Ten Men Blown to
Pieces by Explosion

One Thousand Pounds Of Mixture Let
Go While Being Stirred in Big
Crucible.

MARQUETTE. Mich. Feb. Inc one Of
the most. disastrous explosions ever re-
corded in upper Mchiagn, ten men met in
slant death at the plant of the Pluto Pow
der company, in the outskirts Of Ishpe-
ming, yesterday afternoon. One man was
injured.
The bodies Of the dead were blown to

to the ground by the force Of the shock
and was slightly hurt.
One explosion took place in the gelatine
powder house. Every man in this building

posed that the mixture was being stirred
in the big crucible within the house when
the stuff let go.
About 1000 pounds exploded. only
twenty minutes before the disaster 5000
pounds of the explosive had been removed,
otherwise the havoc would have been
much greater. As 1t was, the plant was
little damaged and the shock felt in

THE POWER OF WILL
AND DRUNKENNESS
VIII Power Alone VIII Not Stop the
Excessive Use of Liquor.

VIII Power Alone VIII Not Stop the
Excessive Use of Liquor.
The temperance advocate and totaI
abstainer are strong in their declara-
ton that drunkenness is a mean, low
and disgraceful habit, from which any
ordinary person can free himself by
the exercise of his will power alone.
Medical men. by patient research,
have demonstrated that drunkenness
is a poisoning and that the drunkard
is one in need of medical attention.
The disease of alcoholism can surely
be cured, thanks to the Neal treat
ment, which has demonstrated that it
is an lntallible remedy striking at once
at the roots of the trouble. There has
always been a, demand for the treat
ment for habttual drunkenness which
can be administered internally, with
out the use Of dangerous hypodermic
injections. ss
Experience has taught that no treat
ment other than the Neal Cure has
ever been successful in treating drunk
enness in less than four weeks time.
1t makes no difference how long a
man has been drinking, how much or
how little he drinks. or what he drinks,
the Neal treatment has never failed
to cure in three days time, and with
out the use of that devllish little tor
mentor of the flesh, the hypodermic
syringe. Just bear in mind that there
is no such thing as secret cure" for
drunkenness, and you are taking great
risk in administering these remedies.
