Guns that Shoot Colored Fire
Caption: When one of these pistols is discharged, a stream of colored fire shoots out of the barrel for a distance of about fifty feet. Some pistols are loaded with Roman-candle fire-balls, and shoot a stream from one hundred and fifty to two hundred feet. Obviously there is a long range of visibility, to these shots of colored fire, and almost no limit to the code of signals that may be employed. They are used for signaling between airplanes in midair and the earth

WHEN one of these

pistols is dis-
charged, a stream of
colored fire shoots out
of the barrel for a dis-
tance of about fifty
feet.

Some pistols are
loaded with Roman-
candle fire-balls, and
shoot a stream from
one hundred and fifty
to two hundred feet.

Obviously there is a
long range of visibility
to these shots of col-
ored fire, and almost no
limit to the code of
signals that may be
employed. They are
used for signaling be-
tween airplanes in mid-
air and the earth.
