works magazine of Victor Cortinas
to explode, although they We're 10.
Gated at Eagle Grove, four miles
west of the city. The shock of the
explosion caused houses to rock and
sway in the city as if in tho throes
of an earthquake. Glass was broken,
doors flung open, plaster fell from
the wall, goods tumbled from the
shelves and people stood aghast at
what they knew not. A telephone
message told the cause of the per.
turbation and dispelled the fear that
had seized upon the people.
