UNCLE SAM'S
 COAST DEFENDER

Brigadier-GeneraI Erasmus Nor gan Weaver, who as chief of the coast artillery of the United States army has brought that branch of the ser vice to high state of efficiency, is a native of Lafayette, Ind, where he was born sixty-two years ago today, May 23, 1854. He graduated from West Point in 1875 and entered the artillery branch of the service, in which he has won international repu- tation. Gen Weaver is considered one of the foremost American authori- ties on the subject of big guns, and there is very little he doesn't know about ordnance. One of the achieve ments of the Weaver regime is the 6 inch gun mounted at Panama to help defend the canal. It is about fifty feet in length, with an outside diam eter of sixty inches at the breech. The charge of powder. including igniter, weighs about a third of a ton. and the gun fires prOjectfle weighing considerably over a ton. With the gun elevated to an agle of 1 5 degrees it has range of about eleven miles The main batteries of most of Uncle Sam's seacoast defences consist of twelve-inch guns, but in the newer de- lenses. fourteen-inch guns have been installed. Since the outbreak of the European war Gen. Weaver has been an advocate of larger guns for the, United States coast defences. With the coast defnces armed with twelve inch guns, a, naval force atta cking with larger guns would have distinct advantage not counterbalanced by the fact that the shore guns have a firmer foundation and can thus be fired with greater accuracy.
 ttUnIess the coast defences have guns as large as those of an attacking naval force" said Gen. Weaver. ''the Qualifications may be subjected not only to a very much greater volume of fire than can be delivered by them but also have the disadvantage of re- plying to that fire with guns of in ferior power both by reason of the diameter of the bore of the gun and by reason of its shorter length, it be- ing understood that for. any given diam eter of bore the power of the gun is a direct function of it's length. From the time he was appointed to the command of the coast artillery Gen. Weaver began to make demands for more men. The coast artillery service demands men of unusual quail ifications, and such can gain higher ! remuneration in commercial service. Electricians of great ability and ma rine engineers able to command high salaries are developed by Uncle Sam s coast artillery, and they must needs 1 be men of unsua1 patriotism to resist
 the lures held forth by private em- ployers

ACROSS
 THE BORDER

The first occasion since the founding of the republic upon which a United States military organization took part in a celebration in honor of an Eng fish monarch was on May 23, 1879, thirty-seven years ago today, when the Thirteenth regiment of the New York National Guards arrived in Montreal. The purpose of the '1nvasion'' of the military force, which hailed from Brooklyn, was to join in Montreals s celebration of the sixtieth birthday of Queen Victoria, which was held in Mount Royal Park on the following day. The relations between the United States and Canada were considerably strained during and following the civil war, because of the Fenian raids and other matters, but within a decade this III feeling was forgotten, and the visit of the Brooklyn soldiers helped to in itiate that Hands Across the Border spirit of cordiaIity which has since ob- tained between the two great nations of North America. The Americans were welcomed by the Governor Gen eral, the Marquis of Lorne, as broth CTS in arms and brothers in bloood and great tradition and at the ban quet in honor of the visitors the Gov ernor's toast to the President was re- sponded to by the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, the distinguished chaplain of the Thirteenth.

France Seeks Dyewod

Paris, May 23.-An inventory of for est trees from which may be derived extracts suitable for the rnanufa cture of dyes has just been made by the Ag- ricultural Department. The tree that abounds the most in France in co1oring properties is the black oak, but there are some yellow oaks whose extract is considered even more valuable which gives different shades of brown color. and the extract of which, it is recalled was used to dye the uniforms of the soldiers from Tenn essee and Kentucky n the War Of Secession. It is thought that by a systematic effort a wealth of coloring material may be derived from the French forests though they in no wise compare with the American forests in vegetable coloring matter.

Three Gents a Day To
 Keep Man from Starving

Buffalo. May. 23.-'tWe have been informed by the American central re- lief committee for Jewish war sufferers that it will take only three cents to supply a starving Jew with enough bread daily to keep him alive,'' said Rabbi Louis J. Kopa1d, chairman of the Buffalo Hebrew relief committee for Jewish war sufferers which is this week endeavoring to raise $50.0OO to send to the Jewish victims of the war, hundreds of thousands of whom are dying in Europe. 'sThe work of distributing the food and medicine by the relief committee has been so sys- tematized that the greatest amount of food can be bought with itte money. By giving a dollar to the relief fund a man can do more good than if he gave a dollar direct to the suffering, for in buying food, clothing and medicine in such great quantity the relief commit tee is able to get more than the indi- vidual could secure for that dollar
 "Our campaign in Buffalo, which is made only among Jews is coming along n a remarkable manner. We planned 3to raise S5,0O0 a day and though that is a pretty stiff figure to aim at we have eclipsed it by $1,174 in the first three days One of the most satisfy ing features of the campaign is that we have had about a half dozen sub scriptions from others than Jews and as these came entirely unsolicited we appreciate them doubly. The public mass meeting Sunday at Elmwood Mu- sic hall when Sholen Ash and Dr. J. event in Buffalo Jewry. We expect to raise enough that night to go beyond the $50,000 mark
