All night long parties of the town people
roamed through the streets out Of fear Of
returning to their homes.
Four persons in all were injured by the
explosion. Antonio Mardalk, a powder
Waterman. was hit by a splinter of wood
and bruised about the head. Victoria Mall
bertt, twenty-four years old; Giuseppe NAL
berti, seventeen years, and PHILIPPINE NAL
berti. seven years, were in their home below
a candy shop kept by Mrs. Marcheli, about
two hundred feet from the scene of the
explosion. They were injured by pictures
and other, articles which fell on them from
the walls All were attended by DIR. Wells
chefd, physician for the Bradley, and taken
to the North Hudson Hospital The fact
that the dynamite was stored in an isolated
spot accounts for the few injuries among
the workmen

gave party to some Of his friends on
Saturday night in a tavern he keeps at
Hackensack plank road and Bergenline ave-
nue.. The guests were about to sit down to
a supper when the explosion resounded.
They were cut by the dishes, which flew
from the table. Groth, who was standing
near window, was caught in shower of
glass. He was badly cut about the face
and hands. The party broke up immedi-
ately, the guests hurrying home to see
what had happened there.

four shots through the window, and just
missed hitting a family opposite that was
making hurried exit from their home.

CANNOT RAISE $4,000.
Work Of Harvard Observatory is
Greatly Restricted.


BOSTON, March Ain his annual report
as director Of Harvard College observatory
Prof. E. c. Pickering declares that the
year has been one of disappointment, finan-
cially.
THE management Of the last thirty
years." he says. has brought the observa-
tory into the condition in which, by ex-
penditure of a reasonable sum, a very
large scientific output could be secured.
Accordingly, the visiting committee Of the
observatory attempted to raise $4,000.
which would have provided a freproof
building for the library. published a large
amount Of the material now ready for
printing, and enabled a suitable study of
the collection of astronomical photographs
to be carried on for several years. I'm
fortunately, this attempt failed, the SUBJ
scrfptfOns being made on condition that
the whole was secured, and amounting to
less than one-third of the entire sum.
mo provision has yet been made by
which aid can be rendered to a man of any
other country, the particular man., who
displays unusual skill in a special depart
ment Of astronomy. The small fund avail
able here for International research has
proved exceptionally useful, and it's in
crease is greatly to be desired. A man of
real genius often has plans of the greatest
Importance, which he is obliged to abandon
for want Of few hundred dollars. A very
good example Of cooperation to mutual ad-
vantage is a plan now being carried out by
which the excellent astronomical work of
the Rev. ]. H. Metcalf has been materially
increased

CHOATE ON FUTURE AMERICAN.
Will Not Be Native, but Composite
Of Many Strains.

NEW YORK. March 4.-Ex-Ambassador
Joseph HI. Choate gave his view Of the
American of the future at the twentieth
annual meeting of the University Settle
ment Society. held Saturday afternoon in
the Settlement building 1874 Eldridge street.
The American Of the future, according to
Mr.. Choate, WIN be composed of all the
strains now pouring into the country.
I'VE are getting foreigners by the mil
lions," he said. 81 believe that they come
here at the rate of million a year. To
develop the American-to-be out of the for
eigner who comes here Is, 1 believe one
of the objects Of this society.
1.-THE best work that this settlement can
do Is to promote among these new arrivals
American ideals of citizenship. / hope>the
American flag is kept waving on this settle
ment building. That is something that the
emigrant. say from Bohemia. can under
stand. When he sees 1t he knows what it
means.
"The American of the future is going to
be made up Of all the strains of the for
eigners who are now arriving in this coun-
try. The political power will not be in
the hands of the native-born. Native
American will not be a popular term. II
we can bring the new arrival into contact
with the developed American We do an Inn
portant work.

WANT BLUE LAWS ENFORCED.
York Ministers Begin Systematic
Pulpit Crusade.

YORK, Pa, March 4.-From almost every
pulpit in this city yesterday local clergymen
advocated the enforcement of the blue law
of 1874 pertaining to Sabbath observance.
1t was the beginning of an active campaign
by the ministers Of this city to have Sun
day rigidly kept. Some of the preachers
desire to have all eating houses, cigar
stores and other places of business closed.
and also to have discontinued the sale of
newspapers on the streets.
A committee representing the York Min
isterial Association called on Mayor Mccall
recently and urged him to enforce the blue
laws of 1884 This request, however, the
mayor refused to comply with, on the
since the act of 1894 does not apply to
cities of this class. The ministers there
upon decided to keep up the fight from the
pulpits.

IS OVERCOME BY COAL GAS.
Drafts Of Furnace Had Been Closed
and Two Persons May Die.

SMITHFIELD, R. l., March 4-Twenty
men and five women were overcome by coal
gas in a boarding house connected with the
Bernon cotton mills, In the village Of Georg-
iaville, yesterday, and, while nearly all were
eventually rescued, it is feared that in
two instances fatal results may follow.
The most critical case is that Of John
Dolan, who was employed in Georgiaville
by the Providence Ice Company. He rail-
lied slightly during the day, but last night
he again became unconscious.
Otis Patt, the proprietor of the boarding
house, and his wife were also rendered I'M
conscious by the fumes, and owing to the
fact that Mr.. Patt is nearly seventy-eight
years old, it is feared that he may die.
1t is said that a large quantity of coal was
put on the fire and all drafts were closed.
Michael Beenville, one Of the dodgers,
upon awakening yesterday morning found
that all the other occupants of the house
were unconscious.

Hard Coal Prices to Rise.

TAMAQUA, Pa, March 4.-Notice has
been given by the anthracite community of
interests to the independent producers that
there will be an increase in the price of
coal to the consumers within a short time.
The opinion prevails that the advance will
come about April 1.
Coal companies contend that the cost of
mining has increased greatly in the last
ten years, and that at present prices 1t is
impossible for the companies to realize a
fair return on their money. In most places,
they assert, the coal now lies very deep,
and is exceedingly expensive to mine.
The cost to keep the mines free Of water
is also said to be enormous, while wear
and tear on machinery, it is asserted, In
creased 100 per cent over what 1t was
decade ago.

dropped several feet below the floor when
she returned. Miss Peterman lay down
on the floor to reach the controller and
run the lift back to the floor level. In do
ing so she turned the lever the wrong way
and the car descended crushing her head.

Much Destruction.

The shock proved to be more than an
ordinary discharge to the residents of
the townships scattered over the neigh
boring hills. Many of these were awakened
from their sleep by a trembling of the
earth, followed by a terrific crash. They
CROPPED blindly about for lights and then
stood back aghast at the destruction, Shut
tiers, window panes and sashes were miss
ing, and the cold wind poured into the
rooms. On the floors lay pictures bric-a-
brac and other trinkets. With the horrors
of recent earthquakes fresh in their minds
they rushed from their homes to the streets.
