PISTOL AND RIFLE
SILENCER A SUCCESS

WASHINGTON. Aug 12-Accord-
ing to experts of the army and navy
a pistol and rife silencer, which is
thoroughly effective. has finally been
invented, the invention being the work
of DR.. T. T. Fauntleroy of Staunton.
Va. DR. Fauntleroy's invention has
been tried out by the Oficial Arsenal
Committee of the Army and Navy and
found 20 be 95 per cent. plus in EN-
cheney in the silencing of the concus-
sion, taking up of recoil and fash of
the gun at night as compared with the
Maxim silencer. Dr. Fauntleroy's in
vention can be attached to any pistol
or rife, and is on an entirely different
principle from the Maxim invention.
The principle OF Or. Fauntleroy's s
silencer seems very simple. It con
sists Of a metal tube Joined TO a
chamber, the tube slipping over the
barrel Of the gun The additional
weight is scarcely perceptible. Inside
the chamber of the silencer are small
partitions or chambers At the end
nearest the gun barrel a chamber first
receives the bullet, taking I'D a large
part Of the gases caused by the explo-
sion Of the powder AS the bullet
passes into the next chamber. concus-
sion springs contract the first cham
berr and this action continues the en-
tire length Of the tube, which is about
five inches long. Each separate cham
ber takes up a portion Of the gases,
until by the time the bullet has passed
the length OF the tube. the four cham
bers have taken up practically all Of
the gas. the conclusion springs taking

KILLS SHIP RATS
WITH WASTE GASES

Instead OF fumigating vessels which
arrive in Philadelphia from ports
within the bubonic plague zone, by
burning sulphur in their holds, the
Public Health and Marine Hospital
Service Of the Delaware River and
Bay will use a new process, known
As the Harkar method. which is
named after its inventor doctor Of
Australia. In this process there is
a pipe attached TO the smokestack Of
the vessel though which the fumes
from the frehox may be diverted
through the hold at any time and all
the rats or whatever else may be
there which is undesirable will be
suffocated. OF course for the present
no vessels will be equipped with the
apparatus. so that the gas will have
to be supplied by another vessel with
all the necessary appliances. For
this purpose the United States quar-
antine vessel Bratton has been or
dered to Philadelphia and is expect
ed to arrive very soon. The Bratton
has been used al Fortress Monroe
by DR.. H s. Cummings, and II IS be-
cause of their great success that the
Bratton has been sent 10 Philadelphia.
The Bratton is equipped with ap
paratus to send the fumes from its
own fire box into any vessel which is
10 be fumigsted. By this method
gases which were formerly waste will
be utilized and the expense Of the sui
phur will be saved The work here
has been very heavy and the arrival
Of the Bratton will expedite matters
materially.
