Dynamite Explosion in JeIIico, Tenn,
Does Great Damage.

Jellico, Tenn, Sept 22.-Twelve
deaths, the injuring of scores of
other persons and 100000 damage to
property were caused here Friday
when carload Of dynamite standing
on a track near the Southern depot
exploded with report that was
heard for 20 miles.
Buildings we're shattered in the
business section of the town and
nearly every piece of glass within
radius of one mile of the scene was
broken.
The explosion occurred at eight
O'Clock Friday morning. The freight
car, belonging to the Pennsylvania
railroad lines, contained $50 boxes,
about 10000 pounds, Of high explo-
sives consigned to the Rand Powder
company, at Clearfield, Tenn.
Two causes are assigned for the ex-
plosion. One is that three parties
we're shooting at mark on the car
and that bullet entered the car and
caused the explosion The other is
that while the car was standing on
a side track carload of pig iron was
switched against it and that the i'm
pact caused the explosion.

REPORT OF GEN. FRED GRANT
Officer Recommends Legislation for
Betterment of the Army.

Washington, Sept. 19.-Maj. Gen.
Frederick D. Grant, commanding the
department of the east, strongly rec
ommends in his annual report some
legislation which will prevent the ex-
odus of enlisted men from the coast
artillery. The shortage is now about
20 per cent. He says that the life for
enlisted men is not very attractive in
many of the smaller posts and they
prefer service elsewhere. The report
contains number of recommends
tions relative to increasing the eff
cheney of the coast artillery as the de-
fensive arm of the nation. Gen. Grant
states that in his last report he said
that fully rs per cent. of the trials by
courtmartial were due to the use of
bad liquor, and this year he estimates
that 80 per cent. of the troubles that
occurred in the army are due to the
use of such liquor. He believes that
with the reesta blishments Of the can
teen the influence of demoralizing re-
sorts would be greatly reduced.

Forests, unnatural Death.

The life Of nearly all forests is cut
short by fire or by the hand Of the
lumberman. When spruce forest is
entirely destroyed by fire young
spruces do not at once spring up and
cover the burned area. The seed bear
ing cones have been burned, and the
spores and seeds Of other plants which
are readily carried by the wind find
their way in first. The task Of prepar-
ing for the forest Is begun again, but
this time 1t is to be shorter one. The
first year after the fire MOSES and
often tiny Towering plants appear.
These are replaced by the fireweed
and other flowers whose seeds are pro-
vided with hairs SO that they reach
such places quickly. These are soon
joined by raspberries, roses and other
bushes. Among these the young seed
lings of aspens appear in a very few
years. The latter grow rapidly and in
a score Of years form q low sunny for
est. An aspen forest makes brilliant
contrast with the dark green forests
Of spruce.-St Nicholas.

ASK WARRANT FOR MORMON.
! COUNTY ATTORNEY IS CITED TO
SHOW CAUSE.
Official Is Asked to Cause Arrest Of
President Smith on Charge Of
PoIygamy.

Salt Lake City, Sept. 22.-Parley p.
Christensen, county attorney Of Salt
Lake county, has been cited to appear
in the criminal division of the state
district court and show why he
should not direct the issuance Of a
4 warrant for the arrest of Joseph F.
Smith, president of the Mormon
church, on charge of sustaining I'M
lawful relations with one Of his five
wives
The citation was issued on the pc
tltion OF Charles Mostyn Owen, who
mas been active in gathering testi-
mony against Senator Smoot.
The complaint was based upon the
fact that on May 81 last President
Smiths forty third child was born
to Mary T. Schwartz Smith the Nor
mon presidents fifth wife, at her
home in this city.
AS witness to the fact the complaint
cited the four other wives of Presi-
dent Smith and several apostles and
leaders of the Mormon church, includ-
ing Senator Smoot and Gov. Cutler.
Friends of Mr.. Christensen charged
that the filing of the complaint was
an attempt on the part of the anti
Mormons to embarrass him in his
candidacy for the Republican nom
nation for congressman Christensen
was defeated for the nomination in
the convention by Congressman How
ell.

The Battered Brtdeeroom.

There are held here many "confden-
ttal weddings" as they are called
when the ceremony is kept unusually
quiet. But sometimes they are too con-
f1dential to please the relatives of the
parties. The coercion of prospective
brides under such circumstances is a
proceeding well authenticated in fact
and fiction. A kidnapped bridegroom,
however, is unusual, though he hap
pened at St Georges not long ago.
He was gentleman Of position, and
he wished to marry lady who had
nursed him through an illness. There
was no cause or just impeachment save
social rank. The gentleman was de-
termined, and the lady seconded his
plans admirably. But the day and the
details leaked out, and before the time
fixed the bridegroom's male relatives
deployed strategically through Mad
dox street and surrounded the church.
He drove up in hanson cab. With
his eyes fixed on the expectant bride,
he prepared to alight. An athletic un-
Gle and a brother sprang forward,
thrust him back, with "Glad to meet
you, old fellow" manner that deceived
the cabman, who obeyed the quick di-
rection he heard and drove the three
away. The lady, with tears in her
eyes, went into the vestry. There
will be no wedding" she said
They've run away with him" And
that was the last st. Georges heard Of
them.-London Mail.
