plosion they were not 10 be alarmed. as
II would be but a slight one.
While the company watched the flick
ering flame. Mr.. Cook produced an en-
velope, took from It piece OF paper,
lighted II in the flame and reduced Il
to ashes.
The paper was a note for $500. cover
ing the entire cost of building and fur

of the note was the means taken by the
