ANDOVER HEARS
A MYSTERIOUS
EXPLOSION

Andover. Mass. Nov. 3.-Mystery still
enshrouded today the explosion that
shook this town awake shortly after
midnight. and that was heard In the
nelghboring towns OF Ballardvale Will
mington Junction and Lowell Junction.
Fears OF recurrence Of the frightful
powder magazine explosion that occurred
IN Tewksbury three years ago were set
az rest by reports Rom Lowell and Ac-
ton that the powder works there were
intact.
SO far as dlligent early inquiry by tel
or the extensive manufacturing plants
In the vicinity had blown up. At first II
was thought possible. that the immense
chimney of n factory near here that was
recently damaged by fire had collapsed
but daylight showed that structure still
standing.
In view Of the lack OF any definite ex-
PLANTATION many people attributed the oc-
currence TO an earthquake. but on ac-
count OF the comparatively small area
anected. the theory was not accepted as
a fact
Buildings were badly shaken in this vi.
cinity. bells were started ringing and
many windows were broken. At Lowell
Junction the telegraph operator said that
from the way his building was shaken
he should think there had been an earth
quake. Haverhill and other points in
this section outside the section already
mentioned reported that no explosion had
been heard. the disturbance being ap-
parently confined aloug n portion OF the
Western division Of the Boston and
Maine railroad.

ing.
'Peary started out with the determine -
tion to reach the pole at all hazards, and
IL is certain that only the impossible pre-
vented that.
1T has been evident that Peary has
had the same experience of getting on
drifting ice and being carried away from
his goal that other explorers have bad.
Probably no other man living would have
got off so well as Peary has. He found
himself on ice that had been broken up
by a storm and was taking him in a con-
trary direction. 1t Is likely that he and
endurance before they gave UP. as In
stanced by the eating OF the dogs. With
out doubt the explorer Is now on his way
home, and when he reaches here we will
hear a wonderful story
"Will Peary ever make tho attempt
again? l do not know. Although IL was
said by the newspapers when he sailed
that II he failed this time he would never
try again, he never told me that, and I
was quite close TO him. The commander
will undoubtedly bring back with him a
wealth OF scientific nnd geographical mat
ter. | consider that one OF the wonderful
features OF this expedition is the fact that
the Roosevelt is coming home with the en-
tire party despite the hardships> they
have experienced"
Peary probably reached within 200 or 2O3
miles ot the North Pole. He surpassed
the D'Abruzzi party by about 30 miles
This was Peary's fifth attempt to reach
the Pole. The other sIedge journeys were
made in the years 1892, 1895. 1900 and 1902

Mr. Grady has been for many years
one OF the most earnest fighters for the
rights OF the people OF the ward and
Messrs. Coffey and Winn have rendered
efficient public service.
The citizens OF the ward are being urg-
ed To send to the city hall men who will
represent them and not be a mere annex

Messrs Cannon and Conaty. who are
well known and able lawyers are winnins
many votes for their ticket by their bold

THAT meeting OF last night in Music
