Explosion Terrific.
Scarcely had he gone fifty feet away
from the building when he heard two
distinct terrific explosions. Judging
from the reports one seemed to come
from the front and one from the real
of the building.
Could See Dead Body.
The building was soon enveloped il
flames and the neighbors who rushed
to the scene could discern the dead ant
mangled body of Postmaster Hedges
in the celler, pinned beneath the de
bris.
Powder in Cellar.
1t Is stated that there were some
cans of powder in the cellar about
three-quarters of the way back from
the front of the building.
The cause of the explosion is a
deep mystery, though it is supposed
that Mr.. Hedge had been taken with
sudden stroke of paralysis and drop
ped a lighted pipe or cigar stub into
one of the powder cans, which explo
sion set off the others. This accounts
for the two distinct explosions.
Hurled Goods Across Street.
The explosion was so sharp that
it carried packages of cat meal, KEEP
in the store, clear across the street ant
into distant yards. Fortunately no ont
but Hedges was in the postoffice a
the time, as the explosion was of suf
ficient power to have killed any one
in the building or near it at the time
Was Highly Respected.
Mr.. Hedges was one of the oldes
residents of this vicinity and was
highly esteemed by all who knew him
His terrible death has greatly shocket
the entire community Mrs. Hedge

was gone. Funeral services were hell
