Stuart could see from the little window

QUEER ACCIDENTS TO GUNS.
Mishaps on "A British Battleship That
Caused Fear Among
the Crew

While the British battleship Thun-
derer was off Milford Haven, Wales,
not long ago a curious accident to
one of her guns caused much alarm
among her crew. A target had been
put out for practice with the ten-inch
breechloading guns. When one was
fired by electricity only portion of
the projectile was discharged, the
base plate of the shot and a portion
of the frame being left in the gun.
When the plate was removed the pres.
sure of gas forced a portion Of the
proiectile from the breech of the gun.
On the second gun being fired hole
about three inches in diameter was
blown through the projectile, the
other part of the base plate being left
behind. The base plate was in this
case separated from the rest of the
projectile.
Such accidents are believed never
previously to have occurred on board
any ship. There was much alarm
among those in the turret, as the
bursting of the guns was for a time
feared. 1t is suggested that either
the powder in the projectiles was
damp or there was water in the guns.
So far as can be seen both guns are
sound.

FOUND IN AN OLD STUMP.
Original Manuscript of the Book OF
Mormon Is Discovered in
Illinois.

Considerable excitement has been
created recently in southern Illinois
over discovery made by Marshal PEN
rod, who lives on a farm close to the
village of Dongola, in Union county,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean. Penrod
in digging a black stump out of po-
tato field, close TO his residence, found
astone which was about foot long and
eight inches in diameter. The peculiar
shape of the stone, which resembled a
pocketbook, attracted his attention,
and upon close examination he found
carved on its face in English the fol-
lowing words: This stone contains
the original manuscript of the book Of
the Mormon. Joseph Smith"
The ravages of time had apparently
made little Roadway on the stone, and
upon close examination he found the
stone was hollow. A hole had been
drilled entirely through it, and at both
ends red cedar plugs had been driven.
Upon removing cue of the plugs, sever
al sheets of paper, containing writing
in hieroglyphics that could not be de-
ciphered, were found. The characters
are peculiar, following no known line
of ancient writing.
At the bottom Of the last page was
found written in English: THE finder
of this manuscript will deliver the
same to the elders of the Mormon
church." The stone still remains with
Mr.. Penrod and already communica-
ton has been made with the Salt Lake
church, giving the Incidents of the find.
1t is thought the Mormon church will
take steps at once to secure the stone
and also the manuscript.

INSURANCE AGENCY.
NAMES CANNING INDUSTRY,
One Hundred and Seventy-Five Fac
tories That Pay $1,4OO,OOO
Year in Wages.

According to the report of Hon.
S. w. Mathews, state industrial and
labor commissioner, the Pine Tree
state is the champion saroine canning
community of the country and is third
on the list Of states that can sweet
corn. In fact, Maine is the only
state engaged in the industry of put
ting up small herring and other suit
able fish as sardines. There are about
IFS canning factories within its Dor
ders, the value of which is about
$1,214,90O, and give employment to
$4,000 operatives. The amount of
wages paid in 1899 was about 81 ,400,-
900; to the farmers for corn, 1881 900,
and the value of the entire output
of all the factories was S., 3O6,OS9 dur
ing the year, quotes the New York
Sun.
Over 1000 acres were planted to
sweet corn in 1899. The canning of
clans, blueberries, apples, beans,
squash, pumpkin and small fruits
seems to be on the increase, accord
ing to Mr.. Mathews report, and he
does not see any good reason why
the industry should not increase
largely in the packing of these arti-
Giles. He also says that it appears to
be generally conceded that the corn,
apples and berries of Maine are SUI
perior in quality to TIE same products
in other states. owing, doubtless, to
climatic conditions. In every kind of
canning men, women and children are
paid remunerative wages, and the
canning factories give to many poor
families their only opportunity fol
earning money.
