‘EASY MURDER' TAUGHT WOMEN IN GUN SCHOOL French Wives Learn Secret of Marksmanship in Montmarte Galleries. Bp Unit™ Pres* PARIS, April 17.—Montmartre Is about to introduce another novelty into its famous network of streets. The novelty is to be a series of new shooting galleries for women only with the slogan written above them, “Homicide Made Easy,” or “Every Wife Her Own Sharpshooter." It is reported that, instead of revolving balLs, the rows of pipes and rabbits, and the little Jet of water on which an aluminum fish Is balanced in the old shooting galleries at fairs and city amusement parks, the new galleries will be equipped with the silhouettes of men, standing, sitting, lying down, and in every conceivable pose both relaxed and tense. Husband Is “Bullseye" There will also be silhouettes which will have a superficial resemblance to practically every type of husband so that the woman may take her choice as to the one that most resembles her spouse. Vital spots are to be marked with the letter X for sure aim. Learning to handle a pistol has become the vogue in Paris and the women are going at the business of a perfect aim with seriousness. The new shooting galleries are fitted out with a complete assortment of firearms, including rifles, revolvers, and a section labelled “Tirage Amerlcaln,” is a sub machine gun set up on a tripod at the level of a woman’s shoulder. The manager of one of these establishments says that he does not anticipate much rifle and machinegun trade because the French woman is conservative. She does not readily take to novel methods. “Later perhaps,” he added, “she will take up the machine-gun and grenade. Today the revolver is her favorite.” Award Diplomas There will be a professor of shooting in charge and several methods of husband-potting will be taught, Including the premeditated murder, with long careful aim, or the more snappy “crime passione” which requires a quick shot and unsteady hand. The professor will teach the use of the Maxim silencer for rare cases and an extra charge will be made for the instruction. j Fees are reported to .be reasonable, however, and the length of the course, according to one professor, “depends on the temperament of the pupil. Also on the number of bullets fired.” Diplomas will be awarded those who pass their final examinations, stamped with guarantees to unmarried as well as married women, for success in their enterprise. In round figures, the cost of the course will amount to $lO. A dog’s nose is kept cool by the continual evaporation of moisture secreted by the nasal gland.
