EXPLOSION
ACetyIene Gas Tank Exploded at
 BrawIey Sunday Night

What might have proved to be a serlons matter occurred at Brawley when the acetylene gas tank at the Bungalow hotel exploded last Sunday night. As 1t was two men were injured one of them quite seriously. The ma chine got out of fix as they are so In the habit of doing and Lew Bennett went in to fix 1t and was followed by Mir. Cash, who inadvertently struck a match, lgnltng the escaping gas and the explosion followed. Mir. Bennett was quite badly burned, while Mr.. Cash escaped without being injured to any great extent. Only small damage was done to the hotel.
 The owners of the hotel immediately decided that such dangerous appar- atus for furnishing light to the building would better be out of commission for good and ordered the hotel wired for electricity. Being an emergency case the Hoton Power company put every available man to work on the job and In the remarkable short time of less than forty eight hours the building twas completely wired and the electric lights turned on.
 This makes the second acetylene gas explosion which has occurred in Brawley, the other one happening in the store formerly known as Heard's department store, at which time one of the Eckart boys was quite badly ln- jured.
