U. S. ARMOR-PIERCING BIMBEATS«M

Shot Pierces Hardened Steel Jacket Worn By Soldiers In Trenches, and Does Much Damage.

A German sniper* lay behind his Shield of quarter-inch hardened steel *nd smiled when a bullet from a vigilant British sniper cracked against the protection. When the next shot came, his smile faded.

After dark he crawled painfully back to his trench line, shot through the left shoulder. In the shield \vaa a neat round hole. From the German's shoulder the surgeons took a bullet of solid steel, boat-shaped, with sharp point and tapered tail, says Popular Science.

Inside the British bullet, with lta customary mild Bteel jacket and Inside a coating of lead, there lay a miniature bullet of steel, which had gone through the supposed bulletproof shield.

Fired from the British run the mild steel jacket and the lead covering of the steel bullet inside, yielded enough to take the rifling of the barrel, and the bullet flew through the air like any other bullet. When it struck steel, the leaden covering spattered into a spray of molten lead and the bullet traveled on alone through tbe steel plate.

This is the principle of the armorpiercing bullet, common among the fighting armies of the world.

The corresponding American bullet

superior to any of the armour piercers made abroad. The American bullet has the jacket cut away from the last eighth of an tnch at the point, exposing the soft toad. This in turn smashes down on striking, changing the shape of the point and making the bullet "bite" on the hard. Inclined surface. Then the hard steel bullet within comes smashing through, while the lead and the Jacket fly off. The actual damage is done by the little steel bullet Inside.

HELD ON THEFT.

Georpre Scheilthart, 16 years old, Thomas Elpres, 15, and Raymond Knapp, 16, all of Evansville, are being held in jail here on charges of grand larceny. It is sail the Scherkhart boy stole his father's five-passenger automobile and with the two other lads drove it here.

The trno was arrested at Seventh and Hulman street at 1 o'clock Friday afternoon by Patrolman Sylvester Doyle, who made the catch as the boys were driving Into the city. "When searched at headquarters, $126 was found in the possession of the Scherkhart boy.
