This population is so disuributed in several of the Re- publican siates that there is reasona le ground for the belief that the politics of several states would be changed, should the Negrovoters deseit the Ke publican party and co-operate with the Vemocratic party, if that party should declare itseif, without reserve in favo j ot giving the Philippine island entue freedom. “The objection may arise. and pro- bably it wiil be mage on the part of chose who advocate the continued sup- porc of the Republican party by the Negrves of the country, that a com- biuation of one class of people to se- cure a cer.ain result im politics and government has in it the quali.y of uupropriety, if net of wrong doing.

William Crozier, chief of the bureau of ordnance, in his annual re- port to the secretary of war says the improved musket has been com- pleted and tried with very satisfac tory results, the various changes not only improving the weapon, but cheap- | ening and accelerating the production. The rod bayonet is a feature of the new rifle. Its advantage is said to lie in the fact that it lightens the weight of the gun and dispenses with the bayonet and bayonet scabbard now ip use, and in the place of whink intrenching tools may be carried by the soldier. The new piece weighs but a little less than 9% pounds, considerably lighter than the German and the Mauser, yet has greater velocity and greater penetration. It is noted that opinions differ as to the value of the rod bayonet. The construction of 5,000 of the new muskets has been au- thorized. Gen. Crozier embraces in his report the conclusions of the board of ord- nance and fortificaiton on the recent tests of the several systems for a new field gun to show why the ordnance department model is superior. He says the bureau is proceeding with the manufacture of field material from | designs which it has prepared concur- rently with the development of knowl- edge by tests. Generally speaking the new gun will have a caliber of three inches and will fire a projectile weigh- | ing 15 pounds with an initial velocity | of 1,700 feet per second. The breech | mechanism will be of the ordnance de- partment type with certain modifica- tions for securing safety. will have a recoil of from 45 to 4% | inches.

Zelie de Lussan Gives Some Good Advice to Girls. “Don't Marry While You Are om tha Stage,” She Says—The Sphere of a Troe Woman Is in Her Own Happy Home. ' Though she has been stabbed 608 times, smothered 50 times, and cut up with knives 100 times, Mlle. Zelie de Lussan is mighty alive. The prime donna is as full of gayety as if the air were balmy, the sun shining, and Chi cago the loveliest place in the world. ‘or one who has been so badly abused, I am in tolerable good health,” said Mile. Lussan, to a Chicago Journal reporter. “You see, | have been killed in ‘Carmen’ 600 times, smothered im ‘Othello’ 50 times, and knifed in ‘Pag- liacci” as many a hundred. We opera singers have to pass through a@ great dea!, but our vitality is ex- traordinary. Now, girls, hsten to what mademoi+ selle has to say about getting mar- ried. “Women on the stage should not get married at all,” said Zelie, with a very @:phatic toss of her great mass of hair. “They have all they can do to manage their operatic work. I am thoroughly against it. Besides, the operatic husbend is generally a sorry personage. He makes his wife’s life more or less of a burden. She has to do all the work, and he thinks he has the privilege of doing all the scold- ing. y “It seems to be the popular idea,” she says, “that prima donnas are made of money. I assure you, if they make @ great deal, they also haye to spend a great deal.. I remember singing im Leeds once in opera, and a dear old gentleman who had seen me frequent ly wrote me a long letter. Hesaid: ‘TL seppose, like all ycur sister. artista, you spend your money as quickly as you .sake it. I have been watching you from the front of the house, and have takeu a fatherly interest in your affairs.’ He inclosed a list of 20 im MLLE. ZELIE DE LUSSAN.

He said: “Take my advice and save yous money.’” “And did you?” “J did not need the advice. I waa rather a wise woman myself. I did not carry the romantic disposition of the operatic heroines with me off the stage. They are somewhat an im provident set of people, and they are not my models.” “The sphere of a true woman,” said the prima donna, archly, “is to have man do just what she wants him to.
