At Cleveland, O., on the 1lth, boil

exploded with terrific force. One
piece of it went west, and, crash

foundation of house a dozen yards
distant. Graham, who works at night,
was sleeping, and his wife, who is i'll,

house. Graham was only slightly hurt.
Just before the fragment struck Gra-
hams house it wrecked his coal house.
In 1t were Mrs. John Sceiaga and Mrs.

wounds. The other fragment of the
boiler went west 900 feet and demol-

WILL OPEN THE DANCE.
Mrs. Morton to Lead the Opening Oua'
riIle at the Cente M al Ban.

A New York dispatch OF the llth
says: Mrs. Levi P. Morton, who came
over from Washington Saturday, told
her friends on her arrival that both So
cial and official life at the national cap
ital abounded with gossip and specula-
ton concerning the leadership of the
opening quadrille of the Washington
centennial ball. The controversy over
the selection of the ladies who should
dance was followed, Mrs. Morton said,
with eager curiosity. Now that the de-
cision had been reached, Washington
was very anxious for personal details
concerning thoee who were chosen.
The most important piece OF news,
however, which the vlce-pres-
ident's wife has gwen to her
New York friends is that Mrs.
Harrison has signifed her intention OF
accep pting the invitation 10 dance in the
quadrille, and will therefore certainly
lead the dance, with Mr.. Morton as a
partner. Mr.. Harrison would dance,
also, but he says he doesn't know how.
Mrs. Morton will become the partner
of Gov. Hill, who, as chief magistrate
of the Empire state, ranks neXtto Presl-
dent Harrison and Nice-President
