Washington, April 12.—The army board on ordnances and fortifiea- tions has discovered a pistol which it believes to be the most effective small weapon yet invented. It is not of the revolver pattern, but has a mag- azine. Ata test 116 shots a minute were fired. It can be readily taken to pieces and as readily reassembled. The board has recommended the purchase of 1,000 for distribution among cavalry and artillery regi- ments. The inventor ef the new weapon is a German, and the faetory is in Ber- lin. The weapon is knownas the us automatic pistol.

APRIL 18, ~ COCKRELL FINDS CUBA PROSPEROUS. { | Missouri Senator Savs That he, Encountered Only Three Wieidicants There. HAVANA IS NOW A FINE CITY. He Says That the Island Metropolis is as Clean as Washington, D. C.--- Much Untilled Soil. The Republic Bureau, | 14th St. and Pensylvania Ave. f Washington, April 12.—Senator Cockrell returned Friday morning from a two weeks’ trip to Cuba, on which he was accompanied by his daughter, Miss Marion Cockrell. The senator made a careful study of conditions there, commercially, politically and otherwise. He is not yet prepared to express bis views as to political matters in the island, but talks interestingly of his visit. “Thad a very pleasant trip,” said he to the Republic correspondent, “and visited Havana, Matanzas and Cienfugos. Isaw many of the large sugar plantations and visited the camps of our soldiers near the cities named. I inspected, also, many of the public institutions in Havana and Cienfugos, which have been or- ganized by Governor General Wood, including the hospitals and reform schools for boys and girls. I was especially interested in examining the waterworks of Havana and the old Spanish forts, Morro and Caba- nas. The latter is a marvelous forti- fication and cost the Spaniards nearly $17,000,000. It is a skillful and successful defense and of great interest to visitors and army engi- neers. CLEAN AS WASHINGTON. Havana is now a_ remarkably clean city. It is as clean, in fact, as Washinton. Matanzas and Cienfugos also, are very creditable in this re- spect. The water supply at Havana is unsurpassed. I visited the reser- voir of the these works, some eight or ten miles out in the country. It is a very elaborate affair, making a reservoir wall around an immense spring, and the water is carried from this spring into an aecqueduct run- ring under the river through a tun- nel, which is a perfect piece of engi- neering work. It is carried through the tunnel to the city. It furnishes delightful drinking water and in great abundance. Iwas very much disappointed in finding so much untilled land. Com- paratively, but a small portion of} the soil of Cuba is in actual cultiva- tion. Many products which would undoubtedly flourish there are not even seen or cultivated. It is capa- ble of being made a most productive country for all kinds of fruits and vegetables and for the staples of sugar cane and tobacco. The island has a large number of harbors. From what I ean learn of| our officers who have been in the} various waters around the island there areas many good harbors as there are in all the coast lines of the United States. | NOT ONE DRUNKEN MAN. As to the social conditions in Cuba | one is agreeably surprised by a visit. I did not see a drunken man during all the time I was on the island. The soldiers who were camped some distance from Havana and Matan- zas and Cienfugos were in very com- fortable quarters and in excellent} health. I did not see any soldiers in the cities named, excepting a few of- ficers who were there on business. The people generally seemed to have work to do and were orderly, quiet and polite. I saw no exhibition of | personal animosities between the | Cubans and the Spaniards. } I visited the Cuban club, which fine building, and met many of > members of the club. and then | visited the Spanish club nearby and} was accompanied t | the Cuban club and one or two othe ‘and we were most cordially treated. | The government of the cities is in the In Cien-} = 1 be e president of} v control of thé city\\officials, and now \and then I would isee, especially at the depots inthe ¢ountry districts, members of the Rural Guard. both of which orgenizations are « composed of Cubans, or. at least, residents of the Island. In all my travels through the cities and upomthe island, 1 saw no bes- gars, with the possible exception of two veryold colored men and a Chi- naman, who were on the platform at the stations ready to receive contri- butions. So far as I could judge the| people were well dressed for that cli- mate and had plenty to eat Governor meral Wood seems to have been remarkably succes sful in| Special Sale, THURSDAY, APRIL 2 HANDKERCHIEFS, bringing orderand cleanliness to the | island.” Senator Cockrell will be in ington a montl month or more.

Louisiana, Mo., April 12.—Mrs. Anthony Roy, who lives over on the Sny bottom, discovered the railroad bridge at Tow Head on fire about + o’clock Thursday afternoon. With- out hesitation she waded through a} slough of water over 2 feet, and,} taking a red hood in her hand, start- ed in the direction she thought the first train would come, and in a few minutes succeeded in flagging an ap- proaching passenger train. She had also sent her little daughter up the opposite way to flag any train that might approach from that direction. Her prompt action prevented a frightful wreck and the possible loss of life.
