BUSINESS vs.. RELIGION.

Even at the risk Of boring you. dear
reader, on the subject Of church re-
form We carno, refrain from point
ing out the Inconsistency Of the APP
peal OF Secretary Jordan for funds to
carry on the work o. the deuomina,
tion in Africa and his announcement
that several officials Of the church
are to go abroad this summer t. at
ten6 convention. Perhaps it were
unwise to consider the money these
delegates will spend as being put to Il
better use if it were sent to those hard
pressed African missions, but still We
venture the expression that such Il
course strikes us as being more in
keeping with business. ii not religious
principles.

Explosion Of Gas Cause of the
Accident at Small Cana
dian Town
PEOPLE were BLOWN THIRTY
FEET INTO THE AIR BY FORCE
One Man Was Blown to Top of Coach
Of Train Which Was Standing on the
Track by the Platform at the Time
the Explosion Took Place.

Montreal, Jan. 1.-Twenty-two per-
sons were injured in the explosion
which wrecked the train platform at
Place Vigor station at the east end
OF the city last night. Most of the in
1uries consist of broken legs. Mrs.
Charles Bruneau of Montreal cannot
live. The explosion was caused by
the ignition of an accumulation Of
gas under the long wooden platform
paralleling the station. The midnight
train of the Canadian Pacific for Que.
bee was standing on the tracks adj
Joining the platform and an unusually
large number of holiday travellers
were bidding goodbye to friends,
when suddenly score of them were
hurled into the air as though shot
from giant catapult. Some went
straight up twenty or thirty feet,
others were thrown over the top Of
the train and one man with both legs
broken was found on the roof of one
of the coaches. Rumors of a bomb
outrage quickly spread and an excited
crowd was attracted to the station.
The police reserves had difficulty in
controlling the frenzied people while
the injured were being removed. But
little damage was done to the coaches
of the Quebec train which left the
station twenty minutes late showing
no marks except a few cracks in the
windows.
