WOUNDS FROM "JAPs" BULLETS.
MiIdest Kind of Missiles Ever Known
in Modern Warfare.

An interesting account is given by
the st. Petersburg correspondent CT
the Daily Telegraph of remarkable re-
coveries of Russian soldiers from
wounds made by what they term Jap
anese toy bullets.
These bullets, say Russian surgeons,
are, if not perfectly harmless, at least
the next best thing TO that, forming
tie mildest kind of missile that has
ever yet been fired from a rifle.
One of the consequences is that a
number of wounds, which formerly
were mortal, are now healed and for
gotten in few days.
up till now a bullet in the head
remarked a Russian physician who is
collecting data on the surgical aspect
OF the present war. which pierced
the brain was certain to cause death.
But here we have case in which a
missile actually went through the me
dulla oblongata, yet the man who re-
ceived the wound and cracked skull
was smiling and complaining of a
slight headache only on wet days.
"All the men in the hospital have
tiny wounds, smaller than a three
penny bit, mere red stain, nothing
more"
A medical investigator, inquiring
from Russian officers as to the charac-
ter of the Japanese bullet, was tod:
Compared with ours, the japanese
bullet is tiny, but its velocity is cor
s:derably greater. Our magazine rifle
takes bullet of three lines and inn
parts to it an initial velocity of 600
meters. whereas the japanese rifles
have 2.5 line bullet, with an initial
velocity OF 725 meters. The Japanese
bullet only penetrates the tissue, but
does not telr il.

the muscles of the peritoneum, which

THE ADVANTAGES on
THE CITY on MITCHELL

The building of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul railroad to the
James river placed Mitchell on the
map in 1880, and the location of the
United States landoffice few months
later carried the embryo city's name
almost to the four corners of the earth
that year marking the beginning Of
the great rush for the fertile govern
ment lands in South Dakota. The
building of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul roundhouse in 1884, making
Mitchell the divisional point for three
railroad divisions, gave fresh impetus
to the boom days Of the early eighties
An advantage and prestige which has
never left the metropolis of the lower
"Jim' valley.
But while Mitchell has been on the
map for a score or more Of years, the
city, as it stands today, is really the
product of the last ten years. The
whirligig of time has brought to the
front the location of the future cities
of South Dakota. In that time Mich
ell has jumped from ninth place among
the ten principal cities of the state to
third in population and wealth east of
the Missouri. The growth of the city
from 1890 to 1900 was 81 per cent-a
