A Catch in Treaty.

New York, March IA World special
from Washington says that Prof. Henry
w. Elliot. who passed thres Seasons in
Alaska, claims to have discovered trap
In the pending treaty with Great Brit
ain to define the boundary of Alaska
along the 141st meridian.
Article i of tho treaty. he says.
permits the DETECTION Of the true meri-
dian line to give us a strip of lofty
mountain top land two and half miles
wide at the base, and running north
west for 20 miles, narrowing to nothing
where 1T strikes the 14lst meridian. This
is gift which 1 believe is decidedly
Grecisn, al 1t establishes the bad proceed
snt of our willing departure from the
strict line of our treaty rights. If we
take advantage of.this opening here,
what will prevent Canada from asking
a similar privilege on our side when we
reach the next settlement on the thirty
mile strip? We should take nothing more
and nothing less than what is given us
by the exact line of our treaty. With
the exception of Article !, tine treaty is

Experiments With Mckenzie.

In experimenting with the new explo.
sive, melenite, some most interesting facts
were brought to light Three wells were
sunk on the slope of three hills There was
an interval of 100 yards between two OF
them and slightly more between the second
and third. The wells were square in form
and 26 feet Deep At the bottom there was
chamber arranged to hold 80 cases of the
explosive, each case containing ITO pounds;
$500 pounds of powder were put into one
of the chambers, and 3, $50 pounds of mel
enite were placed in the other. The pow
der was ignited by an electric current. A
terrific roar and rumbling, then great
column of smoke covered the place. When
this had cleared away, it was discovered
that the entire face of the locality had been
changed in appearance Enormous masses
of rock were thrown to the bottom and op-
posite side of the ravine; in some cases
pieces as large as 35 cubic feet were flung
out like marbles. The road was obscured,
vegetation had entirely vanished, and the
surface of the ground was covered with
rocks and earth.
An hour afterward the melenite was ex.
ploded. The noise was louder than the
charge of powder, and the earth was seri.
ously shaken at 500 yards distant from the
place where the explosion occurred. The
popularity Of this explosive was that in.
stead of large masses the rock was reduced
almost to fragments. 1t was difficult to
find piece larger than mans fist, so
completely was it disintegrated, and the
earth was opened for some distance A not.
able feature of the explosive was that in
wide assures where the rocks remained
apparently intact, they were so loosened
and crushed by the explosion that the
slightest touch precipitated them down
the ravins, where they crumbled into little
pieces This experiment. has attracted a
great deal of attention, especially from the
fact of the power of the melenite to crush
rocks into such small bits, popularity
hitherto unknown in experimenting with
explosives. New York Ledger.

Telling the Faithful How to Vote.

The letter urges the faithful in the COM

have at heart not only the national but
the religiousl interest OF the country;
prudent men in preference to men who
would change the order of things The
faithful are advised to seek advice of

as an indirect reference to the school
