AT STOCKTON, CAL.
jured and Three Business
HOusex Destroyed.

Stockton, CAL, May 9.-Ten or
twelve persons were severely injured
and three business houses in the CEN
ter of this city were burned by an ex-
plosion which was followed by fire
Friday evening. The explosion oc-
Cured in the rear Of Gerlach & Mo-
rath's shoe store, on Main street, at
eight o'clock, when the street was
crowded with people. The glass
front of the store was blown out and
many persons passing were hurt by
flying pieces of glass. The wall of the
Western Union building adjoining
was blown in, and operators and mes
senger boys were more or less hurt.
Fire broke out at once, and in .
short time three buildings were de-
stroyed, the n occupied by the
Western Union, Orschler's barber
shop, next to Gerlach & Morath's shoe
store, and Schaas & Sons jewelry
store.
Fred Gerlach, the shoe dealer, was
standing in front of his store and
was severely hurt, one ankle being
broken and face and hands cut by
glass.

TOLD OF v~EREsTCHAG1N.
Interview Between the FamOu
Russian Painter and a Young
American Artist.

Verestchagin, the famous Russian
painter, has been brought into re-
newed prominence. The Russian gov
eminent has just decided to purchase
his famous Napoleonic collection for
100, 900 rubles.
The story is told of an American
artist who desired to obtain from the
New York Press. Honest in his opin-
ions, yet reluctant to give them, Yer
estchagin was averse to granting the
American al audience. The young ar
fist, however, was insistent. When
the American consul took a hand in
the affair the Russian painter became
irritated. He consented, though, to
admit the artist and see his painting.
1T is a picture of the great Niagara
Falls of America" said the youth,
conceitedly as he removed the cover
ing from his work.
Naturally, a water COLOR assentel
the Russian, facetiously.
The American smiled an acknowl.
edgment Of a not very complimentary
allusion.
"And what is this?" asked Verest-
chagin.
mist, vapor rising from the gorge
below said the younger artist, hum
bly,, realizing that the great painter
had failed to recognize the purpose
Of his 1imsy work.
"Oh, and why did you not lift the
mist a little higher? Then would you
have removed the picture from the
field of criticism"

ILLINOIS CONVICT LABOR LAW.
Secretary Ross Declares 1t to BE the
Most Advanced Legislation of
That Kind on Record.

Springfield, H., May 9.-David Ross,
secretary of the Illinois state bureau
of labor statistics, Friday declared
that the law just enacted by the Hi
nois general assembly regarding con-
Wet labor is the most advanced legis-
lation of the kind anywhere on rec
ord. The bill, which passed both
branches of the general assembly
without a negative vote, becomes eff
fective July 1, 1904. 1t abolishes con-
tract labor and provides for the I'M
ployment of convicts not to exceed
eight hours per day in the manufac-
ture of articles used by the state and
the various political divisions thereof.
1t is substantially a duplicate of the
measure recommended by the nation
nj industrial commission. The legis-
lature also enacted a new law taking
advanced ground regarding the I'm
ployment of children.
