Long Range Firing

Initial velocity and angle of eleva- tion are the two principal factors in long range firing, according to Sid ney Graves Coon, M. M. E., in Les lies. The Germans are said to have bombarded Dunkirk from distance of 22 miles, They are believed to have used a 12-inch gun, throwing pro- jectile weighing 1000 pounds. Their success was due chiefly to the fact that the Germans have long been ad- vocates of high angle fire.
 At the Falkland Islands battle the German 8A inch guns threw shells much farther than the British 92-inch guns, because the British were unable to elevate their weapons more than IS degrees. while the Germans could reach 30 degrees. A heavy shell will also go farther than a light one be- cause it has more energy stored up to overcome the friction of the air.
 A shell fired at an elevation of 45 degrees will fall at an angle of 60 degrees. This is due to the friction of the air which has tendency continu- ally to slow up the projectile, while the attraction of gravity is pulling it downward from it's initial path. The result is that the shell is brought to earth much sooner than if the second half of its trajectory were duplicate of the first half.
 The German shell used at Dunkirk reached its highest point above the earth. about seven miles. after it had

wheel, letting the ends project lit tie beyond the rim With piece of rope he fastened his bulldog to one end of the board, and tied stray cat to the other end.
 The "pin wheel" exercise worked to perfection. The dog was determined to rob the cat of at least eight lives and the cat was melted to exceed the speed limit. The result was highly amusing to a crowd of small boys that gathered to watch the sport There was no doubt the bulldog was get ting exercise, when the humane so- ciety unfeelingly interfered and had the blacksmith arrested.
 The poor old obese bulldog is not the only creature that pursues whirligig in search of some ambition. It is common habit of man himself to rise in an endless circle after the goal which is always just beyond his reach.

Russians Not Perturbed

"Great, mysterious, breeding Rus s;a-the unfathomable Russia-goes about her daily ways with nonchal- ance that is baffling to the western mind.n writes Sloane Gordon from Petrograd. Her streets are crowded the streets of Petrograd and Moscow, and even of Warsaw, where the fight ,np lines are but a few miles distant. Tens of thousands, literal hordes of men of all ages, jostle and crowd along the famous Nevsky Prospekt from morning until night and far into the night. The hotel Hobbies are jammed with men and women in furs and finery."
 This picture of Russian cities IS in vivid contrast to the gloom which has settled down over Paris, which is feeling more acutely than any other of the capitals involved the horrors of war. Even London is beginning to show signs of uneasiness. Although MT. Sloane thinks that the Austrian and German cities are suffering from the war, other correspondents declare that there is little in these capitals to denote that conflict is going on. All, however, are agreed that the French are laboring under terrible strain and the heroism they are dis playing rebounds to their credit.
 The Russians seem imbued with a supreme confidence. The vast Rus sian empire has inexhaustible re- sources to draw from. It is said that she could lose million men every year and replace them with a million more indefinitely. Even under mod ern conditions of warfare the loss of a million men year is inconceivable. Russia could also take care of her vast population if every avenue of trade were closed, and in the mind of the average Russ the ultimate vis- tory of Germany and Austria is the most unlikely thing in the world.
 Not only are the Russians con vinced of their tremendous strength, but the war has solidified the country and drawn all its people into a patri- otic unit, as nothing else, probably, could have done. They have the ut most confidence in their government, in their leaders and in their ability to fight as long as need be.

From the Kansas City Star

Ioii the hanSaS City Star:
 A N officer, who is generally recog-
 "A nized as one of the foremost 4 A strategsts in the United States, recently gave the New York World an entrance of Italy into the war will have on the general situation. He said:
 Unless all of our information is wro:.- the difficulties of the Kaiser are about 25 per cent greater than they were before Italy entered the war. There appears to be an impression in some quarters that Italy will be put on the defensive, be- cause large German and Austrian forces have been mobilized at points on the bor- der. This theory may be put aside as valueless. Austria will be on the defen- sive from the beginning except probably in some cases It will make a drive at Italian points for strategcal reasons.
 Italy has trained army of S00,00o sol diers, who are superior to the same num- Der of Austrians and equal to the same number of Germans. In addition it has reservists of various classes who bring it's total fighting men up to about 3.000,000 More than half of this number is already mobilized Undoubtedly the entire force will be in the field within 60 days It's railroad facilities are far superior to the Austrian facilities.
 The principal purpose of the Italians at the opening of hostlities will be to drive the Austrians from old Italian territory and then they will be used to divert the German and Austrian forces from their main lines with "a view of compelling the Teutonic alliance to shift it's forces so that the French and British may make a successful drive into Germany.
 Based upon this theory. the first impor- tant campaign will be directed through the Austrian Tyrol and across the frontier near Goritz, in the direction of Vienna and Trieste. If Italy should make de- termined attempt along this line, the Aus trians will be compelled to divert large force from the other lines in the hope oe protecting the capital. If Italy should take Vienna. it would probably result in convincing the Austrians that they might

