Her face was badly cut, many of
her teeth were knocked out and her
arms were bruised.
Thomas Bury, who was working on
the second floor, was covered with hot
pipe and heavy timbers Frank Pot
ter, who was on the floor, saw Bury
and, at the risk of injury to himself,
dragged pipes and timbers aside and
rescued the injured man. who was un-
conscious and unable to help himself
William Russell worked on the first
floor. He says that he heard loud
roar, everything shook and then fell.
He was buried beneath boards and
pipes, but luckily they crossed above
him and left an opening through which
! he crawled to the street He escaped
without a scratch.
The loss is estimated at $4,000 on
building, $4,000 on machinery, and
| $4,000 on stock. So far as can be learn
| ed, the only insurance was $4,000 on
building, $1,000 on machinery and $500
on stock. 1t is said the boiler was not
insured.
State Inspector Hawley, D. ]. Hayes,
Boiler Inspector ]. D. Dumond and an
expert boiler inspector employed by a
Hartford company, were in this city
this afternoon investigating the cause
of to-day's explosion. 1t has been def
nitely determined that the engineer told
the truth when he said there was plenty
of water in the boiler.
The boiler experts found the safety
fusible plug in excellent condition. The
boiler was sixteen feet long, four feet
in diameter, had forty-nine 3-inch tubes,
fifteen feet long and was made of one
quarter inch steel plates. About year
it was under the care of the Hartford
Boiler Inspection company and at that
time was rated to be in first class con-
dttion. The experts said this afternoon
it was in very good condition so far
as scaling of the boiler is concerned.
There were suspicious patches on the
middle plate, however, more particu-
larly where it broke away from dou-
BILE row of rivets.
The police report Of the explosion
given out tonight shows that there
were seventeen people in the building
of this number four were burned to
death, seven We're more or less injured,
while the others escaped with little
more than a severe shock.
The safety valve has been found, but
there is nothing about 1t to excite sus-
picion that the boiler connections were
not all right. Some thousands of people
went to the scene tonight many COM
ing from New Bedford.

FAST TIME MADE IN THE FACE AT
DENTBR'S OVERLAND PARK.

In Addition to That Robert j. With n Run
ming Mate Paced "a Mile in Fast Timo
Making the Last Quarter in Thirty and
One-half Seconds.
Denver, June 14.-Beautfful weather
and fine program brought an immense
crowd out to Overland park this after
noon. The track was in fine condition.
The principal event was the free-for- -all
pace, which was won by Hal Pointer.
At 1920 o'clock Hal Pointer, w. w. P.
and Flying Jfb appeared on the course
for the first heat in the free-for-all pace
They got off ON the first score with Hal
Pointer and w. w. p. nose and nose.
At the quarter Pointer and w. w. p.
were neck and neck, and Jfb only half a
length behind. At the half w. w. p.
left his feet and Pointer led Jfb by half
length only. In the stretch Pointer
led JIb by two lengths, winning easily
in 2:141s. w. w. p. was ten lengths be-
hind. Time by quarters: 321a. 1:O31as
1913, 2:141a.
The second heat was decidedly better
than the first. After scoring twice the
word "go" was given with the horses
in the same position they held at the
first heat. At the quarter w. w. P.
broke and from that was practically out
Of It. JiTb maintained his same position.
At the half Jib gained a length, but at
the three-quarters had lost it. Down
the stretch Pointer widened the distance
to fully six lengths and crossed the tape
winner by ten lengths in 2:1O5a, es-
tablishing a new track record. Tilne
by quarters: S21s, 1:O41s, 1:99, 2:1OlA.
Robert j. came ON the track at five
O'Clock with a running mate to go
against time, and made it in 2:06, the
fastest mile ever paced at this time.

TAe closing entertainment for the
season given last evening by America
lodge, knights of Pythias. proved the
most successful of the series. The lodge
is one of the largest in the state, and
most of the vocal and instrumental
talent ON the program was selected
from among its own members. These
selections were of a high order, and
fully sustained the reputation of this
lodge for keeping its entertainments up
to a fashionable standard.
The leading feature of the evening
was the paper on balooning by Captain
D. s. Thomas. 1t has been read in pri-
vate number Of times, but it is only
recently it has been given before the
public, and its marked success in the
surrounding towns warrants Mr..
Thomas in giving the subject much at
tention the coming winter.
In his opening remarks last evening
Mr.. Thomas explained that he was
not and never had been a professional
aeronaut-except in the newspapers,
His experience was simply that of an
amateur, whose love for the excitement
had prompted him to take sail in
the air whenever opportunity offered.
Furthermore his reading hardly reached
the dignity of a lecture, as 1t was Of
ten termed.
1t might, he said, more properly be
called diary or memoranda of events
occurring from time to time, and which
he had jotted down mainly for his own
satisfaction. During the one hour and
ten minutes occupied no allusion was
made to anything Of a sensational ma
ture, and if there were any present
expecting to listen to hair-breadth es-
capes or blood -curdling adventures they
were disappointed
Mr.. Thomas kept strictly to the line
laid out and in a plain, simple narra-
tive Of the more striking events in his
experience held the audience to the clos
est attention.

New York, June 14,-There is every
indication that a challenge from the
oxford and Cambridge teams to the
Yale and Harvard athletes is already on
its way to this country.
Charles Fl. Sheriff., jr., of New York,
member of Yale's graduate advisory
committee, said tonight:
IT have heard from best authority
that a challenge for Yale and Harvard
has been sent me by mail by Oxford
and Cambridge universities. This came
directly from London and I confidently
expect to receive the challenge in a
day or two. If such a thing occurs,
both of the American colleges would
undoubtedly accept and the contest oc-
cur in September
