Mandaly" and you couldn't help
enjoying his rendition of this
quaint East Indian brogue.
The banquet served after the

The tables were loaded with every
delicacy and sumptuous edible the
market affords and-well you
should have been there.
The Bachelors Club held one
of the most successful mssque balls

EXPLOSION Of GASO-

Frank HighIey, Timer, Was
Badly Injured.
SIGHT is NOT IMPAIRED.

Cambridge City, Ind, Aug. 22.-
Frank Highley timer, was severely
burned about the face and hands, yes
terday afternoon while examining an
empty gasoline tank, in which gas
had accumulated, with torch. The
gas ignited and the explosion which
followed burst the top of the can,
striking Mr.. Highiey full in the face
and knocking him backward a dis
tance of ten feet, where his head
struck against a wooden box support
ing an anvil. The force of the ex-
plosion drove the heavy gasoline torch
against his forehead, causing a pain
full wound. Although his face was
badly scorched, the physician stated
that his sight is not impaired and un-
der proper care will be able to re-
sumo his duties in a few days.

Town wednesday night and poor rail-
road management was freely pronoun
ced as the underlying cause.
/ Doctors Were Hurried.
The only time the railroad official!
showed any concern over the accident
was when they rushed a corps of doc
tors to the scene and brought the in
jured back TO Richmond on the spec
ial. They were taken TO their homes
and some of the injured We're taken
to Reid MemoEai hospital Both the
city and undertakers' ambulances
were called into service to aid the
injured men to their homes and hospf
tai when they arrived here. The in
jured were constantly accompanied by
physicians. The remains of Roscoe e
Freebern, were taken to Downing's
morgue on north Eighth street. The
Bradford, O.. and Logansport wreck
ing crews worked the greater part OF
today in removing the wreckage
Much of it was burned
Freeburn Well Known.
Roscoe E. Freebern, the dead man.
is a brother-in-law to f. NJ. Haas, sec
has made Richmond his residence for
about a year and is particularly well
known as a street car motorman. He
had been in the railroad business but
four months. Freeburn is of a prom
inent family in Illinois. His wife is a
daughter of William Condo of East
Germantown.
When apprised of her husband s
sudden death Wednesday night Mrs.
Freebern became frantic and suffered
complete nervous collapse. She is
much recovered now, however.
There was a strange feature about
the death of Freebern. While the
wrecking train was standing on the
siding at Millville, Freebern began
counting his money while sitting
among his friends. They jokingly re-
marked that if he were killed between
that point and Richmond they intend
ed taking his money. Freeburn smil-
ed and said that if he should get kill
ed they could have his money, and
that he had no fear of such.
Many or the Scene.
Many Richmond people went to
Hagerstown Wednesday night to
view the wreck. The report which
rapidly spread in this city that there
had been several killed. drew many
to the little northern city.
A large number of Hagerstown men
spent the greater part of the night
on the scene of the wreck. Some of
them remained during the entire
night. The Richmond division Off
cials armed with nothing more than
small railroad lanterns kept vigi-
liant watch until morning.
