Did Considerable Damage at HARVARD
Brick works in Belisire-Dyna-
mite Reported to Have Been the
Cause.
At 1920 a. NJ. yesterday a disas-
trous explosion occurred ait the Bar
nard brick works in Bellaire, now con-
trolled by the Suburban Brick Com
pany. The explosion occurred in the
engine house and completely demol-
ished the building and brought down
the smoke stacks. There were four
boilers in the battery. One of them
was badly damaged, and the others
were more or less injured.
II was a most fortunate accident, as
no one was seriously injured, although
there were several workmen near. A
driver Dor Davis & Ice had his team in
front of the building. and he was
blown out Of the wagon. One OF the
horses was Knocked aown and scalded
by escaping steam, and was afterwards
shot.
1t is reported, but not confirmed, that
several sticks of dynamite he'd been
placed on top of one Of the boilers TO
thaw It Sut and had been forgotten
and exploded. Another cause given
was that one OF the boilers exploded.

IN THE AR.
The Germs Of La Grippe Are Convey
ed Through the Atmosphere.

rhe Germs of La Grippe Are Convey
ed Through the Atmosphere.
No one can escape the La Grippe
germ, because when an epidemic
of the disease is prevailing the air
is laden with it.
The reason everyone does not
have the disease at the same time
is because the persons who are en-
joying perfect health are able to
successfully resist and throw on
the infection. while those. who for
any reason are not in the. best of
health fall ready victims.
The first symptoms are those of
acute catarrh, resembling hard
cold, and if prompt treatment is
applied at this time, it can easily
be broken up; one of the best rem
edies at this stage is Stuart Ca
tarrh Tablets, sold by druggists
everywhere. and if taken freely,
say one tablet every hour or two
for two or three days. the danger
of pneumonia and serious compli-
cations will be averted.
The Rev. L. E. Palmer, Baptist
clergyman, of Ceresco, Mich,
makes statement of interest to
all catarrh and grip sufferers. He
says: "Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
have certainly been a blessing to
me. i have used them freely
this fall and winter, and have
found them a safeguard against
La Grippe and catarrhal troubles
from which l had suffered
for years. feel that / can freely
and conscientiously recommend
them"
Persons who suffer from catarrh
of the head and throat are very
susceptible to La Grippe and such
will find pleasant, convenient and
safe remedy in this new catarrh
cure.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are COM
posed entirely of harmless antisep-
ties, and may be used as freely as
necessary as they contain no CO.
caine, opiate or poisonous drug OF
any kind.

whereas the situation u radically diff
ferent. in so far as Mr.. Bailey is con-
cerned at least.
The insurgent Republicans started
their fight before the election, and
were understood by the voters in their
respective wards to be committed to
cleaning out the Offices, and causing
new blood to circulate through the
City Building. After the election they
did not take new position, but an
nounced the terms upon which they
would enter the Republican caucus.
They have never met in caucus with
the Republicans, are under no moral
obligation to vote with them, and will
not vote with them. Mr.. Bailey, on
the other hand. is bound, not by a
mere caucus obligation, but by SOL
emn oath administered by notary
public, and an oath as binding as any
oath taken in court or anywhere else.
If the insinuations and open charges
against members of Council proceed
much farther, it may become necessary
for every Councilman to make per-
sonal statement. 1t is a truly deplor-
able situation, and the end is not yet.
With reference to Mr.. Schmulbach's
attitude in the matter, Mr.. M. A. Chew
said to a Register reporter:
I'VE are carrying out the wishes of
the people, who indicated at the polls
that they want change in the offices.
They don't want Schmulbach, and they
have said so. The issue was clearly
defined in the Eighth, strongly Re-
publican ward. The Republican can
didate represented the Schmulbach in
terests, and was defeated by an over
whelming majority"

TOOK HIM FOR A LUNATIc.
Lord RusselPs Experience With "A
Country Landlord.


