REBELS BLOW Up
JUAREz BARRACKS
Powerful Explosion Wrecks Struc-
lures and Two Insurrectos Are
Captured.

Juarez, Mexico, March 16.-An at
tempt was made last Night tc blow up
the barracks at Juarez.
Two heavy charges OF Ditrogylcer-
ipe were exploded, tearing out parts
of the heavy buildings occupied by
the Mexican troops.
Two of a small band CT insurrectos
who secretly entered town were
welnued and captured.
A number of Mexican cavalrymen
were injured.
The shock of the explosion was felt
Throughout Juarex, and immed lately a
cry was ra sed that the insurrectos
had surrounded the place in great
numbers and were attacking.
Merchants left their stores and
crowds prepared to fee to the
American side. Extra guards were
placed about the quarters of Col
Tamborel and Of Gen. Navarro.
The attacked barracks are occupied
by the Fourteenth Mexican cavalry
and are in the heart of the town.
There has been general feeling that
the insurrectos were trying to sur.
round the city.
A small band of insurrectos is sup.
posed to have crept into the town
along the railroad tracks. After plac-
ing the explosive they attempted to
get away Soldiers on the lookout on
top of the barracks opened fire, bring
ing down two CT the insurrectos. The
rest escaped into the country.

placed around the barracks, and nc

of the damage was given out. 1t could
be seen from adjacent streets. how

Wounded Carried Away.
The wounded insurrectos were car
ried away by soldiers. A report that
several Mexican soldiers were injured
resulted from the general confusion
Mexican officers denied that any one
had been killed. They would say moth

ELECTRIC LIGHT WIRE
KILLED A HORSE
Mics shzrpiess Makes Narrow Escape
From Death When Her Horse Was
Killed on Winchester Avenue.
From The World OF Thursday.

From The World OF Thursday.
This paper told yesterday evening of
enc effect of the violent wind storm
that struck this city from the west a
few minutes after 4 O'Clock, namely,
the blowing out of part of the brick
front of Mr.. w, NJ. McQuilkins new
laundry building in course of cree
ton on South College street, near
King. But this was not all.
About the time mentioned Miss Or
dra Sharpless, young daughter of Mr..
Eugene Sharpless, superintendent Of
the Standard Lime and Stone Co.,
was driving a stick wagon along Win
chester avenue on the way to her
home some distance further out, and
the gale blew dowa an electric light
wire across the street as she was
passing r. ~ Stewart & Sons ware
house. The heavily charged wire
struck the horse on top of the head
end killed him instantly. Miss Sharp
less was unframed though much
shocked from fright. She made a
very narrow escape even II her feet
were on the board bottom of the bug
gy. A second later and the wire
would have struck her and the
chances are that she would have met
instant death.
This incident affords potent argn.
ment for underground electric wires
| something that will have to come in
Martinsburg some day and the sooner
| the better.
