That Come From Up River.

Colonel F. e. Hobbs, commandant
of Rock Island arsenal, has taken steps
to Investigate the reports of danger to
residents of the vicinity of WATERFOWL
and Hampton from shells fired in test
ing guns at the arsenal. 1t is found
that there is some ground for complaint,
but assurance has been given that the
chances of harm being done are reduc-
ed to the minimum. There is no other
place suitable for testing ground, and
it is necessary to try the guns. They
are so aimed, however, that the mis-
siles almost without exception fall in
the water, some of them going as far
as Hampton, however, before doing so.
Careful watch is kept of the river, and
it is scanned with field glass before
charge is fired to make sure that
there is no one on the water within
possible range.
