Of a dynamite explosion. As "A result
Of the explosion ed Parker, one of the
prisoners is nursing q hardly burned
face and head.
Parker. who looks after the furnace
in the cellar. piled the firebOx full of
coal early in the morning and closed
up all the drafts. The result was the
accumulation in she furnace of large
quantity of coal gas. An hour or so
later Parker went to the furnace to
shake it I'D a little. The shaking re-
leased a smothered fame. There was
q report like @ cannon shot and the
Jail shook as If an earthquake held it
in its grasp.
SCOT. fine coal and smoke permea ted
every. part of the building. The force
OF the explosion blew the doors open
ard the full fash of the flame caught
Parker in the face and on the head
His hair was burned badly, his face
blistered all over and pieces of fine
coal were buried in his flesh. His face
was covered with SCOT and when he
rushed upstairs JaileT Thomas thought
he was one Of the colored prisoners
seeking escape IN the supposed jail
delivery
The prisoners were considerably ex-
cited. but the cause Of the explosion
was soon learned and quiet was re-
stored. A doctor was called in to look
after Parker's wounds. which proved
not to be serious. Parker has now re-
signed his job as chief stOker at the
county prison.
