Washineton's Wheat Crop.

There is nothing in the latest re-
ports received at the department OF
agriculture which tends to diminish
the midsummer prospect that the 1905
wheat crop of the state of Washing
ton will be from 100000 to $4,000
900 bushels, states a Washington, d
c., report. The October estimate OF
spring wheat in the state gives the
yield per acre at 22.5 bushels, which is
about four bushels to the acre larger
than the estimated yield of 1904. These
figures, although official, are prelim
mary in character, and are subject
to revision next December after
more careful examination of the har
vest has been made.

Steamfitter Struck Match.

Ishpeming, Mich, Nov. 6.-Three
children were killed and Is persons

here which completely destroyed the
Miners National bank. The dead:
Steven Goodman, aged IL years; Alice
MCGEE, aged 10 years; Edward Nc
Grath, aged ~. Fatally injured, Jas.
F. Mullen.
A gas leakage in the basement of
the bank building was responsible for
the explosion and loss of life.
The victims were all church attend
ants, on their way home from mass.
Anderson and Peterson, steamfitters,
had been engaged to make repairs to
the heating plant, and as they entered
the building they detected the smell
of gas. They thought little of the
circumstance, however, and as they
passed into the furnace room they
struck a match to a gas jet. There
was a terrible explosion. The steam
filters were blown through the door
way at the rear of the building, while
the building collapsed, falling into the
street, a mass of ruins. A crew was
switching cars on the sidetrack neal
the bank and cars blocked the cross
ing when the explosion occurred. Many
persons were standing on the wall
awaiting the passage of the cars, and
thus were within reach of the explo
sion. There were a number of narrow
escapes from death or serious injury
James Mullen was in his office in the
bank building wnen the accident oc
Cured, and he was not taken from
the debris until the rescuers hat
worked for two hours in clearing ava,

ed were fearfully mangled. The safet!
