POWDER MAGAZINE ExPLoDEs,
Monday Morning, on Proving Grounds,
Sandy Hook-No Casualties.

New York, Feb. IA powder mag
azine on the governments proving
ground at Fort Hancock. Sandy Hook,
exploded, early today, with report
that was heard for 10 miles. The mag
azine was set off by flying sparks
from the embers of a small fire which
started two hours before in a fuse
storage house nearby. Five hundred
soldiers from the garrison. who had
been called out to fight the flames,
were within few rods of the struc-
ture when it's roof shot skyward. and
for time it was believed that scores
of lives had been lost officers declar-
ed later, however, that so far as could
be ascertained, no one was harmed by
the terrific blast. This miraculous es-
cape was due mostly to the facial
most unbelievable-that only a small
part of the stored powder ignited. The
bulk of the ammunition was simply
blown skyward and scattered about
tire vicinity UNEMPLOYED. Experts de-
elared that had this been set off. few
of the soldiers around the building
would have escaped. 80
Men who volunteered for the task,
returned to fight the fire after the ex-
plosion. They labored for more than
an hour before the flames were under
control

Fire in a bedroom in the No. Lock-

Monday, caused loss of $1,000, esti-

by water, as the firemen were unable

to the dense smoke, and had to use
liberal amounts of water. Thirteen

the fire is a mystery; some think it
caught in closet, and others suggest
that it might have arisen from a small
air tight stove. 1t occurred just after

Lincoln Day Observed by
S. of V. in the Schools.

Garfield Camp, S. of v, observed
Lincoln day for the first time, in lieu
of the Grand Army, Monday night, in
G.. y. r. hall, with a camp fire. which
was attended by members of the G..
A. r. and allied women's organiza-
tions. There We're several speakers, in
Guiding Rev. e. G. Whittemore. Capt.
Silas Adams and Mrs. Alfredo f..
Clement, who read a paper on the
early life of the martyred President,
Prayer was offered by Rev. Mir. Me-
Neil of Winslow.
Rev. Mr.. Whittemore summed up
the characteristics of the President
and dwelt especially upon his noble
conduct during the trying times of
the war, which he endured patiently
He told OF how the British press, from
the serious magazines. down to the
comic uniformly ridiculed his actions
and his cause during the conflict. and
how, after the eowardly stroke of the
assassin had laid him low, Punch
printed that beautiful tribute to the
memory of Lincoln. He told of the let
ter to the Massachusetts, woman who
sacrificed five sons to the cause of the
republic, and of the simple, vigorous
and manly tone of the letter, written
during the time Of stress, which was
a token of his eminent qualities OF
manhood. When Lincoln at the sue
cessful close of the war, heard the
Kisses turn to cheers, he received them
with an equal equanimity, but was
fate1 not long TO endure good fortune.
slain at the height of his powers by a
murderer whose crime was fouler than
that of Cain.
The American people are prone to
fckleness in their choice of. national
heroes, said Mr.. Whittemore. The time
was when nothing that the nation
could do for Admiral Dewey Was too
much; but later, the enthusiasm COM
menced to wane. and now he is not the
idol of the country by far. Then there
was a doughty colonel in Spanish War
times who later rose to the position of
Chief Magistrate, and who met with
tremendous personal popularity: now
there is a divided opinion about him.
But Lincoln's fame is not like any of
these; it is firm and solid-it shall live
as long as the United States exists.
Comrade Emery was called upon
and told of seeing Lincoln when Mr..
Emery marched through the Capitol.
He was unable to shake hands with
the President, being under arms, but
will never forget the sight of Father
Abraham, as he was affectionately
called by hundreds of thousands. Har-
