HEAVY LOSS AT CAMDEN.
Three Buildings Demolished and
Costly Fire Follows Severe
Explosion

Camden, Dec. 2.-Camden sustain
ed quite a sensation as well as a
disaster shortly before 8 o'clock to-
night when an explosion occurred IN
the Office Of the Southern Express
Company, demolishing the express
office, the buildings on either side,
burying two men in the wreekage,
shaking the whole town and start
ing a fire which destroyed the ex-
press Office and the two other build
ings wrecked and several other
stores. The property loss is estimated
tonight at 100000.
The cause was a great mystery to
every one, but the most reasonable
solution given is that there was a
piece Of presto carbon in the Office,
which had been ordered from Colum-
bia for use on an automobile. This
article was only about one foot long
and about FIVE inches in diameter. The
explosion was so great that it com
pletely wrecked the express office
and also the adjoining buildings on
either side. The express agent and
his help had finished their work and
had closed up only few minutes
before. Next south Of. the express
Office vas the green grocery Of Wat
kins Brothers. Mr.. A. L. Watkins
and Mr.. A. G. Whitaker were rescued
bv Mr.. J. H. Clark from the wreck,
badly hurt. The extent OF their IN
iuries is not known, but it is feared
they are seriously hurt. Immediate
" after the explosion fire broke out,
and while the fremen made heroic
efforts to subdue the flames, they
spread so rapidly that at least $780,
600 worth Of property was destroyed
by the fire.
The following buildings were con-
sumed:
The Southern Express Company's
office. with all Of its contents; Was-
kins Brothers, store, and It's con-
lhents, including books and accounts,
I&d what money they had in the
Store; the Baruch-Nettles Mercantile

God. The vain endeavors Of mis-
guided and bigotted churchwomen and
deacons to separate the girl and the
young minister, the eager self-sacri-
fee of tho little circus rider when
she realizes that the clergyman's ca
reer may be imperiled by her love,
and tho final happy ending Of the
st bry after the stress, combine to
make a play that has brought tears,
laughter and sheer JOY to hundreds
of thousands Of delighted theatrego-
