First sewer Explosion.

Morristown is gradually acquiring
all the things that go with city lie.
The first sewer explosion occurred on
Friday afternoon, when the manhole
cover at the corner of High and Pros
pect streets rose up in the air, AID
either before it started or as it landed
on the earth again was broken. The
covers on High and Prospect streets
and the one at the corner of High
street and Speedwell avenue also rose
short distances. There has been a gas
leak in that vicinity and on Friday az
ternoon an employee of the gas com
pany was searching for it. He drilled
hole on High street and lit the gas
that escapedto see how much he had,
The explosion followed Immediately.
1t is supposed that the three explo-
sions of lesser Importance were from
the back draft of the larger explosion.
Such explosions would be impossible
if the house connections were made,
for the gas would escape through the
vent pipes on the houses.

Y. w. {. A. NOTES.

Prof. Henry S. Jacoby, Of Cornell
University delivered an interesting
and instructive lecture on the Quebec
bridge and the great disaster there in
the Y. M. G. A. Hall on Wednesday
evening. There was an appreciatiVe
audience present, but not as large as
the lecture justified. Prof. Jacoby
showed a number of views of the
larger bridges of cantilever construc-
ton in this country and the great
Firth of Forth bridge, then large
number Of detail views of the Quebec
structure both before and after the
catastrophe.
Some Of the escapes from death of
the men who survived the disaster
were remarkable and the professor de-
clared that while engineers were often
blamed for accidents such as that one,
| yet large share of the blame should
7 be placed to be commercial side of the
IStructures designed and built, and
read statistics showing the far larger
| proportion of people killed and injured
| in the operation of railways, ETC., than
has been the case by the failure or col
| lapse of steel structures.
The LaborIng Man and the Church.
Over hundred men assembled in
the chapel of the First Presbyterian
! Church on Monday evening to listen
to the address by the Rev. W. II. Nor
gan, of Newark, on the Laboring
Man and the Church, = under the aus
pices of the Mems Club Of the church.
The speaker reviewed the objections
| to the church as voiced by the labor
ing man and the conditions which led
up to the distrust, stating that the
United States is the heir to the preju-
dices against the church existing in all
the countries OF the world. Therefore
its problem is the most complex one.
He urged more emphasis of the social
side of Christianity, more knowledge
of what laboring men are trying to do
in the union, ETC., and work with the
union toward bettering conditions, de-
creasing child labor, ameliorating the
conditions of women workers and
striving for shorter hours and better
pay for labor With the economic adj
