Koal-Spar is a new
preparation to save coal.
Directions for use: Dis
solve the Koal-Spar in
water and sprinkle it
over the coal. Koal-Spar
acts as a flue to aid the
combination of the oxy-
gen in the air with the
coal gas in the coal; this
combination produces
what we call heat, Soft
coal, more than any
other, lacks the certain
elements which are re-
quired to make a perfect
com mbustion. Koal-Spa7
supplies these elements.
The incomplete COM
bustion of coal causes
clinkers and cinders to
form in stoves, and also
the liberation Of coal gas
in large quantities.
The presence of coal
GAS In a house not only
soils everything, but it
is very conducive to
colds II the head, throat
and lung troubles. Don't
!orget that euro is the
best remedy.
Koal-Spar Will destroy
coal gas, smoke and
SCOT. A 25 cent package
will save a quarter Of a
ton Of coal. Buy il. Try
it, and be happy.
Send is 2-cent stamps
and get e package by
mail.

and thigh of a human being, driven by
the force of dynamite from the fearful
scene.
HEARTRENDING.
There were still heroes left to help pull
the shrieking wounded and groaning dy-
ing to a distance. But the people up
town hesitated. There had been two ex-
plosions and there might be more. There
were rumors of car loads of powder in
the vicinity besides that stored in tho
warehouses.
Five minutes later third explosion did
come, but it was a mild one, and it is be-
lieved that very few, if any, were injured
in this.
BUTTE's MOST AWFUL HOUR.
1t had all occurred in 10 minutes, the
most horrible quarter of an hour in Butte's
history.
The horrible aspect of the scene, after
the explosions, was beyond description.
! Words could give no idea of it. 1t pre-
sented more the appearance of a field of
battle than anything else.
The dead were strewn everywhere and
the cries and groans of the injured and
dying presented a scene altogether un-
earthly.
Blood and brains were spattered all
about. Here were legs and arms
scattered around, and there
we're pieces of flesh and entrails. 1t was
sickening.

Between the Northern Pacific and tho
Great Northern depots, a space of about
| 800 feet, the ground was literally covered
with parts of human bodies and with the
dead and injured. The scene was one OF
utter and absolute destruction. The
houses in the vicinity werc as thoroughly
wrecked as if a cyclone had passed
through thcm.
| STACKS or DEAD BODIES.
One of the rescuing corps gathered p
dead bodies in one pile. Eight were in
another. Two and three in other piles.
The rescuers pulled some of the bodies
out still quivering, remnants of human
beings still groauing, while legs and arms
had been torn off. Shapeless trunks
quivered and died in the arms of the liy.
