Many of these serials, such as "Lucille Love," "Broken Coin," and "Peg o' the Ring," have been seen inthis city, and therefore it will be of particular interest to the patrons of the Strand to follow the adventures of Miss Cunard and Mr. Ford in the latest of their produe- tions, "The Purple Mask," a drama in sixteen episodes, depicting the story of Pat, a daring young woman who, in an effort to assist her aunt, becomes involved with the lice.

Trenton, April 9.--On Monday Wilfrid Gosleigh procured a number of explosive caps, which are used in tearing out gravel in the gravel pit. They were supposed to be kept in a secret place, but it is rumored some boys, including Gosléigh, found them and he tco% them home nof knowing, possibly, the danger of handling ex- plosives. He was trying to extricate the filling of the cap with a wire, when it exploded, severing his hand from his left arm and disembowling him. The accident occurred at his fathers' home in a shed behind the house. He was taken 'nto his home and all that medical aid could do was done, but unavailing. He lived seven hours. His funeral took place from St. Peter-in-chains Church, Wednes- day morning. A Distressing Occurrence.
