He discovered incongruities and divided responsibilities in the duties devolving upon the different bureau chiefs under the present and he also found it difficult, under the existing system of business, to arrange and classify the new supplies and sources of supply needed for the creation of new fleets, and to continue the work of increasing the navy.

Excursion rates to the battle ground: Round trip tickets from New Orleans and to the battle ground and return, with the privilege of witnessing the fight, $10; extra rates, with special privileges, including ticket for inner ring and camp stool, $15. Special parties of sixty can secure pri vate car at $10 each, $5 a head extra for inner ring ticket and camp stool. There will* be positively only one excursion train, and that will leave New Orleans. The rings will be built by James Flynn, wbo put up the ropes for the Mace-Allen, Mace-Coburn and Ryan-Bullivan battles. The battle ring will, of course, be twentyfour feet square, and the outside ring, in which will be only the seconds and bottje holders, will be twenty-eight feet square, while ariain phi theatre will be built for tho»e who pay $15 for their tickets.

It simplifies and equalizes the work of some of the bureaus, and concentrates duties that in many cases are now scattered among several bureaus. In general, the new organization groups the duties of construction, equipment and supply logically and systematically among several bureaus, and places the personnel and discipline of officers and men—heretofore scattered among several bureaus—under the board of navigation. Another important and new feature of the reorganization of the departmental work is that constituting the chiefs of the five bureaus that have to do with the preparation of material, yards and docks, ordnance, equipment, construction and steam engineering, to be ex-officio a board for the design, construction and equipment of new ships. Practically one effect of the order will be to make the bureau of navigation correspond to the adjutant general's office in the war department, in the control of the entire personnel of the organization. To the bureau of yards and docks is assigned all that relates to the construction and maintenance of dock"*, slips, buildings within navy yards, the naval home, and generally about the same duties as it now discharges. The bureau of equipment and recruiting los s the apprentice system and the enlistment of men, but gains the naval observatory, nautical almanac, hydrographic and compass offices, and the electric light system. In the case of the remaining bureaus, it is noticeable that all of them are4(to have exclusive jurisdiction over the buildings and plants assigned to their use in the navy yards after they have been constructed by the bureau of yards and docks. All of the bureaus are also empowered to purchasf such stores, tool-*, plant and material as the' may need. Groceries, Labee Died Hard. Sheriff Cadmus jerked tbe rope which dropped a weight of 600 pounds at 9:17 a. m. exactly, and in an instant Labee went flying up towards the cross beam. Then the body dashed down again with "a jerk, and for a few seconds remained quiet The awful death struggle then ensued. The somber black cap concealed the face, but the bosom rose and fell convulsively, the pinioned hands closed and unclosed violently, and so it went on for fifteen minutes before the physician pronounced him dead.

He refers to Attorney General Webster's examination of Mr. YVilliam O'Brien before the Parnell commission, in the course of which Mr. Webster plainly intimated that grave charges would be proved again t certain Irishmen if it could be shown that they regarded the English power as an alien power in Ireland. Speaking of Mr. O'Brien's evidence after the session, the attorney general said: (tI should like to have asked Mr. O'Brien whether the Irish, as far as he knew, regarded the act of union as possessed of the same moral authority as the laws against theft or murder, or whether he considered that they possessed any moral authority at all."
