York, consisting of two monster 16-inch
guns OF the pattern tested at Sandy Hook
last week shall be called Christie nsen
Battery in honor Of Caallas A fred Chris
Hansen, master me- hanic OF the Water
viiet arsenal. When the nation was re-
joicing over the complete success of the
largest gun ever made, Fh"iS+'nse~o =
whose skill and great technical knowledge
the success was due, dle.. lro.A. is>.4 ,4ss.'s
of che brain. caused by the strain under
which his mind had been working for
weeks while the responsible work was I'M
der way. So accurately had he done his
work that the actual pressure proved to
be $4,000 pounds per square inch, exactly
what was estimated by the designers.
This monster cannon which is 49Aa feet
long. weighs 1870 tons and throws a pro-
jectile weighing $500 pounds a distance Of
.0h miles, cost s1S0,OO0, but it would have
cost $4,000 more but for Christiansen's
presence of mind and resourcefulness at a
critical stage of the work. So keenly did
he feel the great responsibility placed in
him that he sacrificed himself in every
| way to insure complete success. After
he had superintendent the transportation
of the immense gun on a specially con-
structed barge. his energies were spent
and death followed.
Charles Alfred Christensen was ma
| tive Of Christiania, Norway and studied
mechanical engineering in Christiania
completing his education in France, Eng
land and Scotland. He came to Phila-
delphia In 1878 where he worked two years
and secured a position in the government
arsenal at Watertown, Mass. Since 1885,
he had been master mechanic at Water.

en-. King Oscar has been compelled to
relinquish the crown to Prince Gustaf as
regent, and at last accounts his mind
was seriously affected. His youngest son,
Prince Engen, Is dangerously i'll with tn

her condition also causes alarm.
On account of King Oscars advanced

treated as such, some simple salve, wash
or powder being used in the hope of dry
ing them up and stopping the discharge;
but while the place may temporarily scab
over, it again inflames and testers, be-
coming as bad or worse than ever. After
awhile the deadly poison begins to eat
into the surrounding flesh and the sore
spreads with frightful rapidity. Then the
sharp shooting pains, which distinguish
the cancerous from the common ulcer,
are felt, and the unfortunate patient is
brought face to face with the most dread
