Robertson has invented and patented
fiuorescent light to be used in connection
with the periscope by which. he asserts,
the observer In the boat under the surface
may command view Of the sea in all direc-
tions and for many miles.
