Some Secrets of Arms Manufacture.
From the ammunition plant let us

Making Barrels.
One of the most important features
Is, of course. the making of barrels.
The machines for drilling and boring
are the best that money can buy and
the operatives the most skilful to be
found anywhere. Care at this stage
reduces the necessity for Strengthening
later. Every point is given the minut-
est attention. In drilling % calibers,
for example, the length of the hole
must be from 100 to 125 times the d.
Pmeter Of the drill.
Taking Off 2-1ooo of an Inch.
The boring is an especially delicate
task. In chokeboring your shotgun,
for example, the final reamer took off
only $1,000 of an inch. Think of such
a gossamer thread of metal! But it in.

you tip up the farther end ever so lit

Revision of Pension Roll

To the Veterans of York County:
A meeting of the Pension Board OF
York county will be held in the clerk of
courts office at Yorkville on the first
Monday in March, the 3rd, for the pur-
pose of ascertaining the changes since
the last report of the deaths Of the
pensioners of York county. 1t will be
important to get the assistance of the
veterans to aid the pension board in
making the changes. 1t is, therefore,
desirous that those who are to meet
with us in March will come prepared to
furnish authentic evidence so as to
have an accurate report. A copy of this
notice will be sent to several papers in
the county, and it is hoped that the
people will interest themselves in this
matter. The rolls of the veterans are
rapidly thinning and it is desirous to
have as much accuracy as possible to
report to the state pension board.
Respectfully,

THE GOVERNORS VEToEs
His Exeelleneys Objections Sustained
by House in Several Instances.

The house refused to pass over the
governors veto by vote Of 81 to 5S,
the joint resolution requiring the state
treasurer to pay r. II. Mitchell, w. 1.
Jones and ]. A. Harris for their ser
vices as supervisor Of registration in
Che rokee county during the past year.
In his message to the senate. which
body passed the joint resolution Wed
nesday night over the veto. the gov
ernor said he vetoed the bill for the
reason that he had appointed three
other supervisors of registration and
those named in the joint resolution
served illegally.
Mr.. Hardin Of Cherokee, who said
he was personal and political friend
of the governor" asked the house to
pass the act over the veto Of his eX-
cellency.
Several Observation-Disclosures men,
bers voted to sustain the veto, while a
few administration men voted to over
ride it.
BY a vote of 6S to 81, the house
sustained the veto of the governor on
the act to hold an election in Jasper
county for the purpose of voting $780,
600 in bonds with which the supervisor
and county commissioners could build
court house and Jail. The original
act creating Jasper county provided
that the buildings should be erected
by a commission Of five. Last night
the house sustained the veto Of the act
which would have declared vacant the
office Of the five commissioners and Its
action this morning was In Keeping
with that Of last night as the bond is
sue act was merely companion meas
ure to the other.
The house refused to pass over the
veto of the governor the act to en-
power the municipal authorities or
Greenville to destroy alcoholic liquors
seized by them. The vote was A to
So.
Mr.. Greer Of Greenville, the author
of the bill, explained that the chief Of
police Of Greenville should be given
the right to destroy contraband liquor
because the sheriff did not have room
to store all Of 1t in the court house.
He said that the act would not con-
flict with the Ashley bill providing
that pure contraband liquor be given
to hospitals or sold to county dispen-
saries.
Mr.. Goodwin Of Greenville, asked to
be excused from voting because he had
told several members that the passage
of the vetoed act would not be insist
ed upon.-Columbia State, Febru-
