MEANINGS OF WORD CALDER.
Either the Diameter Of a Gun or Its
Length Divided by Diameter.

There Is surely no word in the nom.
enclature of guns, big and little. which
has caused. and is causing so much
confusion in the lay mind as the word
Caliber.
The confusion arises chiefly from
the use Of the term in an adjectival
sense to indicate length, rs when We
say 50.caliber. 6-inch gun.
The word calibey as applied to artil-
Terry signifies essentially and at. all
times the diameter of the bore Of n
gun. A gun, then, Of six-inch caliber
is gun whose bore is just six inches.
For convenience, and because the
power OF a gun, when once its bore
has been decided upon. depends sc
greatly upon It's length, artillerists are
In the habit Of defining the length OF
the gun In terms of the caliber.
The six-inch rapid-fire gun, e.
mounted on the latest ships of the
navy, is trifle under 20 feet in
length, and Is therefore, known as q
50-caliber gun
In the case of small arms, the cali
Der Is expressed In hundredths OF an
Inch, as when we say 22-caliber or
32-caliber pistol, meaning that the
bore is 20 or .32 OF an inch In diane.

M. Z. PRESIDING ELDERS.
Strong Sentiment Among Methodists
To Change the Title.

Copper country Methodists are inter.
ested in the M. E. general conference
report of the committee on revision
against the proposed change of the
title of presiding elder" to that of
district superintendent, which caused
the liveliest debate thus far in the gen.
eral conference at Baltimore.
The committees report was rejected
by large majority. leaving the ques-
ton in such shape that it may come
up again at any time. This result was
not reached until after motion to re-
commit the report to the committee,
with instructions to report recommend
atoms for the change, and another sim
ply to recommit had been laid on the
table by large majorities. On the
question of the adoption of the commit
tees report the adverse vote was equal
ly decisive.
That there was a strong sentiment |
FOR the suggested change and for
speedy action looking thereto was
shown in the tenor of the discussion
md the strength of the opposition to
he committee report against it.
The concensus of opinion among the
opponents of the adoption of the report
vas that the title presiding elder"
vas misnomer and gave the opinion
hat his duties are of a sacramental
'aaracter, whereas the really admins
rative name, district superintendent"
.arried more weight and is more indi-
.ative of the true Importance of the
position.
