bullet.Proof Caps.

The steel caps which are being
served out to British soldiers at the
front are marvels Of llghtness and
strength. They are made Of manga
nese steel, and are bullet-proof to a
Webley automatic ut five yards. Fur
thermore, during n recent experiment,
one Of the caps was only slightly dent
ed when heavy poker, raised over the
head and brought down with both
hands and all possible force, was
crashed upon It.
The British helmets are called "soup
plates" by the soldiers, and are so con-
structed that they not only protect the
wearer from the enemy's weapons but
from fragments Of the cap itself. Rub
Der studs nre placed between the he'll
met and the skull, while nest to the
latter Is double lining Of waddine
and felt. This not only renders the
helmet more comfortable but helps to
protect the skull from jagged frag
ments.

K|LLSSELF AFTER

German C. Bachelor Had
Tried to Force Attentions on
Miss Mary Stroman.

German G. Bachelor. clerk in the
Southern Railway Company office. kill
ed himself with pistol on the street
near the entrance to the National Mu-
scum grounds at 18th and B streets
northwest yesterday afternoon. after
trying to shoot Miss Mary Stroman, a
clerk in the Post Office Department.
This is the third serious result of
pistol play in this, city within forty
eight hours.
Miss Stroman, who resented Batch
elor's attentions because he was mar
ried. had already complained to the
the man for making threats had been
issued. 1t had not been served.
Miss Stroman is the daughter of
member of the police department and
lives at III X street northeast. Batch
elor lived at 1922 street northeast.
Feared for Her Life.
Miss Stroman left the employ of the
railway company and obtained posi-
ton in the Post Office Department.
However, Bachelors attentions, which
began at the railroad office, did not
cease when Miss Stroman left there.
She tried to stop them, but was not at
all successful. and the matter came to
pass where she believed Bachelor ac-
tuaIy meant what he said when he
threatened her life.
Monday she called at the Office of As
sistant District Attorney Ralph Given.
and told her story, which resulted in
the issuance of a warrant for the ar
rest of Bachelor on the charge that he
had made threats against Miss Stroman
The warrant was turned over to Detec-
tive Dallamico of the ninth precinct,
but was not served, and the delay came
near resulting in death for the young
woman.
Miss Stroman left the Post Office De-
partment between 4:30 and o'clock
yesterday afternoon. Bachelor was
waiting at the door for her. She told
him to leave, she says, but he refused.
She objected to him accompanying her
on the street. but he made so much
of scene that she did not care to
have him become noisier, thinking it
would be wiser to walk with him as
far as 18th and B streets. She hoped to
induce him to let her alone in the fu-
ture,
