EXPLOSION AT TOPEKA.

Fifty pounds Of powder exploded in
the powder warmer, $50 feet from the
Topeka shaft house Friday afternoon
of last week and wrecked every win
dow in the west and north side OF
the shaft building and broke the
glass in the north and east windows
of the Russell Gulch school house.
There was 100 pounds of powder in
the warmer, but only half Of it ex-
ploded. The other half was scatter
ed over the dump.
The cause Of the explosion, OF
course, is not known. In the warmer
there was steam coil made Of gas
pipe. Over this was a shelf and the
powder was on this shelf. 1t is
thought that the high wind may have
Jared a stick or two OF the powder
off the shelf and it fell on the coils,
causing the explosion. The powder
warmer was a wooden structure, 6xs
feet in dimensions. This was literal
ly blown to splinters.
The magazine is located 25 feet
from where the powder warmer
stood. This contained 600 pounds oi
gelatine powder. The magazine was
damaged but the powder didn't ex
plode. The noise Of Fridays explo
sion was heard distinctly in Central

FINDS A BIBLE.

A peculiar find was made a few
days ago by H. E. Horn, who is look
ing after the installation Of machin-
cry in the old stone building in low
er Clear creek While checking the
openings between the walls and the
roof with sacks, he discovered a
copy of the new testament. The book
was lying on top Of the wall and with
the exception Of the front and back
covers is in a good state of preserva-
ton. The bible was a gift to some.
one and the presentation was made
in the year 1854. Water has dripped
on the fly leaves and obliterated the
names of the donor and the recipient.
The book must have been placed on
the top Of the wall years ago, when
the building was erected. 1t is
thought that some workman may
have laid it there and forgotten it.
Finding bible in such place is
considered a very good omen by the
parties who are equipping the build
ing with milling machinery, and they
now anticipate most glowing success.
The bible was placed in the keeping
of the editor of this religiously reli-
gious journal and who Is there but
that will admit that the book is very
much in place in the Observer sane
tum?

ALFRED WETTsTEIN DIES.

Alfred Wettstein, a Colorado pio
neer and prominent mining and
milling man Of this city, died Mon.
day morning at O'Clock. The an.
nouncement Of his demise came as a
distinct shock to the residents here
abouts, as it had not been generally
known that he was Ill. Wednesday af.
ternoon, week ago, he became i'll
and took to his bed. His ailmept de-
veloped into pneumonia and relatives
began to realize Saturday and Sun
day that the end was near. He was
conscious most of the time and recog.
nized those about him until short
time before his spirit took its flight.
Alfred Wettstein was born in
Switzerland few months over 62
years ago. He came to America in
1858 and for a time drove OK teams
on the plains. In the early seventies
he located in Gilpin county and with
the exception Of a short time when
he was attracted by the prospects Of
making money in the mines Of Sum-
init county, had been a resident of
this camp since. The fascination Of
mining was resistless with him and
to prospect for new finds was the
heighth of his ambition, although in
late years he had devoted his atten-
tion mainly to deep mining. His
mine holdings were extensive and
among them were some very valuable
properties. His interests mainly were
in the Yankee Hill and Miners gulch
sections. At the time of his death he
was looking after the interests of the
Gunnell company.
Alfred Wettstein was a scholar and
an Interesting parsonage. He was
educated in some of the best colleges
of Europe, studying in France, Italy
and Spain. He had a wonderful mem
ory and his brain was a storehouse of
knowledge. On historical subjects he
was an authority and his varied and
extensive reading made him an en-
life 1t was his intention to become a
lawyer, but before completing his edu
cation he abandoned this idea. He
had Travelled to various parts of the
globe and in his travelling learned
four different languages, each Of
which he spoke with ease and
fluency. He accumulated during his
lifetime a very valuable collection Of
rare coins. These are estimated to be
worth at their intrinsic value around
$4,000. With the premium added their
value is doubled.
Two brothers survive, one ]. Wett-
stein, residing in this city, and
another living in Switzerland. Ser
vices were conducted at the house
yesterday afternoon, the Rev. Mr..
Bergen officiating.
