liaae. Testa of the exploaive by the
Inventor are aald to have been very aat-
iefactory, and it may prove to lie the
material the army has been seeking.
Besides tho'ite, the ordnance depart­
ment of the army has Ireen experiment-
Ing with jovite, emmonsite and dry
and wet guncotton, paying more atten­
tion to tl e last named explosive than
to any other. Ho far none of them has
given the result« desired before adop­
tion for service use.

.Military oflioera in England have ap­
parently been unable to eecure all the
information concerning the explosive
the authorities would like to have. It
is recalled that emmenaile, discovered
in and uaed by France, waa kept a se­
cret, but tine government finally ob­
tained infoimation of its ingredients
and has been testing it for aome years
al Sandy llook.
Teals of jovite were made by the
army officials several years ago and
were not very successful. The navy
department has tested thorite with con­
siderable success, and if it continues to
Im satisfactory it may lie adopted by

New York, July 8.—Charles M,
Murphy, of the Klugs Cminty Wheel­
men. Kale s mil« on a bicycle. pa<e-l
by a locomotive, in 67 4-6 seconds to­
day. His course wsa a two-mlle Ima'd
track on a siding of the I-ong l.laml
railway. Murphy followed an engine
and a day coach, th« latter lieirig pro­
vided with a hood, which acted as a
wind shield for the rider. The board
track was laid near .Maywood, L. I.,
ami extended fiom that station two
miles east, and was aa nearly perfect lo
a level a« ’kill could niuke il. Fully
8,000 |M-opk< suw Murphy make his dar­
ing tide.
Engineer Ham Booth had his hand
on the throttle of engine 74 when the
word was given to start al 6:10. The
engine started at a rapid rate, and be­
fore 400 yards had been traversed, was
running at a rale of more that! 50

well within th« hoorl. As they neared

pac« wan a mil« a minute, and a cloud
of duet obscured everything from llie
view of th« spectators, who lined tliu
banks on either side.
On entering tliis pace, which would
teat hie 3)ie»l, Murphy, in reply to a
query, ehout»J: "l’m all right, send
her along." but there was no necessity
fol his remark« ae to speed, aa the en-
ginner was «ending Die big «team fly«r
along at top spe»l. The quarter was
readied in 16 seconds, and the half in
2U 2-6. The lime for the three-quar­
ter« was 44. At th« finish, two of tlm
watches «liowed 67 4 6, one 67 8-5, an-
otlmr 6M and the flftli 67 3-4, which
was belli by Hheriff ('reamer. The
timers agree.) that Murphy had coveiwl
tlm distance in 67 4-6 seconds.
Those on the back platform who had
watdmd Murphy all through his won­
derful ride stated
tiial the rider's
handle bars had knocked againrt tlm
rubber buffet al least six times and
each tinm tlm concussion sent him back
fully six feet, but Murphy always had
strength enough to regain thia distance.
During tlm last quarter of a mile,
tlm rider covered the ground for the
greater part fully a wheel’s length out­
side of tlm hiHul, but aa Im passed Dm
finish he was clowe up. Just then two
strong men on I ma rd the train reaclmd
down and seised the rider hy either
arm and lifted him aboard the car in
safety. Their action undoubtedly saved
Murphy's life, because he was then in
such a weak condition that had he been
allowed to remain on the wheel ho
would liav« been nnabla to contiol it,
and a serious, if not fatal, accident
might have happened.
Murphy was carried to the front part
of tlm car ami laid oil a cot where a
physician ailministeted to him, and in
less than five minutes the cycliat was
able to converse with those around him.
M nrpby seemed dated at first, and
said, in answer lo queries ae to why he
fell back so many times: "1 did that
so that 1 might not eome in oontact
with tlm planks which were being torn
up in front of me."
Later on, howovei, he did n<
