ANOTHER EXPLOSION.
The Glycerine Building at Keystone
Powder w orks Destroyed.
TWO MEN MEET DEATH
The Bodies of George ii. Dickinson
and AIonzo Cheesbro Terribly
Mutilated--Third Shock of
the Kind in Eleven
Years.


Yesterday afternoon about 30
O'Clock our towns people were again
startled by Il terrific explosion, and
having had similar experiences
they at once eonjectured that it
was one or the other of the Powder
Works. Everybody rushed to the
streets and soon located where the
terrible shock had come from, by
the smoke hanging in the heavens
above the Keystone Powder Works.
Hundreds of our citizens hurried
to the scene of the disaster and
many waited around the company's
Office to receive the news by tele-
phone. To those having relatives
at the works the suspense was
agonizing.
The employees, after recovering
from the shock made a search for
the missing men in hope that they
had had warning in time to get
away from the fearful danger.
Alonzo Cheesbro, who had just
gone to the building a few minutes
before theaccident to wash outsome
soda bags, was the first found, about
% yards above, where he had been
at work. His legs were both blown
off also his hands and other
wise badly mutilated.
The remains of Geo. II. Dickin-
son, the only one employed at
the glycerine building was blown
about seventy-fve yards up the
hill and terribly mangled. When
the accident occurred Mr.. Dick
inson was just in the act of
making the last run which would
have finished his days work, and
the cause of the explosion will ever
remain a mystery.
Mr. Dickinson is survived by
wife and two children who reside
in the East ward. His age was
about 81 years. lie has lived in
Emporium a long time
Mr.. Cheesbro has resided onWest
Creek for number Of years and is
survived by a wife and three child
ren.
The grief OF their families is most
appalling and elicits the profound
sympathy of the entire community.
The bodies were taken in charge
by funeral director LaBar and
prepared for burial after which they
were taken to their respective
homes. Up to the hour of going
to press no definite arrangements
have been made in regard to the
funeral Of Mr.. Dickinson.
Services over the remains of Mr..
Cheesbro will be conducted at the
family residence at two O'Clock and
interment made in Newton ceme-
terry on Friday.
Mr.. Dickinson carried an insur-
ance policy with the New York
Life Co., and we have been unable
to learn whether Mr.. Cheesbro was
fortunate enough to be insured or
not.
Both men were very popular with
all who knew them and will be
missed by large circle of ac-
quaintances.
Coroner Baker visited the scene
of the explosion, and empanelled
the following jury: f. W. Welsh,
VIM. Shnyder, JOS. Lechner, Edwin
G. Clarke, Harvey Welsh and n.
F. Johnson. who after viewing the
bodies and examining u number of
witnesses, among the members of
the company and employees,
rendered ii verdict that in accor-

The National Republican Con
gressional Committee has establish
ed headquarters for the ecoming cam
paign, in the st. James Building,
26th and Broadway, this city, and
is rapidly getting under way the
preparations for the contest for the
next House of Representatives.
Chairman Babcock, and Represen-
tative Overstreet, Hull and Sher-
man, with a large staff of assistants
are on hand. The textbook for the
campaign is being distributed to
the Congressional nominees, and
the Chairman of the State Comit-
tees. and other literary matter, con-
sisting of speeches, pamphlets, etc.
-
A little later in the season large
corps of speakers will be sent into
the field and the voters of the land
will be given an opportunity to hear
the principles of the Republican
Party eXpounded from platform and
stump by some of the most brilliant
takers in the United States. Col
onel Henry Casson, of Wisconsin,
is in charge of this feature Of the
work.
The first effort Of the Congress-
ional Committee will be to arouse
the attention of the Republican
voters to the fact that the coming
fight for Congress will not be a
walk-over. On the contrary, there
is evidence that it will be a vigorous
contest, and that only by the voters
railing to the old party in full
strength on election day can the
next House be carried. There was
never a time when the general con

were more favorable to Republicans
than now tits because of the very

and you see the new French stock
ings worn by the swag
ger woman. Insectward they
all go, bees, wasps and even the harm
less domestic fly clarifying many a
modish instep.
BY contrast with this giddiness plain
silk stockings seem almost nun-like.
But, of course, the lace trimmed ones
are dear, too dear for the majority of
US. So let me advise all those who
hunger after gay ankles to buy the
cotton gauZe stockings with colored
silk embroideries. The buggy things
are on some of these, too, and quite a
splendid pair can be had for so cents.
Returning to the color schemes of
the French costumes an elegant gown
introduces yellow, black and turquoise
blue in its elaborate lace trimmings.
White Chinese gauze is the material of
the dress, which bears the magic
stamp and Illuminating touch of one
of the best French makers.

