DEATH IN ITS SECRET.
Awfri De.truot,veness OF Tuininaas OF
Mercury, the Powerful Explosive.

illuminate OF mercury, which is used b,
European anarchists in the manufacture
Of their bombs, is oue of the most trcacli-
erous and powerful explosives known 10
science, Heretofore it has beon employed
in percussion caps and as det0nator Tor
nitrn2lyoCr!n preparations. Ii explodes
when subjected TO slight shock or to
heat, and not "a few expert chemists since
its English inventor Howard, have been
seriously injured oI killed while preparing
or experimenting with it.
In France some years ago the celebrated
chemist Barruel was manipulating this
dangerous product in heavy agate NOR
tar when his attention was suddenly dis
tracted and he lot the pestle down with u
little less care than ordinary. The explo-
sion which followed almost literally blew
tie mortar to dust, and IL tore Barruel's
hand from his wrist. Another distinguish
cd chemist, Bcllot, was blinded and had
both hands torn of while experimenting
with illuminate of mercury. Justin LEROY.
French expert in the manufacture of ex
plosiyes, was one day engaged in expert.
mcnting with this compound in a damp
state, in which condition it WAS supposed
to be harmless. 1t exploded with such
force, however, that nothing of NJ Leroy

The Strongest Arm.

In tho last report of the Anthropometric
laboratory Of London the relative strength
ana length OF limbs in men and women are
gwen. In man III 50.9 cases out of 100 the
right arm Is stronger than the left In 6. 4
cases the two arms are of equal strength.
III 81. Z cases out of 100 the left arm is the
stronger. Thus-and here is fact that
appears to be but little known-out of ey-
cry ten men there are more than three
whose right arm is not as strong as the
lett. The proportion is better distributed
IN women. Out of 100 only 40 possess
more strength in the right arm, and "a. 8
tS4y' nearly one-fourth) have more strength
ia the lett. Dynamometric experiments
have likewise proved that in womcn t,s
upper limos possess the same strength
hiuch ottener than in men, since out OF
100 there are SO that have given the same
results in the two arms.

quartet will take in the Paris Exposition
in that year It is facetious!y said that
no one of these boys will go till February
without using tobacco. but at all events, a
contract has been signed, with a forfeit
that the persons who shall forget
or otherwise to fail to keep their contracts,
will give certain amount of money to
those who have gone without smoking.
The average cost of tobacco, per month for
each man, Is estimated at 81, which, if
saved as is now the intention, will be
more than enough to have good time in
the French capital in 1900
