'it w?s reported to the commanding
officer here in June that J. Montgom

who were oui of grub, nrar the head of
the White river. A government pack
train which started for there returned
yesterday, and report having got within
thirty mi es of their destination, but
were unable to go further owing to
high wa'.er. They report an outfit
tnree days aheni where they turned
back, with a year's supply of grub tak

Traces of Johnson and Stuckman, who

DRAWING FINE WIRE.
Diamond Tllra \rr
Rein* Hani Fnoa?ti.
Diamonds are unoil quite extensively
it dies for drawing wire of the small
est sizes? for Instance. the sties i*sa
than, say. twenty-IJve one thonaandths
of an ItH-h diameter.
The hanlest steel dies are not suitable
for this work for the reason that the
wear upon them no enlarges the die
that the diameter of the wire Is not uni
form within the required percentage of
rartatlon at the lieglnnlng ami end of
a drawing. Sapphires are used some
limes for this wtirk. Copper, silver and
platinum are the metala usually drawn
to the very small sixes
With diamond dies It Is practicable
to draw platinum to a diameter of five
ten-tliousamlths of an Inch. An Me*
of the fineness of a copper wire drawn
to only three one-thousandths of an
Inch in diameter may be gathered from
the faet that In one pound of the metal
there are over six miles of sueh wire.
The weight of the diamonds used for
this work Is from four to five carats,
and they are uncut except as to the die.
The value of these dies, whieh, of
course, are not of the first water, va
ries from J 1.1 to $20 a carat, ami sev
eral hundred thousand dollars' worth
of diamonds are utilised as die* In the
various wire factories of this country

Victory nt Hamllltc*.
Ttie senilis of Marlborough soiled up
on the simple fact that the arc Is great
er than Its chord when he won his
great victory at Kami I Ilea. The French
army under Vlllerol was posted In an
arc on a ridge of hills. Their left ex
tended to the village of Autre Kgllse
ami owing to the steepness of the hills
and the river aud marsh In front waa
In an almost impregnable position
Their forces swept round on the top of
the ridge till they reached on the ex
treme right a height behind the village
of Hamlllles known as the Tomb of Ot
tamond.
Marlborough saw that this height was
the key to the position. He first made
a vigorous feint on Autre Kglise and
so caused the French generals to hurry
In peraon to that point. Then he moved
large bodies of troo|?s rapidly and ?e
cretly along the chord of the arc and
carried the position on the French right
liefotv Vlllerol had time to bring up re
enforcements by the longer line of the
curve.
This Is easily understood when It la
remembered that the chord of an arc la

of an arc or two points In a curve ?
