however. In loss Of life-four persons being
instantly killed, one fatally injured and two
Others seriously. AT the time mentioned,
the agent Of the Roberts Company was pre-
pairing TO torpedo the well with eighteen
quarts Of nitro-gIycerinc. The fact
Of the torpedoing was known IN the
village, and number Of men
and children gathered through curiosity to

shooter, had adjusted The torrtdo shell IN
the hole and filed the anal tubular oriice
IN the shell with "a explosive compound.
Into this orihce slender iron rod passes.
forming what & called ssfiring head. .
In placing the iron rod Il met with some OBJ
struction, and Rust struck Il on the end with
his open hand. Instantly an explosion fol-
lowed. Two cans Of nitro glycerIne stand
ing on the derrick noor added TO the force
Of the shock. The report was very heavy,
being heard distance Of seven miles.

tance Of three hundred feet. bis head and
limbs being torn from the body. and liter
ally scattered about In the form Of mince-
meat.

by. mixing aaiatle of it with soft water.
If too much acid has been added, oily
PARTICLES tof carbolic acid will be OBJ
Served floating on the surface. This
shows that more acid has been put in
than the soap will incorporate or cut.
and more soap should be- added to
balance the. excess of acid. No more
definite rule can be given, as so much
depends on the strength of the soap.
Two orr three tablespoonfuls of the
