Father.
New Orleans, April 2. - Charles Oliver.
aged fifteen years, of Algiers. was arrest
ed yesterday for breaking open tombs,
despoiling the collins of their metal clasps,
and then robbing the skeletons Of what
ever valuables had been inferred with
them.
He defied arrest and was knocked down
three times before subdued. Then he
fought with his teeth. His ~nine-year-old
brother was also arrested.
Oliver is a perfect type Of degeneracy.
His criminal record began when he was
five years of age. and his parents. re-
spectacle people, are afraid of him. 1t
developed after his arrest that Oliver was
the head of a band of boy thieves. He
admits his leadership and glories in it.
A few months ago the boy asked his
mother for 5 cents. She refused him and
he told her he intended to murder the
family. He burned the wardrobe of his
Younger sister. The night afterward he
crept from his bed and set fire to the
house.
The family narrowly escaped death. Be
cause of the refusal of his father to COM
ply with some request. he knelt on the
deck of a vessel. in the rigging Of which
the parent was at work, and prayed aloud
hat he might fall and break his neck.
A few weeks ago he was robbing a flat
boat when discovered by a policeman.
Oliver jumped into the river, swan to a
floating log and, defying the policeman
to shoot aim, drifted off to safety.

Terrific Explosion Occurs In q Ten
nessee Coal Mine.
Chattanooga, Tenn, April 2. = AZ 4:45
O'Clock yesterday afternoon an explo-
sion of gas In the Nelson mine of the
Dayton Coal and Iron company at
Dayton. Tenn, ignited the dry Goa
dust in the mine and caused a terrific
explosion. Twenty-Five men are known
to be dead. Ten bodies have been re-
covered. Twelve bodies are still in the
mine. Gas exists in the Nelson mine
and the men are required to use safety
lamps. 1t is the rule Of the company
for the miners to place their fuses
ready to be lighted for blasts just be-
fore quitting work each day, and there
are workmen known as "fremen,'' who
go through the mine after all the
miners are out and set off these blasts.
The miners quit work at 4:3O o'clock
yesterday afternoon. 1t takes them
about forty-five minutes to get out of
the mine. The two "fremen'' who are
supposed to have caused the explosion
are Lark Hunter and John Harvey.
They shot the blasts about 4:45 o'clock.
before all the miners could get out Of
the mines. 1t is supposed one of the
tuScS was ueIecllVe ana resulted IN
what is known as a blown blast" The
flame shooting out from the
Blast Ignited the Gas
which in turn ignited the accumula-
ton OF dry coal dust in the mine The
explosion that followed was horrible
in It's Intensity. It shot out of the
mouth of the mine and completely
wrecked the shed at the mine entrance.
Three men were killed while standing
outside the mine and two seriously and
pne fatally injured. This mine has been
the scene of two serious explosions in
the past. In 1889 four men were
killed and eight seriously injured by
m explosion Of gas. Dec. 20, 1895. an
explosion Of mine lust occurred in
which twenty-Asght lives were lost.
This was caused by a miner carrying
an open lamp, contrary to regulations.
In May. 1901, an explosion of a similar
nature occurred In the Shalliday mine,
operated by the aame company, in
which twenty-one lives were lost. The
force Of the explosion in the Nelson
mine yesterday a terrible. Bodies
were literally mangled and torn to
pieces. The company states that there
were but seventy-flve men at work in
the mine. Most Of them were out of
the mine when the explosion occurren.

The arrangements were perfectly made,

Hynes had declared his opposition to the

alert to prevent it. The matron was
present, but was so much preoccupied
with her duties that she was unaware
what was going on.
Mrs. Francis and her party called at
the Tombs. Patrick was escorted to her
and the guard stepped outside. The we'd
ding contracts were then signed by Pat
rick and Mrs. Francis In duplicate. This
form of marriage is lawful when wit
messed by two persons. A copy Of the
contract has been filed with the city clerk.

South Bend, Ind. April 2. - DIR. j. c.
Modrack, one of the most highly educated
physicians in Indiana. is missing, and the
chances are that he is now on his way to
Germany. He leaves behind him two
wives-Mrs Minnie Modrack of this city,
whom he is said to have married at Buff
falO in 1874, and Mrs. Kate Modrack Of
Marion, whom he married at Elkhart in
1900.
The dual life of the doctor. who grad
uated from Ohio State Medical College of
Columbus, Ohio, Tueboing and Heidel-
berg, Germany, was exposed when an at
tempt was made to arrest him at Marion
on a charge of having committed a GRIM
inal operation on Miss Hite, a popular
young woman of Wyandotte, who after
wards died and thus exposed him.
Modrack to his friends appeared to be
shy and bashful, but it is understood that
he was a terror in his homes. After
marrying his South Bend wife she sent
him to Germany and paid his expenses at
the universities and then allowed him to
go through with $1,000 Of her money.

Standing room had Deer taken at the
matinee which was proceeding when
the flames broke out. h audience
retired in good order. but some women
tainted after reaching the street.

the matinee, n the performance OIL
Sag Harbor" by the Pike Stock COM
pany, with Miss Collier and Byron

ceeded only ten minutes when the por-
tiers between the corridors and the
north aisle
Caught Fire.
The prompt efforts Of Manager D.. Fl.
Hunt and his staff and those on the
stage were most successful in averting
a panic. The fire started from some
unknown cause in the basement store
room of the Adams Express company,
and extended up through the first floors
Of the Adams express office and Joffee's
grocery TO the auditorium. The only
thing burned in the auditorium was the
portiere, but the volume of smoke In
dicated a serious fire under the audi

damaged from water that 1t will not
be used any more this season. n
