TWO DYING AFTER EXPLOSION
Des Moines, Ia, Dec. 26.-After
Santa Claus had left the home of
Mrs. Sophronia Johnson, 35, an I'M
known dynamiter climbed into the
window and placing dynamite bomb
under the bed departed, stFinging rs
feet of fuse behind him.
Fifteen minutes later the bomb ex-
ploded blowing off the legs of Mrs.
Johnson and her 11-year-old daugh-
ter, Ophelia. The house was wrecked.
In the hospital today the woman
and child are very near death. The
woman will not talk. The police think
the dynamiting was the work of a
revengeful adimrer.

Rev. w. F.

 The boys in the home are being taught trades and scientific farming and the girls are taught the domestic sciences. The boys are now engaged in manufacturing concrete blocks and erecting large concrete building at the home, which, when completed will be worth at least $10,000. It is to maintain and further these move ments that Rev. Doris sends fortl his appeal.

YOUNG GIRLS
Maurice Petersen Gets 8
Months Caught Under Car

On charge of having repeatedly
run after and annoyed young girls
Maurice Petersen, thirty years old
of 322 Kirkland place, was commit
ted to the county Jail for three
months today by Recorder Pickersgill
He was arrested about O'Clock last
night by James McGr-th, Of the Le-
high Valley railroad force of detec-
tives after he had been watched for
an hour early last night. McGrath
and two other detectives testified that
Petersen had been seen repeatedly
seeking the company of girls be-
tween the ages Of twelve and fifteen
years, about freight cars along the
line OF the Lehigh Valley railroad in
this city.
Recorder Pickersgill asked the prl-
soner why his father had SO little re-
gard for him that he would not ap-
pear to bail him out. Petersen re-
piled that he was not on the best OF
terms with the parent and simply
boarded at his home. The court then
extended the alternate to the prisoner
of paying a fine of $25 or going to
jail for three months. The recorder
expressed pleaseur when he found
Petersen could not pay the fine, and
declared a term in Jail would prob
ably do him good.
