The Bon Marches Handsome New
Soda Fountain,

Inc delicious odor of freshly -plucked
flowers; the scintillation of real cut-qlass
III rays OF electric lights; the gleam OF nIre
Mexlcan onyx, and the sense OF viewing
something very handsome are the first i'm
pressiohs received on entering the Eon
Marche, and seeing for the first time their
new fountain. The fountain is comlosed
en'ireiy OF pure Mexican onyx, French
plate glass, solid silver and polished on K.
The fountain proper is composed of panels,
dados and tiles of onyx. studded here and
there by massive silver bolt heads, Join
ing plates and hinges. The front is COM
posed of eighteen pure onyx panels, bev-
elcd. Each OF these panels, framed in
carved silver. hides one porcelain syrup
jar. AT the center of each is seen the name
of the syrup contained. and mt the bottom
the ebony handles, silver tipped, lend Il
marked contrast to the surroundings.
The fountain is covered at the ton by n
slab of flawless Tennessee marble, pol-
ished to the highest degree. Encircled by
solid oak framework oflovely design reposes
large French plate-glass mirror. reflect
ing the cut-glass globes that enclose the
brilliant electric lights. Handsome. too, are
the solid onyx columns that support the top
most tornamentation.
The fountain, in its entirety. measures
8 1-2 feet from the floor, and is feet
long. Each glass of soda. dra wn must pass
through 200 feet of cooling apparatus,
and every drop of syrup comes from rorce-
lain jars, thus insuring absolute purity.
Adjoining the fountain is the new candy
department, complete in ITSELF. The Bon
Marche has decided to handle only the very
best qualities of candies ut popula prices.
The innovation to the store should prove
a most popular one, as it undoubtedly will.

MOTHER ACCUSED OF MURDER.
Baby's Remains Found at the Bottom
of Mine.

Hazleton. Pa, April 30.-The little town
OF Tresckow was thrown into a frenzy or
excitement yesterday morning by the cir
cuIation of a report OF another horrible
murder. The supposed victim is babe
and It's slayer is said 10 he its mother, but
who she is no one knows.
Louis Nicholas found bundle near the
Cotton OF a mine hole. The same bundle
had often been noted and commented
upon by the people OF the village, but
Nicholas decided yesterday TO investigate,
and SO descended into the cave. To his
horror he discovered the supposed bundle
70 be the decomposed body OF Il male child.
About its neck was rope. There were
numerous knots in the cord, and the little
neck was marked badly where the rope had
cut into the flesh.
How long the body has been dead is not
known. but its condition shows that month
or more has elapsed. The remains We're
carried to the surface and Coroner Rob
inson of Audenried was notified. Suspi
cion points TO a former resident OF that
locality. -Four months ago a Hungarian
woman living there, having attracted at
tention by her strange actions. it was
alleged at that time that a child had
been born to her, but that she had spirited
It away. The report led the police to
investigate her movements She was traced
to williamsport and Reading, and is now
supposed to be somewhere in Schuylkill
county.

THE TURRETS TO BE TESTED
Solid Shot From Big Guns to Be
Fired at a Target.
Trialof High xplosives-ENperime
with Gun Cot ton May Be Attempt
ed-Fired From Rifled Guns.

Lieut.. Mason, superintendent of the naval
proving station i t Indian Head, has been at
the Navy Department in connection with
an important test which will come off in
a few days, when it is proposed to determine
the actual effect produced on modern
turret when hit by pro.cctiles from the
highest power rifles.
This target has been constructed so as TO
produce all the details of the turrets on
the battlesEip Iowa, and, except that all of
its sides are not covered with Harvey's steel
armor and there are no rifles inside, the
dummy will be an exact reproduction. The
framing of the turret was manufactured by
the Cramps and the other essential parts at
Indian Head.
The face or that part which will be struck
by the shells presents fifteen-inch nickel
steel plate. such as will 20 on the Iowa, and
around and joining this will be iron plates
so fitted as to give resistance about equal
to those of regular service armor. Twelve
and ten-ich guns will be used.
Some pressure has been brought by for
eign legations to secure permission for
their attaches to attend the trial. but in
every instance the requests have been Ge-
clned. The Secretary intends giving for
elEn governments illtlc opportunity
courtesy calls for to profit by costly ex-
periments conducted by this government at
Indian Head.
If the Senate passes the appropriation OF
$4,000 for experiments with high explo-
sives in modern rifles, there will be some
lively work ahead in this line of ma val devel-
opmeft carly this summer. Gun cotton has
been fired with remarkable success in dam
gerous quantities from six-inch rifles. but
through lack of funds the Department has
been unable to make experiments with large
quantities of this explosive in guns of the
largest caliber.
The bureau of ordnance does not ques-
ton the theories advanced by everal
officers that, with safe detonator, gun
cotton can he discharged from twelve-inch
guns with absolute safety, and if this is
shown by actual experiment, then the
Importance of pneumatic dynamite guns
like those located at Sandy Hook and San
Francisco will be reduced to 4 minimum, as
compared to the destructive possibilities
of high explosives discharged from rifled
guns.
The extreme range of the pneumatic gun
is only three miles, and its accuracy Is
questioned, while with ten-inch gun
eight or ten miles could be secured readily.
Guns discharging high explosives from
shipboard would give new phase TO mod
ern naval battles.
