Emporium, Pa.

EMPORIUM, Pa, oct. An eX-
plosion of nearly 5000 pounds of gun
cotton Wednesday night killed at least
four men and injured a dozen in the
Aetna Explosive Co. plant. The death
list may be greater.
The blow-up was in the guncotton
drying department. This building is
isolated, consequently the rest of the
plant suffered only from flying frag-
ments of masonry and steel.
No reason for the explosion has
been established.
The Aetna plant here is a product
OF the war 1t is manufacturing for
the British and French governments.
Growth of the plant on this account
has added about 5000 to the popu-
latiOn Of Emporium.
Constant patrols of guards have
been maintained at the explosive
works since the war orders caused
their enlargement. Threats against
the plant have been reported.
No trace of the four men known
to have been in the building ut the
time has been found. Their identity
has not been established. II is posi-
BILE more men were with them.
The injured were taken to the COM
pany's hospital.

GARY. Ind, oct. THE first an
nual Tem-u-lac celebration, which be-
gan here yesterday, will last until Sat
urday night, and during that time
thousands of visitors are expected in
the city.
The affair is in the nature of a fall
prosperity celebration. Included among
the attractions is a big open air in

local and out-of-tOwn retail and whole
sale houses being among the eXhlD-
itors There is also an auto show, the
province of pleasure which consists
of 10 blocks Of attractions on Broad

ton effects have been added to Broad

as a white way"
On Friday there wi. be big civic
celebration. with fire prevention and

line Originally it was intended to call
Friday William Writ day." in honor
Of Gary's school superintendent, but
Mr. Writ vetoed all plans to honor him
publicly and asked that the day be
observed for the Gary school children
instead.
Reversed Spelling of Calumet.
Tem-u-lac was chosen for the name
Of the exposition after a contest had
been held The winning name was
suggested by Carl J. Cooper. news
paper man. Tem-u-lac is the reverse
spelling of Calumet, the name of this
region Calumet is an Indian word
meaning pipe of peace and the name
is in general use from Michigan City
to South Chicago. Banks, saloons,
newspapers, rivers, streets and mer-
camille companies bear the name Cal
umet.
The Tem-u-lac is the outgrowth CT
the big boom that has taken posses
sion of the Calumet region within the
last few months. Every plant in the
Gary steel belt is working "a hours a
day. seven days a week. Unlike in
other prosperous times. there is no
slowing up for repairs on Sundays. All
mills are working full capacity and no
/ one lacks job. 1t is said that in many
/ departments there are orders ahead
until 1917 and each day witnesses an
increasing volume of business. AL
/ though war orders play a prominent
part. the bulk of the business is stated
/ to be for commercial purposes.
