Oh Tanks blow UP; Fire RACES.

SISTERSVILLE, w. Va, Aug. H.
The Riverside OIL Co.'S tanks blew up
this morning with terrific force, and
a great fire Is now raging. The ex-
plcsion occurred Just as an Ohio river
freighter was at work. One of the
brakemen was badly burned and an
other slightly. At o'clock gasoline
drums were exploding like fire crack
ers and there Is grave danger to the
thousands of people who are gathered
amound the fire. A number of houses
are In close proximity TO the fire; also
oil and gas wells and gas tanks.

ditions resulting from the industrial
condition, and whether the philan-

them" said Rev. j. ]. Curran, pastor
Of the Holy Savior church at Wilkes
barre.
Fr. Curran is friend OF Col. Roose-

During his visit col. Roosevelt was
the guest of FIR. Curran, who went
with him on his tour OF Investigation.
"Col. Roosevelt said he thought GER
tainly the coal district was the place
for public baths" said Rev. Curran.
He also said he thought there ought
\ to be Libraries and reading rooms and
community houses where the people
could enjoy some OF the pleasures that
are common to other places
HE was interested In everything
he saw. And he saw everything. He
spoke OF the need for benches for the
girls Of the silk mills, who have now
to stand at their work. When he
came out or the coal breaker we visit
ed, be said he didn't see how anybody
could live In that cloud Of coal dust. "
On the trip almost every mining
community OF the valley was visited.
And everywhere the one big thing
that stands out above. everything else
Is that the mine town Is different from
every other place on the earth.
There Is the mine and the breaker,
the general store and the saloon. The

He was staggering out to the back

Dziuba invited the man to come

In his haste to leave, he forgot his hat
