WASHINGTON. Dec. 20. The mil ft'xt or the confidential report to Congress, personteel by the Secretary or War, which declared that the rnlted states Is unprepared to resist Invasion, has been secured by the press. It Is the report which the Hones refused to receive In secret and which was withdrawn by order of the President when this refusal was made known. The report declares that the regu lar army Is deficient In number and defective ill other enumerated re spects, ft says that the organized nillitlii is also deficient In number, lacklllK 111 eiiulpinenl, too widely scattered, and otherwise below the murk. The Const dereuses are de ficient In equipment ami ammunition, the report goes on. Secretary Dickinson declares, in summing up that "no well defined policy ns to Hie development of the military resources of the country In relation to the mobile army exists," so rur as he Is able to ascretaln. I'ncllle Need J.'t.'i.OOO Men, Exclusive of Alaska, the Pacific Const is nbout lr.on miles lone;. "The defenses already established." says the report, "require as a mini mum for their effective operation neuinst attack from the sea 10.265 officers and men of the Const Artil lery Corps. To meet this require ment we have available in all parts of the I'nlted Stales, as already stated, a total force of 20,400 coast .mlllery and 4 200 mllltla coast ar tillery. "This roree. If Is thought, could be assembled In the Pacific Coast lorts In from 20 to 30 days."

A pood theory thai won't work Imi, half as good as a poor one Unit will. Twenty years ami a young man Jusi out of college hud a great Idea. He waa Holms to tin plate tomatoes. There wns lu be no inure trutililcNomc purine and cooking mid canning lu preserve tomatoes throutrliont winters. It would be necessary only to drop a nice ripe tomato Into his tinning solution and II would come out runted wlih tin and would keep fur twenty yeurs. In fact, there wasn't any reaaou why it should not keep forever: The young inventor figured It would cust hint (ill cents a gallon to make this tlnnlnit solution It surely would sell for 2 a gallon. Every one eaiv tomatoes that Is. near ly every one. Everybody wuuld eul them If they cuuld ulwaya have a nice tin plated tomato lying around. He ought to aell a nillllou gallons a year. That would be a prodt of a nil I Hon and a half dul Well, no tin plated lonm toes are on the market yet. and the man who Invented them la silll making only $15 a week. The mural of this la that whenever you bear of a great Idea that Is going to reform or uplift the world make sure that It is nut of the tin pluted tomato brand. ChU ago Tribune. A Lottery Romance.

The ticket, aer much trouble, was found ilt had lieeu reject ed a few minutes earlier by a wealthy citizen of C'oniunai and bought, and before many days had passed ttie me chanic uud hia wile were imule Jubi lant by the uews that the ticket hud won the tlrst prize of 20(,uoo.
