It is not likely the naval militia will
 be equipped with the new army rifles
 for some time to come. Occupying a
 somewhat anamalous position they
 cannot be equipped from the regu- lar fund available to the land forces
 and the total appropriation for the
 naval militia is only $100,000. which
 must be divided among nineteen or
 ganizations according to their
 strength. Should the commanders
 desire it, however, it is understood
 portion of the quota for their com
 mands may be used for this purpose.
 The state of Ohio Is making elab-
 crate preparations to entertain the
 crack military shots of the United
 States at the national matches in Au-
 gust the more so as it will probably
 be some years before the matches
 are again held on that range. There
 will be almost a thousand team mem-
 bers and substitutes in attendance on
 the national team match alone, rep resenting almost every state and ter
 ritory, and all branches of the reg
 ular services together with a team from the army in Cuba. There will
 probably be eight hundred entries in
 the national individual rifle match
 and half as many or more in the national pistol match. In addition there will be hundreds of marksmen who are ineligible for these matches
 but who will contest in the matches of the National Rifle association and the Ohio State Rifle association, shot during the preceding two weeks. Approximately one hundred army of ficers will be detailed to supervise the national matches. together with regiment of regulars to act as mark CTS and. scorers. The state has pur- chased 66 acres of additional ground to the west of the range which will admit of firing at all ranges from common firing point. The new 1000 yard butt will be 500 feet long, of reinforced concrete and equipped With telephone connections, buzZers, etc. Just north of the railroad terminals a new mess hall is being constructed It will be 76 by 172 feet, two stories in height with an extension for the The upper story will pro vide a large drill hall without pillars. This building will also be of re- concrete. On the lower floor l ,000- men can be messed at one time. For the national matches congress made a special appropriation of $12,- 900 to provide for the messing of the which mess will be con ducted by the army. Another inn portant improvement is the construc- ton of a stand-pipe with a capac- ity of 75,OOO gallons of water, all wat er used at the camp being carefully | filtered. An intercepting storm water | sewer is being constructed to drain the camp. It will empty into a large | basin and the water will be pumped l into the lake, which insures a per iectly dry camp. All roads are being | and parked and cinder ,oot-paths ares being constructed to all parts of the range. These inn will cost the state about ;35, 900 in addition to the cost of the additional ground. In July the 2nd | will be. at Camp Perry for qualification of-its men and it will ' be designated to remain dur ng the matches in August.

New York Described by New Yorker

New York is the dirtiest of the worlds great cities and the noisiest, and the skyscrapers on which we pride ourselves are making it's streets the darkest on Gods footstool. Hith- erto, however, we had been able to look upward-from the footstool to the throne, so to speak-and catch glimpses of the sky and of the sun or the moon, especially if we hap pened to be passing through a park or square. But even of this resource we are now being robbed. What with the dirt, the din and the darkness, to say nothing of the everlasting quick lunch, strap hanging, step lively scramble of our daily lives. it is small wonder that money is to be made by advertising remedies for shattered nerves and establishments for "mak- ing men over" But even such ad- vertisers could not pay the city a price that would justify it in selling it's open spaces for such use.-Letter to New York Sun.

EXCELLENT ARMAMENT
 OF NATIONAL GUARD
The Militia of the States Better rro-
 Vided Than Navy or Marine Corps.

Washington, D. C., June 19.-(Spe- cial Correspondence of The Republi-
 can)-It is an interesting fact that
 the national guard of the various
 states and territories are equipped
 with better rifles than the U. S.
 navy and marine corps. The for mer, like the army, has been armed
 with Model 1903, popularly known as the New Springfield, while the navy continues to use the Krag This is
 not, however, the fault of the naval authorities who would be only too pleased to change to the new rifle
 but alas, there is no money available
 It would cost about $1,000,000 to equip the navy and marine corps with
 New Springfields and as congress did not appropriate the money and no other fund is available these branches of the service will continue using the Krags. The teams from the navy, marine corps and naval academy, which 'Sill shoot in the national matches at Camp Perry, however, will use the new rifles, the depart. ment having purchased a hundred of them from the war department, to be used in the trials now in progress and in the matches. There is a warm but generous rivalry between the army and the navy over these match es and extensive preparations are being made by both services to win the national trophy The army brought from the Philippines a dozen of the best experts stationed there to for places on the infantry and cavalry teams, while the navy has detached from the fleet now in

