Now that the White House wedding
is over and Miss Jessie Wilson has
become Mrs. Sayre, what will the cor.
respondents of those eastern papers do
for loaded stories? And speaking of
that wedding, it must be admitted that
for good sense and all the attributes
Of a beautiful character Miss Wilson
was in pleasing contrast with some Of
the White House brides of the past.
You don't hear of any wine bibbing
or cigarette smoking or any other un-
womanly conduct on the part Of Jessie
Wilson.

9Nosmous Expenditure Of Shot and
ohell Without Result-No Time
TO Take Aim.

The mortality during = battle Is sur
prisingly low: In fact, according to the
mortality proverb. It takes = ton Of
shot to kill 4 man.
At the seige of Gibraltar 269, 1877
heavy shot and shell were thrown In
70 the garrison during the ten months
attack. but only 1341 prisons were
killed and wounded. most Of the in.
juries being very slight. At Salaman-
"a only one shot Of every 437 took Of
feet and at Waterloo the fire of one
side Of . British square emptied nc
more than three or four saddles In q
squadron Of French cavalry.
It has been estimated that In the
Crimean war the British troops fred
$4,000. 900 shots and killed 21,0OO Rus.
slams. or n death to every 700 shots,
The French fred 49, 0 900 shots and
killed $1,000 Russians, or one death
to every $50 shots; while the Russians
fired As, 900. 900 shots and killed 5000
Of the allies, or one death to every
90 shots.
When the Germans besisged Me
zieres In 1870, 10000 projectiles were
thrown into the town. but only 500
persons were killed. or one for every
s42 shot and shell. At Trouville two
persons wer killed by 10000 shells. OF
one person for every 5000. and al
Lorgny 10000 shells were nred and
did not kill . single person.
In battle there 10 not much time tc

gard rapidity Of IRE a. being more
essential than range and precision.
At tho Alma. where Russians
French and British were engaged, the
French lost 40. the Russians ~, and
the English Is per 1000 soldiers. The
Russian loss at InkermAn was very
heavy, being 10 per 1000, while the
English lost 81 and the French only

Sacramento, Cal.-The lower house

The measure, which is only II lines In
length, makes it unlawful for any per.
son to destroy any animal, vegetable
or other stuffs, In restraint OF trade,
which are customary food for human
beings and are in tit sanitary condi.
ton to be used as SUCH"
THE bill is aimed at the reputed
practice of the dealers OF de.
stroying food products in order to keep
up the market price," said Assembly
man Roberts, who introduced it,
"Shima, the Japanese potato king, Ia
reported to have thrown thousands OF
sacks of potatoes into the river when
q plentiful crop threatened to push the
price down below the point to which
his control Of the market had enabled
him to boost 1t In previous seasons"
