MIGHT BLOW HIMSELF ITP.
Latest Germ D seovered, and a Dan
gerous One, is Gunpowder Worm.
Paris, France, Jan. 1. The gun
powder worm is the latest zoological
novelty. Its discovery. Indeed, is so
recent that it has not yet been scien

the "B" powder, which caused the ex
plosion on the war ships Iena 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 ta
ken on board French warships since
the Liberte catastrophe.
Outs'de the powder magazines are
placed test phials containing speci
mens of the various powders restored
In the magazines. These phials are
looked upon as a ind of barometer in
dicating the changes this class of
powder may undergo owing to varia
tions in the temperature or to humid
ity. It was while one of these phials
was being examined on board the war
ship Bouvert that the gunpowder
worm's existence was revealed.
