Japanese Rifle Rest.

An Austrian military organ draws
attention to one of the minor details
of japanese musketry practice during
the late war which seems to have es-
capped notice in Europe. In European
armies the question of rifle rest for
long range firing has led to many IN
genious contrivanees for devising tri.
pod arrangements. The Japanese War
Department solved the difficulty in a
much simples but equally effective
way. They just provided the soldier
with bag Of stout cotton eight inches
wide and twenty inches long, which
he could carry in his cartridge case
on the march, and on reaching the
fighting line could in a minute stuff
with earth or stones. The device
gave amazing assistance In accuracy

Colorless Proper Names.

There is a fascinating If considerably
discredited branch of .philology in
which the facts OF language are, in
the absence of other documents, made
10 imply the facts of history. Many Of
us preserve from college days a COM
plete and engaging picture of that
Aryan race which descended from the
plateau of Iran TO rule the world, and
that linguistic pastoral still imposes
itself in the face of more skeptical
science. Now, a philologer who stu
died the development of proper names
from this point of view would not
fail to note their melancholy tendency
TO bleach out in the wearing. AT any
early period, and indeed we'll toward
the beginnings of modern history,
proper names told something as TO
paternity, occupation and habitation
today they are quite colOrless. A new
Ulysses would no longer be Laertides;
no Peter indicates that he is the son
of Paul. A Carpenter or a Weaver
is likely TO be a lily-fingered stock
broker. Even the place names have
pretty much disappeared, except in
the case of nobility, and since the
average gentle family has not for
years lived on its titular estate, or
perhaps has none at all, our new Gas
tons de Folk give us a name about
as sapless as John Jones.-New York
