The game began by Rockland kicking

through the Bethel line for touchdown
by Rockland's halfback. The second
touchdown by Rockland was made by the

CHICAGO, April 25.-Twelve hum
dred pupils of the Edward Jenner pub
lie school fled panic stricken to the
streets yesterday when D report spread
through the building that three men,
bers of the "black hand" society had
placed a nitroglycerine bomb in the
basement which was timed to go off
at 2 o'clock.
Although twelve teachers in the
twenty-five rooms made every effort to
form fire drill lines and to quiet the
frantic children, they rushed pell nell
down the three flights of stairs, tramp
ling over one another in their frenzy
to get out of the school house. Several
of the smaller children narrowly es-
capped serious injury in the rush for the
doors.
Parents who hurried to the school
house to rescue their children from the
building added to the confusion. 1t
was only through the efforts of the
teachers and the bravery of Engineer
Frank Smith and Janitor Leonard
Moore, who stood at the main en-
frances of the building picking up those
who were knocked down in the rush for
exits, that no one was injured fatally
in the panic.
For four hours after the building had
been cleared of the boys and girls
frightened parents crowded the streets
around the structure awaiting for news
concerning the explosion and threaten

rived in response to call from Prip-

SANTA BARBARA. April 25.-Rear
Admiral Thomas. at present command
ing the Atlantic battleship fleet, re-
ceived a telegram tonight from Rear
Admiral Robley d. Evans, at Paso Ro-
bles Hot Springs, saying that the latter
would return to the fleet and again
hoist his flag on the Connecticut as
commander in chief when the ships
reach Monterey on Thursday evening,
April 30.
Admiral Evans, who is about to re-
sumo the command of the fleet which
he has piloted around the southern ex-
tremity Of South America from Hamp-
ton Roads, is now at Paso RobleS Hot
Springs, where he Is taking treatment
for rheumatic gout.
The admiraPs condition, which had
been steadily growing worse on the
trip around South America, became so
bad after the fleet reached Magdalena
bay that the admiral left Magdalena
on March 80 and was brought to San
Diego aboard his flagship, the Connec-
ticut, and from there was transferred
to special car. which carried him to
Paso Robles Hot Springs, where he
arrived on April g. Since that time the
admiral's condition has been slowly but
surely improving, and the latest re-
ports from the springs are to the effect
that Admiral Evans has been taking
frequent automobile rides, and Is now
able to walk with the aid of a cane.
In view of the fact that to Admiral
Evans belongs the credit for taking the
warships on the most famous cruise
ever undertaken by vessels of modern
navy, it has always been the intention
to have the admiral return to his ships
for few days, so as to tack them into
San Francisco harbor, and to command
them at the time of the review at that
FNlh hxrf fsnR@ 49, kI..
May g.
On April 30, when Admiral Evans
again resumes command, he will have
been away from his fleet for just one
month. He will be in command of the
armada for little more than week, as
he will retire from the navy immedi-
arely after the naval parade on the
8th of May.
