Successful Test of Tailor Dowo's
Groat Invention.
WITHSTOOD A STORM OF BULLETS.
The Inventor, Cm In lilt Mysterious
tlarmeut, Heslsted ll'ul'leli,' Fired by the
New Oeriimn Army Hlfle, That Hail
Pierced a llloek of Build Oak.
Deklik, April 11. Expert in mllltnry
(tflnlrs, not only In this city, but through
out Europe, nro discussing the recent ex
periments ninilo with the bullet proof
cont Invented by Herr Dowe, the Man
helm tullor. There seems to bo no lotiRcr
nny doubt tbnt Dowe's Invention Is it most
valuable one. The Russian ambassador
fired two shots at the tailor while he wiu
encased In his bullet proof coat, and Dowe
sustalued absolutely no Injury.
The experiments before Count Von
Scltouvololl were not confined to simply
firing two shots at Dowe. They begun
with o thorouith test of the new rifle In
use in the German nrmy. From a box of
cartridges ono was selected ut random,
the rlilo Whs loaded and was then firod at
a block of solid oak, which was pierced
by the small, steel like bullet. This
showed that the rifle and cartridges were
of the regulation pattern anu well cah
culated to test the value of the most effici
ent steel cuirasses ever manufactured,
much less u "bullet proof" coat. In fact
It was stilted before the experiments com.
meuced that no armor was ever manufac
tured which could withstand a shot from
the rifle now in uso lu tho army of tier
manv. After the shoUnt the block of oak Dowo
dressed himself in his bullet proof coat
nnd offered himself as a target. While the
rifle was being aimed at tho tailor the
spectators were strung to an extremo state
of nervousness, and Instinctively closed
their eyes in anticipation of Beelng Dowe
killed on the spot. But after the report
nf lh rifle rnmr out and the tailor was
seen standing, apparently unhurt, there
was n feeling of immense relief unioug
every one present. Dowo Immediately no
ticed the stnto of oxcltement produced by
the experiment, for he smiled, much to
the relief of the onlookers, and saldt "I
feel nothing." A second shot was tneu
flred directly at the tailor's heart, but it
had tho same effect as the first. The tailor
was absolutely unhurt, and both bullets
wore found imbedded In the bullet proof
coat which covered his breast and uouy,
The military officers who were present
expressed themselves as thoroughly con
vinced of the effectiveness of the bullet
proof coat, which scenisi likely to make an
entirely new departure in the history of
modern warfare.
Then commenced a second series of ex
periments, which wert eVen'more Interest
ing than the first. A horse was covered
with a bullet nroof coat, for it is proposed
that the cavalry of the future Is to be pro
tected bv this wonderful material. In this
cose a number of shots Were fired in quick
succession at tho animal, while It was
nnlotlv eating oats from a manger. The
horse: a, Well trained cavalry mount,
started slightly at the first 'shot, appar
ently, howeyer, only disturbed by tho un-"
expected report oi tne nne. xnen oiner
shots' were flred as quickly as possibles
some of them striking almost in tne same
place a previous bullets, but tne horse
contlnueu eating as u noming oxxraorai.
narv was happoning.
As In the case of the bullet proof coat
worn bvll err Dowe himself all the bul
lets flred at the coat coveririg 'the horse
were f6und to be imbedded 1U the material
but the animal Itself was' unhurt.
A naval officer who' was present atthe
experiments asked Herr Dowe if Mis bullet
proof armor coulu do appneu to war sutpi
and ne wan ossureu uy me mveutur mm,
ship protected by his bullet proof material
could stand a pounding from all the war
ships In the world without sustaining any
considerable ilamage. ui course ints is
only Herr Dowo's theory, but as he seems
to have carried out his theory In regard to
the bullet proof coat for soldiers it does
not seem unlikely that he may Do aule to
carry out his theory in regard to protect
ing war ships.
Dowo ha been at worn on nis new in
vention for a long time past. The first ex
periments of any Importance took place
near Manhelm shortly before ChrlBtmas.
The targets were covered with the new
material, and at a range ot about 110
yards ballets from tne new army rmo
went through uio targets anu teu uat
ten&d to the ground just behind them.
The new garment is described as look) ns
like ordinary army olothlng material, the
resisting secret substance being placed be
neath the outside cloth. The garment is
In the nature of a breast plate, and is fas
tened to the side buttons of the soldiers'
uniform. It is only to be used In actual
warfare, and weighs about six1 pounds.
Previous to the experiments of Sunday
last Dowo s bullet proof coat hail been ex
nerlmanted on before a military oomml
slon, all stylos of rifles used Jn the Ger
man army within the last fifteen years be
ing tested against It wltn tne most satis
factorv' results.
A large firm of army contractors offered
Dowe an enormous sum for his invention,
but tho tailor refused. Representatives
of several foreign governments have been
making strong efforts to obtain Herr
Dowe's secret, but it is said that all these
efforts have failed, and patriotlo Germans
exnress the desire that the German gov
ernment should secure Herr Dowo's secret,
that the bullet proof ooats may ba used by
the German army alone. It a said that
8,000,000 marks have been offered to Herr
Dowe by the German government for his
invention.
How Hill's Speech la Itecelved.
Washikoton, April 11. The Associated
Press bulletin, giving the result of the
vote in the New York legislature thank
ing Senator Hill for his opposition to the
Wilson bill, created a genuine sensation
on tho floor of the senate. Senator Hill
seemed much gratified at the receipt ot
the news, and his colleague, Senator Mur
phy, was apparently equally pleased. The
friends of the bill did not receive It favor
ably, but they declined to comment upon
it. The Republicans were elated. One
senator declared that the action meant the
defeat ot tho bill.

