feet wide, constructed of galvanized
iron, were riddled as if by slugs or
bullets. The holes in the building are
from e-quarter of an inch to an inch
wide.
Packard is engaged in refining metal
for use in typesetting machines. On
he bought large quantity
of metal in South Boston and had it
taken to his plant. Early yesterday,
Mulligan and Burns put about ton of
this in vat over a furnace. A fire was
lighted, and the men stood poking the
metal as it melted. When the vat full
Of metal was nearly at boiling point,
there was terrific explosion which
rocked the building.
Fortunately both men had stepped
away from the vat. They were knocked
20 the floor, and a shower of molten
metal covered their backs and burned |
hem nearly to the bone.
The entire shop was spattered by the
lrops of molten metal. The men re-
aimed consciousness and staggered out |
# the building on to the lawn in front,
where they dropped. After receiving
irst aid treatment, they were both taken
ome.

However, the Bulgarians
Have Taken Perlepe and

A victory for the French over the Bull
garians in one sector of the front in
southern Serbia is unofficially reported
through Paris. General Sarrails troops
are said to have driven the Bulgarian
force to the right bank of the Vardar

The capture by the French of the town
of Kasturino and the defeat of Bulga-
rians by the British on the Valondovo-
Rabrovo front are also reported in ad-

north of Monastir. A London message
early to-day said confirmation had been
received in Salonik of the report that the
Bulgarians had taken Perlepe, imperilling
Monastir, which the Serbians were pre-
pairing to evacuate, it was said.
Progress of the Italians in the cam
paign against Gorilla is reported by
Rome, a strong entrenchment on the
height northwest of the city having been
taken.
Relluno, an Italian city, about so miles
north of Venice, has been bombarded by /

the slight wounding of three persons the

Artillery engagements and fighting with
trench guns is reported by Paris from
the front in France. No infantry attacks
are mentioned.
