ARM0R PIERCING SHELLS.
They Proved Their Superiority Over
the Gathmann Explosives.

The late Louis Gathmann, the inven-
tor, who died at the age Of seventy
four years, labored long and hard and
with zeal aud enthusiasm TO bring
about the development of the high ex-
plosive she'll which bore his name
Ii was Mr.. Gathmann's belief that il
was not necessary 10 carry the high
explosive shell through armor plate
and into the interior Of n ship, but that
If sufficient quantity were detonated
against the outside Of ship It would
be equally II not more destructive.
He secured from congress an appro-
priation for an eighteen inch gun capa-
bic of throwing a shell containing 500
pounds OF guncotton. Our army and
navy officers held that the only effec-
tive shell would he one of the arnor
piercing type provided with delayed
action fuse, which would burst the
she'll back of the armOr.
Both types were tested at Sandy
Hook about a score OF years ago. The
armor piercing shell penetrated an
eleven inch plate aud tore the backing
to pieces. The Gathmann shell burst
against the face Of the plate, but failed
TO do more than dent It in the earlier
rounds, finally cracking II In two In
the last round The superiority of the
armor piercing shell was thus estab-
lishcd.-Los Angeles Times.

for "A period Of little more than two
years during the Napoleonic wars Cor.

eve. the island fell into British hands,
and George Ill. formally accepted the
crown of Corsica, appointing Sir George
Elliott as British viccroy and allowing
the Corsicans to retain their legislative
assembly. In 1876 the activity of the
French navy in other parts of the
Mediterranean resulted in sudden
decision of the British government to
withdraw from the island The eyacu-
alton was completed ON Oct &c of that
year, and Corsica reverted TO France.

STORY or A FORCED LOAN.
The Way Zapata Gave the Bankers Of
Mexico Two Surprises.

One morning Zapata, the Mexican
leader, issued Two proclamations. One
was a prohibition edict closing the
saloons, the other command for the
bankers OF the city TO assemble for a
conference.
The bankers attended the meeting.
They went In fear, dreading contisca-
ton of their deposits Only few
days before the armies of General
Carranza had collected a forced loan"
OF 100000 pesos from the banks.
What mercy could be expected of the
bandit leader? Zapata's speech was
short and TO the point
"Caballeros," he said my men are
hungry. want 10000 pesos to feed
them for a few days You will pay
this. ] promise You protection. You
may carry on your business without
molestation as long as you do not aid
the enemy, You may 80 when you
sign The order for the money"
Thankful to escape with such mod
est demand. the bankers did as they
were ordered. zapaia kept HIS part OF
the bargain, and for months the city
was better policed than It has ever
been since porlrio Diaz was driven
from Mexico. But this is the strange
part of the story-strangc to one who
knows the system of con1scatlon which
has bled the business men of the cOun-
try:

10000 esos.-ChriStian Herald.

THE FAMILY LIFE.
.ts Normal Restraints Make Man the
Master of Himself.

Master of Himself.
Modern assailants Of the family sup
pose that by destroying it they can
cmancipate the individuals who com
pose it. In their delirium they con-
ceive that the goal of life is the throw
ing off of all restraints, says William
Roscoe Thayer in IIarper's Magazine.
Nothing could be wore mistaken.
Normal restraints those which build
up man and make him master of him.
self, are really the means by which he
gets his true freedom. A little water
in boiler will generate enough steam
to run locomotive; the same volume
on the ground is puddle and no more.
Discipline is the barrel of the gun,
the rudder of the ship. The same law
applies to human beings, and such an
institution as the family has proved
itself Indispensable to the highest de.
velopment of its members.
The man who thinks that by casting
off its ties he gets large freedom
deceives himself. Al lA.st he ex-
changes higher plane for lower and
secures whatever privileges that de-
scent implies. He retreats toward the
plane of the beast, out of which it has
been mans mission to rise and climb.
