warning the whole turret seemed TO blow out

tions and several of them were blown into the
sea through the great breach caused by the ex-
plosOn.
The spectacle was horrible, the dead and
wounded together with shattered arms and legs
littering the decks. call to quarters was
sounded and as speedily possible the wound
ed were cared for. The gun which exploded
was 7.6 inches bore. of which the cruiser car
ried two Happening so soon after the accident
on the Couronne, the explosion to-day has
caused a sensation in naval circles, and doubt
less will lead to a most rigid investigation.

IATHLETIC CLUB TEAM
RUNS AGAINST SNAG
Norwalk Club Mops Up with Pride of
L. A. A. c., Puts Guernsey on the
Bum and Gives Rooters
a Chill

Evidently the members of the base
hall team of the Los Angeles Athletic
club are good Democrats, as last Sun
dav they went to Norwalk and lost
their ball game by the score of 16 to /.
There was little free silver in evidence,
however and very little yelling by the
club followers who made the trip with
the team. Lou Guernsey was the first
victim of the Norwalk boys, VINO made
him look like novice. They tolerated
Calev for two innings and he retired to
save his prestige. Ray Dunnlgan was
knocked all over the field.
When seen at the club after the
game the members Of the team sud
denly lost that very obligtng faculty,
"meinory." Guernsey was not quite
sure but he believed the score was
about "3 to l." "Oh, yes, we lost, but
1 wasn't pitching all the time" said
Lou.
Il don't remember just what the
score was, but l guess we lost' saio
Raw Dunnigan. "Well, you know, II
we had beaten them this time we could
not get them to play us return match
YOU know" was the suave reply Oh Ca
ley, when asked about the game.
NorWalk made twelve hits and only
two errors, while the formidable oase-
bal; team of the Los Angeles Athletic
club made ten errors and only two hits.
Mason pitched great ball for the NOR
walk aggregation. The team Will play
the Riveras next Sunday, and 1t IS
probable that they will play the san
Bernardino baseball team in the near
future, as the manager of the noun
tain town baseball team was at the
club yesterday looking for Manager
George Adair. He had heard of the
NorWalk game.

FIRECRACKER CAUSES
DISTURBANCE AT CLUB
Practical Jokers Have Heap Lots Fun
with Jack Nest and His Friends
at L. A. A. C. Early In
the Morning

ssWho set off the firecracker in the
upper hall of the Los Angeles Athletic
club about 2 o'clock Monday morning
Who put the firecracker in a tin pall
and set it right by Jack Nests doorY
Who planned the lighting of the hre-
cracker SO that it went off just as
Billy Norton was coming up the stairs
and SO scared that poor boy that ne
went flying back down the stairs ana
into the Office of the club, shouting
.Murderl' at the top of his voice and
nearly soaring poor Bob out of year
growth? Who did 1t, anyway"
The answer to these questions ano
others would be very much appreciat-
ed by Jack Nest, Norton particularly
and Bob, the clerk. That the explosion
occurred is no dream. Lou Guernsey
said it wasn't, and within two minutes
after the noise the hall was filled with
pink toes and pajamas and husky
voices asking who was shot? Il am,
replied Jack Nest, who was found un-
der his bed shaking like leaf. Jack
allowed himself to be persuaded to
come out from under the bed, and
when he found there were no bones
broken concluded that 1t must nave
been some one else who was shot.
It soon was discovered what had
caused the noise, and then everybody
tried to find out who was the culprlt.
Lou Guernsey was the first to offer IN
formation, and volunteered the sugges-
tion that "Walla Wheeler might have
done it," It was noticed by the boys
that Wa1la was the smallest one In
the crowd, so ''nixy." Lou. Waila said
the crowd, so "nixy' Lou. Walla said
soda crackers which he had in his
grip. Jack Routzhan said he didn't
do it, as he was very busy with
game at that particular time and
couldn't have done it if he had wanted
to. Dietrich was innocent, as was
Chauncey Monohan. Suspicion points
to Lou Guernsey-hrst, because he
said he didn't do it; second, because he
was seen in the hall a few minutes be-
fore the explosion, and third, because
he was the only man who did not favor
searching all the rooms to see who had
the remainder of the big firecrackers.
