Nanking, the ancient capital of China,

ROCK SALT FOR MOBS
BETTER THAN LEAD BULLETS
BAYS SIR HIRAM MAXIM.

It has been suggested that some
tiling loss deadly than leaden bulloU'
should be used by our troops against!
riotors. It has been suggested that
bullets might bo made, of sawdust!
and grease, but this Is altogether lm
praotlcablo, as suoh bullets would sim

Tho suggestion is, however, a good'
one, inasmuoh as it sets one thinking
on a subjoct that wo shall have
faoe very shortly.
Tho ordinary military rifle is m
very poworful woapon. It has been;
designed for killing at very long"
range, nnd It is quite possible that un
der favorable circumstances at short
rango tho samo bullet might pass
'through 20 mon.
Disorderly, murderous mobs are
constantly Increasing in numbers, and!
eaoh riot is florcor and more deter

it There is bound to bo a greater
number of thom in tho futuro, whiohi
we shall Jinve to deal with, whother
we llko it or not, thoreforo I hold!
that wo should mako a study of the,
subject and provido and use the best
ipossiblo arms for tho purpose.

single moment that largo and turbu

In Liverpool, and who fight like d
mons, can bo subdued without tho'
loss of Bomo life. Somo loss Is In
evitable, but let it be as small as pos
sible and lot us, at least, attempt to
avoid doing injury to any excopt thoset
who arc actually making war upon;
tho soldiers or police.
Suppose tho officer In command hadl
400 soldiers opposed, wo will say, to
0,000 hooligans, and strikers. It)
would bo best to, arm, .about200ofi
them with very large bore, single-)
barrel shotguns, having rather short)
barrels, and these should bo provld-1
ed with cartridges of the ordinary
type; but, Instead of lead shot, they

Another, hundred of tho soldier
should be armed with the same kindir '

loaded with a small charge of black
powder and a very largo chorgo of
buokshot Theso shot would not kill

they would bo fatal.
With these 800 guns tho prowdl
could in all probability be kept tit sy.
Of course the buckshot would not be)
used until the salt had failed. Then,
again, if the attack was very violent
the wholo 800 guns could be worked
with buckshot. Sir Hiram Maxim, in

uourgo uoruon uaiwe ioia inemem-v
hsva of the New York I'olloe Lieuten-j
lanU Benevolent association, assem
bled In monthy meeting at Terraoe
Garden, that It-was no new thlngtfor
,the populace of a dty to register
'kicks against tho police force. To
show how anclont this custom was,
.he quoted the .prophet Isaiah's arraign
iment of tho police force of his day;
-where ho said: "Yet, they are greedy
dogs which can never have enough,
and they are shepherds that oannotf
understand: thoy all look to thoir own
"way, overy one for hl gain, from hi
.quarter."
Mr. Battle had volunteered.to enter
tain tho police lieutenants Tritk-n&d

of tho English police system. H
traoed tho courso of tho polloemant
from tho vlgllos of tho Emperor Aui
eustus down through tho watchmen ofi
England, not noglccting to touch on)
tho cstimablo Constable, .Dogberry
Whloh led him to concludo with' tho
thought that though the members of
tho Now York polioo force wero but
human, as a body tho forco had reo-
ognlzod its obligations and lived up
to them.
Long time to Qet to the Bridge.
A sclontlst attached to tho Museum)
of Natural History in Now York, a
most unsophisticated man, was ono,
evening enjoying a brisk walk in the1
vicinity of tho park on his way home)
when ho encountered a forlorn look-,
lng woman scantily clad and weep
ing. Tho scientist's heart was touohed,
as ho stopped to boo what ho could
do for tho unfortunate. "I want to
go to tho Brooklyn brldgo," explained
tho woman, "and 1'vo loat my way."
Tho gentleman supplied sympathy.

brldgo, togotbor with a liberal amount
of oo r faro.
Soma time later a similar inaidr')t
