SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH II, 1900


The chief distinction between the
Gauser and the Lee-Enfield is this
that while the Lee-Enfield has maga-
zine which is inserted underneath the
body through the trigger guard and Sc
cured by a catch and is provided with
what is called "cut OFF, to prevent
the cartridges from rising, so that 1t
can be used as a simple breechloader
for single firing until the magazine,
which contains ten cartridges. is order
ed to be used, the Mauser has maya
zine which, though not absolutely tx
ed is only intended to be taken off for
cleaning. 1t does not need "cut or
to use as a single loader.
The magazine contains five car
tridges, but whereas the cartridges
for the Lee Enfield have, when the
magazine is charged. to be each put III
separately, the magazine or the Maui
ser is filed at once by placing against
the face of the magazine a set or nve
cartridges held in clip which rails on
when the cartridges have been inserted
In the magazine
Thus If each wear IN were at the be-
ginning of fight empty. the Mauser
would permit of more rapid fire De
cause II could be loaded five cartridges
at n time. while the Lee-Enfield would
take. cartridge by cartridge, as long to
load as a single breechloader. On the
other hand, the times when a very
rapid discharge Of fire Is desirable are
not numerous, and for these the Lee
Enfield has ten cartridges ready
against the Mauser's five.-Nineteenth
Century.

QUESTION ANSM Erred.

Yes, August Flower sill has the
largest sale of any medicine ia the civil
lied world Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, aud they
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Proetration or Heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and op fermentation OF undi-
gested food, regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and organic
action OF the system, and that 10 oil
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You

when we have President who

THE economic policies OF the Repub-

SLOW WORK ON
THE MINT BUILDING

Washington. ID. c.. Oct 1S.-For sew
eral months the supervising architect
has been preparing detailed plans for
the interior finish Of the Denver mint,
but has now encountered nm obstacle
which threatens to cause a serious de-
lay. Most of the details for decorations,
the marble lobby and the finer work
are completed. but the interior finish
in the basement and first door are held
up until the director Of the mint de
cides upon what machinery win be
placed In the building and what allow
ance will have 10 be made for boilers,
engines. etc.
The director OF the mint IL now out
OF Washington and none OF his assist
ants have the authority or the inclina-
ton to take up the matter and decide
the question. even though an adequate
appropriation was made at the last
session OF Congress, with view to
fastening the completion OF the mint.
This machinery is to be supplied by
contract, on lines laid down by the d.
rector Of the mint. but the director has
been of the opinion that there is no i'm
mediate necessity for issuing advertise
mcnts for bids. until the building Is
nearer completion. On the other hand,
the architects office. even with COM
pleted plans. for the interior, cannot let
the contract until the present cOntrac-
tor finishes the exterior work and roof.
II the two bureaus Of the Treasury
Department harmonixe their differ
ences. the interior plans can be COM
pieted within . month and will be
ready before the roof has been placed
on the building.

Mount st. Elias. which until the re-

highest peak In the country. 1t now
proves to be nearly 4 half-mile lower
than Mount Mckinley, hoary old
giant that towers more than twenty
thousand four hundred feet. Here is
