AN .INFERNAL MACHINE IN A
LETTER.

The Cologne Germany Gazette reports Q
new edition of the internal machine of the
murderer Thomas. At Zabrze, in Upper
silesiia, letter directed to a man named
Pelka, to be delivered into his own hands,
was given up to his wife. Being very large
and thick and fastened with tape, it ex.
cited her curiosity. On pulling one of the
ends of the tape for the purpose of opening
the letter there was frightful explosion.
Frau Pelka was thrown down and severely
injured, and all the windows In the house
were broken. As far as has been discover
ed from the fragments afterward picked up,
it appears that the letter contained some ex-
plosive substance, either dynamite or nitro
glycerine, and cap and needle for its igni-
ton, with which the tape communicated.
The author of the crime has not yet been
caught; but whoever he be he has not
given up his intention to destroy Pelka, for
he has written letter to the latter's en-
ployer threatening to repeat the attempt %
his life if he is not at once dismissed.

POISONING by BURNING GAS.

To have our rooms pleasantly Illuminated
with gas is to undergo process of poison
ing, the more disastrous because, instead of
directly producing the characteristic symp-
toms of defective blood oxygenization, the
gas polluted atmosphere insiduously lowers