making are the simplest, when you
come to look into them
A delightful garden party frock of
dead white Russian lace, over an APP
pie green slip, afforded a glimp.e as to
why the Paris gowns fall better than
ours. For one. thing. the very deep
stiffening the New York dressmakers
put in the drop skirt was missing. No
more than three inches of crinoline
was placed in the hem, and the shaped
tiounce was deep enough to make the
flare gradual Three tiny killed ruffies
finished the bottom of the green drop
skirt, ruchings of violet chiffon edging
them. These gave the houncing look
about the feet without the funnel sug-
gestion, and every movement of the
skirt raVished the color-loving eye. All
over the white lace slip there were APP
piled flowers of violet chiffon, and the
dropping shoulders of the bodice were
deftly and simply managed. In fact
they were made entirely by the shape
of the lace yoke, which here fell over
the arm in squares epaulette pieces,
beginning at the stock band. The
bodice proper was of violet chiffon

The tendency of all smart sleeves is
to spread at the elbows or wrist The
shoulder portion of them is close and
fiat and the more dropping the sug-
gestion the later the design. If we
only stay where we are we shall be
gracefully sleeved. But who knows
which way the wind will blow next?
With all these smart gowns, and
garden parties now frightening into
the early hours of night. some sort of
elaborate wrap is necessary. Those
shown for summer evening wear are in
two lengths, long coats which cover
the entire gown, and short dolman-li like
sacques. The little lace coats in the
last designs are very charming, the
flowing sleeves and low cape collars of
these promoting very graceful effects

MIDSUMMER HAIR HINTS.
The Care of the Hair During Hot
Weather-Those Things Which the
summer Girl Should Do, and Those
Which She Should Leave Alone.

The girl whose mind is not hopeless
ly given over to the frivolities and van
tiles of summer resort life will avail
herself of vacation opportunities to
enhance one of her chief attractions
her hair. The prevailing custom of
riding. walking, boating and playing
the various outdoor games without
hat will prove her strongest ally in
the good work, ii only she will give a
little time and thought to this import
ant matter.
Hair culturists-and, by the way, this
is now recognized as a profession of
some dignity in every large city-as-
sert that in the early fall they have
their geratest rush of customers,
drawn almost entirely from the ranks
of people who have been out of town,
presumably recuperating for their win
ters work or social duties. Body,
nerves and mind have been rested and
cared for, but the hair has been Woe
fully neglected during that season of
the year most trying on woman's
crown of glory.
In the first place, the hair being
classed with vegetable growths, renews
its life with the rest OF nature in the
spring, and this fresh crop, SO to speak,
should be tended with loving care to
insure an even, luxurious growth by
fall Secondly, heat and perspiration
invite frequent shanpoos, and if this
is mot properly done, serious damage
may be wrought. Even the better
class of summer resort hotels do not
always afford the conveniences of the
modern city home. Unless a woman pa
troniZes a reliable hairdreSSer she
should learn to care for her own hair
properly. The last is the best plain,
for reliable hairdressers are not always
to be found at summer resorts.
At least once a week shampoo thor
oughly with the following mixture:
Lay a cake of the purest soap OBJ
tainable in a quart vessel, a pitcher af-
fording the best facilities. Add a pint
of boiling water and stir until strong
lather is formed. Lift out the cake of
soap, and, if the hair is very oily, add
a teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda.
Never use ammonia or powdered bo-
rax. Wash hair and scalp thoroughly
with this mixture while still warm,
and rinse with warm water Never
yield to that very natural tendency in
hot weather to use cold water for rims
ing. The sudden change in tempera-
ture is bad for both hair and scalp. If
the hair is exceptionally dry, a tea
spoonful of sweet almond oil may be
added to the final rinse water
It is in drying her hair that the av-
erage summer girl does the greatest
mischief. She should beware of the
rough Turkish toweling, using, with
as little energy as possible, and old,
soft towel. Then let the sun complete
the work. lifting the hair both to ven
tilate IL and to let the sunlight pene-
trate to the scalp. This will in a
measure ward off the formation OF
strata OF hair in different shades.
An unfOrgivabe custom h. that Of
washing the hair just before retiring.
There are girls 50 intent upon day
time pleasures that they wash their
hair after dark. and. with a half heart

