Dublin January 20. T"he twenty
persons recently arrested hero were be-
fore the police court to-day charged
with conspiracy to murder olllcluls.
Tho court roin was crowded. Oieal
discriminations were exercised in the
admission of citizens. A large crowd
was outride. During the progress of
the hearing of the charges against the
prisoners startling revelations were
niude. An Informer swore several
prisoners including Corrie a member
of the municipality were present at a
fenlan meeting wherein the former
was asked to join th6 Inner circle
formed for the assassination of olll-
clals. Tho name of the informer is Farrel.
He acknowledges his having taken
part In the plot to assassinate u juror.
Ho swore that one of tho prisoners
named Hanlon informed him lie had
taken part in an attempt to murder
Field; that Brady stabbed Field and
Kelly; also that ho participated in tho
allhir. Farrel also testified that three
pence were collected weekly from the
Fenians to purchase arms ; that the
city had been marked into districts
and military inspections were held oc-
casional and at which most of the ac
cused were present. At one of llieso
meetings one John Devoy who said ho
came from America presided. The
organization he said had existed for
somo years.
Farrell said the picked men formed
the assassination committee. They
were ignorant of each other. Daniel
Curly gave him a revolver and told
him to atop Fester's carriage opposite
Ellis quay when Jim Kelly and Joe
Brd would do the remainder. The
plot failed ttirough a mistake. Farrel
identiued ivoliy JJrady Ui r lawyer.
and Hoyle an ot whom were present in
the prisoners' dock as having been
present on Ellis quay when the above
mentioned uttrmpt was made to way-
lay Forster. Car Icy was very much
vexed. Farrell said Brady Kelly and
Rankin the last of whom is now in
Limerick followed Forstcr's carriage
in it cab on another occasion and Mao-
Mahou who was lately shot was as-
sisting by watching on foot. All the
prisoners were remanded for a week.

Mr. Uuekucr of Missouri Introduced a
bill amending tho act authorizing the
construction of a bridge over tho
Missouri River near St. Charles
Missouri so as to provide that no
higher charge shall bo made for trans-
portation of mulls and army supplies
across the bridge than Is made upon
railroad lines running thereto. Ite-'
ferred.
After the passage of two private bills
tho house In committee ol the whole
resumed consideration of the nayul ap-
propriation bill.
Mr. Calkins objected to the bill In its
present shape. During the course of
Ills remarks he said he was tired us an
American of Boeing his country snub-
bed laughed at and derided by other
nations on account of its weak navy.
Mr. Whlltliuruo regarded tho bill as
one of tho most Important submitted
in regard to tho naval service. Ho
concurred In the views of Mr. Calkins
that legislation should nnthuvchcen In-
serted by the appropriation committee
but tlio naval commissioner should
attend to these matters lie attacked
the retirement clause mid other pro-
visions. Tho bill seemed to appropri-
ate tlfi000000 but really appropriated

tioned an appropriation ol $150001 for

done to ask that tho lop-heu vines of
the imyy should ho rumetlloil. The
long list of u?i)lei oftlcera who In-
cumber the navy register fchould bti
exercised whether shf i were built ot
not. He commended tlio committee
for abolishing the rank of com-
mander. .Mr. Knott held that tho ofttcers now
In the pay of the government only
understood Ihcdutles theoretically and
hud too much rank and dignity to bo
of any use. If somo Indiscreet secre-
tary of tho navy should order the
chief engineer u pay director
and n medical Inspector for
duty on a ship tho vessel would inev-
itably sink. There wns not n craft
utltut which could sustain bo much

notice of amendments ho would oiler

the juiirlno corps oillcers being
performed by lino olllcera and
toward tho gradual abolition of .the
pay corps mid u reduction of tho engi-
neer corps. Ho opposes the various pro-
visions of the bill.
Mr. Harris said tho hill ho had per
fected with m much labor In the naval

To Tell the Ago T Sheep.
Tho ago of Micop like that of tho
other domestic miluiuls may bo de-
termined from the change and condi-
tion of the teeth. This is certain up

like ihe ox has eight Incisors which
are alt situated In the lower law as In
all ruminating animals Thu visible
part of the teeth which projects above
the gums is called the crown. At Its
lower end tho crown becomes thinner
and Is enveloped in tho gum. This
part Is called the neck. The lower
end of tho tooth which tapers to a
point and is situated in tho socket is
called the root. All tho teeth are
placed loosely In tho sookets anil ad-
mit of more or less motion. Thu two
middle teetli are culled tho tongs or
'guthoiers; tho two on each sldo tho
inner middle teeth j and the next on
each side tho outer middle teeth. Tho
two external ones aro called tho cor-
ner teeth.
In new-born lambs the two gather-
ers aro just vlslblo above the gums;
after six or eight days tho two Inner
mlddlu teeth and niter four or six
days moru the two outer middle teeth

days later thu two corner toeth may
be seen ; so that In threo weeks after
birth thu sheep has Its full comple-
ment of luelhors. The teeth called
milk teetli become longer and
broader and reach their full develop-
ment at tho end of tho lli'st year.
Thclruppcr edge oredge of the crown
Is somewhat pointed.
Tho milk teeth remain from eighteen
to twenty months and then lull out
and are replaced by permanent teeth
inthuMiino order in which they ap-
peared. Thu permanent teeth dlllur
Irom the milk teeth by thu fact that
the upper edge Is not pointed but
straight and dull. They aro uIho
stronger and broader than tho milk
teeth and no longer milk white but
yellowish.
When the sheep Is eighteen or twen-
ty mouths old the milk t colli full oul
and aro replaced by two permanent
teeth. The animal Is thou called two-
toothed. When the sheep Is threo and a half
years old the two outer middle teeth
mil out and are replaced by two per-
Miuent teeth.
When the sheep is four ami a half

Alter tho sixth year the Incisors un-

able degree of certainty Tho edges
of the crown gradually become nicked
and dented until they wear down al-
most to the root. This takes place lu

tongs or gathers become notched at
tho edge of tho crown and iu tho
eighth the nearest two become
notched although n more distant one

of tho gatherers become deeper. In

erers and the Inner middle teeth are
Indented very deeply and tho other
teeth also begin to show notches in

of all Incisors are broken and worn
