NEW FRENCH MILITARY RlFLE.
Great European Powers Have Poorer
Weapons than Holland.

Great European Powers Have Poorer
Weapons than Holland.
The national small arms factories
nave received orders to be ready at a
moments notice to begin the manufac-
turing of rifles Of a new model, says
the London Morning Post. Two new
weapons have been tested by the chief
officers of the Normal Firing School
and have been found superior to the
modified Lebel rifle now in use. Their
ballistic qualities are, 1t appears,
marvellous. The publication of this
item of intelligence is probably due to
the announcement that the German in
fantry is to be rearmed with a new rifle
of six millimeters caliber, far and
away superior to the present weapon
of 10 millimeters. 1t is not, however,
believed in Paris that this change is
likely to be made in the immediate
future, as the cost would be enormous,
but it is thought to be as we'll to show
hat attention is being paid to eff
cient armament on this side Of the
Rhine as we'll as on the other. When
Germany begins manufacturing SO will
France.
The present French rife is consid-
cred to be slightly superior to the pres
ent German one. The Lebel weighs
4 k~ilogrammes 100 grammes and
throws a 15-gramme projectile 5000
meters with an initial velocity of 63s
meters per second. The cartridge con-
tains 2.75 grammes of powder, the
smoke from which is invisible at zoe
yards. The trajectory is nearly
straight for the first $50 yards. The
German weapon is of Slightly smaller
caifber (7.3 millimeters instead of S
millimeters). The rifing of the bar
rel is not deep enough, which dimin-
ishes the precision and force of pene-
tration. The useful range is not great
err than that of the Lebel and the speed
is only $50 meters per second.
Curiously enough it is not the great
European powers which possess the
best rifles, but Holland, Denmark ant
Norway. The two latter use the Krag.
Jorgensen, which is a very superior
weapon, though some authorities con.
slider the caliber, SIS millimeters, toC
small. The projectile only weighs II
grammes and is nickel plated. The
Dutch weapon is a Mannlicher of grear
precision and long range. The militia
velocity of it's bullet is the highest We
reached, being TAO meters per second.

Should Abandon BruSl

n new Whistler anecdote was told
recently by Actor Frank Harris.
'Ah." said Harris TO Whistler, 81
was talking to that great genius, Dc
gas, about you, Mr.. Whistler. He re-
marked to me, Helm Whistlaire! He
has talent!
Talent! | exclaimed, how can you
talk of the great artist of the day in
that way? You should remember that
not only is he an Incompatible etcher,
u marvellous draughtsman and a
prince among painters, but he is at the
same time the wittiest conversational
list, the most brilliant epigramatist and
the best company alive"
"'Well," if he is all that replied De-
gas, with a shrug, what it is that he
does not paint with his tOngue""

If love is weakness it manages to

If we had no troubles but real ones

If there is no water on the moon it
