CowARDLY ATTEMPT At AssAssrxAr1ox
AS reported in our Sunday mornings
edition, Mr.. E. G. Hancock, OF the Herald,
Was Saturday night assaulted in the most
cowardly manner BY two persons, who are
as yet unknown. The evident purpose Of
the attack was assassination, which was
only frustrated by the silk hat which Mr..
Hancock had on serving to lesson the
force Of the blow. The gentleman was on
his way from the St. Charles Hotel to his
Office on Gravier street, when, without any
previous warning, he was approached by
two persons, one Of whom dealt him a
blow over the left eye with . slung shot.
Although the alarm was almost immedi-
ateIy given, the Williams escaped. It is hoped
that the police will ferret out this cole
bIooded attempt to murder, and bring the
parties, whoever they may be, to justice.
The wound is, luckily, not ssrious.-N.

which is being served out to the guard,
and is to)constitute benceforth the destruc-
tive firearms Of the German army. 1t ap
pears that at long range the rifle is re-
markably true. but at short distances il
requires an exceptionally low aim. 1ts
best distance is said to be 800 metres, OF
about 25o yards. 1t requires just half the
time for loading that the needle gun did
apd less (as three to four) than does the
chassepot. Eighteen shots per minuts
may be delivered by single men and twelve
shots in voiley, but as rule no more
than twelve or eight can be counted up
on. The rite is described as light ant
handy, durable and not apt to get out o.
order. Altogether. military 0au'horit'e'
