the fuller accounts which now reach MS
Ii appears that the nitro -glyccrinc had
been stored in the woods for Use on the
line of the New York and Boston rail
road: there were five cans. each con
tanning 100 pounds, and they were in

posted danger 81 ignals. warning people
of the nature of the contents of the cans
Four boys. Hill. Gallagher. Terry and
Domnolly, were ont hunting. and. com
ing upon the incloSurc. were rash
enough to desire Il little sport with the
terrible explosive. Climbing to the top
of large rock which ovclhung the
cans, Hill and Gallagher proposed to
roll Il large stone upon them, while the
other two retreated behind some trees
about 200 feet distant. The foolish
boys dropped the stone, which weighed
about 80 pounds. and an instantaneous
and appalling explosion occurred. blow
ing into fragments the rock on which
they stood, tearing up the trees, roots
and soil for hundreds of feet around. and
shaking the ground like an earthquake:
the explosion was heard for ten miles
around. The men at work upon the
railroad ran at once to the spot, and
found Terry and Donnolly. their bod
les lying about 200 feet from the scene
of the explosion, grnaning in agony.
DOnmolly'S nody was badly liberated.
His legs and one arm were broken. his
body was black and blue. and one eye
WAS gone. He was m"rtally wounded.
Terry was the least hurt. and will prob
ably recover. He is the only one left
to give an account of the affair. When
the smoke had cleared away, search
was made for Hill and Gallagher. Hills
body was blown to atoms. His entr;iils
were suspended from the limbs of Il tree

Location of the Great Refracting Tel
escope.

Prof. DaNldSOn. of the coast survey, i
experimenting near summit Station ON
the Sierra Nevada. at an elevation of
200 feet above the level of the sea. to
determine the relative Importance of
great and small attitudes in the Use of
the telescope for Investigations of phN<-
zeal astronomy. 1t is understood that
he has been completely successful. and
will recommend Il location about TO-
600 feet above the SEA. near the line of
the Central Pacific railroad. from which
it can he readily reached 10y Il short and
easily constructed wagon road. Prof
"ung of Dartmouth college. has been
experimenting with larger instruments
1T Sherman. on the Rocky Mountains.
ut an elevation of S.2l2 feet above the
sea.
The results of these observers will hc
presented in reports that will probably
lead to the locating of the 21-imch re
frlcting telescope at one of the clrVa-
tons. The lenses for this telescope are
being ground by the McSSrS. Clark. of
Mass. for the United
States government at an expense of
nearly S5O.0OO. With such telescope.
and the high magmifying power OF which
it will admit the use. there is not over
one or two nights per year on the low
Atlantic coast where it could he used
with its highest magnify ing powers.
On the Sierra. with our long freedom
from clouds, many more favorable OPP
portunitics must exist for observations.
and we may look forward for marvel
louS revelations in physical astronomy.
