lightning A terrific explosion follow
ed. The building was shattered and
the force Of the explosion was so great
that 1t shook the foundation of nearly
every dwelling in Wilkesbarre. The
people thought a great earthquake had
occurred. There were about 20 tons of
powder stored in the building. There
was no one in the place at the time.
but John Higgins, who was driving by
just as the explosion occurred, was in
stantly killed by flying debris.
Where the magazine formerly stood
there is a hole 13 feet deep caused by
the explosion. All the buildings in the
immediate vicinity were badly wrecked.
The shifting shanty. where the men
change their clothes, was entirely de-
molished. The boiler shop near by was
levelled to the ground. on Empire
street, about 500 yards from the scene
Of the explosion, stands 20 tenement
houses. The foundations of all of

and residence of James McGroarty was

PROF. REESES POWER.
The Brother Of Our Townsman Disclosei
the Future.


Prof Bert Reese, of Chicago, the noted
clairvOyant and mind reader, is in town for
q few days the guest Of his brother, Max
Reese. He will remain here until Monday
evening. During his stay here Prof. Reese
will give exhibitions of his wonderful powers
in the occult art, at the residence Of his
brother, 30l East Centre street. The pro-
fessor was here four years ago and he is no
stranger to many Of our people. Last even
ing he entertained quite number Of people
by his extraordinary powers Of mind read
ing.
The professor paid visit to the HERALD
sanctum this morning, and after very
pleasant conversation requested the editor to
write on separate slips of paper his mothers
maiden name, the first paper he had written
for and to write four questions. These slips
were prepared while the mind reader was in
an adjoining room. Before telling their
contents the slips of papor were folded several
times and then pressed against his forehead
The contents were then announced telling
the newspaper man his mothers maiden
name, what paper he first worked on, that he
was the first of three children, the age at
which he went to work for himself, and
many other events in his life.
This, it should be remembered was with
out asking single question or having the
subject write a word, and the party was an
entire stranger, never having met him until
ten minutes before the test. All the infor-
nation was correct. He not only tells the
past, but the future, and can certainly be
ranked as a prodigy. The professor does not
explain his faculty, but calls it gift and let's
it go at mind reading His great powers
have been used occasionally as a means of
securing the conviction of criminals He
has never failed in any test, and what he
does is almost as unexplainable as it is as
tonishing.
There is no doubt about the mental powers
of Prof. Reese, at least there exists none in
the minds of many of our prominent people
who were his subjects last night and to-day.
1t will pay any one to 90 and give him an
interview before he leaves town. They will
never regret it, and will witness marvellous
display of mind reading.

EARLY MORNING ALARM.
The Fire Department Summoned, But
Their Services Not Needed.

Their Services Not Needed
Shortly before one O'Clock this morning the
residents of town were aroused by an alarm
of fire being sounded from box "a, at the
corner of Main and Poplar streets.
The alarm was sent in by officer Goodman
who was notified by messenger on bicycle
that fire was raging among the slaughter
houses near the Cambridge colliery. 1t
proved to be the smoke house owned by
Charles New, the butcher The structure
was Of frame, which burned to the ground
The building contained no stock and the
damage is but few dollars. 1t had been
used yesterday for seasoning meats
The fire department, with the exception of
the Columbia company, responded promptly
The latter were unable to get out because
some excited person opened the doors of the
engine house before the horses were hitched
when one of them struck off and led his
pursuers a merry chase around town and was
not captured until about o'clock, when
Driver Taylor, William Everhard and several
others caught him on the road to Ellangowan
colliery. Everhard was slightly injured by
being thrown to the ground when he en-
deayored to hold the excited animal which
was particularly frislSy owing to him not
having been worked for several days. The
Phoenix Hose company attached a line of
hose to the plug at the Pennsylvania station,
but owing to the distance had not sufficient
length of hose to be of service
