row Escape From Extinction.
The breaking of three reservoirs in
the town Of Shelton, Conn.,, caused
damage estimated at between $4,000
and 500, 900, and there were several
narrow escapes from death.
The torrent tore q great gully ITO
fet long and thirty feet wide through
Howe avenue. Logs and trees and
huge cakes Of ice were carried along
and crashed into several buildings.
The house Of Walter Nichols was
struck by the food. Nichols was away
and his wife was awakened by the
ice crashing against the door. A few
minutes later the water commenced
to flow into the bed rooms, where six
children were sleeping. Mrs. Nichols
hurried to the door and held 1t shut
while her children escaped to an up

escaped, just before the water forcec

The family remained prisoners In the

with riot cartridges" This Is a new
form Of ammunition prepared by the

loss Of life to the innocent Ly-
stander."
The shell is like that Of the regular
shell used in the army rife, with the
important exception that instead OF
the long nickel-plated and steel-clad
bullet, two balls are placed in the
mouth. The design was apparently to
secure something of greater range
than buckshot, yet not dangerous TO
persons at a distance. The cartridge
Is charged with about thirty -four
grains OF smokeless powder. The balls
are made of a mixture OF lead and tin
in proportion Of 16 to l, and are slight
ly coated with parafflne.

Arms Being Imported Into Celestial
Kingdom by Foreign Nations.
Representations have been made to
the state department by the Russian
ambassador, Count Cassini, regarding
the increasing seriousness of the sit
uation In China, in the hope that the
United States will cooperate with the
other powers to stop the illegal i'm
portation Of arms, which has reached
an alarming stage of activity. Similar
representations have been made
through the Russian representatives to
Belgium, Germany and Great Britain.
The Chinese officials claim they are
powerless to stop the practice and the
Russian government, In the interest of
peace, has called the matter to the at
tention Of the powers. Secretary Hay
and the Russian ambassador have had
several conferences on the matter but
1t has not been decided just what
course the United States. under the
constitution, can take toward prevent
ing the expectation of arms. It is
probable that the only relief lies in
special legislation by congress. which
Is deemed impossible at this session.
