THE Great Improvements Will Soon be Made in Small Arras. All armies are now at work trying Constantly to peifoct tho infiUitry arm, and it is probable that sooner or later the automatic rifle will re- place the magai^ine arm. The adoption of protective armor shields by tho field artillery has led to e.xporimonta for the purpose of giving to tlie projectiles of tho in- fantry arm a greaier power of pone- tratiun. To accomplish tliis it has boon proposed to use in the infantry bullet a central steel core, or t(^ make the ogive (pointed end) of steel, or finally to make the entire ball of stool. iLlIorts ai'e also being made to obtain a more powerful powder, which will give a higher miizzlo velocity. None of these pro- jected improvements, howevoi', will interfere in any way with tho eaady adoption of an automatic gun. In view of these probable Improve- ments in the infantry lifio, the ques- tion arises, will Uie maxhiiie gun an,v longer be needed when every man is provided with an automatic gun capable of a very high rate of lire for at least some focands. A small nmnber of men armed with automatic rilles can produce in a given time as great a hail of pro- jectiles us a machine gun. Rut it ia not for this reason that the military world is Inclining to an automatic infantry gun. In choo.'^ing a new arm for the infantry it is a mist;Uie, according to the best authorities, to lay too much stress on RAPIDITY OE FIHK. Tho manufacturers of infantry rifles, like those of automobiles, have fal- len into the error of s'upposing that an increase cf rapidity alone is the basi.s of all progress and improve- ment. The adoption of an autom.atic gun is not engaging tho world's atten- tion because of the pos.sibility of thereby, attaining a prolonged rapid rate of lire, but because it will fur- nish the means of deuAeiing I'apldly a comparatively small number of .shots without taking tho sun from tho shoulder. This will increase the chances of hitting a coiupiu'ativcly .small or a fleeting target at Some distaT'.ce, because the soldier can lire n. Kt-ries of shots without lowering his [)ioce or changing his sight. It is evident, therefore, that along witix the automatic infantry arm, armies can still utilize machine guns for obtaining a continued rapid tiro of long dujation. 15ut there is another diftcrcnco be- tween the two arms, in that the au- tomatic (irearm of tho infantry will ahvavs be a I'gl't allalr, wliilo the machine .gun, because of its nicchan- l.'iin, aOeessoi'ics, tripod, etc., is ne- cess-aiily nujro or less l.eavy. Ia tl;o const,ruction of tho infantry gun tho lirst condition to lie fuKillcd is that of accuracy, and tho ranges to be cons^idercd are prim.arily those at wb.ich comparatixely small tar- gets (skiimishers kneeling or lying down, for example) may bo still so clearly visible as to bo tired on with effort. T!us arm is therefore intended, above Jill, for comaprati vcly short ranges. THE MACHINE GUNS, on the other linnd, aro so construct- ed as to give a prolonged rapid lire, and their cone of iirojectiles is sullicicntly den.se to admit of their eiVectivo uso at i omparatively long dl.stances. .Vccuj'ncy Is Ihercfoio not so iml5ortant, and lienco this arm is better for long range lire than tho infantry rille, and another advantage lies in tho fact that it may be tired oxer our own infantry advancing to tho attack, even on level ground. This (iocs not e.vclude tho uso of the nmchiiie gun at shoit di,-.tanccs, if tho circimistanc es require it, al- tliough in general tho well aimed lire of inftititry armed with an automatic gun is then more eP.'ective. This distinction between long range and short range liie ia not now. Indeed, history proves it to be very oltl. F.von in tho time of l''rederiik tho Great light guns for tiring at longer ranges were attached to tho infantry, niul in several armies since that day si)ecinlly trained marksmen have been utilised the longer ranges. .\t present it is hold that the machine gun will in future actions bo charged with the lire at long range, whi li locent campai.;;ns have s!;own to be so cffe live. Tlio circimi.stanccs in which it will come into piny are Ca.sy to determine. For e.\anii>le, a body of troopa on the defensive shoi.ld force the adver.snry to give up hi.s clo.sc order formjitlons (which facilitate his advance) as early as po.^sibIc, n.Tid should break down the morale of tlio enemy. In both cases tho macliine gim will prove crfeclivo. Moreover, if the defender forces the enemy to open lire prematurely he again guhis an hMrOHTANT ADV.VNTAG E. Here again machine guns would be of uso. In the attack, on tho other han-d, firing at long range may at- tiact tho fli"c from our own troopa advancing In front, which will be on advantage for thsj attnckor, since tho advancing troopa cnn thus mpro readily reach thoir po.sltlon for de- risive action without too great loiw. The cooperation of .several firing lines made po.ssibly by tho uso of uukcbiiie guns for liro at long range, Ir.sue No. 13â€"04.

The Cro of machine guns Is intciu:cd to contribute only indiiflct- ly to tho result, the lire at short ran.gi! l)y infantry being still the only direct <lori^ive element in battle. Tho main use of the machine gunn will be to ponnit tho infantry of tho at- tack to advance more rapidly to the l>rincipal firing position, and from there to attempt to gain tho super- iority of firo. This appears to be I the late.st conclusion of tlie authori- ties on the subject. THE SNUTER. Grant. â€" "Do you know anything that's good for a cold?" Grimes.â€" "Do I know anything?
