HUNTED FOR GAS LEAK WITH
A MATCH-SHE FOUND n!

New Bedford. Mass.-Striking a
match to light the gas Jet in the
bathroom at her home, Miss Anna G.
Sullivan of 124 Hillman street, a
clerk of the registry of deeds, was
severely burned about the face and
arms yesterday as q result Of \ gas
explosion. She had entered the room
and detecting slight odor of gas
started to light the jet in order to
find the cause. AS she did so a
violent explosion resulted which
threw her to the floor unconscious
and badly burned her face, arms and
hair.
Her father. Timothy Sullivan who
is the housekeeper of station 8,
heard the explosion and rushed in to
find his daughter lying on the floor.
DR.. HI L. Stevens was called at once.
He sisted that her burns were severe
but that she was not in . critical
condition. Probably what saved
her from worse injury. however, was
the caf THAT she had closed the door
before striking the match and thus
prevented any draught. That saved
her clothes from taking fire as they
probably would have done otherwise

FLEES IN NIGHTGOWN

Paris, Sept. 1.-How a German
shell sent Mrs. William X. Wander
bilt fleeing in her nightgown with
her hair down her back and a pair
of loose slippers Tapping over her
bare feet, was related today by ofh-
GERS of the American ambulance who
her on tour of the
French front.
Mrs. Vanderbilt told the French
officers escorting the party that she
hoped to hear the cannot" She
got her wish all right. One night
while the party was sleeping at
ont-a-Mousson, the Germans opened
a heavy bombardment that wrecked
several nearby houses and sent the
party rushing into reinforced cave.
Mrs. Vanderbilt had time only to
throw q loose robe over her night
gown as she ran dwnstairs.
AT another place she approached
so near the trenches that French
soldier warned her that one OF his
comrades had been killed near the
spot where she was standing only
five minutes before.

about in shell holes and in all places,

the odor is all about. The first morn

some wounded chaps who had crept

but we all got away.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 1.-iMore than
10000 horseS md mules have been
bought in Georgia and other South
ern States within the last year by
agents Of England and France, ac-
cording to stock dealers in Atlanta !.
The animals, principally horses,
were for cavalry and artillery pur-

The average price was $175 ahead.
Mounts weighing from $50 to LOO
pounds were sent to the cavalry
stations on the continent. The heav-
Ter horses were drafted for the ar
tillery.
Atlanta has been q distributing
point for horses and mules for many
years, and especially does this apply
to what is termed tn southern
trade which includes the States of
North and South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama and Tennessee.
Horses and mules Weighing from
$50 ia I,100 pounds form the bulk
of the southern shipments.
All the army animals have to pass

MIAM's CONDITION IN CASE OF
STRIKE WOULD BE SERIOUS

Miami, Sept. Infant dealers
in food supplies were decidedly pessi-
mistic when seen yesterday by re-
porter for the Herald and questioned
regarding possibilities Of a food
shortage in this city in the event OF
. general railway strike that would
completely tie up transportation ia
cilities. There was an occasional
note of optimism, however, and it
became evident that one or two Of
the leading dealers have anticipated
such q condition and made their pur-
chases accordingly, and therefore are
prepared to serve their patrons with
the necessities Of life for some weeks
to come.
The general belief among the mer-
chants was that the supplies Of vari-
our food stuffs now in Miami would
last two or three weeks, and that if
there is no means Of adding consid-
erably to the stock Of goods now on
hand Miamians may have to tighten
their belts in the event that the
strike continues through several
weeks.
While it was admitted that Miami
has water transportation that may
be Of considerable help in such an
emergency as appears to await the
nation, It was pointed out that the
cities from which Miami draws its
supplies must be supplied by rail
and wholesalers would take care Of
the retailers in those cities before
sending provisions and groceries to
other cities.
