WARS or THE FUTURE

The war OF the future will be the
war Of the inventor, even more than IL
is to-day. Science mechanics and
electricity have, as we all know, rev.
olutionized modern warfare 20 ter
rible degree. Talk to men who re-
member the Crimean war, and they
will tell YOU that the present conflict
is not war; ii is wholesale murder
fearful, horrible and inhuman. The
wars of the future, however. If the
scientist is 10 be believed will be even
more destructive.
AT the present he is experimenting
with heat rays. If, he contends. light
rays can be thrown upon a hostile
position with the searchlights, why
cannot heat rays be similarly reflect
ed; and if heat rays can be sent TO "A
distance, why not the hottest rays pos
sible-namely, those OF the oXy-acety-
lene torch? Before such a nery glare
fortresses Of steel and stone would
melt, the biggest guns would crumble
down into pools OF steel. and whole
regiments of mon might, with one
blast. be shriveled into ashes.
Neither do scientists consider it out
side the bounds Of possibility in the
future 10 devise means OF decorating
explosives at a distance by wireless
waves. The latter at present scatter
in every direction, but the day may
come when il will be practicable to
restrict them TO only one direction, so
that they may be aimed; and ii is not
too far-fetched to predict that some
future general, touching a button, will
send speeding to their target, which
will be, perhaps, an entire army divi-
sion. wireless impulses so powerful
that they will electrocute every man
within their range.
In regard to big guns experts say
that the limit is by no means reached
with the manufacture of 17-inch firing
monsters. They prophesy 60-inch and
even, S0-inch guns, which will be able
TO shoot sixty or eighty miles, the
range being given by aviators signal
ling by wireless.
Again, plans are already under way
for the construction of monster sub
marines, with a cruising radius from
London to New York. They will be
able to carry batteries of torpedoes
and ample fuel and provisions for the
long cruise. They will thus gain some
OF the independence of land possessed
by dreadnoughts for even they must
visit coaling stations or be attended by
GOLFERS. The next half century, in
deed, may see battleships swept from
the seas, and some nation holding the
mastery of the ocean by virtue of a
fleet Of submarines. Tit Bits

SALOONS MUST GO

I'm pronouncing sentence on over
100 men, including the mayor of Terre
Haute, Ind, for conspiracy in election
frauds. Judge Anderson OF the United
States District Court said:
My notion is that the saloon will
have to go. | believe that the time
will come when the people will rise
up and smash the saloon, at least as
we have il now. The evidence in this
case showed that the saloons were the
center of nearly all the corruption in
the election AT Terre Haute."

ing to the engineer.
Many piles, varying In number
from four 10 80, under each pier
were found TO be bearing no weight
the report states. Also, the mortar
between the stones below the wa
ter's edge was found to be washed
out or loosened in all but one pier.
Considerable damage had been done
TO the piers by the ice.
Naturally. the coping on the piers
was checked and cracked by the
fire. Mr. McCo' mick recommend
that three of the piers. the seven h
eighth and eleventh, must be gaZe1
and rebuilt from the waters edge
On other piers from two TO seven
courses of stone must be relaid.
But the condition of the piers
around the water line is not the re-
suit of the fire. With piles out OF
bearing and mortar washed out OF
the joints, the old bridge structure
apparently, was not as safe as most
people believed IL TO be- especially
