Bow ard Arrow in War.

AS weapon of warfare. the bow
died hard. Firelocks were introduced
into England in 1446. and a quarter az
century later. when Edward w
landed at Ravensburgh castle, he had
among his troops 500 Flemings armed
with "hange gunnes." The fact is
nevertheless indiSputable that as late
as the reign Of Henry VIII English
faith in the long yew bow and the
clothyard shaft displayed little sign
OF being shaken. The Guyenne expcdi-
ton of 1912 was half composed OF
archers, and F'lodden was victory OF
the English bowmcn. Indeed, IS late
rs 1881 the practice of archery was

iEere were actually Russian troops
armed with this by no means ineffec-
tive weapon.

New York, Dec. 26.--Avan Ruck- onen of 5903 Third avenue, Brooklyn is only five feet and five inches tall and weight but 40 pounds but he drank some powerful liquor early yesterday morning and then gave five policemen a terrific battle. Magistrate O'Neill in the Fifth avenue court held him in $S,000 bail for further ex- animation. Nj
 Ruckonen started by assaulting Pa trolman Otto Tietjen of the Fourth avenue precinct, the police say. Tiet- jen was about to stop an automobile that had no tail light when Ruck- onen jumped on his back, took his club away and banged his over the eye with it, knocking him down. He then began to kick the policeman with great enthusiasm and Patrolman Joseph Gordon of Traffic A, on his way home. went to his comrades as- sistance.

PUNCHED ON NOSE,
 SKULL FRACTURED
Main St. Business Man. in Hospi-
 tai, Friend Under Arrest

James Pope, of 20 Myrtle street i' held in bonds of s2,boo as the result of an altercation he is alleged to have had with Philip White of Meriden in the Edwards Clothes Shop at 29s Main street, late Saturday afternoon White Is at the New Britain General hospital with a possible fracture of the skull. and for time grave fears were entertained for his recovery. Al the hospital today 1t was stated that he was somewhat improved though his condition is still considered seri- ous.
 Pope was placed under arrest by Sergeant George J. Ellinger and Po- liceman Patrick McAvay and at the time he was booked on a charge of assault and breach of peace but later when the case took on more serious aspect, the police decided to hold Pope without bail, and he occupied a cell in the police station until ar- raigncd In police court yesterday morning before Judge c. w. Klett He was represented by Judge w. r. Mangan, and following a plea of not guilty, the case was continued until next Monday.
 White, the injured man, and Ed ward Goldstein are partners in the store where the alleged affair took place. Pope has been friend of Goldstein, both rooming at the Hotel Grand on Myrtle street. Pope, it is claimed by the police, often visited Goldstein at his store and during busy time assisted in the capacity of clerk.
 About o'clock Saturday afternoon Pope appeared at the store and wait ed on customers, going out and re- turning several times. About [ o'clock, it was said, it was seen that he had been drinking and he was called to the rear of the store by White who. it is alleged, said: Come on out, you're good fellow, I'll kiss you" This display of affection, it is claimed, riled Pope, wherupon he is alleged to have struck White in the face. The latter cried for help, and Goldstein and clerk, on entering a rear room, found him bleeding from the nose. The police were summoned, and Pope was taken into custody. A short time later White collapsed in the store and he was rushed to the hospital.

COUNT OF NATIONS
 WEALTH TO BEGIN
Research Of All Communities Of
 Nation Required

Washington, Dee. 26.-The decen- nial determination by the Census bureau of the wealth of the people of the United States. what taxes they pay and the amount of their public debts, state. county and city and other subdivisions permitted to issue securities, will be started Jan. 1. or fleials said today their plans were virtually complete for the work which, 1t is expected, will be accom- plished in about six months.
 Much interest attaches to the census of the public debts. because of the move for a constitutional amend meat prohibiting the further issue of tax-exempt bonds and because the length to which the sale of tax exempt securities has gone is not definitely known.
 Treasury officials have said that the continued issue of tax-exempt securities has forced much higher federal tax rate, because of the ten dency of large taxpayers to invest in that form of securities.
 Efforts will be made to establish the cost 10 the American people as a whole of the continued issue of tax free bonds.
 Officials pointed out that the new issues of tax-free bonds had come at a time when the federal government was increasing it's own debt and. taxes at a rate unequalled in the nations history. The federal government consequently, it was said, had been forced to pay higher interest rates and raise it's taxes to unprecedented fie- ures.
 Collection of the data by the cen sus bureau is regarded as one of it's ardest tasks, second only to the cen- sus of population. The bureaus rep resentatives must go into every county in the union and in some instances will have to search records of schooi and road districts as we'll as the files of other local authorities.

PLAN TO IDENTIFY
 MFR ROUGE SLAYERS
Claim Is Made That Hooded Kidnap- pers Lifted Masks, Disclosing
 Identity.

Bastrop, La, Dec. 26.-Secret serv- ice men who have worked on the case several months said shere today the state would be able to identify several members of the masked mob Which last August kidnapped five Mer Rouge residents, including Watt Dan iels and Thomas Richards, whose de- capitated bodies were taken from a nearby lake last week.
 A farmer will testify at the open hearing, ordered by Governor Parker to begin January 5, that he witnessed the seizure and spiriting away of the quintet and recognized some of the abductors when they lifted their hoods to drink water they had forced him to get for them. the investigators said. The farmer was held up by the band on the Mer Rouge -Bastrop high way, it was said, and sent for water by the thirsty men.
 The investigators declined to dis close the witness's whereabouts, but it was intimated that he is somewhere in Mississippi under protection of a federal officer.
 Plans for the open hearing here will be formulated at 8 conference in New Orleans next Thursday of those conducting the inquiry. The coroner's inquest over the bodies of Daniels and Richards and the report of the New Orleans pathologists who conducted the autopsy will be discussed.
 Christmas dinners were served to the troops stationed here and at Mer Rouge. Officers of two companies of militia here and newspapermen were entertained at a dinner given by the chief of the department of justice forces conducting the investigation here
