Note. ON Science and Industry.

Experiments OF an interesting nature
have been made with the new explosive,
liquid air, and with encouraging results,
under the conditions of trial. This is re-
ported as having been the case with tests
made on the parade-ground OF Munich,
and an exhaustive test on large scale
Is reported as having taken place in a
coal mine at Pensburg, not far from
Munich, trials which, continued for
months, proved very satisfactory. The
chief advantage claimed for this explo-
sive Is its slight cost, being simply that
OF the power used In liquefying the air.
Even the fact that after a short time the
substance ceases TO be capable of ex-
ploding is urged as recommendation in
one respect, for, If a detonator hangs
fire, there is no danger Of the charge
going off accidentally some time after
the explosion is due.

SPLIT ON FUSION.
Missouri POpuIists Are Holding
Two State Conventions.

st. Louis, July THE Popuist party
of Missouri is split on fusion lines and
the state convention that was called to
meet here today to nominate a ticket
and select members of the state COM
mittee is being held in two different
halls At the Olympic theater where
the convention is called to meet the
middIe-of-th f-the-roaders were unable to
obtain entrance without tickets signed
by Chairman RoSelle Of the POpuliSt
state committee 1t is asserted by the
ROSelle crowd that these tickets might
have been obtained if the middle-of-
the-roaders had presented their creden-
tials, but that they refused to do this
and were not admitted.
Chairman Arthur ROseIle called the
regular convention to order at 1880
with about 100 delegates present. Owen
Miller of St. Louis was elected chair
man, and A. @. Talley Of Dade county,
secretary.
Committees on credentials, permanent
organization and order of business and
resolutions were appointed by the
chair.
Chairman Miller made a short ad-
dress, in which he declared this the
regular convention. He denounced the
action of ex-COmmitteeman Long for
trying to secure an order restraining
the state committee from refusing him
admission to its councils and declared
such action utterly opposed to the pre-
ceptS of the POpuliSt party. The speak
er repudiated the middle-of-th -the-roaders
and declared that they were being led
on by the Republican party.
After being in session about an hour
the convention took a recess to enable
the committees to prepare their reports.
After leaving the entrance of the reg
ularly appointed meeting place the
middle-o -the-roaders assembled at an
other hall near by and organized by
electing S. A. Rider of Springfield, as
chairman and Frank z. Hickey as sec
retary.
The usual committees were also ap-
pointed and a short recess taken.
About the same number of delegates
were present here,

Headquarters in the Field, before
Santiago, Monday, July 4. via Kingston,
Jamaica, July THE incidents attend
ing the death OF Lieut.. Ord, son Of the
late Gen. E. O. G. Ord, were dramatic.
He was an aide on the staff of General
Hawkins and throughout the day of the
battle was active and energetic in get
ting troops up the line. He was right
in the front rank when the Sixth, Thir-
teenth, Twenty-fourth and Sixteenth
regiments made their desperate charge
on San Juan hill and was one of the
first officers to reach the summit.
Just as he passed the brow of the hill
he saw a Spaniard lying on the ground
and pointing to him said: ''Take care
of that man.
The Spaniard saw the motion and ev-
identity thinking Lieut.. Ord was order
ing him killed he raised his rifle and
shot the lieutenant dead.
The soldiers of the Sixth infantry, as
Lieut. Ord was an officer of that regi-
ment and very popular with the men,
were wild with rage and literally tore
the body of the Spaniard to pieces with
bullets. Then they kicked it into a
trench.

DIED TOGETHER.
Arthur Jones of EmpOria Kills
Himself
After Numbering Mary Leish-
man of Scranton.
BODIES FOUND TODAY
Lying Side by Side in the
Grand Stand
At SOden's Grove, South of
EmpOria.

Emporia, July This morning at z
o'clock Coroner Boylan was notified
that two dead bodies were LYING in the
grand stand at Soden's Grove, one mile
south of the city
Investigation proved them to be
Arthur Jones of Emporia and Mary
Leishman of Scranton, Kan. She had
been here most of the time for over a
year. Jones' people live here. His
father is a stone mason.
They were seen together several
times during the last few days.
An envelope was found that merely
gave their names. and the address, in
this city of Jones.
The bodies were lying together, she
with bullet hole in her forehead and
another in the side below the heart
He hs d a bullet hole in his breast near
the heart. All the wounds were badly
powder marked.
A .32-calibre pistol was lying between
them with three empty chambers and
the balance still loaded.
There is no doubt that 1t Is a case of
murder and suicide, Jones killing the
girl and then himself. Both were Is
years old.
She is said to have been married when
she was 13 or IA before coming here to
a man named Hobbs who is now some
where in western Kansas.
