MANGLED AND SLAIN.

Two Killed and Eight Badly Injured
at Crosse Point. cys,
With an explosion that shook the coun-
try for miles around one OF the buildings
of the Chicago Fireworks Company at
Crosse Point blew up about 8 o'clock
Wednesday morning, killing two persons,
fatally wounding two and terribly injur-
ing six others. The. employees. most OF
whom were girls under age, had scarcely
been at work an hour when the accident
occurred. y What caused the explosion
Is not and probably never will be known.
The girls were working briskly and mer-
rily chatting with one another, when sud-
denly terrible roar was heard, and the
walls Of the building, which is one of
twelve similar ones, fell outward, while
the roof came careening down, crushing
the poor victims to the floor. A minute
later another explosion followed, which
mercifully raised the roof from the dying
and fainting, and with feeble limbs and
agonizing cries the wounded crawled out,
some of them, forgetful OF their own
awful plight, dragging the more helpless
ones with them. The work for the season
at the establishment began but few
weeks ago, and only two of the twelve
buildings were in use.

SHORT LINE OF MARCH.

Grand Army Men Pleased at the De-
cision of the ommittees.
Advices received at the headquarters of
the Grand Army Of the Republic indicate
that there is general satisfaction among
the comrades throughout the country at
the decision of the joint local and execu-
tive committees to limit the length Of the
route Of the parade to take place in con-
nection with the national encampmentsat
st. Paul next September to one and eight
tenths miles. At previous encampments,
notably those at, Boston and Pittsburg,
there was considerable complaint among
the veterans over the amount Of ground
they were required to cover on parade
day, and thousands Of them were COM
PEELED to drop out Of line before the dis
persing point was reached. This year,
however, even the most feeble will be
able to go over the course from start to
finish. Moreover, the reviewing stand
will be located about three-quarters Of
mile from the starting point, so that In
the event Of extreme heat, rain or unfav-
orable conditions the parade can disband
without going over the entire distance.
The route adopted is paved with asphalt
from one end to the other, and this will
enable the veterans to march with mill
tary tread. Az
