TURPENITE ADDS HORROR

A group of German officers loung-
ing around an impromptu card table
behind a haystack. A line of German
infantry men crouching in the nearby
rifle trenches. All of them-riflemen
and card players alike stone dead.
Dead, with no mark of violence, with
no sign of pain. So runs a despatch.
And other dispatches tell of similar
scenes. - ~
This press cablegram from Paris,
dated September 20, Of this year,
throws odd light on the foregoing
scene:
Eugene Turpin, inventor of melin-
lite, has come forward with new ex-
plosive, which he declares much more
powerful. = r. s. ....-.s...... =.

as "Turpinite," and is supposed to

as gas so powerful that twhen the
shell containing it explodes) instant
death is spread to all breathing ere
atures within a radius of almost a
quarter mile.
This is not Turpin's first experience
in an international clash. More than
20 years ago he was thrown into a
French prison on a charge of selling
to the British a dangerous explosive.
The explosive was melinite. Turpin
had invented it 1t belonged to the
French government. Turpin was
charged with disposing of melinite's

martialed and sentenced to four years
Imprisonment, to pay fine of $500 and
to lose his civil rights for five years.
This was in June, 1891. - =
Turpin denied his guilt He said
the formulas secret was his own, not
Frances; that he had offered to sell

of these games. This was decided
yesterday by the Athletic Association.
The principal, DIR. Ferguson, has had
"a very deep interest in the develop

citation to take this action. Indeed
the school was practically forced to
make these forfeits because of having
