according to a statement made the

the evolution of plant life scientists
both at Chicago and Harvard found \
gap which could be explained only by
the existence of plant as yet undis-

probability of finding such plant on
Margarita island, which never has been

CAUSES A PROTEST.
Pistol Makers in America Aroused
Over German Order.
Declare They Have Weapon Equal 60
Foreign Ffrearm-Wmnt Merits of
Two Pistols Tested-What Is
Claimed for German Pistol.

The decision of the war department.
to purchase 900 automatic pistols of
German manufacture has aroused q
spirited protest from the American
makers of a similar type of weapon,
One company, whose pistol was recon-
mended by army ordnance officers, has
written the secretary of war that 1T
has a pistol which is equal to the for
eign weapon and asks that the device
be submitted to a test in competition
with the German pistol. The practical
adoption of the foreign pistol is re-
suit of row between the ordnance of
ficers and members of the board of ord
nance and fertilization. The former
favor the American pistol and the lat
ter, headed by Gen. Miles, favor the
German pistol
The latter, it is claimed, is capable Of
discharging 116 bullets a minute at a
I high initial velocity, but the makers of
the American pistol claim for it equal
or superior points of merit. The Ger
man weapon is named for, its inventor,
George Luger, former officer in the
Austrian army, and is made by >le Ger
man arms and ammunition factory
and the Fabrique Rationale of Military
Arms in Belgium. This concern has
manufactured about 100000 Mauser
rifles for European nations, and has
also brought out several types of auto
matte pistols.
H. Tauscher4a representative of the
company, said that the new pistol was
the result of ten years experiment.
I'VE brought out the Borchardt, the
Mauser, the Mannlicher and the Berg
MANN" said Mr.. Tauscher. "AIl gov

useless after the cartridges in the cyl

1896. the Borchardt. which employed

magazine. was deemed superior. Thi
is the system that has shown value il
the Maxim gun and is now used in man
arms. The Swiss ordnance officer
asked for smaller arm than the Boz

or of the Mannlicher rife, set to wor
to reconstruct the link system. Swift

Mrs. John Ayllng and Mrs. Will
H. Keifer, two estimable ladies re.
siding few miles east of here had
a frightful experience while driving
to the city yesterday afternoon.
The horse Is a spirited animal and
the ladies did not realize until too
late that 1t had started to run away.
They were passing team coming
down the Cemetery hill and shortly
afterward the buggy overturned
and the ladies were thrown out
after which the horse ran wildly
and completely demolished a fine
new top buggy. At the foot of the
hill one of the electric railway men
caught the animal which was found
to be injured but little. Mrs. Ay-
ling was not hurt at all and Mrs.
Keller escaped with few bruises,
which was a fortunate termination
of so serious q runaway.
