Light Plant Damaged.

Three explosions ofdynamite or nitro
glycerin Monday night in the building
Of The D troit City Gas Company,
now in course of construction, in the
heart of the city, wrecked the two
boilers and the air compressor, shattered
windows in buildings for block around,
and caused damage estimated at So, 900.
Structural iron workers from Chicago
are suspected of the crime, and it is be-
lieyed to be an act of revenge against
the Russell Wheel and Foundry Com
pany, which has the iron contract on
the building, and on this theory the de-
tectives are working. The affair is the
climax to series of small plots to en-
bsrrass the Russell Company by injuring
their equipment.

Retired Miner Assassinated.

Pursued from Italy by relentless
"Black Hand" agents, Antonio Sabeles,
a wealthy retired Italian coal miner, sged
sixty years, was yesterday morning
foully slain at Midland mines, north OF
Washington, Pa, by q member of the
dread Italian society.
Sabelea was forced to hurriedly aban-
don long visit to his native land when
he incurred the enmity of the "Black
Hand" by refusing to be blackmailed.
He arrived at Midland Saturday. On
Monday night while be slept at the home
of his son, Lewis Sabelea, he was over
powered and taken from the building,
carried beneath the coal tipple and struck
down in cold blood. He died in an
hour.
Sabelea's son says that his father since
his return Saturday lived In dread Of
assassination. There is no clew TO bis
murderers.

the Perfection Electric Switch Com
pany, but his success had not been
entirely satisfactory to himself. With
all his quiet force, the superintend-
ent was very human young man.
He had hoped to gain the complete
confidence of the men and women
under him. 1t was respect he wanted
rather than fear.
The lax, easy going regime of the
former superintendent had made that
careless individual very popular with
the factory hands. They had given
him all sorts of presents on his birth
days and at Christmas time. The
day his resignation oh, euphonic
termi-had gone into effect they had
presented him with an ornate watch
charm, and when, red in the face and
embarrassed he had tried to stammer
his thanks, they had cheered him
roundly and pressed about him to
shake his hand. Powell had undoubt-
The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1907-12-19

@-s!Szss results In the output OF the
factory.
Under the now uperintendent the
output was satisfactOry-and more.
The question that continually pre-
sented itself to the young mans trou-
bled mind was whether, in the inter-
ests of the firm he had not been too
harsh with the employees. In eradi-
eating the evils Jim Powell had
wrought he had found 1t necessary
to calculate in cCld-blQOded fashion,
to be ready with blame and chary of
praise, The result was Inevitable.
While the profits grew steadily Craw-
ford realized that It was because Of
his ceaseless vigilance and the firm
ness with which he held the employees
at work.
There were times-when he was
tired, specially-When it seemed to
him that he had merely developed
into a successful slave driver.
Sometimes at o'clock, when the
big gong had sounded, he would sit
by the time-machine and watch the
men file down the stairs. He would
have given much if here and there in
the long line a face had been lifted to
his with a nod or a comprehending
smile, but the hands" rang in their
time in sullen silence. His very pres
ence seemed to chill their spirits, and
when one of them looked at him 1t
was either with bitterness or blank
stare.
Meanwhile the Perfection Electric
Switch Company prospered amazing
ly, and at the same time the superin-
! tendent grew a little more stoop-
! shouldered, little more reserved, a
little more heavy Of eye.
| In November of the third year 1t
happened that "Our Mr.. Crawford
was taken sick. At the time he was
putting forth strenuous efforts to
have an increase OF pay for the en-
ployes, in consequence Of which he
was at the Office several days when
he should have been in bed. He
wanted the hands to understand that
their work had been appreciated, ana
although he had to grind his teeth
to keep from crying out with the
pain he went daily to the office and
argued with the general manager and
/ the members of the firm.
The firm was obdurate. It was de-
| cided finally that, in view of the eX-
! tensive additions that were to be
made to the plant the increase could
not be granted for another year. Sick
at heart and racked with pain the su-
perintendent staggered to his apart
ments in the gray November dusk,
went to bed and sent for a doctor
The physician came, chided the young
man for his carelessness Of his health
and said a slight operation would be
necessary the next day.
The operation was successful, and
the physician assured the anxious
general manager that the patient
would be at the factory in couple OF
weeks. But the physician had no1
reckoned on many things-the weari
ness of mind and body in his patient
the bitterness of his recent failure tt
induce the firm to increase the pay o
the hands, and the dragging load IN
