lines. a second volley of buckshot could
be discharged at point-blank range.
| Thus. in the charge, each man would
strike, say, 20 buckshot blows. fairly
well directed. instead OF one or two
sabre cuts. or maybe two or three
random pistol shots. Consequently. up
to and on the moment of impact, the
scatter gun" would multiply manifold
the death striking efficiency of the
charging horsemen. In the retreat or
rally for new or return charge. the
regulation pistol with its six shots in
tact, would be all-sufficient; while the
scatter gun" would still retain four
deadly loads. Nor would the virtue

reform and prepare to charge back in
stantly through the ranks of their foes,
still broken and disordered by the first
shock, the scatter guns" would still
be ready. without reloading the maya
zines, for a repetition of the double
discharge of the first onset, and still
retain cartridges enough for a third
dash at the enemy--an almost impossi-
BILE occurrence in military practice.
Thus, practically, the scatter gun" far
excels the saber in death-dealing on
the charge. Morally also its spec
tacular erect is hardly, II at all,
less than the sword or lance. There is
something awful in seeing a trooper
ride down upon one with a naked,
flashing sabre uplifted. But there is
something possibly more demoralizing
in the muzzle of a shotgun, heavily
loaded with buck. 80 steps off. Ask
frontiersmen, accustomed to use and
face arms. Men, who have often faced
and Winchesters will hesi-
tate before encountering a resolute
man with a double-barreled shotgun.
There would be something overpower-
ing then in the on-rush of a regiment
of trained shots, each with a cooked
shotgun raised in the air. The uplift-
ed barrels, glittering in the sun, would
reflect as sinister a glare from the adj
vancing line as so many sabers; the
of what those barrels
contained would make the boldest en-
envy quail.

A Wilmington Firm which Is Gaining u
Wide Reputation for Superior Work.
The John M. Rogers Press of this
city Is gaining reputation fur an wide
for artistic printing and some OF the
work turned out from this well-known
establishment during the past few days
cannot fail to be the means of adding
additional fame to the house and at
tracting more than ordinary attention
from all who admire fine printing.
The Ladies' Home Journul Of Phila-
delphia is about to offer a portfolio
containing II masterpieces OF illustra-
tions from well-known artists, and
their work has Just been finished by
tho John M. Rogers Press Tho pro-
ductions are on the finest paper and
arc executed with exquisite taste. Tho
fact that this work, which must neces-
earily be of the very highest order of
workmanship and finish, comes to Will
mington proves eouclusively tho high
opinion the critics have of the ability
of sthe Rogers Press, and any one who
can judge of the excellence of these
latest productions cannots but feel as
sured that this confidence in their
ability has not been misplaced. The
productions mentioned are half tnne
engravings with wood cut effects and
their execution in the manner which
the Rogers Press has performed it is
just as much of an art as were the
original productions by the artists
themselves. The ideas embodied are
just as clearly brought out and as stated
previously the finish Ia perfect. Ono
of the illustrations included in the
portfolio is that entitled 1.-THE Wore
wolf" by Howard Pyle Of this city.
During the past week requests have
come to the Rogers Press from the tar
Western States and even up in Canada
for samples of their work, and ono of
the leading magazines in tho country
has been using some OF the original
Illustrations which first appeared in a
booklet issued by the Rogers Press. A
complete stereotyping outfit is the
latest addition to the many conyeniences
of this well-known printing house.

Spangle work will, without doubt,
become extremely popular. We believe
that many who are fond Of using their
needles to beautify their homes, and
consequently take notice of en-
broideries and so FORTH have no con-
ception Of the charming decorations
which can be produced by means OF
spangles. They do not see them in the
shops they frequent. The mere name
OF spangles suggests to them perhaps
gaudy, glittering ornamentation. How
erroneous this idea. which is dismissed
with the fret glance at a good speti-
men of this work.
The most delightful effects are secured
by using small oval spangles in con-
junction with chenille and fine silk
embroidery. Spangle work looks its
best on white satin, or on some softly
tinted moire. To execute these designs
no great technical knowledge OF em-
broidery is needful; the great point is
to be natty, to have deft fingers. A
lovely frame for photo is worked with
rosebuds and other small flowers,
spangles forming the leaves; the stems
are of shaded green chenille, and kind
of feather stitch that gives lightness
to the design, which shows well on the
white satin ground.
Two exquisite oval flowers are of
white moire with spanglod ornamental
tion. The design Is copied from an old
frame, and is light and graceful. Rows
of gold cord are sewn ON to form a
braid, this is repeated, and between
the two braids are ribbons embroidered,
and French bows represented by tiny
dark red spangles.
Most bewitching are the spangled
opera or small work bags; they should
be seen to be appreciated, for the har-
monies of color are so pretty. Then
thoy look almost as il fingers had never
touched them. We could have guessed
them French creations had We not
known the contrary. Here is the de.
scription Of one: A circular shaped
bag, with wide heading left above
the drawstring; it is composed of soft
shellpink silk. and lined With the
palest blue; ON the lining of the head
ing, which falls over the bag, an
elegant design is worked. We can best
describe it as feathery pattern, the
marguerites having softly tinted pstals
of pink spangles, and the buds repre-
sented by small green spangles.
