GAS EXPLOSION
NARROWLY AvERTEO
Jani4or Reed Overcome in
Heroic Stunt
Gas Pipe at Wesley Church Leaks and
Janitor Is Overcome Reaching Stove
to Turn Out Services in Pro-
gress at the Time.

Although very few of those In the
congregation at Wesley NJ EI church
Sunday morning were aware of the
fact, a gas explosion which might
have materially damaged the edifice
was narrowly averted. But for the
hasty acton of Janitor j. M. Reed,
who was overcome by the gas while
attempting to turn out the fire, much
damage would have been done and
the members of the congregation
would have been endangered.
In one of the smaller roms a small
stove, which had been lighted for
the first time this season, was burn
ing and II appears that he pipe con-
Meeting with the stove did not 1T
tightly with the result that much gas
escaped. The odor OF the gas called
Mr.. Reed to the scene, and in an at
tempt to turn out the fire he was
partially overcome. The room was
filled with the gas and IL is a mys-
terry that an explosion did not oc-
cur. Mr.. Reed was unable to look
after his duties during the remainder
of the day and was removed to his
home wheer he was revived. That an
explosion did not occur is thought
to be due TO the fact that the stove
was more nearly closed than is COM
mon with gas heaters.

marks Mr.. Rourke referred to an in
cident at his morning service, while
he was preaching along this line.
He had challenged any person to
show reason how that he could pre-
serve his self respect and that of his
family and vote for men who were
lined up in opposition to law en-.
fcrcement. George b. Christian, a
prominent Democrat, arose in his
seat and declared that he voted the
Democratic ticket and still was in fa-
vor of putting every evil temptation
from his grandchildren. Mr.. Chris
tian seemed to feel that the Demo-
cratic party did not stand for any
thing other than law enforcement
and he took issue with the insinua.
tions of the pastor. In his remarks
Sunday afternoon, Rev Mr. Rourke
stated that 1t was not his intention
to asail any party but evil men.
That n fair test OF any principle
cannot be made when the test is ap.
piled by men who are opposed to the
principle was the theme urged by
both speakers.

cue, summoning DR.. Finefrock. who
dressed the wound. No serious re-
suits are anticipated, although the
wound was extremely painful.

are in favor of laxty in law enforce

candidates, he declared that the good
