The new King emerges at the age
of forty-five from the obscurity Of a
quiet. domestic life at Marlborough
House to rule the British Empire,
man practically unknown to his fellow
couhtrymen. No other British Prince
ever ascehded the throne surrounded
by so much mystery All that is
known is that his life has been blame
less and colorless. Whether he will
be able to meet the present crisis is
problem.
George ", the new ruler of the
worlds greatest empire, would rather
command warship or collect postage
stamps than administer the affairs Of
nation. He is to-day undoubtedly
the saddest man in Great Britain. not
only because Of the death of his father
to whom he was deeply and sincerely
devoted, but even more because he
must put behind him his harmless
fads and hobbies to which he was
hitherto devoted and plunge into the
maelstrom of politics, having at the
outset Of his reign the most perplex-
ing and intricate crisis that has ever
menaced an empire.
The Kings death leaves the empire
in a grave political situation. 1t is
believed that the struggle between the
Lords and the Commons will be tenn
porarily abandoned.
Messages of grief and sympathy
have been received from all British
dominions and from foreign nations
which have heard the news of Eng
lands loss.

Fifteen Dead and Fifty injured at
Powder Plant Near Ottawa.
Ottawa, Ont, May 10.-Ffve, tons
of an explosive in magazine explod-
ed at the works of the General Ex-
plosives Company near Hull and at
least fifteen persons were killed and
scores were injured. Many of the
victims had formed part Of crowd at
ball game and persisted in watching
the fire at the works after having
been warned of the peril If the big
magazine exploded.
Everything within radius of
mile and half OF the works was torn
and shattered. Giant trees were snap
ped OF close to the earth. barns and
houses were converted into kindl!ng
wood. Many small houses were
wrecked In Hull and larger buildings,
were damaged. while In Ottawa four
miles away. the Government and other
buildings were shaken and many win
dows were smashed.
The Known Dead.

are:

close to the EARTH barns and dwelling
houses were converted into kindling
wood and even in Ottawa. four miles
from the scene, hundreds of plate
glass windows were shattered to frag-
ments.
The scene where the crowd from
the ball field, stood resembled bat
tlefield. Headless, armless and leg
less bodies were lying about among
scores of unconscious forms. To the
few who retained flicker Of con-
sciousness it appeared as though more
than hundred had killed. The
strange silence which followed the
final death dealing blast was more
terrifying than the cries and moans
which came with return to consci-
BUSINESS of the badly injured.
The Ottawa hospitals are crowded
with injured. and 1t Is almost certain
that some Of these are so paddy hurt
