Aeroplane Quick Firers.

London, Sept 2.-EXperiments with
quick firing gun in an aeroplane
having proved highly satisfactory, the
government will equip several more
airships with guns. The test with the
quick firing gun was made in a stiff
breeze at a height OF 400 feet. Some
twenty rounds of ammunition were
fired at imaginary objects on the plain
directly beneath the aeroplane. The
recoil had little effect upon the steadi-
ness of the machine.
The biplane used was specially
strengthened in order to carry the
weight of the gun and ammunition
The gunner sat in box shaped seat
in front of the pilot and had n clear
view of the gun, which worked on a
pivot and cOulC fire in all directions.
Already provision has been made to
carry bombs in most CT the army BIZ
planes as result: of the experiments

A War AGAINST Wolves.

Austin. Tex. Sept. Through the
cooperation Of the authorities of the
American and Mexican states on the
border it is probable that the wolves
that have long ranged the valley Of the
Rio Grande will be practically wiped
out within few years Governor Col
quit has interested the various govern
ments in Il plan to conduct an earnest
campaign against these pests and large
bouEtieS are expected to bring the de-
sired result.
The sheep and goat industry has as
sumed considerable importance in re-
cent years i'll the southwestern part of
Texas and in southern New Mexico and
Arizona. 1t has been retarded. how
ever. by the presence of large numbers
of big wolves that have preyed on the
f1ocks with disastrous results. Scores
of sheep often have been killed in a
night by these marauders. In conse-
Quence the three states offered boun-
ties and sent out hunters to kill the
animals. Governor Colquitt recently
asked the state department to put the
matter before the Mexican authorities.
as it was found that wolves crossed
from that country when others had
been wiped out on this side of the
boundary.

Sutton, Neb., Sept. 3. - Miss Della
Antilles, a schoOlteacher in this place,
returns to her duties this week after
having spent q delightful vacation.
She says it was delightful, although
it was a strenuous one. Miss Antilles
has established an enviabe record as
woman pedestrian. Her ambition
was nothing less than to hike it
from Sutton to San Francisco. and
when she left Ogden, Utah, last July,
with 1000 miles ahead of her before
her destination was reached. she said
she felt as fresh rs daisy. She had
then walked 001 miles in twenty-seven
days, an average of thirty-three miles
day. I'm out for walk, not a
ride" she told the scores of farmers
who offered her lift" along the roads
in the various states through which
she passed.
Miss Antilles travelling outfit was
unique. 1t consisted of an automatic
pistol and a toothbrush. She took
just enough money along. with her to
pay her walking expenses. How
ever, she had letters of credit to use
in an emergency. Her extra clothing
she sent on ahead by express and
caught up with the trunk every few
days.

AS an Aid to Parcels Post.

Washington, Sept. Sin advocating
the establishment of parcels post
system in connection with government
ownership of express companies Sena-
tor Gardner said the fourteen express
companies could be purchased by the
government at an aggregate cost tof
about $21.OOO,O00. He said many
senators estimated that it would re-
quire $30,O00.0O0 or $4O,0O0,0O0 more,
but under the power Of concentration
and a perfectly just basis it could be
accomplished for the sum he named.
He computed that the express COM
panes collect $170O00,O00 a year from
the American people. Millions of dol
lars could be saved. said the senator,
if small shipments could be made at
fair rates The parcels post would
make that possible aud nearly all this
vast sum be divided between the pro-
Queer and consumer.
