IILO 1ST DAYS NOT YET PAST Anybody who in the safety of the police protection of the larger western cities refers to the "wild west" in skeptical terms spesks not advisably. Days of two gun men, of crack shots, and of reck less dare deviltry on the range have net gone as was evidenced by a punctured "ten gallon" hat which Frank Morgan displayed in the jus tice court this morning. Morgan was in the justice court to pay a fine for drunkeness and being In possession of a dangerous weapon. Through the top of the hat was a wide and gaping hole. Morgan was asked what caused such a hole. According to the story that was told in the justice court, partly by Morgan and partly by his friends. Brown and Morgan, bosom compa nions, were on the range one day, when Brown, who is one of the crack shots of the neighborhood, said: "Bet I can drill one through yonr hat." "I dare you to," promptly re sponded Morgan. Whereupon Brown, is true west ern story-book style, make a light ning draw and fired. The ballet punctured Morgan's hat 'as it rest ed on his head. The two men went on abont their business as if Morgan had not mis sed death by a scant Inch. Brown and Morgan are from Bly. They were arrested there follow ing complaints that lights had been shot out In dance halls while danc ing was in progress. OF PLANE, SHIP LONDON, Fob. 5. England has been interested in a debate as to whether the modern battleship had not been rendered obsolete by the airplane. Admiral Mark Kerr took the affirmative and Viscount Curzon the negative. The decision favored the arguments of Curzon. The viscount contended that as to whether or not the present type of capital ship was obsolete depended on iwliothor the battleship could v destroyed by under-water boats or by aircraft. Jutland proved that the bomb and torpedo had not gained ascendary over the heavy gun. Gun fire had an accuracy far above that of the weapons of submarines or planes. Experiments purporting to show that the big ship was at the mercy of hovering planes had been carried out, but the target ship we an obsolete one, and the test had been carried out In fair weather and perfect water. The batleship still re mained the greater factor of naval strength. "Admiral Kerr's suggested large aircraft carrier," Viscount Curzon said, "was Just as vulnerable as the big battleship, which after all, could have Its protective seaplane."
