Pensacola, Fla, April 14.-By the ex-
plosion Of 1000 pounds Of powder in
] the after 12-inch turret and the han
I ding room Of the battleship Missouri,
Capt William 8. Cowles, commanding,
20 men were instantly killed and five
injured, of whom two will die. The
Missouri was on the target range with
the Texas and Brooklyn at practice
yesterday when charge Of powder in
the 12-inch left-hand gun ignited from
gases, exploded and dropping below
ignited four charges Of powder in the
handling room and all exploded. Only
I one man Of the entire turret and han
ding crew survived. But for the
prompt and efficient action of Capt.
Cowles in flooding the handling room
and magazine with water one of the
magazines would have exploded and
the ship would have been destroyed.
Before the fumes of the burning
powder had left the turret officers and
men were lifting out the dying and
dead men. Three minutes after the
explosion all were on deck and the sur
geons from the Missouri, Texas and
Brooklyn were attending to those not
dead. The rs men of the turret were
found lying in heap. They had start
ed for the exit when the first explosion
occurred and had just reached there
when the more terrible explosion In
the handling room occurred, which
burned and strangled them to death.
Fhe bodies were hardly recognizable,
the terrible and quick fire having
burned the clothing from the bodies
of the. men and the flesh hung from
them in shreds. The faces were mutt

verdl,s First Opera.

Someone has unearthsd story of
Verdi's early days which is cap
ital illustration of his shrewdness
and admirable business instinct. He
was young and practically unknown.
and had great difficulty in getting
his m abdco donosor Droduc=
ed. At last, however, it found its
way on to the boards Of La Scala,
and the first performance was a
brilliant success. The young COM
poser went to bed triumphant, Wis
ions of future successes whlrling
through his head. Early the next
morning he woke up to find we'll
known music publisher standing by
his bedside. The latter had come
to make a bid for "Nabucodonosor,"
and was determined to be first in
the field. After the usual congrat-
ulations the publisher asked Verdi
what he would take for his opera.
Verdi looked as if he were half
asleep. but as matter of fact he
was exceedingly wide awake. "Thir-
ty thousand francs" he replied,
Thirty thousand frncs!" cried the
publisher. why, you must be out
of your mind-you, an unknown
composer, to ask such fee as
that" my dear SIR replied
Verdi, eff 'Nabucodonosor' is good
enough to get you out of bed at s
in the morning, it is worth thirty
Thousand francs. AS you have taken
SO much trouble about it you shall
have it for that, but warn you
that by the evening it will be worth
fifty thousand"

Rotating wheat and Potatoe..

There have been all sorts of results
with wheat following potatoes, and
such results have largely followed
closely in accordance with the. fertil-
izers used. Naturally, as wheat does
best on soil which has been well
worked and prepared, following the
potato crop with wheat offerr every
chance for good crop of the cereal,
but always provided the proper fer
tilizers are applied and in considerable
quantity, for it must be remembered
that the potato crop has not left much
Of the applied fertilizer for any fol.
lowing crop, and second, tlrat the &C.
ton of the fertilizer will necessarily
be slower during the season in which,
the wheat gets its start. III following
potatoes with wheat try ti.is plan.
Rake off the potato tops, and with thr
harrow level the soil and Loosen it tn
the depth of two or three inches; thcl,
roll the ground and drill In the seed
with 200 pounds to the AGRA of some
commercial fertilizer rich in phcs-
phoric acid. The potato tors may y,

and will materially help the wheat.
Rather a radical way of Doing thi.
work, perhaps, but it has paid well
with many farmers hence " worth a
trial.
