When Cortez had completed the con- quest of Mexico, the Spaniards, amonga great many other peculiar and extraodi- nary observations which they made in that remarkable country, were particu- larly struck and puzzled by one fact. They noticed that the Aztecs possessed , certain implements, such as knives, dag- gers, ete., made ofiron, but it seemed that only the most distinguished of the: | natives possessed such, thatiron was a | great rarity, and was prized higher than old. v At first the Spaniards believed that the Aztecs extracted the metal in some crude fashion from its ore, abounded in many parts of the country, | but they soon ascertained that this was not the case. They found that not a single smelting furnace existed in the empire, and their surprise was not small when they learned that the Aztecs were totally unacquainted with any method of extracting the iron from the ore, which indeed they had never suspected of any kinship with the highly valued metal. The question whence the Aztecs had procured the little iron they possessed became a perplexing problem to the Spaniards, a problem which they were never able to solve. The natives do not which | seem to have enlightened them much on the subject, for when asked they mysteriously pointed to the sky and in- dicated that they obtained their iron from the regions above. Such asser- tions no doubt the Spaniards received with an incredulous smile, and they con- cluded that the Aztecs received it by way of traffic with some other perhaps more civilized nation, which they sus- pected to exist and kept looking for, north and south, for more than a hun- dred years. It was left to modern science to un- ravel the mystery. The Aztecs were quite correct. The iron of which they had made their implements was not fashioned from materials of this ter restrial globe, but had come to them from the unknown regions of space. Their iron was, in fact, of meteoric origin, like that of the Mayas of Yuca- tan and the Incas of Peru, of which many weapons are still preserved in ool- lections. OVERHEARD TALK. Some Droll Things Dropped in Memory’s Casket by a Boston Editor. The things which one overhears in the horse-cars are unlimited, and often they are very droll, says the Boston Courier. Only mildly diverting was the bit of dialogue overheard the other day. The speakers were two old women, who were cackling away in an animated gos- sip, their meeting evidently being the first for some time. “Well,” observed one, ‘‘I guess Sarah Jones will be surprised when I tell her Iseen you.” . “Land o’ Goshen!” exclaimed the oth- er. “Youdon't mean to tell me that you know Sarah Jones. Well, if that don’t beat all. Why, if you know Sarah Jones you must know pretty nigh every body in this world.” The logic of the observation was not evident, but the tono of admiring won- der in which it was delivered made every hearer feel that in failing to know Sarah Jones he had failed to make his litea success, and that socially he could never be any thing but a most complete fail- ure. And speaking of talk which one over- hears reminds the editor of a bit of worldly wisdom spoken by a countryman on one of the Lake Sebago steamers. | The rustic was talking with a somewhat wizened-up old lady, who was evidently | his mother, and the latter was heard to say to him: “Wall, now, Sam, I don’t think you treated Lucindy just right in the matter. She felt awful bad about it.” “Wall,” the son responded, medita- tively and with an amount of worldly wisdom for which one was not at all pre- pared from such a source, ‘I’m kind o° sorry, but then gals will stand a sight more from fellers than fellers will from gals.” Axd the wrinkled old woman sighed and was silent, as if she felt the impos- sibility of controverting so obvious a proposition and remembered her own youth and the things that had happened to her then. VERY AGGRAVATING. Plaint of a Boston Man Who Does Not f Understand Female Nature. A Boston business man, who is some- thing of acrank, meta Globe man yes- terday afternoon, and, after exchanging a few words about the result of the elec- i] tions, said: ‘‘Did you ever notice what aggravating creatures women are? Or have I been singularly afflicted in hav- ing one of the worst of them for my wife?” “Why, what’s the matter now?” ques- tioned the writer in return. A Scientific and.

