GREAT RIFLES DANGEROUS.

There Is a countrywide sentiment
in favor OF prohibiting the use of
high-powered rifles In the big game
districts. Rifles that carry a mile and
kill should be missing in the hunting
field, as the handler of the gun, no
matter how expert, cannot tell where
the bullet which even penetrates its
object will eventually stop. A case
in the West only recently proved a sad
object lesson. Two sons. with their
father, we're hiking along one OF the
deer trails Of that country. with the
latter in the lead. Suddenly tie
father was seen to pitch forward.
When picked up by the sons. who
we're but a stride in the rear. IT was
discovered that another victim had
paid the toll for high-powered rife
shooting. There was no report Of a
rife, indicating that the stray bullet
had come from a great distance. yet
with sufficient penetrative power to
kill. During the last deer season a
number OF gunners were killed. and
IL is to be sincerely hoped that I.egis-
latures will take some step to preven,
as far as possible the recurrence OF
such tragedies.

SHELLS MAY NOW
BE RELOADED

The advent of smokeless powder
has brought about many changes in
arms and ammunition of all descrip-
tions. and the improvement in paper
shells is noticeable as much as in any
other thing. particularly in the quail
ity of the paper, the heavy reinforce
ment within the head and the extern
sion OF the metal composing the head.
1t will also be noticed that the
smokeless shells are now made to 1T
the chamber closer than heretofore.
All of these changes have added
considerably to the cost of produc-
ton, but they were necessary to en-
able the shells 10 stand up to the re-
Quirements, which they now Dc per-
fectly.
While the increase in the cost TO
the purchaser may not be of conse-
ouence. especially to those who are
blessed with a fat pocketbook, there
are those, however, who are OF an
economic turn of mind, and they have
found out that some OF these shells
may be reloaded a number of times
When loading dense nitropowder il
is necessary to use shells adapted TO
dense-pOwders. These shells are
manufactured with high base by all
standard cartridge companies.
Bulk smokeless powoer should al
ways be loaded by measure and not
by weight Any standard measure
that can be used for black powder
may be used with equally good re-
suits when loading bulk smolSeless
powders. Standard loads are as fol-
lows:
Twenty-eight gauge guns, IL to .
drams by measure.
Twenty-gauge guns, 2 to 2la drains
by measure.
Thirteen-gauge guns, 2h to 2%
drains by measure.
Twelve-gauge guns, 2# TO 3K
drains by measure.
Ten-gauge guns, to drains, by
measure.

PENNSY LET'S
POWER CONTRACT
Philadelphia Corporation Will
Furnish $3.50 KiIOwattS to
Run Trains From Station

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 27-The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company an
nounced yesterday that the contract
for the power for the eletrifcation Of
its lines between Broad Street Sta
tion and Chestnut Hill had been let
to the Philadelphia Electric Com
pany. IL was said that probably all
of the local trains on these lines
would be operated by electric power
before the end of 1914. Also that
the first electric trains out of Broad
Street Station would be running
about September next.
The contract between the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad and the Philadelphia
Electric Company is for five years.
At the beginning the Pennsylvania
will use about 1900 horsepower. The
contract calls for a minimum of $3.50
kilowatts, with a load factor of 20
per cent. use of this current. The
contract calls for furnishing electric
power for the Main Line to Paoli and
and any addition OF extension thereto.
The railroad company also reserves
the right to call on the electric COM
pany for all additional power that
may he necessary for the electrical
requirements Of the road from time
to time for their general system.
The Philadelphia Electric Company
now supplies $4,000 horsepower daily
to the Philadelphia Rapid Transit
Company. Mr.. Mccall, president of
the Electric Company said that no
change or enlargement beyond the
usual will be necessary for supplying
the current for these lines. At the
present time the Christian street pow
er station, that probably will furnish
their extra power, has a capacity of
10000 horsepower, and in the hext
year this capacity will be increased
to 1S7 900 horsepower. The cost of
the current to the railroad company
for the first year will be about $780,
600. This figure will include Only
the current furnished for the Paoli
line
Whether the electrihcation of the
railroad will be by third rail or over
head wires was not announced at the
offices of the company yesterday. Ono
official said it had not been decided
which system would be adopted, Ind
that the poles and wires that had
been erected were forN eperimental
purposes only.
The electrifcation of the German
town and Chestnut Hill line. of course,
will include the electrifcation of suf-
fcient trackage on the main portion
of the New York division to bring the
suburban traffic from North Phila-
delphia to Broad Street Station The
total distance from Broad Street Sta
ton to Chestnut Hill IS l2 miles. The
distance TO be electrified on the Main
Line is approximately 20 miles. With
the completion of the present work
as planned the Pennsylvania Railroad
will have 80 miles of electrified lines
I'm the Philadelphia suburban district.

NEWTRUNKONDER
IN EFFECT JAM
uCe Pieces Of Baggage Crowd
the Cars and VIII Be
Eliminated

Notices have again been posted
calling attention to the new order
regulating the size OF trunks and bag
gage TO be handled on all railroads
In the United States, in effect January
l. and fixing the maximum size at "
inches in any direction.
Since July an order similar in
character has been in effect on the
New York Central and the New York,
New Haven and Hartford lines, but
exceptions were taken by travelling
men because the law originated with
the Interstate Commerce Commission
and was not expected to be in effect
until January 1. The intention was
to allow ample time for commercial
men to have their big trunks ex-
changed for those OF legal size.
This new order does not prohibit
trunks, but any over 72 inches in
length. width and height will be
turned over to the express companies,
and tho owner will have TO pay the
charges. In explanation of this order
the statement is made that, due TO
the largely increasing baggage busi-
ness on all railroads, there Is no
room for the huge trunks used by
many commercial travellers
Clothing men and those selling
furs. womon's apparel and hats
usually carry large TRUNKS An or
dinary trunk measures 54 inches,
while many are but 45 inches in di-
mcnsion. There is ot present an ex-
cess charge on trunks of unusual
length. based on the excess charge
for trunks weighing more than 100
pounds
