The First CarronadeS.

The earliest mention Of the use Of
carronades in actual warfare which l
have met with is contained in the Edin-
burgh Advertiser for April 10, 1TI9.
where accounts are given of an action
fought March II, 1II9, in st. Georges
channeh near the Tuskar rock, between
the British privateer Sharp and the
American privateer Skyrocket. The
former was armed with carrOnades,
"short guns of a new construction,
made at Carron." One of these ac-
counts is from Captain Macarthur, an
Englishman, who was at the time a
prisoner on board the Skyrocket and
was in a position to speak Of the dam
age sustained by that ship.
On April 10, in the same year, a
spirited action was fought in the chan
mel between the Spitfre, British pri-
vateer armed with sixteen eighteen

The Guinea Worm.

The famous guinea worm is an in
habitant of the tropical regions of
Asia and Africa, existing in ponds
rivers and swamps. 1t penetrates the
skin of any portion of the human body
without being felt and when once it
finds Judgment grows to an enormous
length. The body of the creature sell
dom exceeds in diameter that of
large pin. and it inhabits the flesh just
beneath the skin When full grown it
is not less than twelve feet in length
and in order to accommodate itself
must wind several times around tie
legs or body. Should the guinea worm
find q home under the human cuticle
end grow to large size there is dan
ger Of modification setting in when
the parasite bursts, as it is sure to do
sooner or later. In order to guard
against an accident of this character
great care is exercised in extracting
the unwelcome intruder. The skin is
opened near one end of the creature
and the body pulled out and wrapped
around q small round stick. This stick
is turned very slowly for days, or even
weeks, until the entire worm has been
extracted.

IVA 777 # Y CONDITIONS ON SUBIrAT.
Service Not Normal Although It is Im-
 proving.

New York, March F. Though traffic conditions were somewhat better on the subway and elevated systems to-day, the service was far from being normal. At times the elevated trains, ran regu- larly and again there were long delays, there being at times intervals of from fifteen to thirty minutes. The service in the subway was better. There were few minor accodents as result of the inexperience of the motormen and guards The company had more men at work and officials were busy during the day examining old employees seek ing reinstatement.
 A joint committee representing the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway Employees of America appeared before the joint executive committee of both locals tonight and demanded that they be told whether to continue the strike or go back to work The executive committee told the men to wait until Monday when definite reply would be made.
 A Ninth avenue elevated train ran into the bumper at the South Ferry terminal to-day and passengers were thrown to the floor of the cars. A number were cut and bruised, among them meing J. J. Barry, of Fitchburg, Mass.

KURoPATKIN REsIGNs2
Reported That He Has Asked Pernis- sion to Hand over Command.

 London, March 13.-The St. Peters burg correspondent of the Times says:
 General Kuropatkin has asked the emperors gracious permission to hand over his command, alleging that he is in urgent need of physical and mental rest. K -. ...S# e,5
 T learn on the best authority that Japan has twice approached Russia through informal channels on the sub iect of peace negotiations, but that in each case the proposal failed because Japan demanded an indemnity and a pledge that Russia would not keep warships in the Pacific for twenty-five years. r
 ''The Japanese insistence on indem nifty conyinces the Russian government that her pecuniary resources are ex hausted and that by continuing the war only a few months longer will Rus- sia get better terms. ~Sa
 When Kuropatkin heard of the cap ture of Kiousan on March 10, realizing he had delayed retreat too long, one desperate chance remained. It was to sacrifice his artillery by 1nassing the batteries so as to paralyze the enemy's fire. The Russian gunners did their duty and saved what is left of Kuro. patkin's armies"
