this resort, and the severe weather expe-
rienced in the north during the past week
has done much toward swelling the number

Outdoor sports still continue to attract the
attention of visitors, and golf leads as to
popularity. The formation of a bowling
league has added much TO the interest in
this sport, and series OF championship
tournaments has been begun. Pistol and

tees.

the two cruisers with turbine propulsion
machinery for $4,244, 600 each. This is the
first time that 1t had ever been seriously
proposed by a shipbuilder of great reputa-
ton like ex-Chief Constructor Francis +.
Bowles, now president OF the Fore River
Company. to place turbine machinery in a
14,oO-ton cruiser. The price was a high
one and the naval authorities were not dis
posed to make an experiment with turbines
on such large scale. But there is no doubt
that this is the next epoch-making develop
ment to be looked for in the direction of
greater power for warships.
New Guns and Gun Mountings.
New kinds of guns, new gun mountings,
new range-finding devices, new means of
protecting guns, are being constantly de-
yeloped. Great changes in the emplace-
ment of guns are likely to be made neces-
sary by the experience obtained In the
Russo-Japanese war In the last great sea
fight at Port Arthur it was shown that an
effective battle could be fought at 6,0OC
yards distance, and naval experts in con-
sequence are talking of the necessity OF
changing the present arrangement of a
ships batteries SO that they will consist
mainly of the largest possible number OF
elevated heavy guns and a battery Of rapid
firers for defense against torpedo boats.
When this change comes about 1t will put
six and eight-inch guns out of business
altogether.

avert such another disaster as occurred on
the battle ship Missouri in April last, is
an invention of two naval officers to pre-
vent ''darebacks.' The plan consists OF
drilling small holes about the size of a
lead pencil through the breech of the rife
and entering the barrel just ahead of the
breech plug. These holes are connected
with pipe that encircleS the end of the
weapon. Compressed air is supplied through
this pipe, and as the breech block is with
drawn after a discharge a powerful cur
rent is forced through the three holes
slanting toward the muZZle, and every
thing that remains in the barrel of the gun
is forcibly cjected-gases, flames, remnants
of powder bags, or anything that might
ignite the next charge placed in the gun
Advance in Armor Making.
Improvement in armor has of necessity
kept pace With Improvement in guns. First
there was the Harvey then the krupp proc
ess, and now a new armor- making process
las come into the field-the Midvale Com
pany, which operates under American pat
ents Independent of the Krupp methods
Strangely enough the price of armor plate
is steadily going down, in spite of the inn
provement. Before the krupp armor process
was discovered the American government
paid Il uniform price of $543 per ton. Since
1899, when Krupps method was adopted
the price has been 1920 with 500 pee ton adj
ditional for the patent royalty. The next
drop in price came last year, when the
Midvale Company bid 1898 per ton and got
a 6,G00-ton contract. Tests made early in
December with an eight-inch gun against

Joplin Passes 81, goo, 600 Mark.

From the Search Light.
The $l1,000,e00 mark was passed in the
production of zinc in the Joplin tMo.) dis
trict during Christmas week, and the weeks
output was the largest in the history Of
local mining camps.
!. The assay basis was higher in some locali-
ties, while in others there was no change,
ranging from $40 to few lots at $4S for
concentrates carrying 90 per cent zinc. Lead
ore continued strong at $50 per ton. There
is very little surplus enc ore in the district.
and the conditions are better now than at
any time IN the history of Joplin. The adj
vance In spelter warrants the belief that
the demand for zinc ore will continue
strong.

there are now in process of construction
thirteen hrst-class battle ships, eight ar

any one of the great powers.
The armored cruiser Colorado is just
going into commission. Her sister ship,
the Pennsylvania, viii soon follow. Be-
fore the end of the year her other sisters
the West Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee,
South Dakota and possibly the California
will enter active service. Here alone is n
squadron of terrific power, embodying
every twentieth-cen idea in construc-

with fearful destructiveBess and moving
with tremendous force. On her trial trip
the Colorado amazed even her builders by
developing 5000 horsepower in her en-

TO SAVE THE BUFFALO
WORTHY MOVEMENT THAT Is
RAPIDLY GAINING GROUND.
Grandest of Native American Animals
urgent Need of Action by
the Government.

The movement for the preservation of the
last few hundred specimens of American
buffalo. not long since the most numerous
of the earth's big mammals, is rapidly
gaining ground. The deep regret of the
American people at the fact that their
grandest native animal has all but dsap-
peared finds expression in hundred ways.
Naturalists and true sportsmen are meet
ing both in public and in private, not to
discuss the ACCESSIBILITY or the possibility
of preserving the animal-those points have
been decided once and for all by the best
authorities in the country--but to consider
and formulate wise plans for its preserva-
ton. NaturalistS who have never lectured
or spoken in public before are raising their
voices in the cause; they know that if
they have anything to say in the interest
of the buffalo, they must say it at once or
it will be too late. And men, ay, and wo-
men, too, who are not naturaliSts, but who
are lovers of things which live, are help
ing the movement by expressing to others
their interest in it. Those who can write
well are writing strong letters and articles
for publication in the papers and maya
zines, and many others of less ability are
writing the best they can, and by reason
of their great earneStness these are Oft
times quite eloquent as those who have
a more finished style.

says Mr.. McCausland.
On different occasions IN the
past the government has placed
fish in the Ohio and also in creeks,
and had they not been molested
it is believed that there would
be pretty good fishing, but by
means of the seining and the dy-
namiting which kills everything
in the pools in which they are
placed, there appears to be very
few of the government fish left.
Naturally, it is not the sports.

took it directly from the place to
the purchaser, and made delivery
without any condition as to pay
ment.
Under this ruling the revenue
officials hold that the liquor must
be bought and paid for at the
place where the license is held.
The only sale way is to order the
beer or whiskey, pay for it at the
time and have it sent home. In
this way the transaction takes
place at the location where the
license is held. =
Under the literal Interpretation
of the ruling it is doubtful
whether or not a man can order
a case of beer sent to his house,
have it charged, and later 60 and
pay for it without making a sa-
loon Of himself.
If a man comes around taking
orders for liquors, receives an or
der at a private house. delivers
the goods and is paid for them
after they arrive, the house, ac-
cording to the government rec
ords, becomes a retail liquor en-
porium and a branch of the store
from which the liquor was bought.

tism, and there is PROBABLY no
disease for which such a varied
and useless lot of remedies have

statement to make, but Chamber
lain's Pain Balm, which enjoys
an extensive sale, has met with
great success in the treatment of
this disease. One application of
Pain Balm will relieve the pain,

Pittsburg, March 5.-Seven persons
were killed and probably fifty injured
in a terrific rear-end collision on the
Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago rail

from this city, last evening. One spe
cial, containing a battalion of the Ohio
national guard, with ladies and eff

on account of hot box. BefC.', a

following containing the members of
the Tippecanoe club, their wives, sis
tiers and SwectheartS, crashed into the
first train. The second train was run
ming about fifty miles an hour and the
impact was terrific, the locomotive
blowing right through the rear Pull
man and into the forward cars, leaving
death and terrible injury in it's wake.
While the cries of the injured and dy
ing rent the air the wreck took fire
and three of the cars of the first train
and two of the second were consumed.

said there We're 225 men on the train
and IA officers. On his car were 80
men, among them his brother.

heard him say, as though speaking to
himself and in a dazed tone: It's all
my fault, and with that he disap-
peared in the darkness did not see
him afterward."
