AR Early Celebration.

There was a premature Fourth Of July
celebration in East Washington yestef-
day. which. it is said. resulted from the
careless handling Of box of fireworks.
The celebration took place in front of the
residence of Mr.. B. F. Guy, 30S 9Th street
southeast Mr.. Guy il a dealer in explo-
sves Of this character and had this box of
the fireworks stored at his house On &C
count Of the approach of Independence day
and the consequent demand for such goods
Mr.. Guy had given orders for their removal
from his house to his store on 9th street.
The driver removed the box from the house
In safety, but when the front pavement
was reached he rolled the box in a manner
which shook the torpedoes about the box
and caused one of them to explode That
was all that was necessary. The torch had
been applied and a few seconds later there
was a disturbance in the large wooden box.
Sc great was the force of the explosion Of
the various kinds of fireworks that the
SIDES OF the box gave way. The force, how
ever. was not great enough to do any fur
tner damage, but the $50 worth of explosives
In the box were entirely destroyed, enter
tanning crowd of school children who
were on their way to school at the time.

Dangerous Use of Strong
PurgatiVeS,

P1Is and purgatiyes which act quickly upon the
bowels irritate and destroy the mucous Innings OF
the stomach and bowels. A continued use OF such
remedies infames the stomach and bowels. The
use OF the genuine imported Carlsbad Sprudel Salt
is highly recommended, because its action is due
solely to its solvent and stimulating properties,

obtained when outdoor exercise can be had. Oh
