onsocket.-The fine modern
homo of John Privet. who lives six
miles southwest of this city. was badly
damaged by an explosion of uncertain
origin. The family was awakened by
an explosion that shook their home
from cellar to roof. Mr.. Privet, who
was asleep on the second floor. was
nearly thrown from his bed. Near
the foot of the cellar stairs were two
galvanized iron tubs. nestled. and in
the top one something was blazing
f1ercely, the blaze reaching to and
scorching the woodwork overhead.
The fire was extinguished before 1t
had done any damage.
An examination disclosed the fact
that the home was in sad condition.
But little damage was done in the eel.
lar where the explosion evidently took
place, but the entire house from the
first floor to the roof was badly racked
and damaged.
The theory is advanced that because
OF Privet's anti-German stand since
the inception of the war in 1914, the
explosion is the work of a pro-Ger
man. But the preponderence of the
evidence indicates that escaping gas
was the cause. The house is lighted
by hollow wire gasoline system and
was used the night before for the
first time in several months, the lights
burning until 2 o'clock in the morning
