Boiler Blown
Through Roof
Oscar Funk Badly Scalded al
Malta Bend.

Five minutes before six Sunday
evening the citizens OF Malta
Bend and ne,ghborhood were
startled by loud report caused by
the blowing up of a boiler at the
ice plant. Fortunately the pace
was nearly deserted at the time.
The boiler was known as n
heater and was situated on the
north side OF the building near
the centre and near the partition
wall shown broken down in the
picture, on tn T. other side of
which the large boilers are locat-
ed. The break occurred on the
under side OF the boiler AMI the
force Of the explosion was down
ward which threw the boiler up
ward through the roof. One Of
the employees informed us that
the boiler went up nearly to the
top of the tall smokcstack. 1t fell
back into the same hole in the
roof nearly and was kept up by
the partition wall, although ii
was nearly torn away.
| On the roof over the bo Ter was
an escape valve and it Is suppos-
ed this valve failed to work, cau>
ing the accident. The boiler had
not been used for several days
and tie valve hal prob3b be.

This valve weighing about fifty
pounds must have been thrown

WOMAN KILLED
HER ANNOYER

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Jan "a
(SpeciaD-"Th unwritten law" was
swiftly invoked yesterday by Mrs
Mary Panacria to avenge an alleged
insult The woman waited at the
corner of Fourth and South streets
until Benjamin Mendelovitch, the
marked victim, appeared and then
shot him
,,On Monday night the woman asked
her husband to kill the man. He beg
ged her to be calm, promising to
report Mendelovitch's actions to the
police in the morning
Following her arrest Mrs. Pancaria
told the police that while she was
going to her place of employment, a
tailoring establishment, early on Mon
day morning, Mendeloyitch stopped
her and attempted to throw his arms
about her neck at the same time eX-
pressing affection She repulsed him.
Yesterday, after her husband had
refused to kill the man, she stole his
revolver, and secreted it under her
coat. Mendelovitch arrived at the
corner several minutes later than Mrs.
Pancaria~ She says he renewed his
unWelcOme attentions, and as she
drew the revolver he turned and ran
across South street. She fired two
bullets, which missed, but the third
entered his back below the heart
Magistrate Fealy took a statement
from Mendelovitch, in which the
latter said he had never seen Mrs.
Panacria until she aimed the revolver
at him. He says he slipped upon
banana peel and clutched the woman's
skirt as he was falling

CRITICIZES .RAGTIME
MUSIC IN CHURCHES

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-(SpeciaD-
That much of the present day church
music has been deteriorated
until it is disgrace is
the opinion of Prof. Tall Esen
Morgan, choir leader at the Baptist
Temple, Brooklyn, expressed before
a Methodist ministers meeting yes
terday.
Prof. Morgan made a plea for bet
ter music and surprised the clergy
men by declaring that too often in
Evangelical churches the music, sup
posed to be sacred is of a 'rag-time
variety and the words set to the music
dOggerel." He said:
The music has deteriorated and re-
trograded and has lost its inspiring
influence in many churches. Many
of the old so-called hymns are a
disgrace to the church and to music.
You wouldn't approach the Mayor
of this city with a two-step, rag-time
measure of jingles. That's what
much of the church music is cOmpOs-
ed of"
Professor Morgan illustrated his
remarks by playing several airs on the
organ.

Here are the results of some actual
Investigations made by the Wo

paign for clean grocery stores:
q asked the grocer whose custom
ers could not afford to buy package
goods how he sold the best grade Of
rice in his stock He weighed out
pound of large, plump grained rice
at sixteen cents. | duplicated that
pound at another store in a dust-proof
germ-proof package at fifteen cents.
He did have both the bulk and
package oatmeal. ! bought a pound
of bulk at five cents, and a two
pound package of a recognized brand
at ten cents. On reaching home
weighed both. The bulk, poured into
the scales, weighed an ounce less
than a pound. The package weighed
exactly two pounds when poured out
of the carton. The honest grocer
handles package goods that weigh
as much as advertised without the
carton, understood