No chemists analysis of Grape Nuts can begin to show the real value of the food-the practical value as shown by personal experience.
 It is a food that is perfectly bal anced, supplies the needed clements of brain and nerves in all stages of life from the infant. through the strenuous times of active middle life. and is a comfort and support in old age. i- Nuts with milk and a little cream, for breakfast. I am comfortably hun gry for my dinner at noon.
 q use little meat, plenty of-vegeta- bles and fruit, in season, for the noon meal. and if tired at tea time, take Grape Nuts alone and feel perfectly nourished.
 Nerve and brain power, and mem- ory are much improved since using Grape Nuts. I am over sixty and weigh 155 lbs. My son and, husband seeing how I had improved, are now using Grape Nuts.

A GLANCE AT RECORDS
 ON CENTRAL BLOCK
The Ground on Which It Is Claimed
 Sale Cannot Be Legally Made.

The proposed sale of the Central school block to the Phoenix syndicate is still a topic of daily interest, and street t-corner discussion. The meeting on Monday night when the electors will decide will draw a large per cent of the voters in the district
 The grounds for the threat of an in- junction to prevent the sale was dug up from the deed conveying the block to the school district. County Record Ter Leonard yesterday said the records showed the town site in which this tract of land was contained was con- Veyed by patent from the United States government on April 10, 1874, to Prob ate Judge John Alsap and the school block was by him deeded to the dis trict trustees in trust on August 2, 1875, for the consideration of $1. The trustees were B. F. Patterson, John Montgomery and George Buck, and in the records it was stated that the block is to be used for school purposes, and no other. It is the claim of those opposed to the sale that this will pre- vent the district giving a clear title to the block to the syndicate
 CSA- NpS 6ii4'' To ilOl Ol llldl however, but holds that the people may sell 1t. the money to be derived from such sale to be used for school pur- poses and no other. A Mrs. Wilson called at the mayors office yesterday and enjoined him from allowing the sale to proceed. She said that by rights the school block belonged to her; her folks, though. she was sorry to say, were trying to beat her out of it. She said it had been deeded to her by the elder Balsz years ago. She said the syndicate could not have it. Mrs. Wilson also said that if the truth were known. the land on which the Adams Hotel was built was hers too. She was referred to MT. Adams by several in the office at the time, saying that if she would take an hour and explain to MT. Adams her case. he probably would not buy the block and might even feel a sense of his iniquity and turn over the hotel and all its retinue of clerks. At late hour MT. Adams had not been interviewed.

Considerable saving in ammunition to the states will be effected by recent decision of Assistant Secretary of War Oliver who has held that where an officer or enlisted man of the national guard qualities as an expert rifleman or as a sharpshooter. he enters the next seasons practice with the qualification of the grade next below, so that under special course the expert of last year will have to qualify only in this class, and the sharpshooters only as sharpshoot- CTS and then experts, instead of hav- ing to qualify in all three classes as marksmen, sharpshooters and expert.

Corunna, June 25.-According to the latest information the steamer La Rache, which went ashore yesterday had only 52 in the crew, and 59 pas sengers. all of whom have been ac- counted for with the exception of 4S.
 Steamers have been engaged all day in cruising about the scene of the disaster in search of bodies but heavy seas have made the task most diff cult one.
 Up to a late hour tonight 23 bodies had been recovered. The survivors tell narrowing scenes followed the striking of the steamer. The captain suffering with rheumatism, left his bunk and rushing on deck, leaped half naked into the ocean. He was washed ashore unconscious.