loose and still moist locks hanging over
the edge of their pillow to dry out dur
ing the night.
Another evil habit for the hair is
permitting salt water to dry on the
scalp. Surf bathers, especially those
who summer regularly by the sea, are
apt to undervalue the effects of failure
to shield the hair from salt water. II

shampoo is not necessary. Salt wa
ter drying in the hair means harsh
locks and irritating scalp diseases.
Eschew the brush in summer, and let
your watchword be ''Ventilate." Brush
ing the hair does not stimulate the
scalp. 1t merely makes the hair smooth
and glossy, which can better be accom-
plished by gently rubbing strands or
hair between the fingers. The best
method of stimulating the scalp Is
massage, which any girl can practice
instead of the old-time injunction OF
100 strokes nightly with a stiff bristle
brush. Lift the hair up from the
scalp, allowing the air to pass through
it close to the roots, and gently mas
sage, using the balls of the fingers,
never the tips.
If perspiration causes itching, sham

thrice weekly. An egg shampoo often
affords relief, but this should not pc

1t is at Newport, Saratoga and other
smart summer resorts that one sees
these bewitchingly frivolous costumes
in their finest flower. And at these
places, as in Paris, they are not con-
fined to the pleasures of green and ex-
elusive lawns, but, after o'clock, are
worn everywhere.
The chiffon parasols which accom-
pany these bewildering costumes are
frequently garlanded with small flow
ers, tiny morning glories. rosebuds and
violets forming fringes for the edge.
In the toilettes of the French cos
tuners exquisite color schemes are OBJ
served, and a tendency toward tinted
laces. Pistache green and turquoise
blue are the odd hues which appear in
several of the rich laces, whose ochre
yellows contrast superbly with the bits
of jewellike color. All red lace is also
seen, in heavy guipure and Valen-

SOME SUMMER SALADS.

The Lack of American Tables Is the
Bit of Green-Keep Cool and
Healthy with the WeII-Made SnI-
nds
No food is more wholesome nor more
nutritious than the well made salad.
One great fault with the average
American table is the absence of this
dainty bit of green. For the summer
season it is best to eliminate the heavy
meat mixtures, which, with their huge
proportion of fat, are better reserved
for cold weather. The two dressings
which are necessary to understand are
the simple French and the mayonnaise.
but for the every day dinner the
French dressing is infitely to be pre-
ferred. The mayonnaise is not so
easily digested, and is better reserved
for occasional use, or for the supper,
when the main dishes are less likely to
be heating. The recipes given below
are all available during the warm
months:
MayOnnaise Dressing.
To make a thoroughly good mayon-
naise dressing allow one egg to half
pint of OIL half a teaspoonful of salt,
a dash of cayenne pepper and lemon
juice as required Stand the oil and
the egg in the refrigerator until thor
oughly chilled and when about to mix
the dressing, place a bowl in a pan of
ice water. Drop the yolk of the egg
carefully into the bdwl and set the
white aside. Drip the oil on to the
yolk drop by drop, stirring with a sill
yer or wooden fork until a smooth
paste is formed. Then continue pour
ing the oil, but slightly faster and al
ternating with a drop or two of lemon
juice. When the entire quantity of oil
is exhausted add the salt and the pep
per and lemon juice to suit the taste.
The dressing should be rich, smooth
and of about the consistency of thick
cream. If, as sometimes happens, it
shows a tendency to curdle in the
progress of making or becomes too
thick, so it will not pour from the
spoon add a little of the white of the
egg beaten stiff. If, in spite of all
those precautions the dressing should
curdle, take another egg and begin
again, dropping the curdled mayor
naise slowly into it and stirring Wig
orously all the while.
French Dressing.
For this. as for all other salad dress
ings, it is important to use the best
oil. The quantity given will be <ound
sufficient for three people. and can be
repeated as many times as necessary.
Rub the bowl lightly with a Glove of
garlic, put into it a quarter of tea
spoonful of black pepper, a scant half
teaspoonful of salt and three table
spoonfuls of olive oil Stir with a
wooden spatula until the salt is thor
oughly dissolved; then add one table
spoonful of vinegar, plain or tarragon,
and stir for one minute. Serve imme-
diately. If possible, make the dressing
