Armored cars for the United
States army, designed primarily
to guard railroads and territory
adjacent to railroad lines, and for
transporting trops past danger
poins, are being turned out by the
Standard Steel Car company at
Hammond, Ind, and rushed TO
the testing grounds at Sandy
Hook, N. J.
The cars are armored with one
inch steel plates and equipped
with a three-inch field gun and
20 rapid fire guns, the latter to
be operated through openings in
the sides of the car.
The interior is divided into
three compartments. two for
troops operating machine guns
and rifles and one, in the center,
for ammunition storage.
The new type cars were de-
signed by the army board of en-
gineers. The first was completed
in 81 days on rush order given
when trouble with Mexico was ex-
pected.
In the picture above the car is
ready for action. In the picture
below the field gun has just been
fired.

Gillies then closed like a clam
and shook his mead at further
questioning.
Gillies wore an Oregon boot.
He left Key West Saturday night
and made one request of the
guards, that he be not put in any
jail as they crossed the country.
The guards agreed. When they
searched him they found only a
small bottle of medicine which
seemed harmless, but which they
threw away.
Gillies threatened to kill him.

Still, there's the matter
Of the sharks hearts.
Its . little hard to fit
that I'm.
The u. 8. minister to Ecuador
G. 8. Hartman, told me about the
sharks hearts.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hartman have
been visiting their daughter, Mrs
r. d. Pinkerton, in Tacoma, and
are going back to Quito. Ecuador,
tonight.
The minister is keen-eyed

man and diplomat-an efficient

Now, Say, How Do You
Explain the w y the
Sharks Hearts Beat?

1.-THE crew were. fishing for
sharks, just to pass away the
time. They dropped the big hook
overheard, baited with a couple
o fpounds OF beef, and here came
the sharks; long, graceful fellows.
turning their white bellies up as
they rushed for it.
THE biggest one got 1t. 1t took
half an hour to tire him out so
he could be brought to the side
of the steamer. Then the captain
shot him several times with a
revolver, and they hitched a
strong rope to him and hoisted
him on board with a derrick.
He was nine feet long and
weighed about 1900 pounds. He
had about five dozen teeth in his
ugly, pointed jaw, and they were
as sharp as the blades of a safety
razor; but they had tiny saw
edge that razor blades don't have,
and IL one drew his thumb along
them, it came away bleeding.
They cut him up. to examine
his works; and among other
things, they took out his heart
a little, bluish-gray thing, hardly
bigger than my fist. 1t was still
beating
when I had looked at him as
long as | wanted to, and had ar
ranged to get few of the teeth
for souvenirs. went to another
part of the ship. In about Is
minutes ! happened to come back
that way, and saw the little,
bluish-gray heart lying on the
deck. took one look at 1t, and
called the captain.
Look here, captain!' Il
said. "this heart is still beat
ing!'
"'Yes," says the captain.
It'n go on beating until sun
down.
1T was then about three
hours before sunset.
thought he simply meant to
tell me that the heart would
beat for three hours; but
was surprised at that, and
said so.
1t won't stop till sum
down. he repeated, and IL
will stop them
Il laughed. That's a queer
thing you're telling me- ! said.
1--WE been in these waters for
years. he answered, and I've
watched many sharks heart, and
I know. 1t will stop at sun
down
Il came back pretty soon and
looked at the heart again. 1t was
still beating.
by and by they caught an
other shark and cut him up and
put his heart on the deck beside
the first one. After that |
watched both the little blush
gray lumps-beating, beating,
beating.
"One had been going an hour
or longer than the other-but
they both beat away steadily
till the sun went down.
And then they both stopped. !"

SPOKANE, Aug. 12.-From
the certainty of a well-esta blished
business and a sure income to
the uncertainty of homestead
and fight with the soil for a
livelihood.
That's what slip of a girl in
Spokane Is facing today.
She is Miss Agnes C. Gromish,
young business woman. She
can't decide whether or not to
take the dare which Fate flung
at her when it named her 59th in
the drawing for the Colville In
dian reservation, which Uncle
Sam has thrown open in northern
Washington.
Can this girl with her own
hands win a fortune from print
tive nature?
It's a big problem. No won
der she hesitates.
Big Surprise for Her.
Like scores of other lucky
ones, Miss Gromish had no more
idea than the man in the moon
that she would win, when she
registered.
She entered the race for land
with more than 10000 Others
just because it seemed the thing
to do. When a little girl pulled
her name from the mass of en-
velopes she was as much sur
prised as anybody.
She was an assistant to the
land notaries here. When she
saw how eager others were to get
a chance-when she saw them
coming clear from Florida to reg
ister-she decided it never would
do for her to pass up such an OPP
portunity. So two days before
registration closed she entered
her name.
ut Would Be Fun"
She came here five years ago
from Helena, Mont, and since
then has built up a healthy young
business as public stenographer.
She is supporting her mother,
whom she says will go with her
If she decides to cut the life line
here and plunge into the unknown
of homesteading.
II think it would be fun" she
said.
So maybe she'll do It!
Widow Not Afraid.
Doubts as to what she'll do are
not troubling Mrs. Mary E. Nc
Laughlin, widow, and mother of
three grown children, who was
rs in the drawing.
