DAISY FLY KILLER GUNS Kaiser’s Army Had a 8tock of Fifty Thousand of Them When th* War Began. British Headquarters, France.—It la almost impossible to exaggerate the importance of the German strength in machine guns, which they use with the greatest skill and courage They had a stock of 50.000 on hand at the beginning of the war, and have been keeping this supply replenished constantly from their arms factories. A favorite trick is to leave a ma chine gun or two hidden in a cellar or similar place of concealment until the enemy’s advance has swept by and then open fire on the rear. The post of the men serving the gun la. of course, hopeless, but they are fairly certain to sell their lives dearly, con tinuing to fire their gun to the last As an Instance of the deadly awift- neas of machine-gun fire, it is stated that a man coming under the fire of one of these weapons and shot through the head can be struck yet ten times more in the second or two that be takes to fall to the ground.
