THE NEW ARMY RIFLE. TW
1t Is Practically Certain to BE the
Best in the World.

Best In the World.
The new United States army rife
is a remarkable evolution in small
arms since the old Springfield single
loader had its day. Practically twelve
years cover the period of the develop
ment, although the experience of the
Spanish and Philippine wars has nat
urally made the progress more rapid
since 1898 than before that time.
When the Krag was made the basis OF
the army magazine rife there was
more or less criticism, but it was
poorly conceived. The Ordinance de-
partment has never regarded any
model as necessarily a hnality, but has
ever been bent on Improvements.
Consequently notifications have been
numerous and steady, and there is no
reason why, with this constant appli.
cation of experience and inventive ge-
MUS the United States service maya
zine rife should not be equal to any
in the world.-Springfeld (Mass.) Re-

LAWYER MADE AN APOLOGY.

of the Court.
Some years ago there was an old
Judge on the bench in Berks county,
Pa, whose decisions, in consequence
Of numerous reversals did not always
command universal respect. One day,
IN case In which he was sitting, one
of the lawyers lost patience at his in
ability to see things in a certain light,
and In the heat of the moment re-
marked that the intellect Of the court
was so dark flash Of lightning could
not penetrate it. For this contempt
the judge showed a disposition to be
very severe with the offender, and it
was only after much persuasion by
friends Of the latter that he yielded
and decided to accept public apo}-
ogy. The following day the lawyer,
accordingly, appeared before his honor
and made amends by saying, 81 re-
greet very much that said the intel

Bulk for Bulk, the Former Are the
Stronger.
Few people know that a man, bulk
for bulk, is stronger than an OK, but
1t appears that such is the case. The
matter was tested not long since at a
fair In America, one of the attractions
of which was a contest of yoke Of
oxen against an equal weight of men.
A drag was loaded with granite blocks,
weighing in the aggregate 1853
pounds. The yoke of oxen that made
the trial weighed 1920 pounds, and
twenty men, allowing $50 pounds to
the man, were set against them. Ae
men took hold Of the drag first, and
easily walked off with it, covering a
distance of IS feet in the space OF two
minutes. The oxen at their trial moved
only eighty-h Ave feet in the same length
Of time and the men were accordingly

Wrona Foot Out Of Bed.

About half the world puts the wrong
foot out of bed in the morning. But
which is the wrong foot? 1t is a
superstition as old as the hills that
if the left foot touches the floor first
you will have bad luck that day.
Probably many men avoid this by
sleeping on the right side of the bed,
so that in rising the right foot natur-
ally comes first in contact with the
floor. 1t is said to be fact that most
people lie on their right side because
OF the prevalent notion that the heart
has freer action.-New York Press

of the Scientific American, who says:
"The snake hides himself in the tall

the phoebe and kingbird, are attract

Bank of England and st. Paul's. 1t
is an enormous oak and is said to be
100 years old. 1t is protected by a
clause in the deed of the property
which forbids destruction of tree or
branches. Architects were compelled
to plan a rather peculiar building to
avoid the branches. There it stands

streets in London, occupying ground
of enormous value-and positively

The widow of a large estate owner
in Germany, who recently married a
count of small means, has obtained a
separation from her second husband
on exceedingly novel grounds. After
the marriage the bride discovered
that her husband wore a wig and re-
-ceived such a shock at the sight of
his bald head that she took violent
antipathy to him, and commenced
proceedings against him. Her suit
was successful, and she obtained a
separation after three weeks mar.
riage. The grounds upon which the
decision was based we're that if she
had known of the wig she would
never have married the count.
