river. During the last decade small wood
en- houses have sprung up in the vicinity,
crowding near TO the two magazines until
they surrounded them, except on the river
side. The nearest house was scarcely fifty
feet from the powder depot.
One of the magazines was just within the
roadside fence while the other was 100 feet
behind it near the bank OF the river. Both
magazines ordinarily contained two or
three tons of gunpowder in tin kegs, each
keg being about eighteen inches and foot
in diameter.
HOW IT HAPPENED.
The company has for some time been
desirous of strengthening the floor of the
magazine nearest the street, and this morn
ing three employees of the company, three
expressmen and two carpenters were
sent there with three wagons to take out
the powder and mend the floor. Two of the
trucks were loaded when the explosion
occurred.

his assistants, Amadee Boulanger, escaped
death, although within fifty feet of the
magazine. Boulanger was injured and
taken to hospital. He said that the men
went down to the magazine nearest the
street to fix the floor and after two wagons
had been loaded with powder it was dis
covered that a can of nitroglycerin which
was stored in the magazine was leaking.
Mr.. Goodwin picked up what he though
was a jug of water and began to pour it

NOTED ARMLESS HORSEMAN.
How w. B. Denny Handled
Spirited Equines.

The late w, B. Denny, known Ear
and wide as the ''Armless Horseman,"
long a resident Of Washington, lost his
arms by the premature discharge of a.
salute over the body of General George
II. Thomas, says the New York Times.
For many years he had position i'll
the war department, but year ago he
resigned TO give his whole time TO his
horses. He was a cavalryman during
the war and always had great fond
ness for horses. He had owned and
driven some of the finest singles and
teams seen i'll Washington.
His courage and skill with mettle-
some, highly bred animals was re-
markable. He was q familiar 1Gure
on the streets of the capital and often
drove and won on the race tracks of
the District and adjourning states. His
driving was marvellous, in that he
seemed to accomplish his conquest Of
the worst horse by talking, to him and
so gaining his confidence. When be
undertook to drive a strange and Sp1r-
tied team or to break young horse he
first saw that every strap and buckle
was at it's proper place; then he placed
one rein over his right shoulder and
the other beneath his left arm, the two
reins being made fast with a strong
buckle turned under so that it was
impossible to slip or come loose. With
the stub of his arms he was able to
guide the animals The weight Of his
body against the reins brought the
horses to a slow up if they got fast and
fretful Twisting his shoulders and
body from side to side, seesawing the
bits in the mouths until the horses
were willing to quiet down and trot
gently along, he was able to manage
them.
Last spring some of the owners OF
fast steppers had number of races at.
Brightwood Driving park, Mr.. Denny's
late home, and he had a team entered
in a trotting race. The young man
who was to drive showed in the line up
that Mr.. Denny's team had bad
chance to win. Mr.. Denny became ir-
ritated at the stupid horsemanship'
and, ordering the young fellow out OF
the sulky, jumped in, adjusted the
reins in a twinkling and succeeded IN
getting a good position, winning the
race easily. Many of the best horse
men in the District and number from
elsewhere were present, and all de-
clared that they had never witnessed
snch q fine exhibition on any track.

MELONS ON A PEACH TREE.
Uncle Billie Somers' New Idea
For Annual Garden Freak.

If Uncle Billie Somers, who has a
smaH truck farm at Churchtown, near
Pennsville, N. j., does not surprise his
neighbors each season in growing
something of the freakish nature he
puts it down as poor season, says the
Philadelphia Press, Growing water
melons in boot legs, citrons in bed
springs and sQuashes with Inscriptions
on them is his hobby, but this year he
has succeeded in filling a peach tree
with watermelons.
Surrounded with blushing peaches in
one large tree several nearly ripe wa
termelons are hanging, OF, rather, prop
ped up, and the sight is remarkable
one
Uncle Billie has always had water
melons at Christmas time. He has a
knack of keeping them in good condi-
ton and generally invites his friends to
the feast. He says when the time
comes that he can't beat his neighbors
with something new he is ready to quit.

