UNUSUAL PROCEEDINGS.
Assistant Attorney General of State
Fights Interests He Is Sup
posed to Defend.

Nephi, July 1S-The case of the First
National bank of Nephi VS.. B. Christen-
sen, county treasurer, ct al, has created
a great deal of interest in the community
here. The bank claims that il is discrm-
mated against in its assessment, that ii
is assessed at a higher valuation than
other property of the county, and cited
several instances of where il claimed
property was assessed at only one-thrd
of its real value. The county offered evil
dence to show that the bank was given
the same 30 per cent reduction from its
actual value other property, and
claimed that the capital. surplus, undi-
vided profits and reserve-that which is
actually due the stockholders, is the basis
of valuation. The court took the question
under advisement.
That which caused considerable COM
ment during the trial of this case was the
fact that a. r. Barnes of the firm of
Breeder g. Barnes. holding the office of
deputy state attorney general, appeared
as counsel for the plaintiff against the
county; and as the state is as much inter-
ested in the taxing of the bank as the
county. the matter resolved itself into the
proposition of the deputy attorney gen.
eral fighting the very interests he is sup
posed to defend.
Another matter which created some ex-
element in the court room today was the
rebuke which Judge Greenwood gave to
Attorney George A. Udall. Mr.. UdalI ap-
peared as counsel for both the PLAINTIFF
and defendant in the case of Agnes Dove
VS.. John Dove, and the court in no nm
certain words. accused the attorney of
conduct unprofessional and unbecoming
member of the bar. and forthwith dis
missed the answer of the defendant

Bangerter did not enter the little room
housing the weapon, for once the power
is turned on it is not necessary that
anyone should be near the gun.
Into the hopper he poured the bullets
and from the hidden muzzle of the gun
came the steel billets. There was no
explosion, no smoke and no click of
shells being forced empty from the
magazine. The only sound that came
from the gun was the dropping of the
bullets into the funnel.
For ten seconds the bullets were fed
into the gun. The spectators, crouch
ing behind a wooden partition that had
been erected to protect them from re-
bounding shots, saw the target, which
was about ten feet square and sixty
feet away. riddled with holes within a
second after the rain of steel began to
rattle on the half-inch pine boards. The
bullets were three-eighths of an inch in
diameter.
Within two seconds there was a big
gaping hole in the center of the target.
Five feet in the rear of the first target
was a second target. also constructed of
half-inch pine. and behind that, five
feet away, was a third. Having demol-
ished the first obstruction the bullets
tore through the second, and when the
power was turned off, the third target
was riddled with bullets

New York HeraldD

Without any sound except the patter
of bullets as they made holes through
targets constructed of pine boards, 100
shots a second were discharged yester-
day morning from a nOiseless and pow
derless gun in the loft of the Standard
Meter company's factory, at 245 Robin
son street, Flatbush.
At the demonstration, which was
made by the inventor of the gun, Fred
erick Bangerter, mechanical engineer,
of 21S1 Bedford avenue, were repre-
sentatives of the Herald and several
mechanical experts, who had been es-
pecially invited to witness the test.
No one was permitted to inspect the
gun, which was completely hidden by
a wooden enclosure constructed around
it in corner of the loft. Not even the
muzzle of the weapon could be seen.
Through a hole in the easement ran a
funnel shaped hopper into which Mr.
Bangarter dumped the steel bullets.
Before the demonstration began Mr..
Bangerter explained that his invention
does not require explosives of any kind
and that compressed air has nothing to
do with the discharge of the bullets.
The mechanism, he explained, is simple
so simple, in fact. that anyone with a
bent for machinery would understand
IL if once permitted to examine the gun.
Power from a seven-horse power cleo
trio motor supplied the propelling force
which discharged the bullets This
power was transmitted by a belt which
ran from the fly wheel of the motor
through an opening in the easement
and over another wheel which was
connected with the guns mechanism.
No sound except the whirl of the
wheel came from the gun enclosure
when the power was turned on. Mr..

WHEN GET INTO BED.

burgess Johnson in Harper's Magazine
I'm never frightened in the dark
Though l am very small;
| never sit all scared and bark
For ogres in the hall.
But when my prayers are said
have one awful dread.
That something waits to grab my toes
When | get into bed
/ try to think of pleasant things
Each time / get undressed;
And how each day no evil brings
If children do their best
But the thought comes in my head
AS I'm turning down the spread
That something's going to grab my toes
When | climb into bed.
And when there's nothing more to do.
With bedclothes open wide,
1t makes me SILVER through and through
A-trying to decide
Which foot shall go ahead,
Cause I'm sure I'd tumble dead
II something ever grabbed my toes
AS | got into bed.

per cent of the money will go to the

Il have no intention of taking out

have already received an offer from an
English syndicate. They want me to
construct a gun that will come up to
The British government requirements
that the bullets penetrate a pine board
one inch in thickness at distance of
300 yards.
1.-The gun which I shall build next
will do all this and be capable of dis
charging 500 shots a second or 10000 a
minute To drive this gun 120-horse
power will be necessary. By the time
the new gun is completed | will have
ready a specially constructed auto
truck on which the weapon will be
mounted.
Unless the power broke down it
would be impossible for the enemy to
capture one of these guns, which are so
simple that they can be mounted on a
swivel and swung to any point of the
compass. Two men, one operating the
engine supplying the power and the
other. directing the gun, could stand off
