superior to the systems employed on
the English and Russian warships, as

But the Australian invention is a big

The advantages of this system are
readily apparent. In the case of an

every movement of the enemy, and
under these conditions there would be
small chance of its escaping uninjured,
as the accuracy of these great cannons

The method of locating the position
and fixing the range of a vessel two or
three miles away is mystery to most
people, but ii is matter easily ex-
planned and understood. Until the ar
rival of Lieutenant Fiske's invention
the method of fixing the range of a
target was to fire several trial shots at
it, usually from a gun. The elevation
of the gun at each shot was noted and
the destination of the shot located by
telescopes Calculations were then
made which fixed the range for the
larger gun. This method not only
consumed considerable time. but it
was very expensive. as the cost of

FINDTNG Till RANGE OF Tf7E Biz GUNS

Washington, July 1.-THE war de-
partment is considerably interested in
the invention of a new range indicator,
Just completed by an Australian,
which, if it proves upon practical
test by the army and navy officials to
work as effectively as is promised, will
Immediately be introduced on all the

ments of the country.
The range indicator now employed
by the government is the invention Of
Lieutenant Fiske of the navy and it
has been in use since July, 1898, when
1t was first tried on the San Francisco.

Ponds upon getting in the first shot
than in any other kind of fighting.
Upon the speed of the range finder the
success of the first shot largely de-
ponds, and the delay of a few seconds
might settle the fate of the battle.
The new invention is believed to be
much quicker in its work than the
Fiske system, as in the latter the po-
sition of the enemy is communicated
by signalling. which, in addition to be-
ing much slower is also open to error
as the gunner has to translate the sig
mails and then adjust his. gun for the
range.
Moreover, in the brief time elapsing
between the signalling and the aiming
of the gun the position of the enemy
might change sufficiently to escape the
projectile. but with the new system
the exact position of the vessel would
be apparent TO the gunner up to the
very instant of the discharge.

tried became ullcanonica1 and utterly
irregular ON the retirement from 1t or
DR.. Henry Niles Pierce, now Bishop OF
Arkansas, and that the sentence OF sus-
pension which was grounded upon the
verdict of that court was canoncally
null and void. 1t is morally certain
that if DR.. Pierce had continued to be
member of that court, no sentence OF
suspension would have been pro-
nounced, or at least that Dr. Pierce
would have protested to the last

rious that the conditions of restoration
incorporated with the sentence were
needlessly and cruelty harsh, as if their

which would justify his deposition