A PULSE CONTROLLER.
Surgeons Invention Gives Warm
ing of Danger to Patients.

DR.. Gartner of Vienna, professor of
experimental pathology, has invented
an apparatus called a pulse control
ler," intended to watch and register the
action of the heart and pulse while
patient is under the influence of chlOro-
form, cocaine or ether, says the New
York American and Journal. The appa-
ratus consists Of a watchlike box, to be
attached to the patients forearm.
The box has a graduated dial and
hands, working according to the pulse
and blood pressure vibrations, which
are registered by an elastic spring IN
the most precise manner Imaginable
The physician in attendance, or opera
tor respectively, is all the time kept In
formed of the exact degree of the I'M
conscious persons pulse and heart ac-
ton. The controller Furthermore shows
the action Of pulses which the physi-
clans finger cannot feel or find; it feels
the pulse Of every drop Of blood circu-
lating in the arm. The entire blood and
heart action is precisely and continu-
ously photographed on the dial.
A mum erof medical authorities We're
interviewed. All of them declared that
the pulse controller would do away
with the danger of death in narcosis
as it IS able to give most timely warn
ing Of approaching heart failure-give
it so early and state conditions so accu-
rately that the attending doctors can
take preventive measures betimes. DR.
Gartner himself said that he hoped pa
tents and physicians alike would be
benefited by his invention.
THE first may now submit to opera
tons without the haunting fear of go
ing to sleep never to wake again." he
said GAS to the doctors. they are rid
Of great, absorbing care and can de-
vote themselves more closely to their
surgical work. Remember, operations
sometimes last for hours. 1t puts an
awful additional strain on the superin-
tending physician to watch the pulse
all the time Many operators have told
me that the constant watch tired their
brains more than the case itself"
Up to now one among every 1000
chloroformed or cocained people has
lost his life by heart failure, manual
control of the heart and pulse functions
and close observation Of the pupils of
the eyes failing at times.

RUSSIA'S NEW CITY.
LanghOrne Believes Dalny Has
an Unlimited Future.

''TheN Building of Dalny'' is the sub
iect of a special article by Mr.. M. M.
Langhof7le, commercial agent OF the
United States, recently issued by the
department of commerce and labor as
an advance sheet of the consular re-
ports, says the New York Herald.
Mr.. I.anghorne tells the story of the
enterprise displayed by the Russian
government in building a great COM
mercial city on the eastern shore OF the
Lia0tung peninsula about twenty miles
froIn Port Arthur and within territory
leased by the Chinese government 10
Russia on March 81, 1898.
Commanding situation equal to- that
of Port Arthur. Dalny Is believes by
Mr.. Ianghorne to have an unliIaited
future. since the Russian. lease includes
harbor that is being converted into
one of the best in the world. The city
is the southern terminus OF the Chinese
Eastern railway and the headquarters
of the company. In fact, the city Is
being constructed by the Chinese East
ern Railway company under the direo-
ton of the Russian minister of finance
NJ. Witte
Dalny is. divided into three parts-the
administration city, the European andt
commercial city and the Chinese city
The administration city borders on the
harbor and bay and is 10S acres in ex-
tent. All space in that quarter is re-
served for the use of the Chinese East
ern Railway company and its officials.
One of the features giving soidity to
the industrial future of Dalny is the
fact that it manufactures nearly every
thing in the way Of materials used in
building.
The harbor is the scene OF the great
est activity at present, The small mar
Dor has been dredged to depth of
eighteen feet, and the pier for coast
steamers, which has been in use for
over a year, is nearly completed ana
has a railroad to its end. Trains are
now in operation from St Petersburg
AVID Moscow to Dalny.
Japan furnishes the bulE of the coal

sene. Korea and the United States the
