pageant thru the heart Of the city. The
great area about the Bank Of England
and the mansion house was filled with
a surging mass Of humanity. When the
heralds had taken their station on the
steps Of the royal exchange and silence
was secured, the proclamation was
read to the multitude, from which rose
thunderous cheers and cries of God
save the king The heralds then pro-
ceeded to the mansion house, where
they were entertained by the lord
mayor, who, according to ancient Gus
tom. first officially proposed the health

AWFUL HAVOC OF BLAST

Ton Killed, Fifty Injured and others
Missing as Result Of Explosion
Which Wrecks Big Ontario Plant
Ball PIaysr1 and Spectators Rush
Into Peril and Lose Lives.
Ottawa, Ont, May 9.-Ten persons
are dead fifty injured and several are
missing as the result Of lire and ex-
plosion near Hull, Ont. last evening
which wrecked the plant of the General
Explosives Company.
When the fire broke out a,crowd from
a nearby baseball field swarmed about
the works and were caught in the ter
rife blast which destroyed the plant.
Hull Is four miles from Ottawa, but
the blast could be heard distinctly
here, its force being so great that plate
glass windows in Ottawa were shat
tered. It is reported that twenty
houses in Hull were also damaged.
Most of those killed We're crushed to
death by huge stones. some Weighing as
much as 200 pounds. which were hurled
thru the air by the awful force of the
explosion. Some Of the dead were badly
mangled, in one case the head Of a boy
being completely severed from his
body.
Warning of the danger came to the
onlookers in two minor explosions soon
after the fire got well under way. A
shower of sparks and fragments of the
wrecked building fell among the spec
tators and there was scurrying out Of
what was considered the danger zone.
Some men in the crowd. aware of the
possibilities of the danger when the
main magazine was reached, pleaded
with the crowd to go still farther back,
and many of them needed the warning.
Others, apparently enjoying the ell
ement Of danger in the spectacle. stood
within 1000 yards of the burning build
ings. They We're kept on the qui vive
detonations which sent showers of
burning brands in all directions.
When the baseball game broke up the
spectators and the players rushed up to
join the crowd at the fire. 1t was then
that the main magazine exploded.
There were two stunning detonations.
Everything within radius of a mile
and half was torn and shattered.
Giant trees were snapped off close to
the earth and barns and dwelling
houses were converted into kindling
wood.
The scene where the crowd from the
ball field stood resembled battlefield.
Headless. armless and legless bodies
were lying about among scores of un-
conscious forms. To the few who re-
tained flicker Of consciousness it ap-
pcared as tho over hundred had been
killed

Staging a Big Show.

The company which comes to De-
Corah Friday night to present "The
Prince of Tonight" will come here
from La Crosse in a special train OF
two baggage cars and two coaches
The uncertainty of making time on
the railroads makes ii more than
probable that they will be little
late in arriving, and on this ac-
count, patrons of the theatre will
rot need to be in their seats before
$50 o'clock. The management OF
the company tell us that they will
give those present a novel diversion
an opportunity to see big show
like this staged. The curtain will
be raised, and it will be sight worth
seeing to see the scenery, the light
ing effects and all the accessories
dumped onto the stage and speedily
put into tangible form; the antics of
fifty chorus girls making up, and all
the intricacies and actions necessary
to put on big show like this. We
imagine that this will be fully as in
teresting to see as the great produc-
ton following it, so that patrons
will get two shows that night for the
price of one.

CATTLE CONDEMNED.
Eleven Head of Full Blood Angus
Cattle Found TO be Infected
With tuberculosis.

The widely advertised sale OF
Angus cattle which took place at the
Pardee feed barn in Waukon last
Wednesday had denouement which
was unexpected, and which has caus-
ed considerable comment in this vi
cinity.
The sale was advertised to be held
by Arnold C Waters, Waukon; Louis
Hirth, Lansing; John Milne Prosper,
Mimi; NJ. C. Willford, Canton, Mimi.
The Iowa law specifies that when
cattle for breeding or dairying pur-
poses are brought into Iowa from
another state they must have clean
bill of health from the proper officers
of the state from which they come
or submit to an examination in this
state. On hearing of the sale We'd
nesday, DR.. P. o. Koto of Des Moines,
State Veterinary, telephoned his local
assistant, DR.. N. N. Crawford, to look
after the matter, and also directed
DR.. Button of Cresco to come here.
The sale was over and some of the
cattle had been removed when DR..
Crawford entered upon the scene,
but he had them brought back and
the herd quarantined. Neither Will
ford nor Milne had any certificates
of health for their cattle, but the
latter gentleman lives on the Iowa
side of the line and his two head
were not subject to the inspection.
DR.. Crawford gave the fifteen head
owned by Mr. Willford the tuberculin
test and in due time ten of the ami
mails gave evidence that they were
afflicted with tuberculosis and one
was held on suspicion, the other four
being returned to the buyers. One
of the animals affected was a COW
that had brought 800 at the sale.
The cattle were full bloods and in
fine condition, and it was hard for
those who saw them to believe there
was anything the matter with them.
1t is quite hardship on the owner
as he virtually loses the cattle. Even
If the Iowa authorities could or
would surrender the cattle to him,
the Minnesota authorities would not
allow them to be brought back into
that state. They were shipped to
Cedar Rapids yesterday where they
will be slaughtered under the super
vision of United States officers and il
the meat is found to be fit for food
it will be sold and the receipts, after
the expenses are deducted, will go to
the GENERALIZATION Journal.

Nothing New in Fayette.

A game warden in Fayette county
is reported to have run in an old
maid for hunting without license.
1t was proven that she has hunted
for a man for thirty-seven years
without a license. She put in plea
that she was willing for license, but
that the county clerk wouldn't issre
one unless she named the party OF
the second part. She named an old
bach of the town, and then the clerk
was so unreasonable that he wanted
the old bach's signature to the appli-
cation. The old bach refused to sign
and called the old maid an old hen.
The court then found the old bach
guilty of using fowl language, the
clerk was found guilty of conspiring
to form a merger; the game warden
was fined ten dollars on complaint
of the old bach for an attempt to en-
snare wild game out of season, then
the old maid had the warden arrest
ed and fined for false Imprisonment,
on the plea that the open season for
old maids to hunt a man continued
throughout the whole year The
clerk then put in claim against the
cid maid for attempt to get goods
under false pretense, as she had
signed her age as twenty-five, and he
also had the old bach arraigned for
breaking the speed ordinance in get
ting away from the court. The old
bach had the warden arrested for
using a decoy and hiding behind q
blind, then the clerk had the old
bach arrested for not stopping and
whistling four hundred feet from a
crossing. The last heard from them
the old bach was still running and
the old maid after him with writ
of habeas corpus, and an information
charging contempt of court. -
