POWDER HOUSE BLOWS UP.
EXPLOSION OF GOVERNMENT MAGA-
ZINE HEARD FOR TWENTY MILES.
ONE MAN KILLED AND FIVE INJURED AT
FORT WINTHROP, BOST0N-CAUSE OF
ACCIDENT UNKNOWN.

Boston, Sept. 7.-One of the Government
powder magazines at old Fort Winthrop, Gov
ernor's Island. Upper Boston Harbor. blew up
this evening with a alton that was heard
twenty miles away. One dead man and five in
jured were brought to the city by the police
boat, and, while it is believed that this is the
extent of the casualties 1t is possible that
others will be found suffering from the force of
the conclusion. The dead man was Albert H.
Cotton. married of Somervlle.
Negotiations have been pending time
for the release of the island b, the government
to the city as part of the latters park system.
Though the transfer has not been formally COM
pleted, the guard over the island has been some
what relaxed of late. As a result numerous
clubs and pleasure parties have used it, espe-
cially on Sundays The governments only
representative there ordnance sergeant,
who has 10 maintain watch the entire
island.
There are several ramshackle wooden build
ings al the southerly end of the island but the
fort itself, only little of which is visible
blocks being of immense size. The force of to-
day S explosion is shown by the fact that some
OF these great tlocks were hurled several hun
1red Yards. while, one of the largest came down
through the citadel in the centre of the fort,
making hole through which a team of horses
could be driven. All over the island the effects
of the explosion be seen, while in East
Boston, South Boston and the city proper the
conclusion was severe enough to break windows
and shake buildings 10 their foundations.
The powder which exploded consisted OF about
six tons and stored in one of the numerous
casemates built underground around the citadel
The other classmates were empty. Each OF these
apartments was built with granite walls twenty
five feet thick and covered with earth and
masonry to the depth of thirtyhve feet. The
of the accident is unknown.
There were several hundred pleasure seekers
the island. of whom fully hundred and
fifty were within a radius Of 200 yards of the
fort. All covered with dirt and other
debris and many were thrown to the ground by
the concussion.
Sergeant Thomas J. Shaw. in charge of the
premises, was at his quarters at the other end
of the island when the explosion occurred.

HOW MR.. PADDOCK WOULD CURE EVILS.
URGES EDUCATION OF ADULTS AND OF THE
CHILDREN

The Rev. Robert L. Paddock rector of the
Church Of the Holy Apostles. last night began
his sermon with the statement that he hoped
he would never again have TO sound note of
alarm as he had felt called upon to do in his
sermon OF the Sunday before. He did not court
said and It and must be attended with
MANY disagreed bic features but having once
sounded the alarm, he said that he now felt it
his duty to follow it with discussion of the
means by which the conditions he had spoken
against might be bettered.
The theme of his sermon was the education
of the adult. Voters. he said, should be better
informed they might be inspired vote
wisely and honestly. But the adult he thought
was hard TO educate; and this was true espe-
cisllv of men who We're fascinated by the
glamour of their evil associations and habits.
Mr. Paddock declared that first 1T would be
necessary TO bring the masses of the people TO
an awakened interest in lectures on subjects of
an historical. literary and scientific nature and
lead them on to knowledge of what the Amer
ican Government and what it should

He closed by inviting his congregation to join
him in an effort TO bring into the practical,

fact OF the blockade OF Cape Hayten to the Tor

formal protest which they did It then became ap-
narent that the blockade was Intellectual. as an
American schooner had come in reporting no

Commander MCCrea proceeded 10 Cagnette' 1ouho

MYSTERIOUS STEAMER CARRYING WAR
MUNITIONS AND WITH ARMED CREW
SAILS FOR SOUTH AMERICA.
[BY TELEGRAPH TO The TRrRUNE.I

Baltimore Sept There was a mysterious.
warke air about the little steamer Maid of
Patuca which sailed from Baltimore last even
ing for South America. 1t had been said by
agents of the vessel that she was TO carry sup
plies for parties constructing a jetty at the
mouth of the Patuca River. Honduras. but the
impression prevails along the waterfront that
she is n fbuster carrying ammunition to the
insurgents in Colombia. In her hold are cases
of dynamite and boxes of rifles. with a large
quantity of ammunition and other stores which
would be of great value to the insurgents With
their guns and cartridge belts the crew seemed
quite out of place on the little steamer. Every
man was armed with a rifle and a belt
full of cartridges. The alleged crew was entirely
too large for the vessel She could be handled
easily by one third of the number enrolled on
her list.
Practically in charge of the outfit was John
Toole who had considerable experience in fill
clustering engineer on the Three Friends
when she was running arms to the hghttng
Cuhans. Before going the Three Friends he
was employed on several other flibustering
steamers. Several other members of the

WHAT HAPPENED TO DAVIS

Robert J. Davis works in the audit ing department of big town corpora ton. Robert J. Davis is also sales man for the same company. The man in the auditing department is short and thin and possesses a Shrill, squeaky little voice. The salesman is big man, with q deep bass. voice. Both are married. The other day the telephone bell rang in the office and a woman's voice called for MT. Davis MT. Bob Davis" The boy called the salesman to the phone. The other Davis had gone out.
 ssHello, Bob." said a wonlan's voice as the big salesman took up the re ceiyer. "Why didn't you meet me at noon as you promised, do you think l have nothing to do but to walt around in the cold?'
 Now, Davis, the salesman, had made no engagement with anybody for noon that day, so he naturally said, ..Who is this talking?"
 ''Who is it?'' snapped the woman's voice. You're Bob Davis, afn't you?s
 ssYes," said the salesman in his deep voice.
 Don't try to scare me by talking down in your boots.' went on the wo- man. ''I'll teach you to make appoint ments with me and then not keep them.'
 You must be joking said Davis, who was entirely at sea.
 .sI'll show you whether I'm joking or not when I get you home tonight" the woman answered.
 sBut. madam-a the salesman began.
 Don't you but madam me- snapped the woman. I'll teach you to treat your wife in this way. What woman did you eat lunch with, sir?'
 T don't know what you are talking about" said the big salesman.
 Well it won't take me more than five minutes to show you this evening.
 Just then the man at the phone heard a untitled schriek at the other end of the wire. Then a voice reached him faintly, saying in shrill whisper, s'Why, Bob, where did you come from? thought was talking to you on the wire.' In answer, still more faintly he heard, T was delayed, dear, and came as soon as I could. It's only quarter after noon nOW.''
 Then the phone was hung up with snap, and Bob Davis, the salesman, went back to work feeling as if he had been prying into another mans private Tribune.
