wICKED-LOOKING WEAPON.
Description of the Mauser Pistol
That Is to Be Used by United
States Cavalrymen.

1.-THE new Mauser pistol, with which
our cavalry is about to be armed, is a
horrible looking piece of machinery"
said an esthetic sportsman the other day.
1T doesn't resemble a firearm at all.
but looks like some strange scientific
instrument. such as one might see in
a laboratory. Imagine a cigar box,
japanned black. with a handle at one
end and a short tube at the other. and
there you have it. The box contains
the mechanism and the tube spouts
bullets. The cavalryman OF the past
was a dsshing figure. He wore a steel
cuirass and helmet with nodding
plumes. and while he carried brace OF
pistols in his holsters. his real weapon
was his trusty saber. Do you remem-
Der the splendid fellows who are gallop-
ing past Napoleon in Meissonier's 1902
Since then science has gradually sucked
all the poetry out of war and the Mauser
pistol is the last work of brutal utili-
tarianism. The cavalryman of the
future will carry nothing but a small
black walnut box. and will closely re-
semble a surgeon going out to operate
for appendicitis. When he gets 10 the
right spot. designated by the engineer
