Election of Officers and SeIec-
ton of Next Gathering Place
Are in Order.

The official business meeting OF the
forty third anl.eal encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic will open at
8 o'clock this morning In the Armory
hall The principal business of this con-
vention is the election Of officers and the
selection of the next meeting place of
the G. A. R It is not expected that any
other matters Of prime importance will
come before this convention.
To seats in the convention a number of
membership in the @. A r. is allotted to
each department. In addition to the dele
gates from each department all of the past
commanders and present department Of
ficials have votes in the convention. The
total possible vote of the convention is
about 1900 but the actual vote of this
encampment will be a little more than
half that number.
The meetings of the convention of the
G. A. r. will be open only to veterans
and the voting will be confined to the
representatives of the different depart
ments. Most Of the forenoon session will
be given over to receiving reports of COM
mittees and the routine business of the
Commander-in-Chief Nevius will be given
at this session. In the afternoon the can
didates for the different offices will be
nominated. The election will occur on
Friday

whose center for hours poured river Of
patriotism running between two banks

highway from Washington, D. c., across

alleged advantages of aluminum-foil
as substitute for tin-foil is that tin
salts are more or less poisonous,
whereas aluminium salts, at least in
small quantities, are practically harm
less. This suggests the use of the
new product for wrapping sweetmeats.
In New Zealand an automatic de-
vice has been patented for telling rail-

stations are printed on roll, which is

or by it's side, between each station,
and this is so adjusted as to strike a
lever on the passing car. The motion
is communicated to the toothed wheels

the fact that the name of the next sta

The recently perfected process of
manufacturing seamless steel barrels
is described in Popular Mechanics.
The barrel is formed from a single
piece of steel by a series Of opera
lions in hydraulic presses of special
design, and, with the exception of the
upper head, which is hard-brazed to
the inturned edge of the body, it is
wholly seamless. The bungs and vent
holes are REINFORCED with ring plugs
of rivet steel upset in place under a
20C-ton hydraulic riveter.
Methods have recently been invented
