Highlandtown. 18th DESTRUCTION Mon
day morning last. at $50 o'clock, a loud explo-
sion was heard and at the same moment thick
volumes of black smoke filled the air around
Canton and vicinity. A large tank Of the Stand
ard Oil Company had exploded and was burning
at terrible rate. The county engine respon-
ded to the alarm and was soon upon the scene.
After it arrived there was another explosion
and a city engine came to assist, with Chief
Emerich in command, and in a short time two
additional city companies were there. At one
time it seemed as if the entire works were
doomed, but by the mighty efforts of the fire.
men the flames were checked and the tank of
benzine. which was not so feet from the burn
ing tank, was once more out of danger. But
this did not continue long as another tank
caught and the firemen had more to contend
with. They were the master of the situation,
however, as they saved the tank of benzine.
Many thousands of people visited the scene
during the fire, both in the morning and even
ing. The loss cannot be fully estimated, but
will reach fully $4,000. Men are at work
clearing up the ruins of the tanks. The fore
man was seriously injured by six inch pipe
hitting him on the head.
Rev. Mr.. Wiley, the celebrated evangelist,
has finished his services at Abbott Memorial

A Practice That Should be Stopped
The postmaster at Lutherville desires to call at.
tention to the practice of some patrons of rural
delivery of placing loose coins in their boxes
each time they desire to dispatch letters, in
stead of supplying themselves with postage in
advance of their needs.
This practice imposes undue hardship on
rural carriers in removing loose coins from
routes
The postmaster, therefore, urgently requests
that patrons of rural delivery provide them
selves and keep on hand supply of stamps
consistent with and in advance of their needs.
in their mail boxes small detachable cups Of
wood or tin in which to place coins, when
necessary, in purchasing supplies of stamps.
