EXPERTS WILL PROBE
THE TIMES EXPLOSION
Mayor Alexander Appoints Com
mittee of Specialists to Ex-
anime Cause of Disaster

A committee of experts on explosives,
appointed by Mayor Alexander, began
the work of investigating the cause
of the Times explosion early yesterday
afternoon. The committee is composed
of Frank "A. Garbutt, an explosive
expert; William Mulholland, who has
handled explosives very largely in his
many years of engineering work: E,
II. Fosdick, chemist and formerly con-
nected with the California Powder
company; Charles Wellborn, police
commissioner; q. Gushing of the Du-
pont Powder company, Gen. o. j.
Sweet, formerly dynamite expert of the
United States government, and John
Carman.
This committee was instructed to do
everything necessary and spare no
reasonable expense to determine what
caused the explosion. The money to
finance it's operations will be taken
from the $4,000 appropriated by the
council yesterday.
r. H. Manahan, city electrician, was
instructed by the mayor to string
electric light wires so that the work
of excavating the debris could go on
during the night. The mayor said
there had been many offers of help and
teams, and that work would be prose-
.cuted until the bodies were taken from
the ruins and the cause of the ex-
plosion determined.

YOU CAN INTEREST HIM
Any Man Over Fifty

You can interest any man over nifty
years of age in anything that Will
make him feel better, because While
he may not as yet have any positive
organic disease he no longer feels the
buoyancy and vigor of Twenty-Five nor
the freedom from aches and pains he
enjoyed in earlier years, and he very
naturally examines with interest any
proposition looking to the Improvement
and preservation of his health.
He will notice among other things
that the stomach of fifty is a very
different one from the stomach he
possessed at twenty-five. That great
est care must be exercised as to what
is eaten and how much of it, and even
with the best of care there will be in
creasing digestive weakness with ad-
vancing years.
A proposition to perfect or improve
the digestion and assimilation of food
is one which interests not only every
man of fifty but every man, woman
and child of any age, because the whole
secret of good health, good BLOOD
strong nerves, Is to have a stomach
which will promptly and thoroughly
digest wholesome food because blood,
nerves, brain tissue and every other
constituent of the body is entirely the
product of digestion, and no medicine
or "health" food can possibly create
pure blood or restore shaky nerves,
when a weak stomach is replenishing
the daily wear and tear of the body
from a mass of fermenting half-dl-
gested food.
No, the stomach itself wants help
and in no round about way either; 1t
wants direct, unmistakable assistance,
such as is given by one or two Stuart
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal
These tablets cure stomach trouble
because their use gives the stomach a
chance to rest and recuperate; one or
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contains dl-
gestive elements sufficient to digest 5000
grains of ordinary food such as pread'
meat, eggs, etc.
The plan of dieting is simply an
other name for starvation, and the use
of prepared foods and new tangled
breakfast foods simply makes matters
worse, as any dyspeptic who has tried
them knows.
AS DR.. Bennett says, the only reason
can imagine why Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are not universally used by
everybody who is troubled in any way
with poor digestion is because many
people seem to think that because a
medicine is advertised or is sold in
drug stores or is protected by trade
mark must be humbug, whereas as a
matter of truth any druggist who Is
observant knows that Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets have cured more people or
Indigestion heartburn, heart trouble,
nervous prostration and run down con-
dition generally than all the patent
medicines and doctors prescriptions
for stomach trouble combined.
