Later Mr., Murphy said he had nothing

New Army Bullet

Earthworks and trees will be Slight protection to soldiery ar- rayed against the United States army when the infantry is equipped with the new bullet which has been undergoing tests at the Ordnance Department of the United States army.
 The bullet, which scarcely is an inch in length, and is encased in a jacket of nickel steel, will be nearly third lighter than any bullet now used in the standard army rifles of the world. It will have greater muzzle velocity than any other bullet, and will be the only sharp pointed bullet used in military service.
 At short range the new bullet will penetrate thirty nine inches of seasoned oak; at 300 yards fourteen of the enemy's soldiers, standing one behind the other, chanced to be within range of the bullet a quarter of a mile away, every one of them would be disabled by the single bullet.
 The bullet is estimated to be 100 per cent more deadly than the present army bullets because of an almost flat trajectory. A serious defect in all army rifle bullets has been the high degree of curve resulting from the necessary elevation of the muzzle of the rifle in order to carry the bullet long distance.
 The bullet now in use in firing at a 1000 yard range is elevated twenty three feet from the base line at 300 yards. In other words, a soldier standing in direct range of a bullet aimed at target 1000 yards distant would entirely safe midway between the sharp shooter and the target as the bull let would pass over his head with more than seventeen feet to spare. The sharp-pointed bullet shows a rise of only ten feet at 300 yards in firing at 1000 yards range.
 The difference in trajectory be- tween the two bullets means that with the present bullet an ad . vancing infantry line would be safe for 700 yards on 1000 yards range, and the calvary would h ave safety zone of about 400 feet.
 With the flat bullet in servie the participants in a calvary charge of 1000 yards would be within dang erzone from be- ginning to end, while the ad- vancing infantry would be in safety zone for less than 4O( yards of the distance.
 The possibilities of tue nev bullet are better appreciated whel it is considered thaO the new arin. rifle b as all effect tiI 6 range of Il, mites The new bttllet compai 6 dls lsadvanlaseously Ni'h ti: pres ent bullel oniy Ill respect | ace tracy. lhus for the tes l h;4,. 6 bsen decidedly id lavor { tne, old bullcl iroLu the sharp SD ooters point of view.

The advantages of Saloons to the
 Good" People of the Towns.

The advantages of Saloons to the
 Good" People of the Towns.
 Sam Jones' Christian Christianity
 The saloon is most benevolent institution to the upper crust of town and city society. In the first place it furnishes employ ment to many men who are as anxious for the essentials of life as any of us, and since society provides this means for obtain ing wealth the saloon man and his employers should be respected upon the same grounds as that of the ordinary merchant.
 The real advantage of the sa- loon 10 county site towns is ap- parent to all who will take time to consider.
 The merchants and well estab- liShed business men in general are too much enlightened to be- come drunkards, and the small business man who is not so much established in moral character, etc., often becomes a drunkard, goes broke, and thereby gets out of the way ot the successful busi- ness man.
 Of course the saloon has it's disadvantages to the well-to-d do people of the towns and cities, but such is the case in every business. Some few of the boys of we'll to-do people will become arunkards, thieves, cut -throats, and robbers; their parents will be able to hire the courts to turn them loose, and not many will ever be hung or sent to the pen itentiary.
 The advantages of the saloon so far outstrip the disadvantages that all towns and cities are justi- fled in maintaining the saloon from financial standpoint,-and money is our God, so let us
 
 bravely speak the rude truth.
 When we have saloons at the big towns the country boys and older fools from the interior of the country will come in, get a few drinks, feel rich, and spend all the money they have before leaving town, paying fancy prices for everything they buy. Some will get crazy drunk, fight, and occasionally kill a man, all of which contributes to the finan- ciai success of the we'll to- do deople of the towns.
 The court officials all live in town, and outlawry brings tlials, and murder cases are especially grand for bringing the country lDccpie Iltu town; 1t saves the n1ceesity nd expense of Sales day; 1t tends to keep the country peoplo poor aad ignorant, that yi.c loW.. pcopie may tie better ..e and dominate the polltics .l ] tic country.
 4ne oaluon has very ben eficial and wholesome effect up. on the laboring people of towns ane cities, and nothing so muck enhances the advantage of the , employing class Laooring people are much inclined to drink, which of course tends to keep then poor and out of money, thereby enabling the well-to-do people to get work at minimum figures , alu best of all many working

WAITING ON BELGIUM.
Cause of Delay in Acting on Alleged
Congo Abuses.

From an official source it is learned that
the delay in calling an International con-
ference of the powers signatory to the Ber-
lin treaty to consider the advisability Of
taking action toward correcting the abuses
in the Congo Free State is due to the desire
to await the outcome Of the discussion Of
the question now going on In the Belgian
parliament. which Will determine whether
or not Belgium will assume the obligation
resting upon her In the case.
The extent to which this government will
intercede in behalf of the people OF the
Congo, 1t is stated. depends considerably
upon the fate of the Lodge resolution. al
though 1t is well known. and Secretary
Root has SO informed all those who have
conferred with him on the subject. that the
