HUMANITARIANiSM MISCARRIES
The Manniicher Rife Is n Most Murderous
Instead of Fierceful Weapon.

The Mannlicher Rifle Is Most Murderous
Instead of Fierceful Weapon.
1t has been said, says the San
Francisco Argonaut, that the mod
ern small bullet is most humani-
tartan invention, inasmuch as it
does not produce such an extensive
destruction of tissue on entering the
body as the large, heavy missile Of
the near past. But this is most
absurd assumption. The Lebel pat
tern of firearms is that now gen.
orally employed in the infantry forces
Of the German, French and English
armies, all using the Schwalb smoke
less powder. The Roumanian army
has lately adopted the Mannlicher
rifle, which it appears from the ex-
tensive experiments Of Demosthenes
is the most powerful, the lightest,
and the most accurate Of all. Its
destructive energy is something too
great to contemplate. One-half the
volume Of Schwalb's powder possesses
more than double the projecting
power of the older kinds. 1t enables

thus light and concentrated in po-
tency, the soldier going into action
can carry comfortably in his cartouch
nearly four times as many cartridges
as in former times. With the breech-
loading, revolving rifle it is estimated
that from twenty to forty accurate
shots can be fired in a minute. De-

standing position, with their clothes
on, from one to two centimetres
apart. They were then fired at with
this weapon at distance of thou
sand metres, or about half mile,
with the result that the bullet, when
it was not arrested by bone, passed
completely through the first two
bodies. At five hundred metres it
tore completely through all the
bodies in most cases. In all, it went
through the first two in every in
stance, doing great destruction to the
osseous structures. His experimental
work was extended to the living ami
NAL, large number of horses having
been thus sacrificed. The compound
action which the peculiar bore Of the
rife imparts to the missile is such
that, when it strikes, 1t so rotates
and revolves on itself that it makes
a very large wound. In the greater
number of horses hit at three-quar-
tiers of a mile-when the bullet en-
tered any of the cavities-death
frequently was instantaneous through
hemorrhage At twelve hundred
metres, or two-thirdSnn a mile,
wounds inflicted by this missile were
mortal, the ball passing through sew
eral coils OF the intestine, whether
filed or empty, and extensively
decorating any OF the viscera that 1t
came in contact with. Hence the
field hospital must be placed at
great distance in the rear, as the
zone of danger is everywhere within
three thousand five hundred to four
thousand metres, and It will be
serious affair to remove with celebrity
a great number of wounded. From
all OF which 1t is curious to know
from what side any one can regard
the Lebel or Mannlicher musket in
its effects as Humanitarian"

A new method OF giving ships bot

said, been lately tried at New York
with success. The method employed
is as follows: The vessel is put into
dock and the entire hull is surround

watertight canvas supported by net

A Word to Husbands.

We are going to speak to the men
those thoughtless ones who love
their wives dearly, but who make
their lives ten times harder than is
necessary by committing acts of care
lessness that mean just so much more
work for the tired brain and body Of
the woman they promised to love and
cherish. The active, busy creature
whose daily existence Is passed out of
doors, does not realize how many
steps 1t takes to get the house into
that state of perfect order that greets
his eye whenever his steps carry him
into the house at close of day. Per-
haps, to him, the sigh that springs
from patient lips seems affected as
the wife brushes up the mud tracks
he has made upon the carpet or picks
up the clothes he has thrown at ran
dom about the tidy apartment. He
may think her over particular IL she
requests him not to tilt back in his
chair or chidcs him about rubbing
his head against the fresh wall paper,
and yet he will be the first to COM
plain that their carpets look worn
long before they should, their furni-
lures gives out uncommonly soon and
the wall paper has a greasy look he
doesn't see In Mr.. So-and-so's house
across the way. We believe all men
mean TO be kind, but they err through
carelessness. 1t Is the trifies, the
worrying little things that bring the
lines of care to wife's face long be-
fore they should be there. When
lavish with your means and honestly
sincere in your affection be little
more careful about the frivolities.
Don't fret the tidy wives with acts of
slovenly indulgence or forgetfulness.
Watch and see where you can help
them and IL you are too blind to dis
cover how that can be done, don't
hinder them.

diseased por ton OF the ear. There Is only one
way to cure Deafness, and that is by oonstitu-
tional remedies Deafness is caused by an in

Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed
you have q rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when IT is entirely closed Deafness is
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused ny catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition of

editor and proprietor of the San Fran

Born in st. Louis, in 1S4s, he went

A simple millionaire.

In a recent number OF McClure's
Magazine Arthur Warren writes very
interestingly of Philip d. Armour,
one of the most philanthropical mill
ionaires In America. Armour is in
every way large man, says the writ
er, large in build, In mind and In
nature. He is nearly six feet high
and with kind of stately bulk that
turns the scales at something like
$50 pounds. He moves easily but he
thinks in flashes. He has the strong
est and at the same time the sweet
est face that / have ever seen In a
man. His voice is kindly in its tone
and low; and while his eyes twinkle
and around them are the lines OF
good humor, there is in them all the
shrewdness, all the searching quality
that you can imagine a man OF his
record to possess. They are the eyes
of an analyst OF human nature.

A LITTLE GIRL BURNED.-The ten
year-old daughter of MIR. Charles Foley
living on the west side of Washington
street, between Wolfe and Wilkes, was
severely burned last night. The little
girl, with lighted Chinese lantern in
her hand, had opened trunk for the
purpose of procuring piece of candle,
when she dropped the lantern among
the infammable contents. A fire fol-
lowed and the child was seriously
burned about the neck and breast.
Two gentlemen who were passing at
the time ran into the house and e1-
tinguished the fire. The girl, upon the
arrival Of a physician, was found to be
seriously burned.
