Good Chance for Saving.

A naval officer recently returned from
the Isthmus of Panama tells the follow
ing story concerning the wealthiest man
on the Isthmus:
"Senor NJ is known all over the
Isthmus as the stingiest man who ever
lived. He will have no lights in his
house, except candles; and the lone can.
die in his sitting room is not burned at
night when he is talking to visitors and
is not compelled to have light.
"The old man has nephew who makes
the money fly. A-short time ago he called
on his uncle at night. While they were
talking the old man blew out the candle.
"What did you do that for?' the young
ster asked.
"Why, we don't need the light while
we are talking the uncle replied
while the uncle was talking earnestly
the boy began to shuttle about in the dark.
Much annoyed by the interruption, the
old man said: What are you doing9'
"Only just taking off my trousers the
boy replied. I don't need them in the
dark and want to keep from wearing
them out

Pats Liberality.

Father Doyle, of the Catholic World
tells this story of parishioner of his,
Patrick O'Relily:
One morning "Pat" carelessly threw
five dollar gold piece into the contri-
button box thinking it was dime. He
grieved about it so deeply and volubly
that at length the matter came to the ears
Of the father himself. He sent for 'Pat." ="
"Here, Pat," he said, "is your five dol
lar gold piece. Be more careful in the
future" And he handed it to him.
To his surprise "Pat" pushed away his
hand.
"No father" said he, "take it, I gave it
to the church. Let it 60 to the devil.

Invited the Limit.

1t is necessary for Judge Parker to
have something to talk about since he
refuses to be interrogated on political
questions, and he has a story of a young
man in Savannah named DuBose, who
invited his sweetheart to take buggy
ride with him. The young woman had a
very fetching lisp. When they reached a
rather lonesome bit of road the young man
announced:
This is where you have to pay toll.
The toll is either kiss or squeeze"
And the modest young woman simply
replied: "Oh, Mr.. Du Both!'

FOUR PERSONS KILLED
SCORE or OTHERS INJURED IN
 CHICAGO EXPLOSION.
OverpresSure cy vanka Confaininw Gas is Believed to Have Caused the Accident~-Wfndows. Shattered
 for BIOcks.

Chicago, Nov. 1S.-Four persons were killed and score of others in- jured by a gas explosion that con1- pletely destroyed the plant of the Pyle Electric Headlight Company in South Chicago today. The shock of the ex- plosions were so severe that all the buildings near the demolished plants were badly damaged and windows were shattered for blocks and persons walk ing In the streets were thrown from their feet at a great distance. Over pressure on tanks containing gas is believed to have caused the accident. The dead:
 Ralph Wells, Superintendent for the Pyle National Electric Headlight Com pany; Amos Watkins, Assistant Super intendent for the came company: George Muehl. draftsman. employed by the Peoples Gaslight and Coke Com pany; Thomas Jennings, employed by the Pyle Company.
 Of the injured. William H. Maloney. blown from the third floor of the building and Alfred Cox, internally in- Jured, will probably die.
 Many persons who were walking in the street near the plant were injured by flying debris.
 All of the dead were buried under tons of burning timber and hot brick and iron, making it impossible to re- move their bodies for hours after the accident occurred.
 The scene of the explosion Is the old Hyde Park Gas Plant. Through lease the big plant is occupied partly by the Pyle Company. which is largely en- gagged in supplying illumination for railroad coaches.
 This illuminant is forced into small retorts. In order to make this possi- ble, the retorts are subjected to an extremely high pressure. It was such a tank that caused the first explosion. It burst with a flash and a roar that shook the earth and seemed to lift the building from it's foundation. Amid the hurricane of debris workmen were blown out of the structure far into the street about the building.
 Before any one realized what had happened, retort after retort exploded in such rapid succession that 1t was almost impossible to distinguish the detonations.
 There were nine such explosions in all. which left the plant in flames. Part of the demolished structure is oc- cupied by the Peoples GasIight and Coke Company and with the spread of the flames 1t was feared that two iarxA tanks filled with gas would become ir nited. but hard fighting on the part of fully hundred firemen. finally sub dued the flames and prevented an ex- plosion which would undoubtedly have caused a great loss of life and proper- ty.
 The total loss caused by the acci- dent is estimated at $75,000.

FREIGHT STEAMER BURNS.

Her Crew Rescued By Pasaing Vessel.
 New York. Nov. 1S.-While bound down Long Island Sound on one of her regular passages from this city and New London. Conn.,, the freight steam CT Mohawk of the Central Vermont Railroad. took fire off Horton's Point L. l., and was burned to the waters edge early today. Her crew. except the watchman, was rescued by a pass ing steamship and taken to Fall River, Mass. It is believed the Mohawk will be total loss and that little. if any. of her cargo will be saved. .t
 The Mohawk left New York last even ing with a full cargo of general mer- chandise. She had twenty-two persons on board, including two women. As the freighter passer Horton's Point, tht, lighthouse keeper saw flames break ing from the boat and a few minutes later she was wrapped In flames. As- sistance was near at hand in the form of the Fall River line steamer Boston, which had closely followed the Mohawk down the sound and those on board the burning steamer with the one excep- ton noted were soon taken off.
 The flames had passed beyond all control. however, and she was aban- doned to her fate. A few moments after the Boston had resumed her. in- terrupted voyage, there came the sound of a heavy explosion and mass of blazing debris accompanied by a burst of flames shot up from the center of the abandoned freighter.
 A watchman who was on duty when the flames were discovered failed to reach the Boston when she stood by to give assistance and 1t is supposed he lost his life.

FLAYs HOUSE OF HAPsBURG.
Has Been the Curse of Austria for GOO
 Years, Says Socialist,


 Years, Says Socialist.
 Vienna, Nov. 1S.--During the ses- sion of the Reichsrath this afternoon. Herr Pernerstorfer. one of the social ist leaders, made a violent attack on the imperial dynasty.
 Referring to the Innsbruck affair he alleged that the highest influences had been used to prevent harmonious un- derstanding being reached between Germans and Italians within the mon- archy adding the settlement of nation al difficulties in the Tyrol were now rendered impossible for many years. The speaker proceeded to the dynas- ty, which he charged with having been responsible for all the unhappy con- ditions prevailing In Austria. The Hapsburgs, he said, mad always re- garded the country as an object of ex- ploitation and had been a burden upon the people for 600 years.
 The members of the imperial family were not even prominent for personal qualities. The women, he asserted. were bigots and the men clerical parti- sans. mostly ignorant and uneducated. He concluded with characterizing the Hapsburgs as the evil fortune of the realm.
 Count Dzieuduszyoki the newly cleo ted leader of the Polish party. indig- nantly protested against Pernerstor- fer's speech which he said would not be permitted in any other parliament of the world.

INLAND MAIL SERVICE.
Report of shallenberser Gives Account

Report of Shallenberger Gives Account
 of Cost.
 Washington. Nov. 1s.-The annual re- port of W. g. Shallenberger, second Assistant Postmaster General shows that the annual rate or expenditure for all inland mail transportation service during the last fiscal year was $67.sS1,- 430. To this is added $2.516,o5S for foreign mails The largest items. in the postal transporations agures are the star routes, which number 1S,T43, and an annual rate of expenditure of Ss,s34,023; railroad routes 3.00s in num- ber with 1s6,s07 mileage and an annual rate of expenditure of $3s,177.377: rail- road postoflces car routes numbering 2s4 and an annual rate of expenditure of S5.51S,234 and railway mail service (offlcers and clerks) 11,444 in number, involving an expenditure of $i2.Os5,437.
 Tn Hawaii the star route and mail messenger service at the various ports are not so arranged as to connect with mail steamers at any time whether the steamers are running on regular schedule or at irregular intervals. To indicate the large increase in the volume of malls carried by the rail- roads, 1t is pointed out that the expen- ditures for railroad transporations with railway postoffdcea cars during the four years period, 19o2-05 was $4e,45S.146. an increase of over IT per cent over the previous four year period while the revenue of the postal service was $139,- 7S1,795. an increase of over 40 per cent over the previous four years period. The report says it is evidently the de- sire of the American people to send parcels of small average weight abroad and that our rates of postage favor this practice. r..a ..5.....t: q.

Russia Prepares to Build an Enormous
 Navy.


 Russia Prepares to Build an Enormous
 Navy.
 St. Petrsburg Nov. 19.-(2:05 A. Nj. )-America Is likely to profit both directly and indirectly from the execu- tion of the large naval program which Russia is now elaborating.
 The vital importance of the sea power has been Russia's bitterest les son of the war and the government is fully determined that the maintenance of the empires position in the fu- ture as a first class power will be impossible without an adequate navy. If the losses the Pacific fleet has al- ready sustained should be followed by disaster to A$niral Rojestvensky's squadron 1t will be necessary not only to rebuild the whole navy but to increases its strength. The immensity of the task seems to be fully appresia- ted. While some of the contracts will be placed abroad owing to the limited facilities of Russian yards (and 1t IS expected that at least one big ship will be constructed in America) the ad- miralitys plans will be directed to- wards ultimate divorce from depen- dence upon foreign shipbuilders by the organization at home of the vast ship building. armor plate, ordinance and kin dred industries. For this purpose 1t is realized, however, that foreign build CTS and specialists must be attracted and some alluring prospects are likely to present themselves. Vickers Sons and Maxim and Armstrong. Whitworth and Son. Ltd, of England have already made advances but owing to the anti English sentiment British firms are not meeting with a cordial reception. The disposition Is to turn towards France, Germany and the United States and a great plant at Edbau or on the banks of the Neva, directed by American brains and possibly an association of French and German enterprises. is one of the possibilities of the near future.
