AnUnder-Water Magazine.

CAPTAIN G. A. Converse of the navy,
| summoned as a witness, testified he had
made study of the ma tural effects OF ex-
plosives. Being shown blue print of the
forward magazine and shell room Of the
Maine, and asked if one or more torpe-
does should explode or partially explode
it would lift the forward part Of ship
partly out of the water, he replied that
he did not think 1t would Being shown
sketches Of the forward magazine and
asked if their explosion or partial explo-
sion would leave the bottom of the Maine
in the condition 1t was shown in the
Sketches, he stated that the distortion of
the keel of the Maine was too far forward
and too remote from the magazine to have
been caused by their explosion. He was
of the opinion that the bending Of the
plates on the Maine could be produced by
the explosion of a submarine mine con-
tanning a large amount Of the lower ex-
plosive gunpowder or similar-not in con-
tact with the ship but some distance be-
low it, perhaps on the bottom. Contin-
uing he said he had never in his expert
elce seen any interior explosion that was
possible to produce the effect upon the
Maine.
DO you think that necessarily there
must have been an underwater mine to
produce these explosions?'
indications are that an underwater
explosion produced the conditions there"
was the reply. With further statements
regarding the impossibility, in his opinion,
of an external explosion causing the
Names wreck, his testimony was closed.
No Electric Wire Trouble.
Lieutenant George F. G. Holman, who
performed the duty of navigator and ord
nance officer, and was in charge of the
electric plant, testified that all possible
precaution was taken to prevent accident.
the temperature of the magazine was
taken daily.
The electric wires were separated from
the magazine by a double plating of glass
He noticed nothing at the time of the ex-
plosion 20 indicate that anything was the
matter with the electric works.
The examiner referred to Holman's
large experience in matters of explosives
and asked his impression of the whole
affair. H said:
MY impression, not yet verified by
divers findings, is that very heavy mine
went off under the Names bottom. The
noise produced by a heavy mine would be
great in itself and adding to the second
explosion would make the two practically
one and the same explosion"

Than teeth of pearly whiteness, no
matter how otherwise inattractive a
person may be, if the teeth are glisten-
ing beauties, the rest of the defects are
sure to disappear.
Half of the secret of Pearly Teeth lies
in using the right kind of dentifrice-
the other half in using the proper
brushes.
We keep the best dentifrices we can
find. but the one your dentist recon-
mends is ''Euthymol Paste" You
ought to use it.
We have Tooth Brushes in varying