Made More Horrible by Recent Improve- ments in Arms. concerning the > Prof. Emil de at the number of llin oneday s an entire war in former blood will never have i On nas long : nal alarm- ist, and most of his published opinions , of the approach and magnitude of the ;coming war have been taken with a grain of salt. Of late, however, the majority of men on the continent who | Write for the magazines on military | subjects have been gradually swinging around to his extreme position, which they formerly ridiculed. The vast superiority of these weapons over all weapons of former times is the basis of recent estimates of experts that | in the next war the losses of the com- batants will be thirty or forty per cent. of the men in active service—that is far more than double the losses of the war of 1870-71. The famous needle gun, with which Germany won her | battles nearly twenty years age, is to-day considered a pretty an- tfuated weapon. With 3s weight of 53¢ kilograms and a caliber of 19 millimeters, it had a range of but 500 meters, hardly one-third of a mile. To- day the French consider a gun with 4 kilograms woight, S millimeters cali- ber and 2,000 meters range somewhat behind the times. The German gun, new twenty years ago, delivered eight shots in the minute. The French gun, already passing out of date, delivers eight shots in twenty seconds. During the next year the German army will be provided with new magazine guns, and the guns which were deadly enough for it five years ago will be laid on the shelf or used asoldiron. Three years ago Austro-Hungary began to introduce modern magazine guns of big caliber among its infantry. During the last year, however, the introduction of the big caliber guns has been given up and guns of small caliber have taken their place. Italy, too, has given her army guns of the latest pattern. Russia alone with her colossus of nearly 900,000 men sticks to the weapons of former days. In a recent issue of Die Nation, a Ger man weekly, Hugo Hintze makes the following prophecy: “The various ‘zones’ in which mod- ern infantry may act are as follows: 1,600-1,000 meters (one mile to three- fifths of a mile), zone of evolution; 1,000-500 meters, first fighting zone; 500-250 meters, zone of increased and hot firing; 250-200 meters, zone of the last firing, whence the decisive volley is fired and the attempt to take by storm is made. The only cover possible for attacking infantry is to be gotten merely by lying flat on the ground dur- ing the firing. Cover, while advancing from position to position, does not ex- ist. The losses of the advancing in- fantry will be encrmous. To cross a field of 800 meters breadth, swept by constantly increasing volleys, reqe@ires of soldiers a degree of moral courage and persistence that in past wars have never been dreamed of. Nor will the losses of the infantry be confined to its operations within the zones described, for, save in a most disadvantageous country, the artillery will be able to sweep the advancing columns with a destructive fire. “The battle of the field artillery will not be less murderous. Aside from small variations among the different kinds of artillery the extreme range of grenades may be stated as 7,000 meters (well over ‘our miles), and the range of shrapnel 5,000 meters. The real duel- ing distance is between 2,000 and 2, meters. A prominent German officer of artillery describes a modern artillery battle thus: ‘It is a battle of life or death, a duel at the end of which one of the principals lies dead on the field. It would be a criminal and inconceiv- able piece of recklessness to enter into such a struggle without utilizing every possible means to victory.’ “I would apply a similar remark to the whole struggle on the battlefield and say: ‘One principal lies dead on the field, the other leaves the field a cripple: “The effectiveness of the siege and fortification guns has been brought to a frightful degree of perfection. The big siege cannons have a range of 10,000 meters. The weight of the projectiles of siege cannons of shorter range runs as high as 175 kilograms. Naval guns and guns of the coast defenses carry shot weighing 1,000 kilograms. No armor, no earthworks can long with- stand the explosive power of these shot. Formerly a fifteen-centimeter grenade was exploded into forty or forty-five pieces; to-day it is torn into 300 to 350 pieces of over ten grains weight and in 800 pieces of one-tenth grain weight, while the smallest pieces of less than one grain weight are thrown with sufficient force to penetrate a plank of two centimeters thickness. No fortifi- cations can be constructed which can long withstand a bombardment with such grenades.” Herr Hintze also speaks briefly of the Zalinsky dynamite gun, although he considers its formidability to be largely curtailed in these times of enormous guns by the shortness of its range. | Where Slavery Still Exists. An Indian woman in the Lahore dis- trict has volunteered to accompany a po- lice officer to Sind, and there promises to point out several other women who have been decoyed away and sold to cul- tivators as slaves. The police authori- ties have sent a police sergeant with the woman to Sind, and have asked the dis- me drop iton my foot; so you can bet that | I was mad clear through.
