EXPLOSION BREAKS
A BIC PLATE CLASS
Accident Caused by Welding
Mahcine at Totten Auto Co.
No One Injured.

An explosion occurred about 6
o'clock last evening at the Totten
Auto company's garage, breaking in
the plate glass window in the front
of the building. One of the mechan-
les al the place was working on the
welding machine at the time but was
uninjured. 1t is thought that the eX-
plosion was caused by a quantity of
gas forming near the fire in the wclder.
The breaking of the plate glass win
dow was the damage wrought by the
explosion and it is covered by insur-
ance. The welding machine was not
damaged and is in use again today.

ARE LIABLE TO A FINE
Committee of Carriers Wait on Offieiaf
and Ask His Cooperation IN
Stopping Evil.

Distributing agencies Of Rock Island
have been served notice by Police
Commissioner Archie Hart that here
after publicity matter of all kinds plac-
ed in mail boxes over the city will con-
stitute serious offense, according to
a city ordinance on "misdemeanors"
entitled unlawful use of mail boxes"
Mail carriers of the city have pro-
tested to the police commissioner.
Recently committee from the Rock
Island Mail Carriers association wait
ed on Mr. Hart showing the misuse OF

began an investigation. Large amounts
of publicity matter was found in mail
boxes. Carriers at almost every visit
were forced to clear the boxes OF The
circulars. e.
Section 81 of the statute on mis-
demeanors" reads relative to unlaw
full use of mail receptacles, as follows:
THAT it shall be unlawful for any per-
son, firm or corporation to place or
cause to be placed in any private mail
box, used by the letter carriers of said
city as a receptacle in which to de-
