SANDY HOOK, N. J., Jan. 17—The largest and most powerful gun in the world was put to a test here this afternoon and it was demonstrated a complete success.

The gun was manufactured at the United States arsenal at Watervliet. It is 16 inches in bore, weight 12C tons its length is 49 feet 6 inches, and its range is twenty miles. The projectiles fired from this gun weigh 2,400 pounds. Its cost, including .turret an£ mounting, was $2,400,000.

The first shot was fired at 1:48 o'clock with a reduced charge of powder. The Bhell struck the water about half a mile -from shore raising a great column, of ^water"fully 50 feet in the air. Three seconds later another column of-water was suddenly thrown up three miles at sea. 'showing a right deflection of the shell.

The next shot fired half an hour later •was charged with six bags of smokeless powder. The shot struck nearer the shore than the first, deflected to the right and Tvas lost to view some three miles off shore. The third shot was as successful as the first two, though at a greater ^elevation.

Many prominent government officials were present at the test and many of lliem expressed their satisfaction at the successful tests.

Spectators Saw Them Glance Off tha Sea Miles From Shore and Then Disappear, c* ——.—

People 'Were Enthusiastic Over 'the Reproduction of the Great Panorama—History of^Play.

Mr. llarry Ellsworth Feicht, the lecturer who speaks at the Grand tonight on Oberammergau was seen last 'evening at the Terre Hauto House, and told some very interesting stories of. the play, as it is carried on at the Bavarian village. "The play yjauJkno.w," he said, "ta^s place only once• ^Ve^y. ten years. It is the result of a vow made to Providence by the people when they were once relieved of a plague, and the highest ambition of the people is to be worthy of, taking part in the play.'' "The people are all peasants arid1 engage in various forms of employment about the village. The girl who takes the part of Mary is a, field hand. In spite of this fact the ability of the players in the matter of acting is remarkable, and will compare favorably with that of the actors on any stage in the country. That which is largely responsible for this is the education which the people of the village receive during their whole lives for a chance to act in the great play. It is an end, and not an incident in their existence, and they would rather become an actor in the tragedy than achieve renown in any other field. So far is this education carried that the children are worked into the play when they are as joung as five years old. Otto Lang, the man who took the part of Clnistus in the last, play, although only twenty-five years old has nevertheless taken the part in the performance three times when he was five, fifteen and twenty-five.

It is not hard for all in the village, who so desire, to lake part in the performance. for there are CSS parts to be filled, and there are only 1,400 people in the village, from which to select the actors. Of the performers, 200 are women, 125 children and the rest men. The speaking parts number 125.

It is interesting that last year the stereoptican views of the lecturer were taken to Oberammergau and exhibited to the natives of the village, it-being the first time, that they had ever seen pictures transformed on a screen: Their delight in the exhibition was very great and they were loud in their praise of Mr. Feicht and his entertainment.

ARE OVER SIXTY CASES

SMALL POX HAS GAINED FOOTHOLD IN" THIS CITY

ONE NEW CASE LAST NIGHT

.\ -T

Health Officers Are Alert But Their Efforts Do Not Seerft ToAvail Much. -*sJ p!

Between sixty .and seventy cases of small pox are now "under strict quarantine in .Terre Haute and Vigo county, but a member of the board of health stated last night that thereWere in all probability as many more cases within the county unquarantined. The cases which an not- under quarantine are the mild attacks where no physician has been called, but i'roni which gt'h'e\ persons may contract the disease in its most malignant form.

:y

One more case was added to the list ,of? ci^^mtieftts at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The last victim is Linzie Graddis, age 29, and married, living with his wife at No. 118 North First street. He has a we]l developed case and was taken to the pest house by the sanitary officers last night.

Yesterday evening William Moore and wife and 'Squire Williams, the latter a seven old boy, were released from the county hospital, having served their thirty days. All have recovered from the effects of the disease but wjll bear the marks for years to come. They report good treatment at the hands of the board of health. _,

The case reported at the home' of William Oatey on South Twentieth street was diagnosed carefully by Dr. M. B. Vancleave yesterday evening and he decided that it was not small pox but vericella, more commonly kno.wn as chicken pox.

Dr. Vancleave will spend almost the entire day today visiting various parts of the county where suspects have been reported. One case is reported from Bloomtown, near the state line on the National road and another is at Sandford. The two Holmes families, residing on the Hulnian farm south of the city are said to have the disease and have been placed under temporary quarantine awaiting developments. Dr. Vancleave is being assisted in caring for the disease by Dr. Neal of Burnette and Dr. Dolton of Pimento.

All of the city sanitary officers worked until late last night caring for their patients but they will have little rest today as more cases are expected before the day is far advanced.

On account of the small pox scare in Linton township it is not probable that any "services will be held in the Baptist church at Pimento today. The schools in the neighborhood were closed by the board of health but the suspension of church sor vices,. if done, will b$, at^ the option of the people.

Street Car Patrons Complain of the Abuse Here—Should Be Stopped.

A. great many expressions of disgust over the laxity of the street car officials in preventing spitting on the floors of their cars are being heard on all sides. There is a law against this nasty and unsanitary habit and the street car company, according to the belief of not a few of the citizens, should see that it Is enforced.v

There seems to be scarcely any opposition to the custom what ever, and the habit Is so prevalent that strangers coming into the city remark-about It Terre Hattte being apparently about the only city in the country that tOWrates the nuisance. Aside from the filth of it, there is the menace to health.
