their presence, possibly the first hint

old horse points his ears forward and

But when riding in a new country

To start a fresh bunch Of wild
horses and actually run all OF them
down generally requires two or three

gefOuS One, Is GunpoWuer worm.
Paris, France, Jan. 1.-The gum
powder worm is the latest geological
novelty. Its discovery, indeed, is SO
recent that it has not yet been scien-
tifically classified. 1t flourishes in
the "B" powder, which caused the ex-
plosion on the war ships lena and
Liberte, and was first found by some
sailors who were So astonished that
they became temporarily speechless.
In fact, the gunpowder worm resem-
bles the earth worm. The body is
white, but the head is red
The discovery of this creature was
due to certain precautions that are ia
ken on board French warships since
the Liberte catastrophe.
Outside the powder magazines are
placed test phials containing speci-
mems of the various powders restored
in the magazines. These phials are
looked upon as ind of barometer in
dicating the changes this class of
powder may undergo owing to varia-
tons in the temperature or to humid
ity. 1t was while one of these phials
was being examined on board the war
ship Bouvert that the gunpowder
worms existence was revealed.
