The fault finding is simply a poor ex-

EXPLOSION AT CAREEY's POINT
THERE WE'RE SEVERAL OF THEN
AND FIRE FOLLOwED-NO PAR
TICULARS OBTAINABLE.

TICULARS OBTAINABLE.
An explosion, OF rather a series Of
explosions. took place at carney's
Point powder works about 1.25 o'clock
this afternoon.
At that time the little village Of
Pennsgrove was startled by terrific
explosion, and on looking toward Car
ney's Point, it was seen that DuPonts'
powder mills at that place was all
ablaze. The fire had the appearance
Of being a big one, and was inter-
spersed at intervals by terrific explo-
sions, at least ten distinct reports be-
ing heard.
The captain Of the Ulrica, on being
interviewed, confirmed the report that
the explosion had taken place, but did
not know the extent Of the damage, or
whether any one had been killed.
The DUPONT De Nemours Company
of this city, with offices in the EQuita-
BILE building, were called up at 2.SO
by telephone, but knew nothing Of the
explosion.
In addition to the regular employees
of the mills. there are six plumbers o.

MRS. BoEcK SUCCEEDS HERSELF
CHIEF JUSTICE LORE IGNORES
THE DEMANDS OF THE UNITED
LABOR LEAGUE.

CHIEF JUSTICE LORE IGNORES
THE DEMANDS OF THE UNITED
LABOR LEAGUE.
In spite of the opposition of the
United Labor League, which had its
own candidate, Chief Justice Lore has
decided to continue Mrs. Theresa
Boeck as factory inspector for this
city. She yesterday submitted to the
chief justice her second annual re-
port. She says that during the past
year she visited monthly seventy-fiye
different places where girls and wo-
men are employed, making in all nine
hundred visits in the county during
the year.
She had very little trouble and
whatever was contrary to the law was
remedied as soon as attention was call
ed to it. No offenders are named in
the report. She observes that while
she received several complaints, they
were found on investigation to exag-
gerate the condition of affairs, and if
any semblance of violation could be
found, the complainants refused to
give evidence.
The report says there are twenty
five hundred women and girls employ
ed in factories and stores in New Cas-
tie county, all of whom enjoy the ben
elits of the labor law in regard to ac-
commodations for eating. dressing. etc
Several suggestions also are made
Mrs. Boeek calls attention to the need
of child labor law. She suggests
that there be an enactment to prevent
children OF a tender age-that is
and 10 years-working in factories
thus neglecting their education. There
are but two places in the county
where children Of this age are en-
ployed, but their task is light.
Mrs. Boeck also calls attention to the
need of suitable fire escapes on many
factories. This does not come within
her jurisdiction. but she believes il
event of a fire there will be loss o
life if some of the facilities for egresi
from factories are not improved. Sh'
also thinks some action should b.
taken to prevent boys under the ag
of Is running elevators in establish
ments. as several accidents have re
lsulted from this.

PLUG PAINTING PROBLEM.
GRAVE QUESTION AGITATING
PUBLIC MIND REGARDING
COLOR OF FIRE HYDRANTS.


The most serious question that now
appears to agitate the public mind be-
side the deadlock in Council, is the
proper color that fire plugs should be
painted
At the last meeting of the Water
Commission, Mr.. Porter brought up
the matter for discussion. 1t was sug-
gested at that time that owing to
the present dark color of the fire plugs
hremen were unable to find them at
night in case of fire, and that they
should be painted some light color
similar to that upon the letter boxes.
Although no action was taken the
idea was considered a good one, and
Chief Engineer Sasse and Assistant
Engineer Joyce, of the Wilmington
Fire Department, are both said to be
in favor of the Water Department
painting the fire plugs an aluminium
color, like the letter boxes, as this
would enable them to be located more
readily at night.
But now a serious drawback has
arisen from the fact that if the plugs
are painted a white color that in win
ter in case Of a heavy snowfall the
firemen would never be able to find
them, at all at night
1t has been suggested that the easi-
est way out of the difficulty would be
to affix an incandescent lamp covered
with a wire globe to the top of the
plugs, by which light the firemen
would be able to locate them in the
darkness in all kinds of weather. Even
in case Of a heavy snowfall the heat
from the lamp would melt the snow
from about the top of the hydrant and
its identity could be easily estab-
lished.
