It was amaziug to se6 Mr. Maxim fire time and again into the sand in the targat and to listen in vain for the oxpeotad detonaton of the rifle— doubly ec after one’s ears had been assailod by the unsilenced ‘explosion of the Winchester eays Harper's Weaekly. The sonnd prodoped —the combination of that made by the liammer striking the target aud the bullet's pnssage and impact into the sand—in no mauner resembles rifle fire. That is all the sonnd that was to be heard, even when the inventor dissharged a Spriogfield, the new United States army rifie, which ie believed to be the best and the most powerful in the world The Spring field bullet has an initial veloclity of about 2700 feet a recond, and, when fired under normal conditions, produces an impact upon the ear that is distressivg to a civilian, But with the silencer attached to tho muzzle the Sprivgefild is abont as noigy as a knife thrust into a potato That the silencer actually catches and subdues the gases produced by the explosion, so that the faiut sound that remains is in nowise due to the explosion of gases which {8 the caunse of the denotation that ocours when a gun is discharged was iugenoously shown by the inventor. He held a card in front of the muzzle of a rifle barrel which had the silencer attach ed. 1t passed through as cleanly and gracefully as though it had been fired from a distance. Then, with the gilancar removed, Mr. Maxim fired again, The card and the contriv ance which held it were blown to fragments by the force of the gases. This is the maunner in which thol new invention works As soon nu} the gases produced by the explo sion of the powder enter the silencer from the barrel of the gun they en counter the spiral chambers in the in terior of the tube and are set whirl ing at great speed. The _tendency of whirling bodles is centrifugal—that is to say,they fly out from the center, a8 hias been discoverad by all who have hidden in the Maxim ‘‘flying mnchines'’ at amusement parks, which are operated upon this prin ciple. luasmuch as the only means of oxit from the silencer is near the center of the end portion, the gases are unable to effect their escape until they have slowed down sufficiently to have overcome their ocentrifugal teudency. When they emerge, therefore they are proceeding at a speed so much rednoed that the shosk to the atmosphere and the waves of sound which fmpinge upon the ear are #o reduced as to become almost inaudible. THIRTY VEINS OF COAL PENETRATED BY DRILL The diamond drill used in the work of exploring the Oasemoent es tate, southwest of Florence, has passed through thirty veins of conl, mensurivg in thickness from a fow fnches to several feet. It can not be learned tolay to what depth the drill bored into the ground, but it cortainly wans deeper than any other prospocting that has been fn this part of the country, The Onsoment ostuto oconsists of 960 acres and s owned by the helrs of the original owners. It is sald that the Oanon City Ooul company, which secured Ilm:lunw about one yoar ago, has agrood to pay some thing like SIOO,OOO for the land when it finally passes into tholr ownporship. While some of the veins ontered nre large enovgh to work, the majority of them are small and unworkable, At this writing the company, of which B. F. Rockafellow of Oanon Oity is president, is getting ready to open a mine and it is thought that within the next few months, or by next fall at least, coal will be gent to market from the new prop erty. LIBRARY COMMITTEE FAVOR A REST ROOM A committee of ladies representing the Public Library board has been at work the past faw days, d(ngrlbntlug to all ths business honses of town oards of invitation to the pablio to avail themsolves of tho privileges of the Librarv. A special invitation is given to strangers in town and out of town shoppers to make use of the Library as a reading and rest room during their hours of waiting in town, and to young people to come to the Lib rary to spend their evenings. When the work is complated these oards of invitation will be not only in all the business houses of Klor ence, but in the camps and noigh bor ng towns as well Auny plan that tends to extend the usefallness of the Library is cordinlly supported by the citizens of Florence, a8 evidenced by the enthusiastic patronage which the Kirmess received. Merchants es pecially are commenging favorably upon the efforts made by the Library board to supply the need of a rest room in town. 1t is to be regretted that the Lib rary is not more centrally located, and is not open continuously through out the day and evening. } Such conditions will be remedied ‘nn goon as the people generally rea lize the desirability of a different order of things, and are willing and able to supply the means necessary to that end. . ANNUAL MEETING OF IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE One week from yesterday, Friday March sth, at 8 p. m. will be held tho regular annuval meotiog of tho Oivie Improvement League. This meeting is for the election of oflicers for the ensuing year, for hearing re ports of officers and committees on the work of the year now closing,and for the outlining of plans of work for the coming year.
