Silent Gun Invented.
A patent for ''silent firearm" has
been granted TO Hiram Percy Maxim,
son of the machine gun inventor The
device is designed to render the dis
charge of a revolver or gun noiseless
and may be applied to the barrel of an
ordinary firearm. The principle in
volved is similar to that Of the auto
mobile muller, the gas produced by
the ignition of the powder being allow
ed to escape gradually. thus preventing
the sudden compact with the atmos-
phere which causes the noise in the or
binary firearm.

RUMORS ARE BELIEVED.
italians Think Duke Of Abruzzi and
Miss EIkins Are Engaged.

Rome, March 19.-Nothng is known
here Of the attitude of the royal fam
ily with reference to the reported en-
gagcment Of the Duke of the AbruzZi
and Miss Elkins, notwithstanding the
statements sent from Rome purporting
to be q forecast of the courts action in
the event of a marriage. 1t may be
observed, however. that as there has
been no official denials of the dukes
enga cement to Miss Elkins it is gen.
orally taken to be true. Furthermore.
ii King Victor Emmanuel disapprOved
of the engagement he undoubtedly
would have made known his objec-
tons. as the Italian law governing
marriages among the members Of the
royal family holds such unions invalid
without the consent Of the King.
The Giornale D'Italia is the only
newspaper in Rome which comments
upon the engagement. 1t says:
The courageous duke has accuS-
toned us to his daring. and his actor
now is going against tradition and
court etiquette for the sake of love
does not surprise US. If he went to
America to engage himself to beau
tiful. cultivated and high-spirited girl
whom he loved. he must have the con-
sent of the King, who is the aibiter Of
royal marriages. III the consent of the
King is given such a marriage would
not be considered morSanatic and the
wife Of the Duke of Abruzzi would be
received at court as his duchess"

The interest created in leading cities
during the past year by young MI.
Cooner with his new preparation, is
largely accounted for by peculiar
quality possessed by this medicine.
which he calls his New Discovery.
Mr.. Cooper believes that internal
PARASITES, or tapeworms, are respon-
sible for much i'll health. and it is an
undoubted fact that his medicine has
expeIIed immense numbers of these
creatures in various cities visited by
him. The young man also believes
that stomach trouble is the main cause
of all i'll health. He claims that few
can have poor health with a good di-
gestion. He further claims that his
New Discovery medicine does nothing
but tone up the stomach, yet it not
only expels the parasites, but relieves
many other ailments not as rule as
ISOLATED with stomach trouble.

progress barred The children behind
did not know what was the matter
and pressed so fiercely upon those
ahead of them that their comrades
against the door were trampled under

door open and put an end to the panic
The unconscious children were restor-'
ed by local doctors and taken to their
homes.
