views and promoting practical char

are successful, with her whole for

A NEW ARMY RIFLE.
Improved Weapon to Displace the
Krag-J orgensen Now in Use.
VIII Carry an Increased Powdes
Charge and the Cartridge Mag
azine VIII BE Incased i'm
the stock of New Gun.

After several years. work the ord
nance department of the army has
designed new rifle to take the place
Of the improved Krag-Jorgensen now
in the service. In the opinion Of the
ordnance officers this new rifle is o
wonderful improvement in small
arms. Secretary Root has approved
Gen. Crozier's recommendations that
5000 rifles of the new pattern be
made as soon as possible and distrib-
uted to the army.
1t may be several months, however
before the troops receive any of the
rifles, as the changes will necessitate
alterations in tho machinery at the
government arsenals where small
arms are manufactured.
The new rife will have velocity
of 1900 feet a second and will carry
an increased powder charge. The only
change in the cartridge will be the
cutting away of the rim at the base
and substituting a groove in the car
fridge case. The clumsy-looking mag
azine on the present Krag will be in.
cased in the stock of the new gun.
The cartridges will be carried IN
clips of five each, and slight down
ward pressure of the thumb will
force al five cartridges into the mag
azine at once.
Another feature of the new rife
will be the absence Of the sword bay.
onet. In Gen. Crozier's opinion the
sword bayonet is seldom used and
does not compensate for the addi
tional weight to be carried by the
soldier. The new rifle will have a
stiffened rod bayonet.

Her Career on the Stage.
worked Hard and Faithfully for
Years Before Obtaining RecoG-

Iy, But slowly.

Miss Julia Marlowe, in an interest
ing article in the Philharmonic maya
zine, relates the details Of the long
struggle which led 10 her recognition.
After reading her story ii is not diff
ficult to understand why she writes:
81 feel / could not go through il again"
Born in England, her parents came
to this country when she was lit
tie girl, and chose Kansas, not alto
gether fortunately for themselves, for
their abode. But the need which was
the chief reason for the commence
ment Of the stage career Of their
daughter cannot now be viewed other
than as happy circumstance. Those
we're the days of the juvenile opera
troupes, and of one of them the child
became member. Her pretty talent
attracted the attention of the man
ageress of the company, and to that
woman, whom Miss Marlowe does not
name, she gives the credit for her
after rigorous training.
The manageress adopted the girl,
who then was 10 years old, and took
her to New York to begin her actual
stage education. For three years it
lasted, with intermissions only of two
weeks each summer and holidays on
the Fourth of July, Christmas and New
Years day.
''My mornings" Miss Marlowe
writes, were devoted to reading aloud
and to going over plays with my in
structress. Whole dramas were acted

The strife for recognition itself came
after the three years of study were
over. The 16-year-old girl was deter
mined upon an Independent career,
and to every one of New York's chief
managers she went resolutely asking
not for a place in their company, but
for their sponsorship. In telling the
experience she gives no names but

two others offered her a position in
their stock companies. One laughed
at her pretensions, and him she hated.
Not discouraged by defeat and more
than ever resolved TO accept the DOM
ination of no manager. she at last de-
termined to give a special perform
ance on her own account. In October,
1887 she and her instructress raised
sufficient money to enable her to APP
pear as Parthenia at an experimental
matinee at the Bijou theater The
fruit of her daring was honest critical
praise and the attention of persons
interested in theatrical art and in
theatrical business. From that time
on she won her way, not rapidly, but
surely. Work, she says in conclusion,
has been the only magic in her achieve
ments.
