THE CHINESE WAY.
Lord Bcrcsford Relates an Incident
of Their Military Engineerings
Cassier's Magazine.
How imiofa room still remains in China
for the exercise of educational effort was
Illustrated recently in an Interesting man
ner by Lord Charles Beresford, in an ad
dress before i&e Institution of Mechanical
Engineers.
In the arsenal at Shanghai he happened
to notice a Krupp gun fitted with an
Armstrong breechpiece. He was told
that this had been rendered necessary
because the Chinese had blown oft the
original breechpiece, and on going to a
fort upon the river, in charge of a man
darin, he found out how the accident hap
pened. They were using for the 67-ton
guns a powder -which was quite unsuit
able, and be said: "That powder will
blow the breechpiece off." The mandarin
nodded, smiled and answered: "Yes, it
does." The last time the gun was flred,
he said, it killed 14 men; so then they
loaded another gun and fired it, and that
time 2A men. were killed. These guns
must have cost In. mounting and breech
ing at least 50,000.
At another place he found that the gun
was actually loaded in the magazine, and
he said: "If there were any carelessness
in sponging the gun after firing, the mag
azine would be blown up." The mandarin
in charge gave him a slap on the back
and replied: "You are one of the clever
est men I have ever met The year before
last we did fire these guns, and we blew
up the magazine just as you have said.
I will show you where it was." The man
darin added that be did not remember
how many men were killed, but he be
lieved it was 50.

A general rjse in temperature has taken place

try west of the Rocky mountains and .Montana
and the Dakotas east of them. Rain has been
General in the past 12 hours over British Co
lumbia, Washington, Eastern Oregon and
Northern California. The rain and warmer

to oppose it, it will continue toward the East
rari'ily. The high pressure which so long
barred its progress is now far to the south.