SHORT JACKETS SHOWN NOW.
Fickle fashion Una Chanced From One Ex

Fashion has entirely chnuged her mind
on the subject of outside coats since last win

hung nearly to the knees, but now short
jackets ale tlnwti, flaring Indeed, but with
out a great ileal of material in them. They
aro close fitting in the back, but mny be
either tight or loose In front, although they
are usually double brixiMtil, and largo rev
era are the aliiv st Invariable rule. Itlg,
carved button of colored pearl are uwd
upon them, ami txmffaht sleeves give tlm
fivhlouaUIe breadth of shoulder. Thin co
Vert cloth is the favorite material and is
uexVer than plain, g'nmy finished good, al
though the Hitter are still worn.
The tan sliadi s are less yellow than thoo

coats
and no wing sleeved garments have been
displayed among the new importations.
For street costumes the rounu bodice
still prevails. Sometimes there is a narrow
ripple bRque below the waltt, but the
plain belted corsage is the rule. Plain
skirts ore also the rule and so far greatly
outnumber the double or draped ones, al
though fashion prophets declare that the
latter are euro to conquer before long. The
average skirt is more than four yards
around tho bottom at present, and contains,
therefore, euoucli goods to give it an appreci
able weight. If an ample second skirt be
added to it. It will bo no light burden to
carry. The horizontal bands of trimming
so much used last season are giving place
to flounces, braid and other decoration ar
ranged about the foot of the skirt, and
many French models show the skirt left
entirely plain,
A gown ot biscuit zlbeline has a listing
skirt devoid of any trimming and a full
round bodice gathered in under a belt of
white satin ribbon. Over this Is worn an
Eton jacket of velvet of the same color,
with narrow revers and gigot sleeves. It is
embroidered all over with fine jet beads and
cabochons, and the lower part of the sleeves
Is decorated with immense jet buttons.

Posd Cr.EEK, 0. T., April 11. As n train
on the Rock Island road was nppronch-
lng Arkansas river, four miles below here,
a masked robber boarded the engine, and,
levelling two revolvers at tho engineer's
head, he ordered him to stop the train. As
soon as the train stopped several other
masked robbers, the actual number of
whom Is not known, made for the express
car.
Jack Harmon, the Wells Fargo express
messenger, held up his revolver and stood
at the, car door, ready to meet the on
slaught of the bandits. He positively de
clined to open up. Tho robbers then
placed a stick of dynamite under the car,
and an explosion followed which tore opeu
the whole side of the car.
After the explosion ono of tho robbers
approached tho car, nnd as soon as he was
seen by Messenger Harmon tho latter
oppened fire and killed the robber In
stantly. As soon as the other bandits saw
the game was up they attempted to re
treat. Harmon followed them, keeping up
continuous fusillade, and succeeded in
ouuding another of tho gang. The In
jured man fell In his tracks, but tho others
maunged to get away.
Tho dead and wounded robbers were
brought to Pond Creek. Some of the
citizens believe them to be members of the
Dalton gang.
