A Test of Modern Arms.

The battle of Adowa, where King Menelek's
troops overthrow weii-armed European
forces, attacking the infantry in hand-to-
hand fight and taking entire batteries with
out their being able to fire a single round
has disconnected those who hitherto insisted
that it would be impossible to get anywhere
near troops equipped with modern arms, says
the Philadelphia Ledger. This is because
firing in actual warfare and in peace practice
have nothing in common. According to Gen
eral CosseTon de Villenoisy, the French army
expert, the reason lies in the fact that,
while in the latter case the target is clearly
discernible and the distance readily esti-
mated, in war the enemy keeps well out of
sight, and there will always be slight undu-
lations of the grounds, hedges, bushes or
maybe even herbs or tufts of grass, which
more or less obstruct the view, and hence the
fire is aimed at random and almost in
variably high. There is always a dangerous
zone" at some distance, where the bullets
fall t%hickest, and by advancing beyond this
the enemy can avoid most of the danger.
This is what happened at Adowa and what
will always be fatal to young, impressionable
troops, while the fire will have its full effect
in the case Of calm and experienced, that is
to say, old soldiers.

CAUGHT A SEA MONSTER.
A Little of Everything. and Nobod
Cnn Tnu Mhnt He Is.

A Little of Everything. and Nobody
Cnn Tell what He Is.
CAPTAIN Shannon and his crew, after a
fierce struggle of over two hours, captured
and killed a sea monster off Caviar, N. j.,
the like of which none of the fishermen had
ever seen.
The strange fish weighs about 500 pounds
and is fifteen feet long, of a light seal color
and is quite slender at the tail. The head Is
about two feet long, with a horn growing
from the nose, and there are two rows of
teeth in the large mouth. The eyes are like
those Of a shark, with an elongated pupil.
The body is covered with a coat OF mail, or
scales, that resemble oXydizei silver. The
dorsal fin is very small, and there are spout
holes in the nose. The monster is I'M
doubtedly the same one that has been terrify-
ing the fishermen at the capes for the past
ten years. Some of the fishermen claim 1t is
a veritable sea serpent.
Captain Shannon and several or ms men
we're LAYING out their large drift net
about a mile below this port, when
one of them noticed an object in the water
about half a mile down the river. He called
the attertion of Captain shannon ana the
rest of the crew to the object, which seemed
to he making a great commotiOn in the water.
Suddenly the monster leaped into the air
and the men were Mortified at its proportions.
The monster moved through the water SO
rap!dly that it dashed the spray right ana
left. It's head was lifted hlgn III 'he All dnu
II was a terrifying looking object as 1t swan
toward the boat in a direct line. Captain
Shannon said it looked like an immense
alligator as it got nearer and he saw the
cleaning teeth and glazing eyes.
AS the monster seemed determined TO at-
tscl, the boat, Captain Shannon gave orders
for all hands to secure oars, poles, axes, or
anything they could make a fight with, and
stand ready to give battle. When within
TWENTY-FIVE feet of the boat the monster
Leaned into the air like a %porpoise and Owed
under the craft. But in going down the
strange fish or serpent became entangied IN
the net. 1t then made a dash for the poat'
carving the net with it. Captain shannon
stood In the stern of the craft with a large
gaff iron and as the monster raised from the
water he struck 1t a terrific blow on the
head. Down the monster went again, making
a circle around the boat, and coming up at
the how. 1t was completely wound up in
the net by this time and was soon killed
with an axe and towed ashore.
