terly supersede the light field pieces
now in use. Careful experiments have
shown that a much heavier charge
may be thrown for a much greater dis
lance with entire safety, and an eight
inch gun will shortly be constructed,
built to throw 100 pounds of explosive
for Il distance of three and a half miles.
The Zalinski gun has thrown 80
pounds of dynamite three and three

for mile and a half. There seems
nothing to prevent the Sims-Dudley
gun from duplicating these feats. so

for more than three miles equal in
destructive effect to a tom, 600 pounds
of black powder
At the present time a 6OO-pound
shell, thrown not more than twice the
distance, ruins the finest battery gun
in the course of a hundred shots or so.
In other words, save for long distance

through % inches of solid steel.
The Brown gun is hardly less re-
markable in its tremendous power than
in its method of construction. 1t is
made up of a core of cold drawn
beveled steel billets. These are as
sembled vertically very much in the

slaves of a barrel, and are temporarily
held together by clamps. After the
breech and muzzle nuts have been
shrunk on, this core is wound with fine
steel wire IS miles in length, the wind

devised for the purpose. The gun is
then bored out, heated internally and
shrunk on a thin steel lining; after
wards the trunion jacket is shrunk
over the outside in the same way.

sents the finest piece of construction

ments of soldiers would be necessary to
clear the streets with one of these
death dealers rushing through the city
at 40 miles an hour and dealing out
the most persuasive of argument at the
rate of several hundred thrilling eli
makes per minute. Several govern
mentS are said to be negotiating with
the inventor for the construction of a
quantity of these machines, and there
seems little doubt that they Will come
quickly into use.
If such be the record of practically a
single year in the advance of instru-
ments for honorable murder, a way
farer or a fool may guess the future
of war. With slaughtering machines so
terrible in their effects that no man
will be fool enough to think of standing
up in front of them to be riddled like
paper targets or blown into so much
bloody, quivering pulp, the day seems
very near when the quarrelsome, bully

machinery, the guns at once set firing
continue in action until their charge of
ammunition is exhausted, so that even
supposing the operator to be killed or
disabled the engines will continue
running and to deal out destruction.
The shields surrounding the autocar
are arranged slantwise. so that an or
binary bullet from a rife would simply
glance, and when the machines are
in motion it is calculated that it will
be nothing less than pure accident if
they are hit with a shell. 1t will thus
be seen that the Pennington automo-
bile battery obviates the chief difficult
ties with rapid firing guns which have
hitherto been devised. namely, that it
is not possible to fire them in motion
or at varied speeds, the entire charge
sometimes being lost owing to this
single fact.
Moreover, under such perfect control
is the machine that it can make a
charge or beat retreat with tremend-
Gus rapidity, making it especially valu-
able for sudden descent upon de-
tached bodies of troops.

But while our inventors have been

equally astonishing work in the de-

Tabor's Mine Sold at Auction.

New York Herald: Phoenix, Ariz.-
The Vulture mine, that has produced
more than $1OOOO,OOO in gold, was sold
last week under a trust deed given as
security for a loan of $4,000. Former
Senator Tabor, the owner of the mine,
was unable to redeem it.
For years Tabor was regarded as the
richest man in Colorado.
Tabors financial reverses are due to
the failure of mines that used to pay
big dividends. There was time when
his wealth was estimated at SIS, 000, 900
or $20,000000. He has several millions
of property in sight today, but it is
