The new automatic Luger pistol,
1000 of which have been bought in
Germany for the American army, is
one of the most remarkab BILE weapons
ever invented and is said to be capa-
bic of discharging 116 bullets in a
minute. The weapon was invented
by George Luger, former officer in
the Austrian army, and is made by the
same people who make the Mauser
rifle. With bullets coming toward
him at such rate an enemy would be
kept rather busy doing the dodge act.

Statistics show that commercial re-
1ations between Spain and the United
States have been fully restored, and
indications are that exports to that
country in the fiscal year 1901 will be
greater, with possibly one exception,
than in any preceding year. Commerce
is the "tie that binds'' in these latter
days. If Spain did not need our prod
ucts and also need to sell us some of
hers the people of the country would
doubtless set back in lofty dignity
and positively enjoy hating us. AS
it is, they put their pride in their pock-
cts and "saw wood"

women have included all sorts of ideas,

NarcOni Says They VIII Be Sent fol
Cent u Word,

Replying to congratulations at a banquet
rendered him by General Boyle of New
foundland, at st. Johns, last night, Signor
Marconi said. regarding his system Of
wireless telegraphy:
IF my system of wireless telegraphy
can be commercially established between
different parts of the earth, the possibility
of which L may state, have not the
slightest doubt, it would bring about an
enormous cheapening of the methods of
communication at present existing. The
system of submarine cables of today fulfills
the demands of communication to great
extent. But the great cost of the cables
themselves and their heavy working ex-
penses cause the existing method to be be-
yond the reach Of majority of the people
inhabiting the various countries of the
world. But could this new method be ap-
Piled, / believe the cost of what we now
call cabling to England might be reduced
at least twenty-fold. The present rates are
twenty-five cents word. do not see why,
eventually, with the wireless system this
cost could not be reduced to one cent a
word or less"

National Defense School.
Mention has been made above OF the
probable location Of college and national
defense school on the reservation. While
the board has not been called upon to ex-
press its views as to the buildings needed
for such an institution. or to submit an
estimate of cost, it is not thought improper
to say that, in the opinion of the board,
there should be erected single fireproof
building, of fine appearance. laboratory,
study, map and lecture rooms. together
with all other rooms needed for admins
trauon and instruction purposes. 1t is be-
lieved that such a building can be provided
at a cost of about $4,000. Beyond this
VIII De needed certain sets of quarters for
the commandant of the War College and
the officers constituting his military and
academic staff. The board believes that
the student officers. the number of which
1t has no means of estimating. should be
allowed Communication of quarters and
lodged outside the reservation. 1t is esti-
mated that all the buildings necessary for
the War College can be erected for not to
exceed 100000. 1t is thought that there is
no room on this reservation for any or
ganizations other than the War College,
the engineer school and engineer post.

approximate. but are based upon the best
information obtainabie in the limited time
available for submitting this report To

sions Of the buildings required, the prep

which will take considerable time"
