MISUNDERSTANDING
FOUR CHILDREN BURNED BY EX-
FLOODING GUNPOWDER.

Little Edwin, Henry, Emmie and Lille
Fenton Play With a Bag Of Loose
Powder and Come Near Being
Burned to Desth-One OF Them Ig-
nited the Powder and all -Four In
jured-
The four little children Of Mr.. George o.
Penton. manager of the Singer Manufactur-
ing COmpany's Office. were badly burned by
an explosion Of powder yestei day morning.
Mr.. Penton lives at No. 17411 Henry
street. He owns the adjoining house on the
east, as well as the one In which he lives.
The occupants of the house moved out few
days ago, and two ladies we're looking over
the house yesterday morning with view
Of renting it.
Mr.. Pentons four young children,
Edwin, Henry, Emmie and
ami Lille, aged respectively IL, 8, 6 aud
years, were playing in the house. They
were rummaging about as children do, pick
ing up odds and ends that had been left be-
hind by the former occupants and Selling
upon anything that struck their fancy.
Edwin, the eldest, came across paper
bag containing about four loads of gun
powder. He had also found an old cigar.
He proposed to set the powder off and see
the blaze. He poured the powder out on a
window sill and then lit the cigar.
The window sill was just about
the hight of the youngest child's
head. The children all gathered close TO il
to see the explosion. The result when the
boy touched the cigar to the powder can be
imagined. TIE blaze few up in the faces
Of the children. The ladies who were In the
building heard their screams and ran to
their assistance. The dresses of the little
girls had caught FIRE from the explosion,
which the ladies extinguished by throwing
their heavier dresses around them.
All OF the children were severely burned
about the face and neck. Mr. Penton was
telephoned ct his Office and Drs. Stone,
Purse and Bulloch were summoned.
The physicians dressed the burns and did
all they could TO relieve the sufferings of
the little ones. They were all burned, most
about the face, Lille, the youngest, suffer
ing the most.
Fortunately none of their eyes were
injured, though the eyebrows of every one
Of them were burned off Neither was any
powder blown into the skin as is often the
case in such accidents
The little sufferers bore their pain
bravely. Little Edwin, regretted very much
that he was not the only sufferer from the
accident, as he regarded it as all his own
fault.
A crowd was attracted to the scene by
the report OF the accident

found blazing pine knot wedged under

Electric Railway Company and the Savan-

ence to the Gwinuett street crossing where
by the Electric railway will cross at grade.
The Electric line assumes the cost of maxi
ing the crossing aud also assumes all liabil-

prevent the Electric line from crossing at
grade, 1Phe case was appealed and the
supreme court sustained the injunction.
The matter has since rested just there.
Negotiations were pending for awhile for
the bridging Of the tracks and also for tun>

conSummated.
AS soon as the present negotiation is COM
pleted the Electric lines tracks will be laid
across the Savannah. Florida and Western
yard and cars will run direct to the eastern
terminus of the road without the necessity
OF transfer, as at present.

A Rush of Applicants at the Ordi-
nary's Office.
The ordinary's Office has been crowded
for the last two days with people fling APP
plications for the return of direct taxes
advertised recently in the MORNING NEWS.
About 100 claims have been sent on
already. Most Of them are for small
amounts. from s. to $25, with few runs
ming up TO considerable sums. Az the large
majority OF the list of sums paid in Chat
ham county is in small amounts there will
be great many Of them for which no
claim will be made.
In many cases the original taxpayers
are dead and IL will be necessary for their
heirs to secure letters of administration TO
enable them to collect the amounts.
The cost OF the letters Of administration
and other papers in many cases would be
greater than the amounts of the tax re-
funded.
Judge Ferrill thinks 1t would be a good
idea to have the county administrator en-
powered to collect all the unclaimed
amounts for the benefit of the various char
liable institutions of the city.

The City and Suburban Defaults on It's
Bonds.
There was quite a connection on BRYAN
street yesterday when it was rumored that
the City and Suburban railway had failed
to meet the February interest on its bonded
debt.
The first mortgage bonds Of the company
amount 20 5000 900. and bear z per cent. in
teress, payable semi-annually. The compe-
tltion OF the electric railway lines has cut
down the business Of horse car lines, aud last
year there was falling off in the
receipts as compared with that of
the previous year. The stock
has mover paid dividend and the stock.
holders at the annual nesting took steps
toward equipping the railroad with an cleo
trio outfit. The plan was to sell a part of
the real estate owned by the company, and
with the proceeds put the lines in condition
to handle its business at a profit. The
trustees of the boudholders, however. re-
fused to consent to a change in the invest
ment, and the matter was dropped.
IL Is doubtful il the railroad will here
after meeu its fixed charges, unless it ia sup
piled with modern equipment and thereby
enabled to regain the patronage it has lost
by reason of the improved service afforded
the public by the electric lines. Nearly all
the bonds are held in Savannah, and have
been considered for several years as Rilt-
edged securities.
The City and Suburban railway has
plenty OF assets, but they are all covered by
the first and second mortgages, and are
therefore unavailable in this emergency.

Young David Porter, who shot and killed
his father early yesterday morning, wss
acquitted by the coroEer's jury. A verdict
Of accidental killing was rendered after q
few minutes elaboration. The jury was as
follows:
David p. Myerson, J. E. Campos,

Shortly before the inquest. Detectives
Morgan and Wetherhorn took young Porter
from the police barracks into the room where
the dead body Of his father lay. Every one
present expected TO see the boy break down.
Cody and deliberately he walked TO the
body and lifted the cloth which covered the
face Of his dead father. For probably a
minute, be looked at the features. Not a
muscle Of his face twitched, and he betrayed
not particle of emotion. If he had been
gazing at the features Of a stranger, with
whose death he had no connection, he could
not have appeared less unconcerned.
KISSED BIS FATHER.
Scanning closely the wounds be had
inflicted in his fathers throat and ear he
stopped and kissed the lips which he had
Eealed in death. This last act made the
jurymen and spectators shudder. The lack
Of feeling displayed by the boy was more
than any one expected.
