The Bremen visited this port two years since when she was cruising in gulf waters, and the off, eers and men have many friends here among the Germans of the city, who lavishly entertained them during their stay. and who are looking forward anxiously to the date of the ships ar rival. While no information has been received that such will be done it Is anticipated that the Bremen will also visit Galveston, New Orleans, and some of the Florida ports in addition to Pensacola.

Quentgom of JurIsagctlen,

A new question of the Jurisdiction of the Federal Court has been sprung here, and Judge Charles Swayne, Judge of the District Court. has the point un- der consideration. It is that a Federal Court has no Jurisdiction for the trial of party committing an offense or crime upon the naval reservation un- less the said crime was committed within the navy yard enclosure, or some building owned by the Navy Depart ment and that where an offense is committed in open territory upon the | reservation that the State courts only have jurisdicipn.
 The general understanding has been that an ofiense committed upon the lands reserved for the use of the navy or army or any other branch of the government cuold be punished only in the Federal Court and this rule has al ways applied with cases originating either at the army or navy posts The case in point was where a negro. had committed an assault upon a negro girl, and the attorney for the negro moved to quash the indictment upon the ground that the court did not have jv- risdiction.

Hickory the Favorite F1rewOod,

A man who has Just built In this city a
beautiful new house in which there are
sixteen open ~freplaces wrote from the
country to the dealer here who keeps him
supplied with fire wood:
please go up TO my house and measure
all the freplaces and put in the cellar a
supply VI wood fer each, enough to last
through the winter"
This the dealer did, for that is a part OF
his business. He keeps On band constantly
a large supply Of hickory wood for open
fires, sawed into the lengths most commonly
in demand, and stacked up, seasoning
but il there is a call for hickory in SPECIAL
lengths he saws it TO Ill the requirements.
So he vent up and measured all these
freplaces and put into the cellar hickory
suitable for each, TIE wood Of the several
lengths being trinity stacked in as many
separate piles, with a label on zach showing
what room or rooms b wood was for.
This was 10 avoid any possible mistake or
c~onfusion-not an unusual thing for him
10 do.
There are more open fires kept burning in
tn Q city now tlan ever before, and 80 a
greater demand than ever for hickory
wood for suoh use. Once every house had
open replaces, more or less used. Then
they we're largely surplanted by more
modern methods OF heating. Eut now
every new dwelling house above a Ger
tain grade is amply provided with open
freplaces, which are freely used. The
house Is, Of course, eqUipre ed with a COM
plete heating system Of some sort for
General heating purposes, but the open
hreplaces are . as well for their luxury
and comfort.
Not every modern city house has sixt cen
open flrepIaces, but there are plenty OF
such houses with from two to a dozen,
in one or another of which hres may be
lighted on occasion and in some Of which
the fires may be kept always burning.
There are more and more people who can
afford this sort OF thing,
But still IL IL not the rich alone who can
enjoy this luxury. There are plenty OF
people Of comparatively moderate means,
who. In houses old and new, give them
