VICTIM OF CRUEL DECEPTION
Fair Seaside Visitor Satisfied She Had Seen Remarkable "Government
 Saiting Apparatus"

They were passing the holiday at Onset and during the course of the sunny afternoon took a stroll on the beach. At one point they came upon an improvised breakwater, where some resident had filled bags with sand and piled them in breastworks fashion to prevent the sea from en- croaehing upon his land during the stormy season.
 One of the young ladies was curious immediately. She would know what the bags were for.
 Why, it's very simple" explained her companion with due gravity. "The water in Onset bay originally was fresh, a peculiarity of nature which has puzzled scientists. It seemed too bad to deprive the place of seashore advantages so the government took the matter in hand, filled the bags with salt and thereby has imparted the proper flavor to Onset water
 Far from rebuking him for being fresh" she is now telling her friends of having seen the government salt ing apparatus" down there.

BOMB WRECKS ROOM
 IN CAPITOL BUILDING
OFFICIALS BELIEVE EXPLOSIVE WAS PLACED BY A CRANK
 WISHING SENSATION.
CLAIMS NO ONE INJURED
Superintendent Woods Examined the Structural Features of Building
 and Found No Damage.

Washington. - A tremendous ex- plosion, believed to have been caused by some kind of bomb or internal ma chine, wrecked the public reception room on the east side of the capitol building No one was injured.
 Officials believe that the explosive was placed by crank who desired to create a sensation. Visitors were al- lowed in the room during the day and a timed machine might have been left without attracting attention.
 Superintendent Woods of the capi- tol building, summoned by panic stricken watchmen, made a hurried investigation, then telephoned for an expert on explosives. Until the ex- pert has made his report no official statement will be made.
 Part of the ceiling and side walls of the room were shaken down, Q huge mirror and a crystal chandelier shattered and the doors blown open. One of the doors led into the offices of the vice president and is said not to have been opened in 40 years.
 The building had been closed since dark and there was no one in it but the watchmen and telephone switch board operators. Watchman Jones, on the floor below at the east ell trance, said he was blown from his chair by the explosion.
 The report could be heard for a mile and in a few minutes a crowd of excited people had gathered on the east plaza. Lights had been switched on and excited officials were rushing back and forth on two floors of the great building.
 A strong odor permeated the build ing, but no one seemed able to detect just what it was.
 Superintendent Woods said he had examined the structural features of the building and found that there was no damage other than in the imme- dite vicinity of the reception room,
 While some officials thought the ex, Dlosion was the work of an irrespoli- sible crank others suggested that it might have been perpetrated by q person desiring to demonstrate disap- provaI of some of the policies of the American government It was appar- ent that there was no intent to le- stroy life, as it is generally known the room is empty at night.

 Between $35,OO0 and $40,OOO in sal ary warrants for state officials and employees were issued from the office of the state auditor bringing the amount of outstanding warrants up to approximately $740,OO0. Nearly $7,- GOO in franchise tax inheritance tax and fees was paid into the treasury, and each payment drawn out imme- diately by salary warrants. Most or the warrants will remain unpaid for more than a month.
 State Auditor M F. Dickinson is sued a statement showing the amount of outstanding warrants June 29 was $707,155 and that the appropria- tions, not including those vetoed by Governor Hays, amount to S2,439,- 740.47 Should the Page suit contest ing the validity of the yetoes be sus- tained. S524,052 will be added to the appropriations. It is not probable. however, that more than half of this amount would be used The total in- come for the general revenue fund of the state is estimated at $2,909,000. State officials believe the revenues will fall somewhat short of this, duo to decreased assessments and the loss of franchcise tax from corporations that have withdrawn from the state.
