A GASOLINE EXPLOSION.

An Engine Driver I'm a PrecariOus
10 Position.
Anlexplosion Of gasoline at the works
of the Standard Oil Company near the
Downey avenue bridge yesterday was
said TO have threatened serious conf1a-
grafton yesterday morning about half
past nine O'Clock. There was about 5000
worth of gasoline stored in small ware
house which was consumed, but the
prompt arrival of the Fire Department
and the excellent manner in which the
men worked prevented the spread of the
fire to the main building where many
gallons of oil were in store. In his
drive to the fire Driver Mcmahon, of
Engine No. l, had a narrow escape from
perhaps serious injury. In crossing the
river one of the wheels of the engine ran
into hole, and although Mcmahon was
strapped to his seat the jar was of suf-
ficient force to throw him forward and
break the strap. He fell on to the tongue
of the engine, between the horses, who
kept up their rapid gait, and he only
succeeded in saving himself by his great
presence of mind. He managed to re-
gain his seat, and drove on without the
loss Of a minutes time.

A Suspicious Blaze.

About half past eight O'Clock last
night the fire department was called out
for fire on Regent street, near Fifth, by
Chief Moriarty, who had been summoned
to the same. The department was
quickly ON the scene and put out the
flames before they gained any headway.
From appearances Chief Moriarty was
inclined to think that the fire was incen-
diary, from the fact.that it had started in
three rooms. 1t was claimed that the
lamp had exploded and set fire to one of
the rooms, and that the lamp had been
hurriedly thrown to another room setting
it a-fre also, and that the lamp had set
fire to the third room half an hour be-
fore. The matter will be investigated.
The house was double, one side being
occupied by Erhardt Gipp, and the other
by Mr.. w. Albert or Albert Krevacher.
The fire occurred in the portion occupied
by the latter, who was to move to-day.
The furniture was insured for 5000, but
its value was not nearly so much.

of $l0,381, ,5s3, and will also receive

est during the same period amounting to

Edward Armstrong; Method of
&eneWlng His Wardrobe.

Edward Armstrong; Method of
&enewlng HIS wardrobe.
Monday evening it occurred to Edward
Armstrong, a man who claims to be a
railroad hand, but who bears doubtful
character with the police, that the suit
of clothes which he wore was not up to
the standard in style and finish. He
proceeded, it is said, to adopt singular
method of improving his wardrobe.
Happening upon an. acquaintance who
had been enjoying the society of the
growler and was, therefore, not in full
control of his faculties, he proposed that
they should bunk together for the night
in certain San Fernando street lodging
house. The friend objected. saying that
he had no money and had contemplated
spending that night with the tarantulas
on the curbstone. Edward replied that
he was willing to stand treat on the
lodgings and they could even it up some
other time. Then he and the friend fell
up stairs together and disrobed for bed.
The inebriate lost no time in getting un-
der the blankets, but Armstrong sudden
ly remembered another engagement.
In his haste he managed to get into the
sleeping mans clothes, which by sim
gular coincidence were much better than
his own. As he went down stairs his
changed appearance struck the landlord
with profound amazement. AS he did
not propose to allow any such cdr.
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde" scheme to be
played on him he started right up stairs
and woke up the drunken man. There
was nothing for that gentleman to do, if he
proposed to appear in public, but to put
on the cast-of garments of Mr.. Arm
strong. The two then went out and
hunted up Officer Purvis, whose beat is
in that part of town. Over in saloon
called the White Elephant, they dis
covered Mr.. Ed. Armstrong doing the
BERRY Wall" and trying to borrow
money on his shape. The clothes were
readily identified by their former owner
and Armstrong was commanded to strip.
The exchange was promptly made and
he was marched of to the station. Yes
.erday afternoon he appeared before
Justice King and got one hundred days
IL which to think up some new plan for
regaining his place among the dudes,

Geological SURVEYS.
WASHINGTON, July 31.-In yesterdays
debate on Bowen's proposition to appro-
pirate $3.50 600 for investigating the ex-
tent to which the arid regions of the
United States can be redeemed by irriga-
ton, Senator Plumb said:
There is no doubt about the fruitful
ness of that soil. There is no doubt about
it, that supplied with water it will yield
bountifully. I know the fertile brain Of
these gentlemen, and suppose the Chief
of the Geological Survey wants another
lob. There will be employment for Con-
gre ssmen's sons and relatives and
friends. The Geological Survey is the
living hospital OF the Government. 1t
never has refused employment to
single relative of Congressman, or
to anyone who is supposed to be
influential in regard to obtaining
appropriations, and the appropriations
they ask for are never refused, and with
one exception it is the only approprla-
ton made in the precise terms requested,
and never diminished in either House Of
Congress. venture to say. for what II
may be worth, that the money that has
been expended by the Geological Survey
as rule has been the worst expenditure
since the Government was made. We
have heard, of course, a great deal about
ethnology; about disappeared and dis
appearing races on the American con
tinent, large portion Of which, in my
belief, have been pure invention, just o.

Senator Stewart defended the Director
of the Geological Bureau, and said he
was competent, energetic and enthusi-
astic. The scheme did not originate in
the brain of Major Powell, it originated
with the Senators from Colorado and

the only way out of the difficulty is to
elect Republican President.
In an interview this evening General
Alger said, among other things, that the
