Death from Gun-Shot Wounds.

Brig. Gen, George It. .Sternberg, surgeon general of the army, has inserted In his annual report some interesting comment* on comparisons of gunshot wounds received by American soldiers in the Spanlsh-Amerlenn and Philippine wars with wounds indicted by the heavier bullets used In the Civil War. The deduction drawn from comparative records is that the small caliber bullet of today is Icos deadly than the old-time musket ball. _ Patronize those Who advertise.
