To Drill With Bayonet and Sabre.


Washington, Sept. 21.-Special
instructions are to be given here
after in the use of the sabre, new
type of which was recently adopted
for the army and is about to be is
sued to the cavalry. A special COM
mittee of the general staff has been
hard at work on the new regulations,
the carrying out of which is consid-
cred of Importance, to the end that
there may be complete control of
the body, development of skill and a
stimulation of the mental faculties,
which, the experts say, are the re-
suit of the new exercises with the
weapon. The use of the sabre in
practice, to which all officers and
enlisted men of the cavalry will be
required to conform, is expected to
promote GOODNESS, presence of mind,
courage, confidence and quick deci-
sion in moments of danger. There
are afso being prepared some new
regulations relating to the use of the
bayonet. President Roosevelt be-
lieves that there should be ample
practice in both sabre and bayonet
manipulation, not only with view
of familiarizing officers and men
with the use of those weapons in
comat, but in order to give them
readiness and precision of movement
generally,

THE TRAMP AND THE AUTO.

NE and me pard was walking along
Long Island highway" said the tramp,
when we comes to 4 place where small
bridge over a ravine had been smashed
down. We looks at the place for awhile,
and then I says to Jim:
Jimmie. old boy, do we owe the auto
anything?
It's always throwing Us over the fence
and saving our climbing says he.
Then we ought to stand here and give
the first one warning, for that's a bad
hole for one OF them to fall into. There
comes one now at the rate Of 40 miles an
hour
II ran down the road a bit and stood
there and waved my old bandana as
warning, but the driver held straight for
me and yelled that he'd run me down If !
didn't take a skate. I took one, and the
next minute I heard q smash.
Jimmie, old boy, I says as I walks
back to the broken bridge, is the auto
down there1s
" She is. Tom.

consciences. We thought that perhaps
we owed the auto one for being so kind

Governor Hoch Heads or Prominent
Politicians Scheme.

Kansas City. Kan, Aug &c. w.
Trickett. assistant attorney general for
Wyandotte county, has scented ascheme
for the Elks' lodge to evade the Wyan-
dotte county lid which he has been in
1ustriously engaged in fastening down,
and he prepared papers asking Judge
Holt in the court of common pleas to
restrain Samuel McGonegal from selling
LIQUOR in his name.
McGonegal is secretary of the Ellzs'
lodge and lives at 642 Nebraska ave
nue. close to the business center. Some
time ago the bar was removed from the
Elks' club room and since then IT has
been as dry as a chip around there.
Tuesday Mr.. Trickett received notifi-
cation from the revenue office at Leav-
enworth that a license had been issued
to Mr. NcGonegal to sell liquor at 642
Nebraska avenue and he Immediately
prepared the injunction papers to re-
strain not only McGonegal but all the
others of his family.
Before Mr.. Trickett had time to file
the papers friends Of McGOnegal heard
of it and asked the attorney general to
delay fling them, that the matter might
be fixed up. Mr.. Trickett consented.
McGonegaI besides being secretary OF
the Elks. is collector for the state grain
Inspection department and prominent n
Republican politics. He is assistant sec
rotary Of the Republican county centra'
committee.

Tobacco Fertilizers.

AS every tobacco grower knows, this
crop removes large quantities of fertiliz-
ing ingredients from the soil, viz, on the
average per acre of land about Is pounds
of nitrogen, l6 pounds of phosphoric
acid and 200 pounds of potash. 1t has
been the practice in tobacco regions to
put all the manure produced on tae farm
on the tobacco field, leaving the rest {
the land to take care of itself as it may.
Evidently much better practice is to
supplement the manure with CONNER
cial fertilizer, rich in potash, or instead
of buying a mixed fertilizer some may
prefer to buy the raw material and mix
these themselves. Such fertilizer
should have the various constituents in
the proportion of about three parts of
nitrogen and six parts of potash to one
part of phosphoric acid. By this meth
cd the manure is not all used up for the
tobacco field and some may be put on
the corn and other lands

A Novel Tobacco Flower.

One of the flower novelties of the past
year which was successfully grown by
many experts is tobacco plant which
produces scarlet flowers, "Nicotiana san
derae." 1t is named for it's introducer,
an expert of England The plant was
originated by crossing two South Ameri-
can tobacco plants, one of which had
white and the other red flowers. The
result was flower varying from light
pink to the deepest red. Planted in the
foreground of border of more familiar
Nicotiana affinis, which has white, star
shaped flowers of a wonderfully sweet
fragrance at twilight, combination of
color most striking is produced.
A pleasing characteristic of this to-
bacco plant is the Towering time, which
begins at twilight and lasts until the hot
rays of the following day withers the
blossoms Thus it is in bloom at the
time when it is approached by persons
returning home after weary days work.
This plant appears to bear flowers all
summer, and with ordinary care should
succeed under great number of condi-
tions. 1t has been successfully tested in
Germany and the United States and has
done we'll in sunlight and partial shade.
