Marine Rifles Used
In Milan Matches
Prove Superiority

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. THE
victory of the United States rifle
team, which succeeded in defeating
teams from other nations compel
ing in the international rifle
matches, recently concluded at MI
Ian, Italy, is largely attributed to
the model Of rifle used by the Amer
lean riflemen in the matches.
The rifle is of the Springfield reg
ulation type, to which certain i'm
provements were added by the
United States marines.
The new model has an ex-
ira heavy barrel and a new type
Of palm rest, especially designed
to support the weight of the rifle
and aio the marksman in retaining
a steady hold. 1t has an adjustable
sling swivel, a front sight attach
ment in which various sights may
be fitted, and a shoulder-hook, which
holds the butt of the rifle close to
the shoulder. The latter innovation
was adapted from the old Scheutzen
rifle.
Ten rifles were fitted with the
new devices by the United States
marines at their workshop on South
Broad street, this city, and forward
ed to Quantico,> Va, where try-outs
for the Milan matches were con-
Quoted. The new models met with
instant favor. and were taken to
Milan by the American riflemen. It
is believed the new model aided
greatly in securing the final vic
tory, and especially in helping to
defeat the Swiss riflemen who for
a long time were invincible in in
ternational matches.

Chinese of Honan
Province Pray for
Rain and Get It

CHICAGO, Oct. TEN thousand
Christian Chinese troops and thous-
ands of other Chinese, both Christian
and non-Christian, gathered in Hon
an province in a moster open-air
prayer meeting for rain, according to
representatives Of the Methodist
Episcopal church, working in China.
Continued droughts during the
spring and early summer in Honan
province aroused fears among the
Chinese people of a return Of famine
and whole villages went on pilgrim
ages to the temple of the rain god
in Yu Tao He valley to pray for
rain.
Major General Feng Yu Hsiang,
member of the Asbury Methodist
Episcopal church, of Picking, and
commander of the Eleventh division
Of the Chinese army, sent out an in
vitation to all Christians to meet
with his troops in prayer for rain.
A grand review Of the Eleventh
division was held. The national
anthem was sung, and an address
was given and General Fend prayed
that the sins Of the Honan people
be visited upon his head and the
punishment of drought be lifted.
It happend that two hours after
the meeting closed a heavy rain fell,

The prosecution, relying largely
on the testimony Of RAYMOND Cole,
young mountaineer, now serving a
life sentence for the actual killing
of Mrs. McKennon was dealt Sc
we're blow when Cole, bruoght from

listed between them. The following extract

ashamed to declare and to prove your

Unknown Crook Believed to
Have Large Organization
in England Scotland Yard
Is Helpless

LONDON, Oct. IA Napoleon
has been reborn in London--a Ma
polean Of crime.
Great jewel robberies have been
the outstanding features Of this Lon
don season, robberies so huge that
Scotland Yard itself admits that
these robberies are the work of a
naster-mind, super-crook.
Newspapers are likening this su-
per-crook to Prof. Moriarty-Conan
Doyle's famous fiction character.
Scotland Yard sleuths have al
ready named the unknown super
thief ''Moriarty." They are fully
convinced that he is at the head
Of an international protective or
ganization of crooks. which plans
burglary, safe-breaking and jewel
stealing on an unprecedented scale.
"Moriarty," they say. has a town
house and a country house, fleet
Of motor cars, and host Of friends,
straight and crooked, in London's
best society. They do not know
what Moriarty looks like. He may
be a lord, for all they know, but
they are convinced that he is a man
high in society.
J. w. Bell, one of London's lead
ing assessors, claims to know the
man, but dares not give him away.
All he will say is that "Morlarty'
is the financier and brains OF the
thieves who work for him.
Women Agents
"Moriarty," Bell claims, has WON
en- agents as well as men-some OF
them, he declares, are titled. They
/ will watch an intended victim for
months, trail him across continents,
work their way into his homes as
maid servants or confidanteS, until
the time is ripe to strike. 49,.
Detectives declare that in all the
latest big jewel hauls the victims
have been Swallowed for months.
Here are a few Of the big "jobs''
which have taken place this season:
Mrs. J. Byrne. an American, rob-
bed of 100000 worth Of jewelry.
Business mans wife robbed OF
$4,000 worth of jewels in a big
hotel.
World famous collection of gold
coins stolen from the Albany apart
ments, London.
Theft Of thirty pearl necklaces
from fashionable jewel store.
Robbery of 100 gold snuff boxes
and ruby set goblets from house
on the Brighton road.
In no case has there been any
trace of the missing valuables.
Usually in the case of common
criminals, at least part Of the
booty turns UP here or on the con-
tinent."
New Coups Daily
Every day the newspapers ban
ner-head jewel hauls. Recently two
women, said to be agents of
"Moriarty," walked Unto q jewelry
store and asked to be shown a gold
bag. When the bag was produced
the two girls, both of whom were
pretty and sty1ishly dressed, asked
The shop assistant to weigh the
bag. The young. man retired to the
back of the shop, and the girls
calmly put their hands through thz
partition separating the window
from the shop and scooped UP two

u. S. Laboratory
At Townsville
To Study Insects

TOWNSVILLE, Ga, Oct. 7.-Of
much interest to pecan growers in
this section is the fact that Thomas
vile is to be the location for a pecan
insect laboratory. Information as to
the coming here of this laboratory
has been received from the bureau
of entomology and plans are being
made already for it.
It will be in charge of a specialis;
and important Investigations will be
made Of all insects that attack the
pecan, and it is expected to be Of
invaluable aid in the eradication #
such insects as are in the habit of
attacking either the nuts or the
trees.
AS the center of the pecan belt Of
this section Thomasville is admirably
located for this work, and it will be
watched with great interest. 1t is
understood that the work will be in
charge of man of much experience
from the department of agriculture
and it will probably be located at
the state experiment farm here.
