A Strange Explosion.
A Boston Drug store Blown M,

AT about seven O'Clock on Wednesday
evening oil last week. IA terrible explosion
occurred In the drug store OF J. ID. Dow
on the corner of Washington and La
Grange Streets In Boston. The first init
nation OF the disaster was sudden II ht-
ing up OF the lower story. and the explo-
sion followed Immediately. Such was its
force, that the walls were burst outward
in every direction and then fell IN one
mass. This. on account of the inf imnable
material, soon caught lire. The alarm was
sounded and the dre department by stren-
uous exertions finally extiuguished the
names. There were at the time. about Is
persons in the building or $ of whom
where taken out either dead or in dying
condition. The rest were all injured. The
buildings in the ueighborhood were more
or less shaken. and a hors. car which was
in the street. in front was fairly lifled from
the ground and left at distance OF 10 feet
from the rails. This building wa. large
four story brick one. the lower story aud
basement being occupied by Dow for a
drug store aud soda manufactory The
upper rooms were used as Offices aud
lodging rooms. Nothing * A. Yet known
a. 10 The cause at this. but 1t i tumorrd
that there was a large quantity OF nitro
glvccriuc In the basement and this seems
the most plausible. ~ no other thin. could
have caused such an instantaneous des-
truction of so large building. The loss
of property cannot be fairly estimated.