On one occasion Lord Chief Justice
Russell was at Shrewsbury on circuit
duty. The assizes concluded on Satur-
day, and the lord chief justice, who had
brought q horse with him, decided upon
riding to Church Stretton, noted in those
parts for its big private lunatic asylum,
and then proceeding to Hereford, the
next assizes town. He stopped, however,
at hamlet outside Stretton, and, dis
mounting at the door of the only inn. told
the landlord to attend to his horse. The
landlords method of performing his task
did not please his lordship, who spoke
his mind freely to him. Having entered
the house, Lord Russell brusquely, as
was his wont, asked the host what he
could have to eat.
"Some bread and cheese" was the re-
ply.
Il see some ham on the sideboard. Let
me have some and some Bread" said his
lordship.
"Indced, I won't" replied the landlord.
at Is for supper, and you hinna goin to
ave it"
"Do you know who amp" Numbered
the judge. Il am the lord chief justice of
England"
In the course Of this conversation the
landlord kept cautiously by the door. I'M
mediateiy on Lord Russell announcing
himself as lord chief Justice he bolted out
of the room, locked the door and rushed
brcathlcsa into the police station at
Church %tIcttnn. TELLING the police that a
patient had escaped fr.m the asylum and
was in Il ,:,l'.::.T"IiS condition at his
house. The police went To the inn. The
superintendent cautiously opened the
door and was Mortified TO find that the
supposed lunatic was really Lord Russell.
Profuse and profound apologies followed,
but the lord chief iustic" rod" away in

In her rig she could not be recognized.
Even If she were, what would her own
ers dare do about It? To have set up O
claim would have been to convict them
selves Of smuggling. AS for wiping
/ out a score Of Europeans. he would
consider that as sort of duty under
| any circumstances.
Before we made harbor everything
| was prepared and every man instruct
| ed. In response to our signal n dozen
sampans appeared, and the first man
| on our decks was the rascally old
| Chee-Wing Su. He was ELUSIVE, good
| natured and slick rs grease. He said
| there was cause for haste in unloading,
| as the custom officials had suddenly
become active, and he was permitted
to order about so men on board to
break out cargo. AS soon as our an
Choir was down all but two or three of
our crew disappeared, and the captain
and agents sat down to a luncheon in
the cabin. Not a box had yet gone
over the rail when the Chinese on deck
broke loose. In 80 seconds every man
but the captain was sailing into them.
They were armed with knives only,
while we had cutlasses. No firearms
were used. The fellows made good
stand for about five minutes, and then
we began driving them. No quarter was
given. When the last living yellow
devil went overheard, there were 80
dead ones on our decks, OF course, the
row was heard in the cabin. At the
first sound Captain Walters laid his
revolver on the table before him and
said to Chee-Wing-Su:
"There seems to be some skylarking
going on above, but we will not in
terfere with it"
eff my men are creating any trouble
I must go up and stop It," replied the
old pirate.
your men are all right, and you will
remain right here"
They heard the sounds Of battle and
knew that the Cinnamon were being
driven overheard, but the captain talk
ed about the voyage and the profits
and pretended ignorance Of the real
state of affairs When the fight had
ended, the anchor was lifted and the
clipper sailed away out of the harbor.
Chez Wing-Su played the hypocrite at
first. Then he clustered and threaten
ed, and at the end he broke down and
became disgustingly AFFECT The agent
on board with him was in the plot.
He refused to give 1t away at first,
but when he knew that death was the
alternative he talked fast enough. The
game was to seize the clipper and
cargo and murder us all, and If we had
not been on our guard 1t would have
been carried out to the letter.
We made n run for another port
Chez Wing-Su made n big offer for his
life, and as matter of law We had no
right to punish him. l must tell you,
however, that law or no law, he was
hung by the neck to the yardarm,
while the agent was landed on an IN
inhabited island. 1t was n high hand
ed thing to do, you will say, and yet

who owned the clipper, and he seemed
inclined to raise fuss. but with my

They Had All Lost One.

An old gentleman, evidently q gath
ercr of statistics, but with a kindly
face which shaded off to something
like philanthropy about the edges, was
gazing abstractedly down Regent
street. London. Suddenly he stepped
up to a gentleman who was waiting
for bus and, touching him lightly on
the shoulder, said, Excuse me, but did
you just drop sovereign holding
out In his hand the coin mentioned
The gentleman questioned made a
hasty search of his pockets and said,
"Why, so 1 did, and l hadn't missed
It," holding out an eager hand.
The old man drew forth notebook
and took his name and address and
then said, 81 thought So" turning
away.
'Well," said the other, do you want
1t all as reward?"
81 did not find one" said the old
man, 'but it struck me that in large
city like this there must be n lot Of
money lost, and upon inquiry l find
you are the thirty first man who has
lost a sovereign this very morning.
