1T WAS A GREAT BLAST.

Five Thousand Pounds Of Dynamite
Exploded Under Il Rocky Dixie
For many years huge mass of rock.
technically known as a dixie" leg
acy from previous workers, has
frowned over one Of the great Diner
vic quarries, the property of MI. AS
shelton Smith, and has been a growing
menace to the safety of men employed
in the galleries" below, which, in a
series Of terraces" rise almost from
the edge of the lake far up the steep
breast Of the mountain. The Hon. w.
W. Vivian, who manages the Quarries
for Mr.. Assheton Smith, decided to re-
move the dixie, and during the last
three months preparations for its de-
structien have been in active progress
From three longitudinal tunnels in
the solid rock ten chambers, each
eleven feet by four feet. We're made
and charged with gelatine dynamite.
Each bag Of the explosive was placed
in position by Mr.. Vivian himself.
Everything having been satisfactorily
arranged Mrs. ASsheton Smith was re-
quested to fire the twenty minute time
fuse leading to the mass Of some two
and half tons Of gelatine dynamite
safely packed in the entrails of the
rock, request to which she readily
acceded. The hour was fixed for /
o'clock on Saturday. and shortly before
that time thousands Of people from
1.ianberis and adjacent villages, Ban
gor, Carnarvon and other towns, took
up advantageous positions in the neigh
korhood
OF f1,c >s,>to
ASsheton Smith fired the time fuse, and
at 1.O2 o'clock the earth for mile
around was shaken as if by an earth
quake At the next instant the face of
the tremendous dixie, which lowered
gioomily upward and on either side of
which the rain-cOvcled rock glistened
in 4 passing burst of sunshine, began
to tremble Omi,lously and the loose
earth in it's crevices clattered down it's
smooth sides like an avalanche Next,
from different parts of the rock, came
suffering bursts of smoke and then
enormous blocks detached themselves
from the mountainess mass of rock,
toppled slowly forward and finally
crashed into the abyss below with deaf
ening uproar, which, mingling with the
thunders Of the exploding dynamite,
now freed from it's rock prison, rover
berated grandly amoung the mountains
that lowered ruggedly into the cloud
darlened sky. Again and again was
the downfall of the huge masses of
rock repeated till 100000 tons lay like
"tumbled fragments of the hills" far
below. A dense white smoke, the dead
ly afterdamp, chung for awhile around
the scene of the explosion, and when
that cleared away in the place of the
dixie there was great gap, in which
glistened here and there pinnacles of
splintered rocks-London Telegraph.

Turkish superstitions.

There is no land on earth where
more superstitions prevail than that of
the unspeakable Turk. Some of them
are interesting. If sparrow or swal-
low flies in at the window and cir
cles three times around the room it is
a sign that blood relation of some one
present is about to die. There are
many signs and happenings that are
supposed to predict marriage For in
stance, if horse sneezes when young
girl passes in the street she is positive
that her time is nearly come. If her
hair become unfastened she knows that
she will soon be sought for, and if she
goes to cat peach and finds it's kernel
split she is equally certain that she viii

wearisome rounds TO effer a CHEEKY
greeting. Then she recollected the I'M
possibility of his granting such a re-
quest, so decidedly against orders::''
and so, at last, poor Stella resigned
herself to the inevitable. The letter
was gone--no doubt it was on its way,
even now, to that far-off Northern city;
she must be resigned, and submit hum
bly, to the consequences of her own
rash act.

no one else in that town corresponded
with him, and in fact, Teddy was quite
stranger there. So full of hope, Stel-
IL fastened to the postofice. She
knew that she would not be permitted
to claim the letter, but only to affix
the necessary stamp. In her angry
haste to mail the letter, which would
dissolve all bonds between Teddy and
herself, she had utterly forgotten to
place stamp upon it. But Stella was
in luck again. The postmaster was an

nothing. She begged so hard to be al
lowed to claim possession Of the letter,
that he smilingly consented; and SO
perfectly happy-Stella carried the let
ter home. Once there. the first thing
she did was to put it into the fire
Then she seated herself acd wrote
Teddy a terder, loving letter, telling
him Of the communica ton which she
had received from Mr.. Smithson, and
inclosng the letter itself to Teddy.
This time she did not forget a post
age stamp. The letter was hardly
mailed when the postman brought he1.

She has long owned the place, having

Instruction of Children.

Teach children to do little things
about the house. 1t trains them to be
useful, not awkward, in later and more
important affairs; it gives them occu-
patton while they are small, and it
really is an assistance to the mother
in the end, although she always feels,
during the training period, that it is
much easier to do the thing herself
than to show another how. This last
excuse has done much to make selfish,
idle, unhandy members Of an older So
ciety, and should be remembered, in
its effects, by the mother while her lit
tie ones are beginning to learn all
things, good and bad, at her knee. Oc-

eyes, except those of her still older
coachman and general factotum. To

nor other than a coveted match for any
other man. AS he was bringing the

he suddenly mentioned his hostess

A very fruitful source Of expense in
navy departments Of late years has
been the constant docking and cleaning
necessary of vessels with steel hulls
Many ships have to be docked every
four or six months for cleaning and
painting the bottoms, owing to the ac-
emulation of marine growths, and be-
sides the expense, this involves serious
loss Of time In an official report on
this subject last year an instance was
mentioned, by way of Illustrating how
urgent this necessity was apt to be-
come, that with clean bottom GER
tain war ship readily made seven to
eight knots on seven tons Of coal, while
