EIGHT EXPLOSIONS IN
SEWER LINE.
ONE STORE WRECKED
EVERY WINDOW IN FlVE-SToRY
STRUCTURE is DEMOLISHED
BY CONCLUSION.
(western Newspaper Union News Service. ,

Minneapolis, Minn.-Nearly 100 per
sons were injured in eight explosions
in downtown Minneapolis which
caused property damage estimated at
$4,000 Most of those hurt were cut
by flying glass or were bruised and
stunned when thrown to the pave
ment. The first explosion that oc-
Cured was believed to have been
caused when short circuit in the
power cable manhole at Sixth street
The manhole cover was blown about
twenty feet, and flames shot into the
air. A number of persons were in
jured there. A few moments later an
other explosion occurred across the
street.
Twenty-Five persons were injured in
this blast Many women tainted and
children were trampled on in the rush
of the crowds to get away. A cigar
store was wrecked, the damage being
estimated ut $12,50O.
The police finally managed to rope
off the danger zone and the later eX-
plosions broke only glass windows or
tore small holes in the street.
Eight stores on Nicollet avenue and
the Minneapolis Electric Light Com
pany's power cable system were the
principal sufferers. Window displays
of two jewelry stores, including thou
sands of dollars worth of diamonds
were scattered about the street. The
jewelry was recovered, however
Crowds forced their way to the
scene of the explosion in spite of eff
forts of police to keep them back. Vol
unteers finally assisted the authOri
ties and fire line was formed. Hard
ly had the crowd been driven away
from the blazing manholes when sec.
ond explosion across the street
wrecked a cigar store and injured a
score of men and women.
One man, standing near a manhOle
when the top blew out, was thrown
several feet and severely bruised. Two
other men standing near were thrown
down by the force of the explosion
and fell into the manhole, from which
the flames were shooting. Firemen
pulled them out before they were Sc
riously burned.

Judge.

Portland, Ore.-Mrs. Lena Mayson

school, so she had to find a way to
make enough money, she testified in

covered her still and shot holes in the
profits.

my roomng house, judge" she said,
land l simply had to get my children
through school, I've been buying them

Judge Deich, however, had informa-

and denounced her for saying she was
providing for the children when she
was only buying them extras.
The judge sentenced Mrs. Mayson
to five days in Jail and to pay 5000
fine on the eve of the graduation from
grammar school of the two youngsters.

airy Board, embarked from Seattle,
Wash, for the Orient, Saturday,
August 81, as passengers of the Ad-
miral Line, which operates a fleet of

ligioes workers } ever sent abroad
from America in body, included Mr..

station at Wuchow, South China.
Ten States were representative

WEIGHING A PIG

There's an easy way to weigh a
pig without scales" said an Irish
man. "You get plank and put IT
across a stool. Then you get a big
stone. Put the pig on one end Of the
plank and the stone on the other end,
and then shift the plank until they
balance. Then you guess the weight
of the stone and you have the weight
of the pig"
A good many men use about the
same system in their business af-
fairs, content themselves with guess
ing about everything, and their
guesses are usually wrong, and then
they wonder why they never sue

AN UNUSUAL AMERICAN

Japan has decorated an American
with the order of merit of the fourth

but it doesn't matter The point is
that there is one American who ad-

class.
The average American, if offered 4
decoration by Japan, would have in
sisted upon one of the first class, AMI
it he couldn't have had that he
wouldn't have taken any.
