a regiment of sharpshooters armed with
these pistols, for the number of shots
fired would exceed immeasurably those
fired by opponents using other weapons,
Two hundred shots a minute could be
fired by an expert; 10000 shots a minute
by company of 100 men, and 100000
shots a minute by a regiment of ten
companies. provided the ammunition
was on hand.
Such fire is almost inconceivable and
it is only by comparison that we can
understand it. 1t is equal to the fire of
200 gatling guns. of sixteen regiments
armed with Springfields, of eight regi-
ments armed with Krag-Jorgensens, of
200 regiments of the Civil war era.
While a guardsman was reloading an
enemy with a Borchardt could put be-
tween fifteen and twenty shots into him.

Occupants of such a delightful home are
almost certain to be entertainers. and they
will therefore find satisfaction in the slid

with the dining room. and by which they
can be thrown together when social func-
tons are of such character as to suggest
ample room and open hospitality: and this
is enhanced by the generous dimensions
given the various apartments.
One feature deserving special attention

But one floor is shown in the plan, be-
cause in the cost estimates no account
has been taken of the attic other than for
floor, which permits its use as one room
or for purposes of storage, a feature ap-
preciated by older housekeepers, but apt
to be overlooked by the young matron
Three more rooms in the attic would add
but little more than $500 to the cost of the
house, unless an additional bathroom is
to be provided. which would add perhaps
another 800 to the estimates.

These exhibitions brought home to

But if it is desired to fire single shots

Every one who has handled a revolver
knows how difficult it is to keep the

this defect. and. like the old gunmakers

vellous rapidity of fire is another tre-

with all modern small-calibre rifles is
that one shot from them will not dis

shock insufficient. And it is not within
human power to put two or three shots
in exactly the same place. A rifle fixed
