SLIVER OF RAIL SHOWS
RIFLE DEMONSTRATION
J. Benn, an employee of the govern
ment railroad, wanted to demonstrate
the penetrating power of his rifle the
other day and calling attention of the
bystanders to what he was about to
do, took a shot at a thin section of a
rail. He claimed that the bullet would
bore a hole in the rail, and it did.
Something else happened, however.
In describing the affair to the doctor,
Benn said:
“And the instant I pulled the trig
ger, something hit me right between
the eyes, and I thought the bullet had
bounced back and l was a gonner.”
Investigation showed that a small
sliver of the rail had flown back. It
weighed about three grains and hit
Bonn's forehead so hard that it pene
trated the skull.

RUSSIA DETERMINED TO PREVENT
DISORDERS, COSSACKS IN CAPITAL

(Hv Anaociatcd I’rcaa DiupMch)
PETROGRAD, July 18.—For the first time since the,
revolution armed Cossacks are patrolling the streets of
I ‘etrograd in force today. Companies carry machine guns
strapped to the saddles of lead horses and warn all that
order must be preserved.
Soldiers and members of the council of the new body
of soldiers, workmen, and peasants of all Russia are deter
mined to maintain order at home, saying that the disturb
ances within are equal to stabbing the army in the back.
The Cossack patrol was ordered out following the dis
turbance in the Nevsky Prospect yesterday when armed
sailors created a panic by firing rifles into upper windows
and roof tops of adjacent buildings.
