the latter being made to fit in the gum
tight. By placing the sack over the head
with strap resting on opposite shoulder
from side the sack is to be worn, the
fertilizer naturally settles to center Of
sack ready to run out of the gum tube.
BY placing the hand at B the tube can
be guided and the flow of fertilizer regu-
lated by pressure on the gum hose, and
the mixture can be shaken up by the
lower part of arm, to prevent elogging.
The fertilizer can be scattered over any
width of row by zigzag motion Of hand.
This arrangement will allow any speed
that the operator may want to use. A
hole of, say ~ inches, will allow q
large amount of fertilizer to pass out,
which may be lessoned by the speed Of

The room n which the explosion occurred
Is in the main building. In front, on TIE

fifty or sixty feet and Immediately back Of,

but which is dependent upon the engine
engineer and a night Waterman and
one or two helpers and stable
as engineer last night. He is con-
sidered a thoroughly competent and reliable
man and no blame is attached to MIN Ior
the explosion. He is responsible fol-, the
engine room at night and also has charge
of the ice machinery and cold storage
throughout He therefore has to divide his
time among several places and it thus oc-
ours that he is not in the engine room all
the time. He had not been out very long,
however, when he returned and discovered
the leak.
The company within the last year has
doubled the capacity of the ice manufac-
turing plant and at the time the new plant
was put III all the machinery connected
with 1t was oNerhauied. Ii Is also the GUS
tom to have all the ammonia pipes examined
frequently, as they are known to be eX-
tremely dangerous. 1t is still somewhat of
a mystery how the big leak could have
been sprung so suddenly.
Capt. John Hunt of the fire department,
and Eitel. the ''washout'' man at the brew
cry, entered the room above the engine
room after the fire had been extinguished
and turned off the ammonia. They sue
ceeded in saving very little, however, as
the fluid had nearly all rushed out of the
coils before they attempted to shut it off.
The first still alarm was sent in about
$40 o'clock and the chemical wagon from
No. 2 and a hose wagon from No. II
answered the call. Capt. John Hunt, of No.
z was in charge, and as soon as he ar
rived he sent in a general alarm. The main
portion of the department was busy at
fire near the corner of Washington and
Meridian streets at the time, but soon
it was extinguished the wagons hurried
down to the brewery.

CHANGE In THE TICKET
LEWIS G. AKIN RESIGNS AS NOMI-
NEE FOR COUNTY ASSESSOR.
Qualifications Under the Statute
Slightly in Donbt-He lis Succeeded
by Joseph E. Boswell.

Lewis G.. Akin nominee for County AS
SCISSOR on the Republican ticket, made a
discovery recently which threw a slight
doubt on his qualifications for the office
as required by the statute, and, although
attorneys thought this feature of the stat
ute which would jeopardize his right to
hold the office unconstitutional. Mr. Akin
decided to remove all possibility of doubt
by resigning the nomination. He sent his
resignation to County Chairman Young
and yesterday evening the county executive
committee met and selected Joseph z. Bos-
well to fill the place made vacant by Mr.
Atkins resignation. Mr. Atkins letter to
Chairman Young fully explains the cause
of his resignation. 1t is follows:
ION April % last the party honored me
with the nomination for County Assessor
of Marion county and having concluded to
withdraw from the ticket. desire to ma Ike
plain my reasons therefor The law Great
ing the Office of County Assessor provides
Such County Assessor shall be a resident
not less than four years before the date
of such election. Although have resided
in this county thfrtytwo years and have
been a resident householder in the county
twenty-four years and have been a free
holder for seventeen years, | find that for
the period of six days within the last four
years l owned no real estate, and for that
time was not a freebooter. This occurred
in April, 1894. On the 18th of that month
/ sold my home in order to buy another
and did not complete the purchase of the
other until six days later
Il am advised by attorneys that the
courts would probably hold the property
qualifications attached to the office to be
unconstitutional, and that l am eligible
but that the point is of some doubt. so
that. although 1 should be elected by
large majority, which now seems certain
there would be a possibility of the Demo
cratic nominee holding the Office. l have
concluded that it is my duty to my party
to remove this possibility. and so L reluc-
family resign the nomination in order that
some one about whose eligibility no technf-
cal question can be raised may be placed
on the ticket in my stead.
Mr.. Boswell, who succeeds Mr.. Akin on
the ticket. is an old soldier, widely known
and popular in the county. He was a close
contestant of the shrieyalty nomination
with Thomas P. Shufelton and was only de-
feated by few votes.

Mr.. Dunbar has been in New York dur
ing the last few weeks arranging with
Major Pond to give a series of readings
from his own work He has already been
very successful with these readings and
his reception on the few occasions on which
he has given readings in New York has
been most encouraging and gratifying. We
heard very gcod story the other day
about Mr. Dunbar which is well authen-
ticated. He was asked by the editor of a
prominent New York magazine TO recite
some of his verses. and. after the Office
staff had been called in, Mr.. Dunbar asked
permission first Of all TO take a sweet re-
Venge by reading poem which he had sent
to the-selfsame editor year previous, and
which he had rejected. The poem in ques-
ton is the one printed in his little volume
as when Maiindy Sings. We may add
ciate the beauty of Mr.. Dunbar's poem
at that time ne has since made amends
