rShal the national rife matches Of
1908 be shot with the Krag or the
new Springfield?" is one of the i'm
portant matters which will come be-
fore the national board for the promo
ton of rifle practice ut its annual meet
ing in Washington next January.
There is some question as to whether
the ordnance department will be able
to supply the new Springfield of
"model 1908" TO the national guard in
time for the outdoor practice of 1908.
Obviously it would be unfair to re-
quire the teams to use in the matches
rines to which they had been unable
summer practice. The regular troops
will soon be completely equipped with
the model of 1903.
The new Springfield would long since
have been in the hands of the national
guard had it not been for changes in
the ammunition, which, while greatly
increasing the range and efficiency of
the weapons, necessitated rechamber-
ing and thus delayed their issue. A
new powder has also been adopted,
calculated 70 reduce the erosion at
tendant on high velocity, and it may
take some time to secure a sufficient
supply Of powder. General Crozier,
chief of ordnance, expects to be able
to state definitely by Jan. l whether
the war department will be in a posi-
ton to honor acquisitions for the 1908
model for equipping the militia in time
for spring practice. AS may Of the
Krags now in the hands of the militia
men have sadly worn barrels, they are
hoping that the new rifles can be is
sued in the spring to avoid the expense
of drawing new Krag barrels, only to
be shortly discarded for the new
Springfelds.

God of our fathers, known of old,
Lord Of our far flung battle line,
Beneath whose awful hand We hold
Dominion over palm and pine
Lord God of Hosts. be with us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
The tumult and the shouting dies,
The captains and the kings depart.
Still stands thine ancient sacrifice,
An humble and a contrite heart.
Lord God of Hosts, be with US yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
Far called, our navies melt away;
On dune and headland sinks the fire.
Lo, all our pomp of yesterday
Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!
Judge of the nations, spare us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
If, drunk with sight of power. we loose
Wild tongues that have not thee In
awe
Such boasting as the gentiles use
Or lesser breeds without the law
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget.
For heather heart that puts her trust
In reeking tube and iron shard-
All valiant dust that builds on dust
And, guarding, calls not thee te
guard
For frantic boast and foolish word,
Thy mercy on thy people, Lord!
Amen.

Seneca on Fo-titude.
To win without danger is to win
without glory. You are a great man,
but how am l to know it if fortune
gives you no opportunity of showing
your virtue? You can judge of a pilot
in storm, of soldier in a battle.
How can I know with how great q
spirit you could endure poverty if you
overflow with riches? How can l tell
with how great firmness you could
bear up against disgrace, dishonor and
public hatred If you grow old to the
sound Of applause, if popular favor
cannot be alienated from you and
seems to flow to you by the natural
bent Of mems minds? How can ]
know how calmly you would endure to
be chihless IL you see all your chill
dren around you? 1 have heard what
you said when you were consoling 9TH
ers. Then I should have seen whether
you could have consoled yourself,
whether you could have forbidden your
self to grieve. Do not, l beg you,
dread those things which the immortal
gods apply to our minds like spurs.

 In vain did the manager explain that the lower floors were not in use in the summer, that they were closed entirely and dismantled They must be opened and refurnished.

Williams believes the Democrats can carry the next house if the cam paign is fought out on the issues ere ated in the last session.
 John Sharp Williams has been Demo- cratic leader in the house for six years and has ably conducted the minority through many legislative battles and filibusters. He has been chosen by the Mississippi legislature to succeed Sen ator Money in the upper house of con gress when the latter's term expires March 1, 1911. He will be in the house throughout the SiXty-first session him self, and in resigning his leadership now, abandons the certainty of becom- ing speaker of that congress if the Democrats have a majority in it.

Pretty Society Belle Studying Bugs

But when. after taking baccalaureate degree, she wished to go on studying, her family rebelled It was then that Dr. c. w. Richardson, her brother, had the happy inspiration of taking her to the musty old Smithsonian institution, where his influence procured her the right to work as volunteer.
 He thought one visit would be the end. So he took her up the narrow stairs to the smelly balcony, where col lections of fossils were being mounted, Miss Richardson calmly sat down be. fore a compound microscope and an. nounced that she liked 1t.
 That's where I found her, in a Pa. risian linen suit, fondling little bottles of preserved isopods as daintily as if they were thimble teacups.
 Every morning from ten till one Miss Richardson is at her desk. There she has written her book, "A Mono graph on the Isopods of North Amer. ica," dealing with specimens furnished by the Hartman expedition to Alaska, and 15 shorter works, two of which she has just prepared for Paris scien- tific paper.
 But even when abroad, absent from the allurement of the institution, the scientific side of Miss Richardsou's mind asserts itself. She leaves the gay watering places and season en, tertainments to go and visit DT. Thomas Scott of Aberdeen or Dr. A. M. Norman, just out of London, both famous scientists. This summer she is invited to visit Prof. Giard, director of the laboratory at Wimereux, France.

EASY TO MAR PRETTY GARMENT
Much Depends on the Fastenngs Be-
 ing Properly Arranged.

The whole appearance of an other wise pretty garment may be marred II the fastenings are carelessly or in correctly put on. There are many garments which are too fine for hooks and eyes and which are, in fact, fit ted only for tiny buttonholes and but tons or hooks and loops These loops are used both for small buttons and for hooks and are put on the collars of lingerie blouses, on baby clothes, and other sheer garments. When they are to be used for buttons they are put at the extreme edge of a hem or band and sometimes they are placed on the underneath part of a hem when 1t has been folded over and so closes the opening in an invisible man. ner. They are made by arranging loose threads of a certain length to form loop large enough for the but ton to pass through. Use strong sew ing cotton and fasten on by passing the middle between the folds to the edge of the band. Make it quite firm by taking scanning stitch on it and give it jerk to test it. Now take a stitch like a scanning one as far dis, tant from the first as the diameter of the button, and draw the cotton in to within three-quarters or half an inch from the first stitch Keep this loop around the forefinger and make another one by taking up the first stitch again, which of course takes the needle back to the right of the one last made. Repeat this four or five times, keeping all the loops the same length over the finger Let the last stitch come on the right hand side so that when the work is turned around for the loop to face the worker it becomes the left hand Holding the work with the loop toward the body. pass the needle under the loops with the point toward you and pass the single thread to the right under the needle. This will make a purled edge at the top of the loop Continue this from right to left and finish off se- curely. Loops for hooks are made in a similar manner, but the strands are drawn much tighter and they are made quarter of an inch or so from the edge of the hem.

a civil war soldier was killed in ac- tion earlier than June 1, 1861, let those who know tell of it. The founders of this monument believe that they are right in saying that Capt. Marr was the first soldier killed in action.
 The monument stands in the north front of the courtyard facing the pike that leads from the heights of Arling. ton through Fairfax, Centerville, Bull Run, Groveton, Gainesville, Warren ton, Waterloo bridge over the Rap. pahannock and through the war-worn plain of northern Virginia-a road travelled by nearly all the soldiers of the Army of Virginia, the Army of the Potomac and the Army of Northern Virginia during the first three years of the civil war. The spot where Capt. Marr fell was at the south side of the courtyard.
 One of the relics of Fairfax is the house in which Mosby captured Gen. Stoughton. The house was then occu- pied by Dr. Gunnell; it is now the Episcopal reetory The courthouse at Fairfax contains relics of other times than the civil war period One may read there the will of George Wash. ington, it having been filed for probate there.
