| The accident was a very peculiar
one, as Mrs. Wood and Mrs. Mccoy
had both been using every care to
prevent any trouble while using the

, fire in the laundry room, where they
were working, friction causing the
explosion.
When the fire broke out, Mrs.
Wood was engaged in rubbing the
gasoline soaked cloth briskly. Sud-
denly, and without warning, she
found the pan of gasoline ablaze,
with herself almost completely en-
veloped in the hot flames. Calling

that manner the fire was quickly
communicated to the pile of slabs,

to cause a very dense smoke.
When the fire department. arrived
on the scene, the beautiful home was
filed with smoke. This made4it OK
ceedingly difficult to reach the flames
which had by this time reached the
clothes chute and were rapidly max.
ing their way into the upper floors.
Going between the walls where it
was almost impossible to reach
the fire for a time baffled the efforts
of the firemen to extinguish it, but
they finally succeeded. .%..
The greatest damage was done in
the laundry room, which was com
pletely Quilted. The walls and CELL
ing were burned and the several
pieces Of laundry equipment were
practically destroyed. The entire
basement was flooded by the water
the firemen poured on the flames.
On the first floor the damage was
confined to the kitchen. In several
places on this floor the walls had
been injured through the efforts of
the firemen to locate the flames.
In the bath room and one bed
room on the second floor, the flames
were very Rot, mot only doing dam

been placed in the linen closet, and

CaStIeton People Didn't Think
Explosion Meant Anything
THEIR P0ST0FFICE LOOTED
Ye9gmen Got Away This Morning with
$500 in Money and Quantity Of
Stamps-Their Methods
Familiar.

oastleton, July 6.--The Castleton post
Office, located at the corner Of Main and
Elm streets, was robbed early this morn
OF 5000 in money and quantity Of
stamps, the exact amount not being
known at present. The robbery was
probably done by the same gang Of
yeggmen which has been working in
this vicinity for several weeks, as the
methods were similar.
In the first place the burglars went
to the blacksmith shop Of George Coats,
getting in by breaking window. There
they stole 2 heavy sledge-nnmmer and
chisel. With these they rorced their
way into the post Office and dynamited
the safe. It is probable that the robbery
took place between ] $50 and o'clock,
because the residents in that vicinity
heard an explosion at about that time,
although apparently no effort was made
TO locate the cause Of the explosion.
The first information thar yeggmen
had been about was received when peo-
pie passing BY the post Office noticed
that everything was not right, and they
notified Postmaster r. G. Ransom. That
was at $3.50 o'clock this morning POST
master Ransom investigated and found
that the place had been looted Not
much damage was done beyond the
smashing of the safe. The post Office
has been located in its present quarters
only a short time.

.L0NDON'S OPINION OF
JEFFRIES- JOHNSON FIGHT
The Globe, Usually Anti-American,
Speaks In No Uncertain Terms Of
the Situation--Sympathy With
Blacks.

London, July 6.--While depIoring the
American race riots following the fight,
London papers unexpectedly offered ex-
cuses for the disorders. The usually
anti-Americau Globe, referring to the
attempt to lynch negro in New York
says: Really our sympathy runs more
to the men with the rope than to the
blatant blacks. It is against human
nature to expect you white men to ac-
cept a negro's insolent assertions, that
Johnson's victory established the SUI
periority Of the blacks, without instant
protest. The Reno contest was one Of
the most iniudicious ever permitted aud
its racial effects win continue for years
The Americans are trustees Of the pre-
dominance OF the whites over the blacks.
and we believe they are true to their
trust Other papers follow in nearly
the same vein.

Another He Thought Was His

Henry Hamel Of Graniteville, the man
who was arrested Sunday afternoon On
the charge Of stealing d team belonging
to Allen Mcclellan of granitevilIe and
which the latter had hitched beside the
road on Brooklyn street, was given q
hearing in city court this morning. and
at the close was discharged BY Judge
Scott. III disehargin9 the witness, Judge
Scott said that after hearing the testi-
mony Of the half-dozen witnesses there
was no doubt in his mind but that the
respondent ought TO have been arrested
on the charge Of intoxication, instead Of
horse stealing, as there was no evidence
tending to show that the man had any
intent to steal the horse
The witnesses testified that Hamel mad
hired two different teams from John
sons stable in Graniteville on Sunday.
The first team he came to Barre with
and drove it back. In the afternoon he
hired another team to come to the city
again. A companion came down with
him and drove onto Brooklyn street and
left HameI there and tnen drove the
team back to the stable in Graniteville.
The testimony brought out that Hamel
had been drinking some during the day
and, ia fact, when be was arrested By
Chief Sinclair he had three pints Of
whiskey in his pockets Hamel won't
into a house on Brooklyn street. and
when lie came out saw McClelan's team
there beside tile road and he unhitehed
ii and drove it to Jones & McMillan's
stable and ordered it taken care Of. and
he told the man at the stable not to let
have the team but himself and
that he would be back aTter it later,
Wnen be came for the team, Chief
Sinclair and Mcclellan were waiting for
him. Hamel still claimed that the horse
was one he had hired at the stable in
and wanted to know why
Mcclellan was trying to claim It. The
defense claimed that il his intoxicated
condition Hamel had taken the team
on Brooklyn street for the one ne had
driven down by having in his befuddled
condition forgotten that he had sent the
team back home.
The case was prosecuted BY States
Attorney Gates, and T. r. Davis was
counsel for Hame.
