C., March 22. — Plans have just been completed by the naval bureau of ordnance for the con struction of a torpedo factory at New port naval station. • This will be the first time the government has under taken to make its own torpedos on a large scale, heretofore all weapons of that kind having been prepared under contract from private makers. The new factory will give employment to at least 200 skilled workmen as soon as it is in running order. It is proposed to make every part of the torpedo *vith the exception of the steel flasks, which contain the compressed air used to drive the engines and propel the torpedoes. Material of particular excellence is required for these flasks, o\fcng to the high pressure they are obliged to sustain, ranging in the case of the latest torpedoes up to 3,000 pounds to the square inch. The ma chinery necessary for their manufac ture is expensive and expert workman ship is required, so that it is believed to be cheaper to procure them from the concerns now making similar : flasks for commercial uses than to un ! dertake to make them in a government shop.

"You see, Addie Pip er hasn't fully made up her mind yet to let him knok that she intends to have him and not Lon Howe. Soon as he gets his bearings on that point and the girl settles down a bit, there won't be anything cynical or pessimistic left in Jim. "You're here the wrong week, that's all. Lon Howe had this Saturday night. If you were going to be here next Sunday, you'd notice a consid'able lightening up in Jim's views. His mother and I do every other week." — Youth's Companion.

The women, screaming loudly, at once began to run. and the man evidently fearing that the piercing shrieks of the women would bring immediate assist ance to their aid, sprang back into the shrubbery and dashed down the side of the hill. The ladies were so badly frightened that the only description they could give of the would-be highwayman was that he was a tall, slender white man. Officers and others were quickly on the scene, attracted by the cries of the vtoinen, and the grounds in the vicini ty were quickly searched, but without ( locating the man. and thus far there has been no clue discovered as to his identity, in spite of a vigilant search being made by the police.

The old and cheap way is called air cured; the later discovery and im proved way is called flue cured. t In flue curing the tobacco is taken from the fields and racked in barns especially built to retain heat and there subjected to a continuous high temperature, produced by the direct heat of flame heated flues, which brings out in the tobacco that stimulating taste and aroma that expert roasting develops in green coffee. These similar processes give to both tobacco and coffee the cheer ing and stimulating quality that pop ularizes their use.

That's why chewers prefer Schnapps, because Schnapps cheers more than any other chewing tobacco, and that's why chewers of Schnapps pass the good thing along —one chewer makes other chewers, until the fact is established that there are more chewers and more pounds of tobacco chewed to the population in states where Schnapps tobacco is sold than there are in those states where Schnapps has not yet been offered to the trade.

As to The Use Of Raleigh, March 22. —A matter con nected with the work of the General Assembly that is at least affording some opportunity to talk is the ques tion of the right of the presiding ofli cer of this house and. senate to use stencils in signing and ratifying acts passed by the legislature. It seems that a large number of the bills pass ed have been signed with the stencil instead of the pen. However, there seems to be no question about the signatures having been affixed by the officers in person even if they were sighed with the pressure of the sten cil instead of the formation of the signature letter by letter with the pen. The whole matter resolves itself into whether the official signature c;in lie affixed wjth a stencil. The contention is"advanced that the use of the sten cil would open the doors too complete ly to opportunity for fraud in (lie preparation cf bogus bills to which tlie stencil signatures of the presiding offi cers could be attached. Chief Justice Walter Clark, of the Supreme Court, says the stencil signa tures to ratified acts of the General Assembly are legal and 110 question as to acts can be raised 011 this ground, the stencil signatures being recognized now the country over.
