what Kills Many.

A coroner in Australia recently
reasoned out verdict more sensi-
bly, than one-half the verdicts
usually rendered. 1t appeared that
an Irishman, conceiving that lit
tie powder thrown upon some green
wood would facilitate it's burning,
directed small stream from key
upon the burning piece. but not
possessing a hand sufficiently quick
to cut this supply off was blown in,
to million pieces.
The following was the verdict,
delivered with great gravity by the
official: Cant be called suicide,
bekaso he didn't mean to kill him
self. He didn't die for want of
breath, for he hadn't anything to
breathe with. It's plain he didn't
know what he was about, SO | shall
bring in-died for want of com
mon sense"
