bureau, said one opinion was that the

He explained that meteors very often re-

and eventually come in contact with the
lower air currents as q snow storm was

Another solution which he thought

LISBON, Eeb 2o.-At a masked ball
given by the Artists club of San Tanen
fire broke out shortly after midnight and
spread with great rapidity. A terrible
panic followed the first alarm, and all
present rushed for the exits, which were
soon jammed with the terrified people.
Dcspairing Of escape by any other means
men, women and children jumped from
the windows, seriously injuring them
selves. Friends of the jewellers rushed
into the burning building later TO aid in
the work of rescue, and many of them
were caught by the flames before they
could make their way out again. Thus
far forty bodies have been recovered, of
whom all but one are those of wamen and
girls.

DETROIT, Feb. a0-A special to The
Tribune from Seney, Mich. says: A very
peculiar accident. resulting in the death Of
four men. occurred at McKay's lumber
camp near here. A party of Fins and
Poles was working on an incline of the
road shoyeling away the snow which was
piled high on either side. The steam log
handler, which was being experimental
with, suddenly became unmanagcable
and rushed down upon the men before
they could escape. They were ground be-
meath the wheels and some were thrown
up against the snowb banks, Seven men
were badly injured and four killed out
right.
Particulars are very hard to get, as the
storm which has been prevailing for twen-
ty-four hours prevents trains from run
ming. 1t was learned, however, that the
wounded men have been conveyed to
nearby camps John Steinland and his
SON are among the injured. The engine
which accomplished the terrible work had
been idle for several days. Even the en-.
gineer cannot explain the accident.
