careful examination of the target showed that
out OF the full magazine of fifty cartridges dis
charged by the gun OPERATOR forty-fve shots had
hit the mark The other five shots, the gunner
explained had been sent into nearby fislpond
In order that he might get by the splash of the
water an instantaneous report of the accuracy
OF his aim. The fact that this was the first time
the gun had been taken aoft together with the
trueness OF the aim as shown by the examina.
uon OF the target, spoke emphatically then and
there of the great possibilities of fleets of aero
planes loaded with these rapid-fre guns, soaring
over column of the enen1ys troops
The potential result of swooping aircraft arm
ed to the teeth with death-dealing bullets is stag
gerlng to ordnance officers Of the army and navy
who discuss it. Where will this lead?" they ask.
1t is possible that the air is to harbor the greatest
destructive forces in modern warfare? There
seems nothing to prevent it.
This remarkable aeroplane gun is the invention
of Lieut.-Co Isaac N Lewis of the United States
army coast artillery corps. Curiously enough
the gun was designed primarily for infantry and
cavalry use. Later, however Colonel Lewis was
impressed with it's possibilities for use in a,ro
planes
Heretofore the difficulties which have stood in
the way of serviceabe guns for aeroplanes have
been difficulty in manipulation too great weight
terrhc recoil which would knock the frail craft
out of gear and fame from the rife which would
endanger the machine.
In the Lewis gun these difficulties are elimi
mated. There is smoke-no fame-only the
sound of the explosion tells that the gun has been
hred There is no recoil and the gun is SO bal
anced by the magazine that the aim is not even
interrupted while the gun is being fired 1t can
be fired at as high rate as $50 shots minute
but the rate may be reduced to $50 shots per

TELEPATHY AMONG ANIMALS

Birds and beasts receive information through
the medium of earth vibrations John D. Quack-
enbos NJ. D., writes in the North American Re-
view. Certain game birds and animals are sensi-
tive to the faintest earth tremor, and ap-
preached only by the hunter who steps slowly
and carefully, without Earring the surface of the
ground. The nature of the vibrations also con-
veys a notion of the direction from which the
danger is coming, and wild game depend much
on their apprehension of this upon detection
by the When it comes to cosmic vibrations,
the subtle movements communicated to the
earth's crust by the tides the pull of heavenly
bodies, animals are mysteriously affected as to
appetite, sleep, nervous poise and possibly pro-
creation and migration.
Recent experiments have proved moths and
other insects to be capable of thought transfer
ence SO far-reachng to impress their fellows
miles away with a knowledge of their where
abouts.
It is we'll known to whaers that cetacean
struck by q harpoon has power instantly to con-
yey intelligence of the presence of an enemy to
a spouting school half mile distant, SO that the
individuals composing it Immediately disappear

If one trout in a pool has caught glimpse Of
him all are instantly appraised of his presence

Some twenty years ago the late Austin Corbin
purchased $4,000 acres Of farm and wood land in
New Hampshire and stocked the estate known
as Blue Mountain park with elk and deer. In
1897 is was predicted that the extinct carnivores
whose natural food is venison, would return to
the region. Not long afterward the presence Of
pumas or mountain lions was reported in the
park and vicinity and the black bear lynx and
wildcat are conspicuously in evidence today

PAYING FOR THE SPOONS

If 1t were not for the souvenir thief no hotel
manager would be gray-headed or bald Their
lives would be one long dream of bliss broken
three times daily by spasm of happiness when
they sell 35 cents worth of food for $125. But
the memento grabber ages him. 1--WE tried to

So all hotel managers have adopted a new

fected by either direct transmitted heat, no
matter of rapid and long-continued firing.
The development tests of the gun, which have
been in progress for two years, show that the
barrel does not become overheated under con-
tinuous fire at full speed, and that it will not
therefore be necessary to carry along all extra
barrel when on the firing line. Since cooling
water is necessary, and no special mount except
small stake or 'cowboy' mount weighing about
eight pounds the field equipment of the Lewis
gun is reduced to a minimum. The gun may be
fired from any natural support found in the field,
such as a rock log, stump tree mount of
earth. It is possible to empty magazine
while holding the gun to the shoulder from the
hip, as the recoil effect is scarcely noticeable.
1t is a matter of note that of the most
conspicuous things the battlefield in South
Africa was the jet of steam from the boiling
water which being used on the barrels of
the rapid fire guns for cooling purposes.
The gun is simplicity ITSELF 1t has only forty
seven parts as compared with twice that number
for other rapid fire guns. On the battlefield or
in the air where tools are necessarily scarce, and
where they are needed more than anywhere else
when they wanted the Lewis gun would GER
tainly cause worry should some piece of the
mechanism be broken otherwise get out of
working order, since the only tool required to
dissemble assemble the gun is the point of a
bullet
The sustained rapidity of fire of which the gun
is capable makes 1t far dangerous and
effective weapon than any housekeeping device
as yet devised.
The accuracy of the firing of the Lewis aero
plane gun on it's first test not only surpris-
ing in ITSELF but has aroused attention on the part
of our army and navy experts to the fact that
our batteshps and the disappearing gun bat
teries of coast defenses are completely I'M
prepared for attack from the air In the opinion
of many, including Colonel Lewis who is also
the inventor of the Lewis depression position
finder now employed in the coast artillery serv-
ice, it marks the beginning of DEVELOPMENT
that is destined to produce radical changes in
our land defense and coast ornaments both for
offense and defense.
According to Colonel Lewis, an aeroplane cost
ing not more than $4,000 will easily be able to
carry the gun, 1000 rounds of ammunition, the
gun operator and the pilot. At height of one
mile greater and while moving at a speed of
Fifty miles per hour it will be possible with this
gun to pour in the most destructive fire upon the
deck and fire control masts of battleships. and
