In an experiment to test the effect
of an unconined explosion of high
explosive nitroglyce, inc, the monitor
Puritan was badly damaged in Hamp-
ton Roads, off Fortress Monroe,
Va, after two charges of 200 pounds
each had been exploded against her
after turret and side In a sinking
condition the vessel was rushed to the
Norfolk navy yard.
In the first test the armor of the
aft turret was badly cracked. In the
second explosion, which was against
the side OF the snip aft the armor
plate was badly stove and bad leaks
developed below the water line, food
ing at least one big compartment of
the ship.
Inventor Isham declared that high
explosives with great outside concus-
sion are more dangerous than inside
explosives Captain knight. Rear Ad-
miral Mason and some Of the others
who witnessed the experiment ac-
knowledged that much more damage
was done than they had anticipated.
Captain Knight said the second exp!o-
sion was very severe.

Flies From ship over Sea to Land.

FileS FROM snip over Sea to Land.
Eugene B. Ely, the aviator, made the
first successful flight from the deck
of a naval vessel when his Curtis bi
plane was started from a temporary
launching platform upon the forward
deck of the scout cruiser Birmingham,
which was anchored in Hampton
Roads, off Old Point Comfort, Va. It
was the most spectacular flight ever
seen in this country.
After many hours of preparation Ely
finally climbed into his machine. He
had been delayed for several hours by
flurries of hail and rain. He was anx-
ious, however, to start in spite of the
adverse weather conditions. Finally
his aeroplane was started down the
platform, which was ned at an an
gle of about five degrees. His machine
gathered momentum rapidly, Ely maxi
ing a slight miscalculation in control.
ing the levers. which made mis- ma
chine dart down toward the water.
He saw the land directly ahead of
Willoughby Split and descended there
without difficulty. He covered about
five miles in little more than five
minutes. His machine travelled at the
rate of about fifty-five miles an hour. A
launch from the scout cruiser picked
Ely up and placed him on board the
destroyer Roe, on which he returned
| to the Norfolk navy yard.

Glass Trust Makes Workers Pay Fine.
Attorney General Wickersham ex
hibited much Indignation at Washing
ton at the published announcements
that the Imperial Window Glass COM
pany, of Pittsburg, popularity known
as the window glass trust" intends
to cut the wages of 500 to 700 en-
plOyes 80 per cent, as a result of the
fines which a federal court recently
imposed upon the corporation. it's off,
GERS and directors.
The court fined the corporation
S2500 and the officers and directors
small amounts, making about $4,000
in all.
The attorney general confessed his
disappointment at the small amount
Of the fines imposed. The company
and it's officers, he said, were under
criminal indictments, to which they
pleaded guilty.
The department of justice charged
that the combine had raised the prices
Of window glass from 70 to 100 per
cent in less than year, and was in
SlSllHS OH SuDSIdHJldl punishment. OH6
Of the results of the courts action is
that Mr.. Wickersham is convinced that
the breaking up of alleged criminal
trusts must be accomplished through
actual Jail sentences rather than fines,
and the department, 1t is declared,
will work for that end in the future
There is no way known to the de-
partment. Mr.. Wickersham said, by
which the corporation could be stop
ped from cutting the wages of its en-
ployes and attributing it's action to
the governments prosecution. but Mr.
Wickersham intimated that facts in
his possession offered opportunity to
proceed against some of the directors

A quarter gas meter was the cause

Late Thursday night the gas in the

Worcester correspondent of the Bos-

aged philanthropist, made when he
was S4 years old, and which has just
been filed for probate.
Mr.. Dodge. who died at the age Of
s6, had always taken a great interest

idea for many years was to found a
