Notwithstanding" a recent book by
Walter Winans, the noted revolver shot
of Great Britain, which were specially
penned for a small but dangerous class
of people.
Mr.. Winans once left q revolver lying
on Il table in his tent at Bisley during
IL competition. Some visitors dropped
in, one by one, to lunch. First came an
elderly lady. She sat down near the
table, and her eye Immediately fell OH
the revolver. She snatched it up with
II laugh, and pointing it at Mr.. Winans,
said:

speaking as peremptorily as a host
may. The lady obeyed, and Mr.. WI
nans explained to her how injudicious
it was to point Il revolver at n one,
how it might have been loaded, and SO
on.
While he was speaking in came a
clergyman. He sat down and began
talking pleasantly. All ut once his eve
caught the revolver. Selling it and
roaring with laughter, lie pointed it at
MI. Minans, saying:
Now I'll shoot you!'
81 locked up that revolver!w is Mr..
Winans' grim comment. And he would
have been glad, we may be sure, to
have made the same disposal, Temporal
rily at least, of his silly guests. Had
the jocularity of the lady or the clergy
man resulted fatally, as similar con-
duct has often done, the plea at the
coroner's inquest would have been the
old, weak one: NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

The need for more railroad cars IS crit

taxed steam roads. In no active industry
does this condition hamper so much as III
the iron trade. When the number OF

of 1901 than they We're at the beginning,

The < Horse"

n lover OF horses recently noticed q
custom in France which he thinks
ought to be adopted in this country. On
every street in France which has q
steep grade there is stationed at a
point where the rise begins an extra
horse" The law compels draymen and
others to make S of this horse until
the summit of the hill is reached, and
there is u heavy fine for refusing to
hire the extra horse at a small fixed
rate. Placards by the roadside indicate
the point where the extra horse should
be taken on, and also where he may be
dispensed with.

seeking investment that the real estate
market surely will absorb a goodly por.
ton Of it. There are no indications that
building activity will decrease during the

"skyscrapers' have been adopted or are
being discussed seriously. The long sus-
pension of building operations prior to

will not be overdone for some time to
come. Therefore the men in the building

To speak from n theoretlc standpoint,
