A DEADLY FUSE.
The Terrific Explosion I'm the Shoe
hurGnezs school of GunuerY.

The Terrific ExploSiOn i'm the Shoe
burgness school of Gunnery.
SHoEBURYNEss, Feb 27.-The explosion
in the school of gunnery yesterday was
caused by gunner using too much force in
inserting fuse into new kind of shell
with which experiments were being made.
The gunners head and arm were blown off.
Seventeen officers and men were witnessing
the experiment were knocked down, but
several of them escaped even slight injury.
The surgeons at first expected to sage the
lives of Commander Strangways and Colonel
Lyon, each of whom had both legs blown off,
but the shock and the effects of the amputa-
ton subsequently found necessary proved too
much for their strength and they expired
soon after the surgeons had finished their
work. The fuse which was being tested was
the invention of Colonel Lyon, who had OBJ
tanned permission to have the test made at
rather than in the Woolwich
arsenal because of their hazardous nature.
The Weeks Record of Failures.
New York, Feb. 27.-There were $40
failures in the United States reported to
Bradstreet's during the week against 254 in
the preceding week, 237, 260 and 157 in the
corresponding weeks of 1884, 1883 and 1882
respectively.

trout weighing twenty-four pounds
was caught in Maine in 1919. There is
nothing remarkable about it, thinks the

from the water by an angler the Maine
fish of lS49 should now weigh about
100000 pounds.
