\ Simple Illustration OF Its
Tremendous Force.
Portland Transcript.
Dynamite is so instantaneous in its
action that green leaf can be COM
pressed into the hardest leest before it
has had time to fiatten. One of the ex-
periments at the United State Torpedo
works was to place some leaves between
two heavy. fiat pieces of iron, set them
on a firm foundation and see what gun
cotton would do in forcing the iron
pieces together.
A charge was placed upon them by
COMPRISING the gun-cotton into cylin-
drlcal form about one inch thick and
three or four inches i'm diameter. through
the center of which hole is made for a
cap of illuminate of mercury, by which
the gun-cOttOn is exploded. The reac-
ton was so great, from merely being ex-
ploded in the open air, that one of the
iron pieces Was driven down upon the
other SO quickly and with such force
that iteaught an impression of the leaves
before they could escape.

the revenues of the company amounted

COY. Ramsey

Gov. Ramsey Gov. RAMSEY, who
has peculiarly humOr-
as q Pho sous way of telling
story, entertained the
neer Farmer. party at the BUSH
NELL banquet Tues
day evening with an amusing recital of
his experiences in pioneer farming in
Minnesota. He owned a 200-acre farm,
then in an untamed state. but which in
cluded that part of st. Anthony hill
now bounded by Dale. Fuller and Rice
streets and Summit avenue. He hired
gang of labOrers to inclOse his farm
with a pole fence, but instructed them, &C
cOrding to the custom of the times, to cut
the poles on any body else's land but his
own. His first attempt at farming was to
raise corn crop. The neighborss told
him that it was an excellent crop, so he
sent man down into Iowa to buy up a
lot of hogs to feed through the winter.
The hogs were purchased and brought
to the farm at great expense. At the
end Of two weeks they had devoured the
last ear of corn, SO he had to sell the
hogs for less than cost. He then turned
his attention to milling. He was ambi-
tious to build the first flour mill in Min
nesota. Hastings was selected as the
site of the new industry. where he
erected S35, 900 mill. which he was aft
erwards glad to get $4,000 for. These
experiences convinced him that agri-
culture was not his forte, so he turned
his attention to other matters In which
he succeeded better. 81 always like to
see Gov. RAMSEY at these social gath
erings," remarked gentleman who sat
at the banquet table, '.for you will OBJ
serve he always carries the Doxology In
