SALOON SMASHED
BY Explosion in the Beer Vault
--Saioonist Hurled Across

Mt Vernon, o., Dec 23.-Jack Row
ley, bartender, went into a Zig beer
cooler located in the rear of Baker E
saloon last night to see about the tenn
perature. Rowley lighted a match and
a terrific explosion followed.
The side of the cooler was blown
away and Rowley was hurled clear
across the street. He was badly burn
ed and cut and is in critical condi
ton. The explosion tore out the rear
of the saloon and wrecked the big front
windows. Chandeliers were jerked
loose and scattered bits of glass over a
crowd of customers. cutting a numbp!
and two perhaps seriously.
The explosion is supposed to have
been caused by fumes from gasolin5
lamp located in the cooler.
