HOW DYNAMITE Is MADE.
The Deadly Explosive Composed of Nitro
Rlyoerin and Earth.

The Deadly Explosive Composed of Nitro
glycerin and Earth.
The best quality of dynamite ia a
mixture of 70 per cent of nitroglycerin
and % per cent of kieselguhr-a sill
ceous earth with highly absorptive
power, capable of taking up two or
three times its own weight of nitroglyc-
erin without becoming pasty. The OBJ
ject of the mixture is to diminish the
susceptibility of nitroglycerin to slight
shocks, and to facilitate the carrying Of
it without destroying its explosive
force. Dynamite is in appearance not
unlike brown sugar. While moist it is
squeezed into cartridges, which are
prepared Of parchment paper, and the
firing is done by illuminate of silver in
copper capsules, provided with patent
exploders. Its descriptive force is esti-
mated at about eight times that of gun.
powder, and it has the popularity of
taking effect in downward direction.
Nitroglycerin, which is light yellow,
oily liquid, is nitric acid 1 part and
sulphuric acid parts, to which is add
ed ordinary glycerin and the mixture
well washed with pure water It has
sweet, aromatic, pungcnt taste and the
peculiar property Of causing headache
when placed in a small quantity on the
tongue or wrist. 1t was first used i'll

How "Dog Days" Derived Their Name

The dog days last properly speaking,
from the Sd Of July to the 18th of Au-
gust. The popular theory is that they
are so called because dogs then go mad !;
but the notion is etmyologically false,
besides oeing untrue in fact. Dogs,
strange to say, are rather less liable to
rabies then than at other times. Dog
days" is really a translation of the Latin
dies canicularcs-tho 20 days before and
the 20 days after the beliacal rising ii.
e., appearance in the morning just be-
fore the SUM Of the star Sirius, whom
the Romans called "Canicula, " or little
dog. The ancients attributed most
malevolent influence to this star-our
"dog star, and sacrificed brown dog
to it to appeasc its rage.

OKLAHOMA STATEHOOD.

Oklahoma, Territory has an able
champion in Hon. Thos. McRea,
who has introduced a bill in the
House for its admission into state
hood. The bill is one to extend the
laws and limits Of the Territory OF
Oklahoma, and to enable the peo-
pie thereof to form a constitution
and state government and to be
admitted into the union on an equal
footing with the original states.
The bill has received its second
reading and has been referred 10
the committee on Territories and
ordered printed. This bill ifpassed,
will take away from Fort Smith,
Ark, and Paris, Texas, all of that
u. S. court business embraced in
the Oklahoma district, as the bill
recites, that all laws and parts Of
laws which confer jurisdiction upon
the courts Of the United States at
Paris, in the eastern district OF
Texas, and at Fort Smith, in the
western district of Arkansas, over
oGeuses against the laws of the
United States committed within the
Indian country, shall cease TO be
operative and Of effect from and
after the date Of the admission OF
the State contemplated by this
Act: Provided, That nothing herein
contained shall be SO construed as
to deprive the SAID courts at Paris
and Fort Smith from proceeding to
a final determination Of all causes
which may be pending in said courts
at the date aforesaid.
The bill will no doubt be passed
at an early day, as Mr.. McIIea never
sleeps when he has once enlisted in
cause OF SO much Importance to
his country as this bill would imply,

PICK OUT WHAT YOU WANT.
The General Office Lottery Is Wide
Open Step in and Take
a Chance.

