The experience OF a Salem, Mass, man
should be warning to experimenters to
be very careful with X-rays until great
deal more has been learned with regard
10 the phenomenon. This Salem man has
been poisoned by the rays. and may lose
his hand. After several exposures to the
rays the hand began to exhibit symptoms
similar to those Of poisoning with poison
oak or other vegetable poisoning. The
skin turned dark brown and peeled off,
while every hair fell out. The nails turned
purple and came off, and the hand was
otherwise affected. AT last accounts it had
not yielded to treatment.
1t is estimated by a shrewd politician
that there are not less than $1,000 silent
voters" in Illinois, concerning whose pre-
ferences nobody can with authority say a
word. 1t is believed that most of these win
vote on election day. It goes without say
ing that these silent voters will have
great influence upon the outcome of the
election. And it is the same way in other
states. The "silcnt" and the "stay-at-
home" vote will probably be heard from
this year, when the votes are counted.
Massachusetts politician goes Mark
Hanna's flag day proposition
one better, and suggests a
bonfire night. The idea is good,
provided the fires are fed with the right
kind of stuff. If about nine-tenths of the
silly campaign rot that has been printed
and circulated in the last three months
could be gathered up and burned to impal-
pabe ashes and scattered to the four
winds, it would be good thing.

Six revenue cutters and two or three
warships are now patroling the coast
of Georgia and Florida to.prevent flibus-
tering craft from sailing from these parts
TO Cuba. The Gordon is strong, but the
little steamers suspected of being in the
employ Of the Cubans are swift, and their
captains are daring. Sixty cutters would
probably not be sufficient to keep them in

According to the Chicago papers, the
courts of that city are working at high
pressure at turning out naturalized citi-
zens. The political heelers are hustling
night and day getting the details arranged
for immigrants tofbecome citizens in time
to vote at the approaching election. 1t
is apparent to observers that at best very
little thought is given to the immigrants
fitness for citizenship. All that the heel
ers care for is that the immigrant shall
secure a vote and deliver it to them on
election day. The politicians of both
parties are equally culpable in the matter
of rushing voters through the naturaliza-
tion MILL which will be kept grinding as
long as It is possible to make voters Of
the new Corners Just before every ma
tional election this same kind of thing Is
practiced. The custom has been in
weighed against by almost every news
paper in the land, but it continues.

FATAL BOILER EXPLOSION.
Three People Killed and a Man Seri-
OusIy Injured.

HOUSTON (Tex), June 29.-This af-
ternoon the boiler in the office of the
Daily Argus exploded, killing En-
gineer Henry Lyons, Miss Matte Loeb,
Il stenographer in the office of W. c.
Van Week, Vice-President and General
Manager of the Atlantic system of the
Southern Pacific; Edward r. Emory.
telegraph operator in the same office,
ard seriously injuring Mr.. Van Week
himself.
The force Of the explosion carried the
entire boiler, which was of 1S-horse
rcWer, across a vacant lot where it
struck a building, where it was DETECTED
up and crashed into the general office
of the Southern Pacific system on
Franklin avenue, over 800 feet away
Mr.. Van Week was debating to Miss
Loeb when the boiler crashed through
the brick into the rear of the building,
taking everything in its way. Miss
Loeb was carried nearly twenty feet
from her chair, and was found after
wards buried in a mass of debris. She
lived only about twenty minutes. Mr..
Van Week was carried some distance
also, but escaped with serious cuts on
the head.
In the next office, divided by a thin
petition, were two telegraph operators,
Edward Emory and Theo. G.. Rice The
former was struck by the boiler and in
stantly killed, while his companion es-
capped practically uninjured Henry
Lyons, the unfortunate engineer, whose
carelessness probably caused the hor-
ror, was blown to pieces. The inmates
CT the editorial, business and compos-
ing-roorns of the Daily Argus" were
uninjured, as the force of the explosion
was all in the opposite direction. The
pecuniary damage amounts to about

Telegraphing Through Space.

The possibility of telegraphing
through space, which was fully
demonstrated last year by w. II.
Preece, has been turned to account in
a most effective way. for maintain
ing communication between the
mainland and the Fasthet lighthouse,
on the southwest coast of Ireland.
Formerly, the difficulties of carrying
telegraph cable up an exposed rock,
where it was subject to constant
chatting. were almost insuperable.
The non-continuous system is now
used and works admirably. The
cable terminates in the water sixty
yards off, and the electric currents
sent from the shore find their way
though this distance in two bare
wires that dip into the sea from the
rock.

WAS too short in which to stop the
train.
