BIC GUNS CAN BE FIRED ONLY
 FROM BLOCKS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10 (by Asso- ciated Press) ).-Popular conception of the railway mount for the heavy cal iber artillery-such as the 14-inch naval guns used by the Americans in Francois that these big guns can be fired as they move along the tracks. Major General w. F. Coe of the coast artillery explains that this is erron- eOus.
 Essentially, a concrete block is necessary" he says. "Over it the gun is run on it's trucks and then placed upon the block. We actually take the trucks out from under the gun when it is fired and it stands on carriage with an arc of fire of 360 degrees The guns can be taken from one posi- tion to a similarly prepared position. The real thing is you can send the guns to strategic points"
 For the defense of the country from a naval attack, General Coe declares it is we'll known where the blocks will be needed and that preparations can be made long ahead of time as part of the regular fortification program.

NAVY WORKERS ARE DEPRIVED
 OF PENSIONS

VALLEJO, Cal, Aug. 10 (by Asso- ciated Press) s).-Because of the inser- ton of the word classified" in the cfvil service retirement bill, enacted in the closing days of the last session of congress, more than 1000 employees of the Mare island navy yard here who have put in over 30 years service for the government will be unable to get any pension, it is believed. Many of these men who are hardly able to get around and who have been given the lightest kind of work in order to allow them to hold on till such time as the retirement measure would be enacted.
 The first intimation that this dis Junction had been made was when ~6pies of the bill were received here, specifying 70 years as the retirement age for clerks, draftsmen, etc., and 75 years for mechanics and helpers.
 There is only one way in which the matter can be rectifed, it is said, and that is by an executive order, issued ,,pon recommendation of the civil ser vice commission.

FAMOUS ACTOR ANSWERS LAST
 CURTAIN CALI.

NEW LONDON, Conn, Aug. 10 (by Associated Press). - James O'Nein, the famous actor, died here last night.
 For more than fifteen years and in more than 5000 performances, James O'Neill played the part of Edmund Dantes in "The Count of Monte Christo," until his name became so as- sociated with that play that in the minds of drama lovers that to men, tion one was to suggest the other. It was his great part, the character in which he achieved his greatest sue cess and, despite his efforts to discard it for others, he was often compelled to return to it in qualification of public demand or at the request of theatrical managers.
 MT. O'Neil made his first appearance in that play at Booths theater in New York, in 1883, under the management of John Stetson, when Charles P. Thorne, who played the part of Dantes, died. MT. O'Neil took the part and thereafter played it continuously for years.
 An unusual incident in MT. O'Neirs career was his attempt to impersonate Christ in a Passion play produced in 1880 at San Francisco, where O'Neil was then popular player The effort was drowned upon by the authorities despite the fervor and reverence with which MT. O'Neil essayed the part and, after running for a few weeks, it had to be withdrawn Later an at tempt was made by Henry E. Abbey to produce the Passion play in New York with Mr. O'Neil in the leading role but it was prevented by the au- thOrities.
 MT. O'Neil was brought to this country when small child from the home of his parents in Kilkenny, Ire land where he was born November 15, 1S49. His first appearance on the stage was in the National theater at Cincinnati in 1868. Subsequently he apepared at the St. Louis Varieties, played for a season in Cincinnati, was leading juvenile in Baltimore com pany; played in a Chicago stock com pany for two years; and appeared with Adelaide Nelson and Edwin Booth in classic plays. .- -.s. ..
 He went to New York in 1875 and played Pierre" in "The Two Or phans," the prince in "nhe Dani- choffs," and as Jean 'Renaud in "A Celebrated Case" Beginning in 1898 he achieved an enviable reputation as D'Artagnan in "The Musketeers." He attempted many years ago to retire from the stage but often was recalled to appear in romantic drama, in which he was at his best.

quoians do to make you happy?"
"Why, to begin with, Mr. Poundstone,
you might accept my solemn assur-
ances that despite the skeptcism
which for some unknown reason ap-
pears to shroud our enterprise in the
minds of some people, we have incor-
porated railroad company for the
purpose of building a railroad. The
only thing that can possibly interfere
with the project will be the declina-
tion of the city council to grant us a
franchise to run our line through the
city to tidewater. And l am glad to
have your assurance that the city
council will not drop a cold chisel in
the cogs Of the wheels of progress"

Buck soliloquized as he walked rapid

The visitor was accordingly admit
