CHANGES IN THE ARMY RIFLE

A little while ago We thought we had the finest army rifle in the world, with the possible exception of the Spanish Mauser. It had enormous range and necessarily flat trajectory and great powers of penetration. It was light and easily manipulated. The mechan- ism of it was comparatively simple. But We decided quite recently to aban- don that rifle in favor of new in- vention which has longer range, flat ter trajectory. greater penetration and advantages in weight gained by cut ting down the barrel. The new gun, which is the product of some genius or ecniuses in the ordnance department, is so short and light that man of ordinary strength can easily swing it as a club if he runs short of ammuni- tiOn and is in too close quarters to use the bayonet, which. by the way, is to remain part of the soldiers equipment in spite of the condemnation lavished upon it by experts. The caliber of this new rifle is practically the same as that of the weapon it is designed to supplant. which suggests that the in- creased destructiveness of modern small arms, due to the extensive range
  ing systems, is more than counterbal- anced by the sacrifice of shocking pow CT through the substitution of small bullets for large ones. A man is killed as readily when shot through a vital part by a pellet no bigger in circum- ference than a small lead pencil as he is when hit by heavier missile from a Springfield or Marlin; but the re- de. Nf ( bot oh, that the number of disabling" wounds inflicted by the lighter bullets is far less in proportion to the amount of lead fired than was the case in the days of larger calibered rifles.
 This is not an argument for the abandonment of conditions that have made war more humane by decreasing the measure of human suffering en- tailed by it. It is merely a statement of facts which are now being seriously considered abroad, and especially in England in respect to the proposed modification of rifles. or at least of ammunition. used in waging of war fare against those who will not observe the rules of civilized combat. To the use of smaller caliber guns and hard nosed bullets is attributed by many the disaster that overlook Colonel Plunketts command in Somaliland. l where even the straightest shooting failed to check the rush upon the l doomed square. because the stopping power of the bullets was not sufficient to put out of action more than small | proportion Of those who were hit else where than in vital spots. The savage must be fought upon a different basis than the enemy who is civilized. A force deprived of ammunition, and ! therefore, unable to continue fighting

Michigan College of Mines, which shows a large deposit of good mineral. Within a gunshot. that is, the range of modern 12-inch rife, there are the deepest shafts in the world and the most powerful machinery ever employ ed in mining.
 The aggregate horse power of the en- zines employed by these mines alone is greater than the total horse power of all the engines used in operating the gold and silver mines of the United States. and more than double that of all the engines at the Chicago fair. The College of Mines has investigated these statements and found them true. The citizens of Houghton do not themselves own the Calumet and Hecla. but it is easy to see that they live in an atmos- phere of mineral wealth.
 The electric cars of Houghton are of the snow-fighting species. but the rail- way mana cement has rigid rules which prevent the passengers from alighting upon the car roofs from the neighbor- ing snowdrifts.
 But perhaps the greatest wonder in Houghton is the climate. The deepest copper mines are on a peninsula which points spire-like toward the North Pole.
 Owing to the dry air the long winters are not uncomfortable still. if a Houghton man is looking for 20 degrees below zero he has no difficulty in find ing it. Yet in the dead of winter he can drop a mile down a shaft and imagine himself in close proximity to Prescott, Ariz.
 At the low levels of the copper mines pajamas are considered full dress, and yet big little Houghton does not use ice machines to prepare for a hockey game in its Graeco-Anerican Amphi> drome.

WONDERS OF A COPPER TOWN.
The Greatness of Houshton. Hich.,
 Expressed in Poem.

The biggest little town in the country according to the latest returns is Houghton, Mich, the gateway to the Lake Superior copper region.
 Counting men, women and children there are $500 souls in Houghton, and vet in eighteen days its citizens built at a cost of $40.000 a skating rink that would hold just $500 people-no more no less-and on the occasion of a hoe key game the box office receipts show ed there were just $500 people in at tendance.
 New York, with all it's enterprise, has not yet built a place of amusement which would hold 3,437.202 people. Chi cago with all its ambition has not at tempted to gather 1,69S,575 people under one roof, nor has Philadelphia with all its wealth ever erected a theatre cost ing SHAH, 7S4.5S demanding contribu- ton of S1l14 from each inhabitant.
 But Houghton is not merely great it is artistic Its great building achieve ment bears a name borrowed rom Greece. and concerning this amphl- drome poems have already been writ ten. The temper of the men Of Hough- ton is shown by these lines:
 Catch fieeting pleasures on the ny
 The good die young; we soon may die.
 Till then let joy and pain suffice,
 Hereafter we may cut no ice.
 But big little Houghton has not stop ped at this exploit. for it boasts daily paper which has a circulation of one and a half copies for each man, woman and child within the corporation limits, and it is a good 5-cent paper, too. The principal barroom would do credit to St. Louis, its proprietor having spent sl2,OOO in plate glass mirrors, mahog- any sidebCards and mural decorations while the best hotel in the town, which is still a town of $500 population. cost over S150.00 and looks the part.

YE AMBITIOUS MONKEYS.

Once uponne tyme a Female Mon- key dwelt high uppe in ye toppe of a banyan tree. says Leslie's Weekly.
 Now she was not so stunningly beau tifulle, neither would she cut much ice in a sculptor's exhibition. Butte once uponne a tyme she hadde hadde an ancestor; alsoe she was possessed of much dough whych her great grand father hadde stolen from a churche fund
 But the latter fact was always kept in a goode, darke place; for itte is notte good forme to tell ye world how you gotte your wealth.
 Neither is it seemly to demand proof whcnne ye genealogical tree is brought out for inspection.
 For verify, million dollars can cover many a dark past.
 And soc long as ye dollar clicketh inne ye drawing room, ye skeleton may dance in ye closet and ye world smil- eth and sayeth indulgently Listen to ye deare thynge!"
 For oi truth, in thys world ye dol lar talketh whenne ale other tongues be stille.
 Yea, verify, and though ye world willie smile at an emptie hedde itte will notte stand for an emptie pocket.
 Now itte came to pass thatte ye Fe- male Monkey waxed into fulle maiden hood.
 NOW" quoth she. 'itte is both meet and seemly thatte I take unto myself a husband"
 & itte was soc thatte many of her own race came and knelt before her. nd Alsoe their hearts were clean and their eyes were bright. & they besought ye Female Monkey for her hande Be holdl" they sedde "We willie be goode to thee! We are thine own country mem"
 But ye Female Monk looked uponne them with ye glassy eye. Yea, by Hec- tor and Durn, she sneered at their honest protestations & bade them go to. For there was no gold inne their pockets and no crests uponne their stationery.
 Ye whych was contemptible of themme 6 notte to be endured by an aristocratic Female Monkey whose greate-greate grandfather's uncle's brother in-law hadde scene ye battle of Agincourt from ye toppe of talle tree fortie miles away.
