EXPLOSION ON A CAR.
Heating Apparatus of a Pullman
Gave Wav

ST. Louis, March S.-A loud report
borhood of Fourteenth and Gratiot
streets this morning.
Everybody who heard it thought a
vat in the works of the Waters-Pierce
Oil company had exploded and a panic
was precipitated among the residents
about the refinery. Fire alarms were
turned in and responses were made by
three engine companies and five fire
wagons.
An investigation by firemen, however,
located the trouble in the Pullman car
Monmouth which was standing on a
sidetrack beneath the Fourteenth street
bridge. Flames were bursting from all
its windows, but they were soon ex-
tinguished by one of the engines.
The blame for the explosion was laid
upon a defective heating apparatus.
The car was brought into ST. Louis
Monday morning and transferred to it's
switch. 1t was filed with passengers
But all left their berths early. The last
person to leave the car was the porter
who locked it up just a few minutes
before the accident.
The explosion blew part of the roof
from the car and ruined its splendid in
terror. The rear of the car, in which
the heating apparatus was located, suf-
fered most. 1t was completely demol-
ished. The sides were pressed from the
floor and the Pintsch light tube was
shattered. Not a window was left in
the car
The damage from the explosion is esti-
mated at 81, 0OO

FLOWER GIRLS MUST GO.
Police Have Been Ordered to Arrest
the Youthful Beggars.

St Louis, March S-Through the eff
forts of the Woman's Humane society
an order has been issued to the police
department to prevent the selling of
flowers on the streets by young girls.
James Bell, the agent of the organiza-
ton, found, upon investigation, that the
girls were sent into the streets by diSSo-
lutte women, who lived on the earnings
of these children and frequently beat
them when their receipts were not so
large as they expected. He also dis
covered that the flower girls visited re-
sorts of iIl-repute and many of them
were nearly as bad as the inmtaes of
these places. The matter was laid be-

 New Yorll's society folk do not don saclzeloth and ashes wien they go to church. One of the fashionable would never think of attending church unless properly gowned for the occasion.

the street dress was considered quite proper church services, but that time is past, and now the church costume is necessity.
 It would not be in keeping with my lady's devotion 10 attend the Sabbath services elaborately gowned, and for this reason the church gowns of the fall are quite plain but decidedly elegant in texture. In fact, the lack of elabo- rate trimming is more than atoned for in the quality of the material used. But, while plain. the Sabbath morning pa rade on Fifth avenue will be none the less interesting or less picturesque. One will see a wonderful variety of color in these parades, as we'll as an endless va- riety of styles, although of course along somewhat the same lines.
