CAUGHT IN GAS GENERATOR.
Herndon Men Imprisoned for Hours
by Accident
Special Correspondence of The Star.

Special Correspondence of The Star
HERNDON, Va. November %, 1907.
While inspecting the plant of the Hern-
don Acetylene Gas Company yesterday
afternoon, DIR. E. l.. Kobey, DR.. E. l..
Detwler members of the company, and
DIR. H. B. Hutchinson were accidentally
ator house. The building, which is con-
structed with very heavy cement walls, is
provided with large and heavy oak door
fastened on the outside by means of an
iron hasp and a paddock. and small win
dows placed high UP in the walls.
After the three gentlemen entered the
generator room. the outer door was closed
with such force as to cause the hasp to
fall into place and thus so securely lock
1t that it could not possibly be opened by
those on the inside.
AS the building is in an out-of-the-
location, the prisoners were unable to al
tract the attention of persons in the bust
ness part of the town, though united effort
was made to do so by loud calls and
frantically pounding ON the door with
heavy timbers found in the room. At
tempts to escape by means of the windows
or through the large gas main which
enters the building were also found to be
impossible. the three men each being much
larger than any opening in the house,
with the exception of the very large door.
In a short time the gas also became
oppressive. and those in the room were
becoming exhausted when late in the
evening, their position was discovered by
a mere chance by man passing nearby
who thought he heard a faint sound inside
the house. After being released the
victims of the accident were revived by
the fresh air and medical assistance was
not found to be necessary.

taxed by disease of the heart. She is
survived by her husband George Schlos-
ser, and octosenarian. by four sons, two

AS an evidence of the progress made in
ocean travel since Mrs. Schlosser and her
sister came from Germany more than half
a century ago. she was accustomed to tell

striking contrast with the new record of
four DAYS across the Atlantic.
The funeral arrangements have not been

Diamonds

Are always good investment and par
ticularly so now when prices are going
up so steadily. Our system of import
ing diamonds direct from the cutters
at Amsterdam enables US to quote the
very lowest prices that can be made.
Our diamond settlers. too, are experts,

mounting, as the beauty of gems is
considerably enhanced by artistic set
