Gas Explosion.

One of the most fatal gas explosions
we have heard of, of late years, ocur-
red last Saturday at Broad
Ripple, a lite town near, In
dianapolis. 1t seems the gas had
escaped from the pipe and Accumulate
ed in cellar and became ignited by a
match being struck. An awful explo-
sion occurred, wrecking number of
buildings and killing six people out
right and injuring thirty more. The
cause was supposed to be defective
plumbing. Those using gas cannot
be too careful of their plumbing.

Halls show has come and gone, S
have also the fakirs that follow it
and there were plenty of them, the
sleekest among whom was a fellow
working the electric belt scheme. 1t
is odd indeed, to see people who ought
to known better, dig up their hard
earned cash for these fellows. The
redeeining feature abont the electric
belt swindler is, he seldom gets any
one man for more than one dollar,
and this is not expensive schooling. A
few of the fellows who bite on electric
belts will bite again on some other
scheme, but not many, and if fellow
can get educated for dollar he ought
not kick himself very hard. The fell
low who deals with street faki-s gets
left and of course no one pities him.
