TEACHER AND SEVEN CHILDREN
 KILLED WHEN NITRO-GLYCERINE CAN EXPLODES AT SCHOOLHOUSE

Lawrenceville and persons hurry ing toward the school house were met by screaming children.
 Neighbors were the first to reach the school and calls were immediately sent to Vincennes, Ind. for ambulances.
 The eXpIosion occurred about 75 feet from the school house. All of those killed were grouped about the can and the rest of the pupils were either in the school or playing in the yard.
 The authorities were told that the boys. who were at play, had fished the can from the creek near the school yard.
 It is believed that the container had floated down from a nitro glycerine magazine about three quarters of a mile away.
 It was said that the practice is to empty the cans at the magazine afterwards destroying them and it is believed that the container was one that held only a small amount of explosive and had been thrown in the creek.
 Authorities, however. are plan- ming to inquire further into causes of the accident, it was said.

COston appeared for the Doug las-COchise Stage Line to ask for a permit to inaugurate a stage service between Douglas and Cochise. making one round trip each day and railroad connections with both terminals. The Motor Transit Company also made ap- plication to operate over the same route, but withdrew the application upon finding that the Douglas-Cochise line had applied first.
 Two applications for permits to op- crate a stage line between Don Luis, Lowell and Tin Town were entered by Pinnex and Murphy. and by w. B, Mcintosh.

The hearing in this case was continued until Wed nesday morning at S:30 o'clock or the representation of Frank Thomas counsel for Godinas. wno requested time to bring witnesses to rebut the testimony offered against his client.

 "The board all voted for it except John Billings, of Osago county. Amos Standering of Richville, Mo. and liar 'vey. Billings and Standering were not present"
 As the mine leader replied Dorchy stood nearby and said repeatedly. '' am guilty, I am guilty"
 In urging the arrest of the men Attorney General Hopkins said to the court:
