Through the windows most of the
audience left the Baptist church at
Condor Monday night. Those who
could not get through the windows
came out through the entrance, and
brought the door with them, The
haste of the people to leave was
caused by an explosion Of the acct
ylene mechanism used in an illus
trated lecture
The DeMoss family, q travelling
musical troupe, from Sherman coun.
ty, was giving an entertainment in
the church. During a portion of
the programme the lights were ex-
tinguished and stereopticon views
were thrown on a screen. Suddenly
there was sharp report from the
picture machine, followed by q
binding glare.
The terrified audience escaped not
on the order of going, but fled by
the most available avenues. Cloth
ing was torn and bruises and
scratches inflicted as the thorough
ly frightened men, women and chill
dren fought for a path to the out
side and safety. Nine windows and
one doo- were demolished; but no
serious injury was rec 'ived bv any
person.
The picture man stuck to his post
and when the gas in the machine
burned out, those who had been so
eager to leave few moments be-
fore trooped back to see the remain
der of the show and get their mon
ey's worth.

San Francisco, March 29.-Ida
Mooney, girl of Is years, has been
shanghaied and shipped away to
Australia, according to charges
made by J. S. Burke, owner of an
O'Farrell street restaurant, and
Mre. Osborne, of 715 Post street.
The strong and long arm of the A
merican law is to be reached out 10
take her from the steamship Sono.
ma at Honolulu and bring her
back.
Captain Martin and Detective
Bailey, OF the police department.,
are accused Of taking an active par.
in the work of shanghaiing the girl,
and if the charges are true, and
Miss Mooney was sent away on the
steamer against her will, the officers
and all others concerned in the case
may find themselves in serious
trouble. Attorney Averill states
that he is preparing to have habeas
corpus papers served when the So
mona arrives at the island port.
Miss Mooney is an orphan who
was brought from Australia about
tsn months ago by Mrs. Trotman.
formerly matron ofthe asylum in
which the girl was brought up.
With the Trotmans she lived at 715
Post street, where Mrs. Osborne is
the manager of lodging house,
and she worked at Burke's reetau-
rant, 128 O'Farrell street. Mrs.
Osborne and Mrs. Burke took an
interest in the girl. They assert
that she gave her earnings to Mrs.
Trotman; that she was harshly
treated by Mrs. trotman; and that
| when she finally rebelled and refus-
ed to any longer give up her wages
she was arrested by detective Bal
ley at the instance of Mrs Trotmau
and shipped away on the. Sonoma
in spite of her own protestations
and the attempt of Mrs. Osborne
and Mr.. Burke to prevent the alb
duction.

It's easy to be scared in some situa-
tions. Perhaps allowance enough for
tn scared Russians who fired on the
fishermen has not been made. A United
States naval officer who took part in
the Spanish war tells about the terri
BILE nervous tension of the Santiago
blockade, as the result of which thou
sands of shots were actually fired at
pure phantoIns of the imagination"
| during the night watches. For one war
ship to approach another at night was
dangerous proceeding. In the mag
ination of the watchers the sea was
'alive with Spanish torpedo boats"
and "there were many narrow es-
capes," several Of our ships being
struck by American projeetiles. In
a striking comment on the North sea
affair, this naval officer concludes his
statement as follows: If an unsuspect-
ing fishing feet had blown into the ra-
dius of action at Santiago, there would
have been things doing, and any fair
| minded naval officer will acknowledge
it. This was not panic; it was the re-
suit. OF the precautions that always
have been and always will be taken in
war time. When men-of-war are cruis-
| ing in waters where there is any rea-
son to suspect the presence Of an en-
envy, they will take no risks whatever.
An automobile torpedo can be carried
and fired by any kind of craft,
even rowboat, and consequently any
commander of a man-of-war will not
let any craft approach within torpedo
range during war time. He cannot
take the risk. When the weather Is
hazy or misty, searchlight will not
penetrate to any great distance, and
if a peaceful craft is not discovered
until close aboard, the general orders
that are absolutely necessary for the
protection OF a fleet will almost newt
ably cause her to be fired upon. Let
us, therefore, disregard the shrieks Of
the highly excited British press until
the Russians have had chance to ex-
plain; and if it turns out that the acct
dent was the result Of a mistake. let US
be honest. Let us remember the Maine
IL mean the doings off Santiago.
There is undoubtedly more truth than
poetry in that statement. OF course
| the Russians ought not to have killed
anybody, and they must pay well for
doing it. but there are at least two
sides to the story.
