FRIDAY. AUGUST Fl. 1909.

The explosion which took place
ct the Delaware Pulp works Oh
Wednesday is the fourth large ex-
plosion which has ever taken place
IN this city or county and it is hoped
that it will be the last. The last ex-
plOsion which resulted III many
lmen losing their lives took place in
the Hagley yard OF the duPonts
powder mills in 1898. Thirteen men
lost their lives. Twelve of the EN-
ployees of the Delaware Pulp Works
have thus far been recorded among
the dead. There are supposed to
be three other er ployees III the
ruins. What caused the explosion
has not yet been asCertained and
probably never will be as the men
who We're working around the III.
igestors have been killed.
The superintendent and officers of
the company are doing all in their
power to find the bodies of the men
whom they have every reason to
believe are lying under tons of de-
lbris, which is being cleared away
ias rapidly as possible by willing
hands. The officials and suDerin-
'tendent of the company did every
thing in their power to elevate the
ssuferings Of those who had been
injured and later removed to the
city hospitals. The Pennsylvania
Railroad Company rendered valua-
sbie assistance by the use of their
Mrecking apparatus which pulled
the boilers and heavy iron parts out
Of the wreck SO as to enable the
worklnen to get at the bodies of the
dead.

THE Republicans of Delaware are
welded to the idea that they want
two United States Senators This
sentiment has been growing strong
er year after year until it is now
about to bear fruit II hundreds of
Republicans did not have an idea
that the party would win this year
they would not have taken the
trouble to go in and yet registered
this year. The average voter thinks
the charFtes are better than ever
for the election of two United States
Senators.

THERE has not been any fat polit.
cal jobs given out by the present
Street and Sewer department and
there is no likelihood OF any being
given out as long as the present d.
rectors control it's affairs. The col
lection of ashes in a new innovation
which the department has underta-
ken and which they think as bust
ness men they can save money to
the taxpayers. They have ordered
several new ash vehicles and as
soon as they are delivered to the
department they will put on teams
and will remove that commodity
from the dwellings throughout the
city. Like everything else the price
for removing ashes this year was
higher than any preceding year.
THE people who love oysters can
rejoice that the news is that the
oyster catch will be good the coming
season. September LIST is the date
set for the luscious bivalves to be
sold on the half shell and served up
fried. steamed or stewed. Much
activity is now going ON amongst the
shippers who are getting ready to
set out for the oyster beds on Sep
tender LIST. The appetizing reed
bird will also be here in September
which is only few days off. Bust
ness should brisk up in few weeks
and the people who went away from
home ON their vacations will Ike back
ready to take up where they left off.

Stockings With White Feet

A physician, in published inter-

urges that the wearing of stockings
with white feet will do more to pro-
mote easy walking and relieve foot
ills than anything else to be suggest

Isle thread in black bind the feet and
make them swell, be says, no matter
how fine and open they may be. The

FLOUR COMMISSION
ENTERS A PROTEST
Bakers Said to Have Advan-
tage Over Wholesalers.
A Competent Inspector for the District
Is Wantcd-Defects in the Old
Law,

The Flour Commissioners of the Dis
trict OF Columbia, Messrs. MAYER, CisseI,
and Earnshaw. have written a letter to
Representative Blanchard, chairman Of
the House District Committee. recon-
mending an amendment to the law regu-
l-ting the inspection of -four in the Dis
trict OF Columbia
The Flour Commissioners call attention
to the fact that bakers are permitted to
receive -four direct from shippers without
having to submit the -four to inspection,
and thus escape che fee of $1.50 which the
local wholesale dealers are required to
pay. The Flour Commissioners recon-
mend the appointment OF competent -four
inspector at q salary Of 81 200 per annuui,
whose duty II shall be to inspect free
Of charge to receivers the various pack
ages of -four, and to examine flour the
soundness of which is IN question for a
fee of 1 cent per barrel
It is believed the fee charged would
more than make up for the salary, and
the balance could be turned into the
Treasury to the credit of the District.
The leading miIlers in the Distrist have
Endorsed the proposition.
