RAPID FIRING GUNS.
Hurling a Tornado of Death Into the
Ranks of the Enemy.
Since the Introduction of the modern
quick firing gun and the perfection of
"time" shrapnel and high explosive
shells new and scientific methods of
rapid firing have been developed. When
a rapid and overwhelming fire is
wanted, the ranse is found, and the
ground within the limits of the pre
scribed area is swept from end to end
with a tornado of fire.
In the French army this is called a
rafale (a squall or gust). It Is a series
of eight rounds per gun, each two
rounds being laid to burst 100 yards
farther than the last, thus sweeping
an area of say 400 yards with a rain
of shrapnel or a devastating series of
high explosive shells. "Sweeping" fire
Is a series of three rounds per gun, one
in the original line, one to the right
and one to the left. This Is also, and
significantly, called "mowing." A. fur
ther combination is called "search and
sweep."

battery stood near his guns and shout
ed commands to his gunners. Today
the artillery officer may be two or
three miles nwny directing operations
by telephone from an observation post
In view of the enemy's works. The
observatory may be a ruined house, a
tree trunk, a shell crater or a haystack,
and from this point he observes the
accuracy of the fire of his battery and
telephones Instructions to the gunners
In the rear, altering the range when
necessary and communicating any en
emy movements, so that the sheila soon
find a new mark.
Instruments of precision nnd careful
calculations are of course necessary to
fight a battery In this manner, many
allowances having to be made for the
difference in height, distance and angle
between the battery commander and
the guns under his charge.—Exchange.
TWINS AND A WEDDING.
Simple Method of Solving ■ Matri
monial Problem.
The late Colonel Anstruther Thom
son in his "Eighty Years' Reminis
cences" tells the story of a remarkable
marriage.
Of the many quaint "characters"
whom Colonel Anstruther Thomson
met In the hunting field none captlvato
the imagination like the brothers Lea
mon of Ivybridge—"two thin, delicate
looking old men, twin brothel's, sev
enty-two years old, with white hair,
very gentle and courteous in manner,
red cutaway coats, white cords, black
boots, caps and gloves; most respect
able and nothing slangy about them;
they are so alike you can hardly tell
them apart."
When past sixty years of age one
night after hunting one of them said
to the other:
"I have been thinking neither of us
can have much longer to live in this
world, and It will be a terrible thing
for the survivor to have to remain here
alone. Don't you think one of us ought
to marry 1"
"Yes," was the reply, "I have
thought so for a long time."
"Weil, do you know of any lady?"
"Yes,; I do. Is there any one you
fancy?"
On comparing notes It appeared they
had both selected the same woman,
the manageress of the hotel at Oke
hampton.
"Weil," said one, "we have lived to
gether all these years without a wry
word, and it's a pity we should fall out
at our time of life."
So they tossed up which should mar
ry her. The winner rode down to Oke
hampton next morning and was ac
cepted. All three lived together, and
the wife nursed both brothers In their
last Illness and was left their money.

HITLESS BASEBALL
Remarkable Record That Wu Mada
by Cy Young In 1904.
The prond record fot pitching con
secutlve innings of hltless baseball is
held by no less a personage than the
Hon. Denton Tecumseh Young of
blessed baseball memory. Mr. Young,
better known as "Cy." is the holder of
several records In unusual feats in the
pitching Una
It was back In April, 1004, that
Young proceeded to shatter all figures
in this line, and before ha got through
he had created a new record in hurling
hltless ball and one which stands to
day clean cut and without a spot or
blemish and without a doubt the great
est piece of pitching the game ever
witnessed.
On April 30 against the Washington
team Young took Winter's place In the
third Inning, no one out, and pitched
out the game, retiring the ner.t twenty
one batsmen In order. Young's next
game took place May B against the
Athletics. Cy pitched the best game
of his long and honorable career that
day and retired twenty-seven of those
famous swatsmen of Connie Mack In
a row. In a game against Detroit on
May 11 Denton T. pitched his famous
fifteen inning 1 to 0 game against the
Tigers, and In the first seven Innings
Young set them down without a base
hit
This would give Cy twenty-three
Innings of hltless ball, or, In other
words, as far as the records show, six
ty-eight batsmen stepped to the plate
and were retired In succession. In that
same period the big Ohloan pitched
forty-eight consecutive Innings where
in his opponents failed to get a run
across the plate. After his great no
hlt-no run game against the Athletics
he pitched fifteen Innings of runless
ball, as mentioned, against the Tigers
with Ed Killlan opposing him. It was
a battle royal, and the clever KlUlaa
met defeat by a score of 1 to 0.—New
York Sun.