Now is the accepted time to get
aboard the political train and trav-
el toward the official destination
your inclination may carry you.
The good people have several fat
places to give out and if you don't
ask tor want you want, they will
not look you up to give it out.
There is a United States Sena-
tors place to be parcelled out
only two applications for this place
thus far
Then comes a Congressional plum.
This Is a real soft place and worth
$4,000 for the term of two years.
Tom McRae is now holding on to
this place, and he is such a good
fellow no one has showed up yet to
ask him to divide.
The Governors position comes
next, and is held by James ?. Clarke.
James is tired of the place, as he
finds it necessary to take pop
around to make people respect his
office, if they don't him. He wants
James K. Jones place.
The Attorney-General, E, B,
Kinsworthys place has no applica-
tions thus far. 1t is a good fat of
fee and little work, and Cshould be
held by some lazy lawyer, who is
without clientage at home.
The Office of Superintendent of
Public Instruction, now held by Ju-
MUS Jordan, is another soft snap,
and might be sought after by every
live pedagogue in the State.
Then we have the State Treasur-
er,s office. This Office is a snap and
has paid good salaries in days gone
by. We learn that Churchill and
Woodruff, while they held this of
fee, paid themselves a little more
salary than the President of the
United States gets. This Office has
no askers, thus far, and a man well
versed in figures, knowing how to
balance up books, would find good
thing here.
Then comes the Auditors place,
another soft place. This Office is
one of the best, after the Treasur-
ers, in the State. The Auditor is
supposed to draw(O his own salary
and half of what his help is allowed.
We suppose there will be many can
didates for this position.
There is another Office, We be-
lieve it is designated as the Com
missioner of Agriculture. This Of
fee is now held by gentleman call
ed Vincinheller. There is a tolera-
bic salary attached to this office,
with pleasant duties to attend to,
such as visiting country fairs and
and testing the apples and jams,
and slipping the native wines. We
would like to nominate DeMahler
for this position, for he is posted on
apples, and as a tester of wines, he
stands at the head of the list.
This completes the State offices,
we believe. But there are some
fat, soft snaps in the way of Offices,
in Miller county, but, as yet, no.
body has offered for any Of them.

George II. Dunning, Of Faneuil Hall

81 was run down, had nervous prostra'
lion, lost my appetite, could not sleep
without opiates, had little control over

pain in the pit Of my stomach, and had
abandoned business, pleasure, and, prac-
tically, life itself, When the crisis came
was out of my head and my temperature
was up to los degrees. When the neigh
bors came to inquire the doctor told them
that was past hope. My nurse made
another appointment, as if it was certain,
\ that my death would come in five days at
the outside.
81 had one chance in hundred, and I
took that chance. All the doctors and

dashed for one of the small boats, let
it into the water and struck off for the
shore. In their fight into the boat they
showed the women aside. One passen-
ger got into the boat and escaped with
the crew.
AS soon as possible, and certainly
within two or three minutes after the
passengers reached the deck, all /of
them had climbed to places of safety in
the rigging. The rest of the crew and
the officers also took to the rigging.
The captain was the last To leave the
ship.
Captain j. w. Morris, who was in the
smoking room, rushed for the bridge,
and, realizing at a glance the serious
nature of the case, signalled to the en-
CINE room to run the boat ashore into
shallow water. This was done, and the
captains prompt decision and action no
doubt saved many lives, The bow of
the vessel kept sinking. The deeper she
sank her bows the higher she reared
her stern, and when the keel took the
ground the propeller was so high out of
the water that only the lower flanges
touched 1t.
TUG STEAMS OVER THE SUNKIIN
VESSEL.
The tug Harold was in the vicinity of
the accident, and FASTENED to render
assistance to the crippled Ailsa. She
steamed close to that vessel during her
journey to the beach, and then ran
alongside.
Only two feet of the Ailsa's smoke
stack showed above water, and there
was enough water over the deck to af-
ford free passage for the rescuing tug.
The Harold took advantage of this fact
and boldly steamed right over the ALI
sa's deck and between the masts. Thus
the rescue of the Ailsa's passengers
and officers and crew was rendered cas-
Ter. There was some wind, but the wa
ter was not very rough. Some of those
in the Ailsa,s rigging stepped directly
on to the Harold's deck. Others de-
scended by means of a ladder raised by
the crew OF the Harold.
Once on board the Harold, the rescued
ones We're well taken care of. The wo-
men We're sheltered in the tugs engine

from the Ailsa were landed by the
Harold at the Barge office pier, Bat
