Mighty Explosive.

It may sound like a joke. but it is
 nevertheless the truth that the tread of houseay Is sufficient to explode nitro gen iodide. It is not necessary that a
 fly should walk over the compound. 1t has only to let one foot come into con tact with the explosive, when the jolt causes it to explode and to blow the in sect into the air. Another manner in which the peculiar property of this ex- plosiEe can be demonstrated is by scat tering a small quantity of the dry powder over sheet of clean paper. It then resembles pepper and only needs few sharp breaths of the manipula~ tor-just sufficient to make them roll to cause each speck to ignite and ex- plode, meantime giving of long. thin column of dense purple smoke. If a barrelfuI of nitrogen iodide could be made it would have to be kept moist to prevent danger. By comparison gun powder is mild, innocent, inoffensive material Strand

 come in Jacksonville.

Jacksonville, Fla, Feb. 16.-Gover- nor Park Trammell, Florida's popular and accomplished chief executive, has given out letter for publication in the newspapers of the south, on the approaching reunion in this city, May 6, ', &, of the United Confederate Veterans Association. He assures the Confederate veterans and their friends that they will be given a gen erous welcome in Jacksonville, and at other points in the state which they may visit during their stay in Flori- da. The governors letter is as fol- lows:
 The Governors Welcome.
 It Is simple truth to affirm that the hearts of the people of Florida are overflowlng with qualification and pride over the fact that the revered heroes composing the United Confed- crate Veterans will hold their Annual Reunion this year in our States me- tropolis.
 The grand old heroes of the Gray will meet a magnificent, whole -souled reception in Jacksonville and at any other Florida points they may visit They will be amongst their own. They will be in an atmosphere thoroughly Southern. splendidly hospitable and highly appreciative of the honor of having been selected as the Reunion City and State.
 Florida IS rich in romance and tra dition, and in the loyalty of her people to high ideals and patriotic endeavors. In proportion to population and re- sources, Florida contributed as gen. erously and as cheerfully in men and Tn means to the support of the Con federate cause as did any other great commonwealths which so nobly cham pioned that righteous struggle. Flori- da gave so many great names to the mighty galaxy of the South's match less heroes, and she gave host of brave men of the ranks who on count less fields rendered valorous account of their courage and patriotism. The creditable part which the people of this state took in support of Southern defense is a source of pride to the survivors of the great conflict and of
