The tanks were of the style

purposes. The fire spread among
the property of the Peoples Gas

pany
Policemen were sent about a
four mile radius warning persons
to move from their homes.
TO prevent damage and injury
In case of another explosion OF
the gas in these mammoth tanks,
Superintendent Wells ordered the
waste pipes opened and soon the
tanks were discharging gas into
the air. This was dangerous
undertaking but it prevented q
larger destruction of property.
After the danger of the larger
tanks exploding had been reduced
to minimum, Chief Engineer
Eustace with several assistants,
entered the grounds and shut of
the supply pipes from the build
ings to the large tanks.
The cause of the explosion Is
unknown. but 1T is thought it was
the result of a search for leaks by
the employees.

G0OD BkoM GOOD AfR

Score another for good fresh air. A young man in Paterson, New Jersey, is furnishing an example of what fresh air can do. He was attacked by pull monary disease some months ago and the doctors declared that he had quick consumption and must sleep in the open air. At first they were content with the removal of the window sashes from the young mans room and he showed marked improvement after sleeping in that atmosphere. When winter came on he did not want to freeze the other people in the house, So he had an open house made in the yard, with tight roof and with the sides made of win dows on pivots. Before he goes to bed the patient warns tiis room somewhat with an oil stove. Then someone comes in, turns out the oil stove and opens all the windows and the patient sleeps till morning wrapped in army blankets. Tn the morning the process is reversed, so that he may have the edge taken off the air before he dresses. The prog. ress toward recovery is declared to be excellent under this heroic method.
 It is beginning to be understood that one who has consumption may get well without having such distant and ex- pensive air as has been the fashion. For instance, it is now known that Connecticut air is good for Connecticut people who have weak lungs.
