EXPLOSION KILLS One
Craftsbury Men Experimenting with Car.
bonic Acid-Gas. Terrific Explosion
Wrecks Building. Kills One and
Injuries Another.

While experimenting with the manu-.
facture of carbonic acid-gas in the
shop of Horace Douglass at North
'Craftsbury yesterday afternoon about
clock, a terrific explosion took
place. killing George G. Chasse and
injuring Mr.. Douglass.
For some time past, Mr.. Chase and
Mr. Douglass have been at work on an
invention similar to the acetylene gas.
They had applied for patent on the
new device, the real nature of which
has been kept secret and were making
the final test yesterday afternoon.
From some cause as yet unknown, an
explosion occurred. supposedly when
the chemicals ins the machine were
mixed together.
Chasse was found in corner of the
wrecked shop with one leg broken, and
the other blown entirely off. He died
about two hours afterward, despite
the work of the physicians who were
called. Douglass was severely bruised
and it is feared he is injured
internally. He was removed to his
home in an unconscious condition
where it was announced that hopes of
his recovery were but slight.
The building was wrecked and
surrounding buildings suffered badly
from the awful conclusion. Over 40
windows were broken in Pixies hotel
and the explosion was felt for miles
around, having the effect of slight
earthquake shock. Even in Albany,
parts of Glover and Greensboro the
shock was felt.
Mr.. Chasse was a young man Of
ability who had built up quite sugar
tool industry in Craftsbury and was
the maker of the Chasse evaporator.
His loss will be keenly felt in, Crafts
bury. He is survived by wife and
three children.