GUESS AT ITALY'S PLANS

as well give up the war and let the Kaiser fight it out on his own lines
 While one force is attempting to make it's way to Vienna it is probable that a second force may be swung over the French border at point in the vicinity of Turin and be directed against Ger mans southern border, in the vicinity of Strassburg. t
 If 5oo,000 men should be taken over the French territory near the Swiss border and suddenly attack the extreme end of the German line 1t might result eventual. ly in turning the line.
 This is a problem that has already req ceived serious consideration, and it may loom up as a tremendous factor in the war. If such an army were sent across southern France in this manner the Kaiser would be compelled to shift large force from one of his principal lines. with the result that it would be weak. ened accordingly.
 Of course the part that Italy will play in the war has already been completely worked out with the British and French war offices. and think you will find that every movement Is made in accord with well defined general line Of campaign.
 Assuming that 1000 900 men will be occu- pied in the campaign along the French- German border and the campaign in yi- enna. l think it highly probable that a. third army of Italians will assist in driv- ing the Turks from Europe Undoubtedly an army of 500,000 or thereabout will be mobilized at Brindisi and take transports for the Galipol peninsula. where they Will re-enforce the allied army of 250,> GOO, so that the fall of Constantinople will be assured without great delay Tta Inability of the allied fleets to get through the lines of forts on the shores of thu Dardanelles unless at great expense n ships and lives, appears to be fairly well established.
 Italy probably would ship a fourth great army across the Adriatic at point near Brlndisi. Here it could work up the Aus trian coast in connection with Montenegro and operate toward Trieste. Undoubtedly such a campaign would result in Italian control of Bosnia and Herzegovina with out great delay.

 "static,"the bane of the wireless operator-the sizzling, bubbling, crack ling ripple that shorts and snaps In the receivers when the ether is heavily charged with electricity-is violating neutrality It is doing its best to cut off communications by wireless between Germany and the United States. It was admitted at the offices of the Atlantic Communication company, which directs the Sayville wireless station, that be- cause of static" messages from Nauen are being received in fragmentary form and that 1t was necessary to repeat each message several times in order to get it at all.
 It Is upon the Sayville station that the German government has been de- pending since the start of the war to keep up communication with the United States through channel not controlled by it's enemies. If communication now should be interrupted between Sayville and Nauen the daily German war office statement could not be received here without passing through London
 Atmospheric electricity which is what static" really is--always makes felt its presence in the months of May, June and July on the North Atlantic The aurora borealis is one agent which is responsible for much static while electrical storms also are much more prevalent at this time of year. Each electrical discharge in the ether causes a wave similar to that produced by the spark of the wireless to surge out. This wave comes In upon the receiving ap- paratus and Is heard by the operator. Sometimes it is a long, meaningless hiss and splutter, sometimes a rattiinS succession of dots and dashes. as f some joker were pounding aimlessiy on some huge key.
 In any case the sounds disturb the re : eeption of signals Only the clearest and strongest signals can be read through static and faint signals, such as the Transatlantic waves cause on the detectors can be read only with the greatest difficulty. At times it simply is impossible to read any sig nals at all through static The dis turbing element cannot be turned out as can other signals, for it's wave is 90 broad it can be gotten all over the coils, no matter how far up or down the operator tunes" And the higher the wave length the worse is its ef- feet As the Transatlantic transmits sion is made upon a wave length CT 4000 metres or more static has most disturbing influence.

The United States and Germany

Germany's reply to President Will sons vigorous and comprehensive note was evasive and therefore not satisfactory, but as it's tone was meant to be conciliatory there seemed hardly a possibility of the United States being drawn into the European war.
 The Presidents new note, it is be- lieved, will be answered with more directness, and with clearer under standing of American sentiment. The German ambassador did a wise thing when, after his conference with Presi- dent Wilson, he sent an emissary to Berlin for the purpose of giving the foreign office information at first hand. This representative of the am- bassador is to recite to the German foreign minister the substance of the exhaustive conversation which took place at the White House between the ambassador and the President relat- ing to the American note and Ger many's unsatisfactory reply. The emissary, moreover, is to explain to the foreign office the tense feeling that has existed in the United States in regard to Germany ever since the torpedoing and sinking of the Lusi- tania.
 From this delicate mission good re- suits should come. Germany will not be expected to answer the Presi- dents second note until the foreign office has received the ambassadors personal envoy.
 The United States will remain neu- tral and there is little likelihood of the diplomatic relations between Der lin and Washington being severed.
