A New Explosive,

A new explosive was tested in the Drifton
mines Tuesday by a party Of distinguished
experts. The powder used, and which may
eventually be introduced in the anthracite
coal fields, can be handled without danger,
because if it does explode only a peculiar
odor arises. 1t has been recommended to
operate because of its absolute safety.

The operators of the Patterson c%olliery at
Natalie, again failed to pay their men on
Monday. Saturday was the regular pay day,
but it was announced that the cash would not
be given out until Monday. But the ex-

result the employees are again on strike.

Kearz Had Been on a Protracted
Debauch and Threatened His
Wife's Life.
THE LATTER FLEEs FOR SAFETY
In Pursuit the Husban Breaks Into
the Morris Residence and Is
Shot Dead.

SANTA MONICA, CAL, Sept. 1o.-Wil-
liam J. Kearz was shot and instantly
killed by his father-in-law, Captain j. NJ.
Morris, at $3.50 o'clock tonight at the
residence of Captain Morris, on Fourth
street. Kearz had been on a debauch ever
since Sunday, and had repeatedly threat
ened his wife's and father-in-law's life,
his wife being compelled to fee from home
to her fathers house for protection several
times recently.
Last Monday night Kearz followed her
and threatened her life with a carving
knife. Morris attempted to dissuade
Kearz from violence.
Kearz, however, persisted in annoying
his wife and her family, and the affair
eliminated tonight in Kearz approaching
the family residence on Fourth street at
the rear door and forcing an entrance
He was met by Captain Morris, who shot
him twice in the right breast with a
double-barreled shotgun. Kearz dropped
to the floor of the rear porch and expired
after few gasps.
The remains were conveyed to Guidi-
ner's undertaking parlors and the Coroner
is expected on late electrician.
Captain Morris, being interviewed by a
CALL reporter, expressed sorrow at the
step he had been obliged to take, but said
that his daughters life was more precious
to him than anything else.
