I seized axes and crowbars and began pry. | ing out the victims who could be seer or whose faint cries were audible. | In a comparatively short time all the laborers who could work to advantage
 were feverishly throwing and pulling the debris out into Brooklyn Avenhe. Fire Was Concealed. The floors and roof had fallen at an angle and formed a sort of huge cover. under which the fire burned hercely. Not until the firemen had chopped through this did the stream of water begin to have an appreciable effect on the flames. The sufferings of those who were buried beneath were later mutely testified to by their charred and blackened bodies.
 Engineer Riley was among the first to be dug out from the wreck. His escape was little short of miraculous. When the boiler let go he was knocked to the floor and one of the smaller test inE boilers was blown over his prostrate form in such a way that one end rested on some debris high above him, thereby forming shield that kept the falling timbers. bricks and machinery from crushing him.
 The escaping steam. however, burned him frightfully. After his arrival at Grace Hospital Riley's first words were: How did 1t happen? The engine and boilers were all right"
 Gradually the rescuers were working their way downward through the pile. By this time there were no cries or groans to aid them, for the flames had destroyed those unfortunates who were not killed by the explosion or the fall. But the work of rescue continued with unabated haste. When heavy beam or piece of shafting was encountered, a team of horses was driven in and the piece of wreckage was hauled to the street.
 Stretcher-bearers stood beside delivers. and bore away the burned and blackened bodies. In several cases the charred corpses were so hot when recovered that they could scarcely he handled by the undertakers and assistants.
 The hospitals were besieged by rela- tives and friends of the injured men.
 At Emergency Hospital. which was only a short distance from the scene and where many of the injured were carried in wagons. the floors of the reception rooms and even the hall were used as a temporary resting place for the victims Similar scenes were enacted at Grace and Harper hospitals.
 The property loss according to Sec retary Childs, is about ,1S0.000 The firm carried $I0000 tire and some boiler in- surance.
 Subscriptions for the relief of the. suf- ferers have been started.
 Nothing is known as yet about the cause of the explosion The boilers had been recently inspected and the engineer was known as one of the most careful and capable men in the city.
 At midnight the injured at the vari- ous hospitals were reported to be hold ing their own.
 Of the twenty-six dead, four died at the hospitals during the early evening and the other twenty-two were dug from the ruins.

up with lohcstUn over the associations successful
Efforts TO seeiir0 the pardon OF an Indi8g who was
accused OF brutal murder in Montana Then comes
q wan because the supreme court has ordered some
Frespassug indians to get Of the land owned by white
residents III southern California. The injustice" Of
the decision Is commented on an some length.
IN one respect, and in only one SO far as are
able Ia discover after reading the pamphlet is the
work OF the association worth while. That is in Sc
curing the discharge of thieviHg Indian agents. Sey
erJ cases cited where The men whose duty 1t is
took after the wards Of the government have devoted
their entire time to looking after their own personal
interests. The Indians have been robbed IN the most
baretacea man~er and the discharges secured seem to
have been Just.
Ia the main, however, western people viii not sym
pathlze much with the Quixotic spirit which prompts
the Philadelphia organizations efforts The people
out here have had too much experience with the lazy,
tring, lareenous Indian to care very much for him.
1t all very well for those who live in Massachusetts,
IN New York, Rhode Island Pennsylvania and ether
states which given up practically altogether
white people. TO talk about Outrages perp ted the
Indians in tho west
Is is a telescope view they take IF the matter
They look through the little end Of tn insru-
ment, and at their shortcomings through the
large end. The Indians are occupying the choicest
sections of Utah and other western states They are
not taking the advantages of their opportunities
that white would and they should be forced to
content themselves with less give way altogether.
They are by badly treated as the poverty
ridden wretehes who can be found in ans large eastern
city.
We therefore our respectful suggestion
that the good women and the good men composing the
Indian Rights association explore their tenemeus and
their slums. They remind Of that good old Pres
byterian hymn which begins:
"H you cannot cross the ocean
And the heather lands explore,
You can find the heather nearer
You can find them your door,
Look around the corner Of your OWE blocks ladies
and gentlemen and if the enterprise doesn't make you
SO busy you'll forget all about poor Lo then miss
our guess.

horses to lumber wagon Together the
four drove into Portsmouth and ap-
peared before a justice whom they all
knew. They explained the situation and
got his advice, and when they drove
home that night the necessary papers
were drawn up. In a few weeks the
divorces were granted.
Almost Immediately they went to
Portsmouth again, not together this
time however, and there MIR. Lilies
divorced wife became Edith Danner.
and Lizzie Danuer became Lizzie Lilies.
The two women took possession of
each others kitchens and diaries, and
at once the friendly relations of TWEEN
ty-eight years were resumed.
Two months ago-just how it hap
pened Portsmouth and the rest of the
valley are stil wondering-John Lilies
and George Banner faced it out again.
For in those two years each had been
gradually and persistently falling in
love again with his first wife. And
when they left the field and went home
it was to call another council like the
first-of peace and not Of war-and in
the end they came TO the old decision
they would go to Portsmouth and be
divorced and be married as they were
: three decades before and start life over
again.
The second operation took no longer
than the first, and two weeks ago Mrs.
Edith Lilies and Mrs. Lizzie Danner
drove over from Portsmouth and step
ped out at their own original door
steps and took possession OF their an
cient hearthstOnes.

I'VE found we would be happier If
we traded wives, and so we just

And he said if we did it the way he

so we did. And now the law has let

But next year they themselves were

weeks before the four were fast

For twenty-eight years it went ike
that No children came to either home,
and this common loneliness knit the
friendship OF the four more closely. And
then one day, almost before any Of
them knew it, and, what was more re-

New York Worldly

kNeW YORK WOrlQ.)
As the Worlds Washington dispatches this morn
ing set FORTH action the appointment Of Attorney
General Knox has been postponed by the senate ju-
dietary committee for what appears to be grave reason
The Antitrust league makes eight charges against
Mr. Knox, all tending to the same point-that he has
been and still is servant of monopoly before his ap-
pontment working for it paid attorney, since his
appointment using his official powers close the doors
Of the courts against those who would prosecute it
under the federal anti-monopOly law-the Sherman
antitrust act Further, the league charges him with
deliberate Misrepresentation Of facts it and Sen
ator Hoar
When Mr. Knox was appointed last spring the
World inquired earnestly about him In series Of edi-
torials, of them, published April Z, containing
these questions:
Has he ever made single speech for the Repub-
hcan party Is there on record "a single sutterance
from aim IN favor Of Republican principles Has he
record at all in politics Was he ever elected by
the people any Office! Is there solitary act indicat-
IL either the confidence Of the people in his character
or ms sympathy with the people 2"
These questions have never been answered and
are pertinent now as when they were first asked
In view Of the inquiry being made by the judiciary
committee Of the senate the World will supplement
them with this one:
Is Mr. Knox in sympathy with the antitrust law 2
If he Is not, then he is fit to hold the position
Of attorney general It is the duty of the senate to
probe, to PROBE to probe until this question is truly
answered.

She had stitched her young life away,
And was reaching her weary journeys end.

No luxuries ever were hers.

Her life battle, hand hand,
With poverty, want and cold
Through the dreary days and years,
She had carried her heavy lead.
And rested only Sabbath days
When she went TO the house of God
But now that the end had come.

MelodiOus sounds were borne
On the wings Of the angel throng
And they sOOthed the soul of the dying girl
With the angels Christmas song.

And short, and sad was her life story

Must quickly pass away,
And more blessed she who went to God,
