Dynamite cartridges are so hard nor

When softened too much the dynamite
becomes excessively unstable, through
the leakage Of nitro -glycerine. The

One Of these needed reforms is gen.

the other Is specific, and to the average

been long ago effected.
This smaller, more definite and prae-
ticable reform Is simply this--after a
jury has been empaneled, and a case

ors ought not to stop the case. The

superstition. There is no especial vir-

seven jurors would ordinarily do entire

death, writing to the mayor of st. Ma

that the town would grant him on the
west point, of the rock Of Grand bay n
space sufficient for his burial. To this
island rock, accessible only at low tide,
the body of the great French littera-
teur was brought at his death.
A granite cross marks the spot. At
high tide the rock becomes an island,

against this lonely grave. The fiftieth

The inhabitants of Palestine made
use in very ancient times of the sling
the most skillful in its use being the

never to miss their aim. What makes
their skill appear more surprising was
that they managed to sling with the left
hand. The men who came to David's
