to sea in Dutch and English vessels to

He was not only great. but he pre-

A certain innate unsuspected power Of

There should also be an elementary

millinery bills, and all the other va

man is subject. Then, at least, a fell

Up against in matrimony.
Husbands would also have it i'm

useful in courtship, II is necessity OF

bic, but true, that a woman's idea of a
perfect husband is q man who viii tell

NEW PISTOL a WONDER.
The ParabeIlum Automatic Revolver
Fires lie Shots a Minute.
IChic1gO TTibuno0

tCMC1gU IflDuue.l
The Parabellum automatic pistol or
what is called in Berlin the "Borchardt-
Luger's system, has reached Chicago.
Pop" Hirth of Spalding's has been ex-
hibiting the new weapon to local shoot
ers and expects soon to give a test Of it
in connection with the Colt. Mauser and
other holster guns.
The pistol is a remarkable weapon in
every particular-frOm grip to barrel. 1t
belongs TO the class Of recoH firearms,
with movable barrel and positive lock-
while the projectile is forced through the
barrel Il has been adopted by the Swiss
government as an ordnance pistol, and
General Miles is making tests of it now
with a view TO recommending its adoption
into the United States army.
I'm a test Of the pigtOl made at the
Springfield armOry lie shots were fired in
one minute. This far exceeds the maxi
mum capacity of other rapid-fire guns
The stock Of the pistol is almost straight
and under the barrel not at the end. The
grip provided is exceedingly fine and
there is said TO ue no recoi. Eight shots
may be fired before relOadng. The re-
loading apparatus is in the butt. which
carries a. magazine, The magazine is so
light that a number may be carried in
the pocket and when one is emptied an
other be simply slipped into place. 4
backward push on the breech lock cocks
the weapon for the first shot and there
after no recOciSing Is necessary until the
magazine is emptied and a fresh one in
place. The recoi with each shot elects
empty shells and puts a fresh cartridge
in place, but in no wise affects the ac-
curacy Of aim.
The caliber is 81. but the destructive
power Of the bullet, su1Olleless powder be-
ing used, is said 10 surpass that or any
other pistol bullet manufactured. The
pistol weighs but one pound and thirteen
ounces. The maximum range with an
angle Of elevation of about p degrees is
1857 yards, or more than one mile. IN
the metallic work OF the gun not a screw
is used. ID appears to be the most rapid
