Fires Into Giant Powder.

'A terrific explosion was caused In Bisbee, Ariz., by John McNally, aged fourteen, who fired into a box of giant powder with a rifle. The powder was in a mining shaft thirty feet deep and the boy stood at the opening and fired. The explosion threw the boy thirty feet and severed his head from his body. The shaft was wrecked.
