retained his justice docket contrary

prosecution that the commission

EIGHT DEAD AND SO
ARE HURT IN BLAST

CHICAGO, July Slight men are
dead, Sc others are injured, ten so
|seriously that they may die, and
property damage is unofficially esti-
mated at two million dollars as the
result of yesterdays explosion in the
Standard OIL company's refining plant
at Whiting, Ind.
Two huge steel stills burst, the
brick walls inclosing them crumbled
and a sheet of burning oil and gas
spread for a radius of two hundred
yards, trapping the night force. Five
men were burned to death, three died
later in Chicago hospitals and the
condition of ten others is serious.
Most of those injured were caught
in the shower of flame, but others
were struck by the falling brick and
steel walls of the stills Excessive
pressure or tiny leak of gas were
! two probable causes of the explosion
advanced by those familiar with the
operation of the stills which are fill
ed with crude oil under pressure in
the manufacture of gasoline.
The first still to explode fell
against the second, causing it to let
go also. Fire ignited the wreckage
and it was some time before some
Of the bodies could be recovered.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calonel acts like dynamite on a

and quicker than nasty calomel and
without making you sick, you just
go back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be

LONDON.-CBy Mail. 1.-The open
season for travelling in Europe is on
and the average Americans who
come over will be shot as full OF
hole as a decoy duck. Every hotel
keeper is bent on squeezing the
ceiving complaint against the most
unreasonable eXtortion, smiles obse-
quiously and murmurs the new Eu-
ropean slogan, But you have dol
lars
The only real good the exchange
does Americans as matter of fact
is to make them feel richer. In Cen
trail Europe, Germany and Italy the
prices are still relatively low. In
Belgium the level of food prices be-
gins to approach the American, and
in France, and, strangely enough
Holland, one pays dollar for dollar
and sometimes a little more. In all
these countries one may find rela-
lively cheap hotels and restaurants
but they are both well off the beaten
tourists tracks, and dirty. The line
rather sharp.
No American need fear the food
shortage, even in Austria. There 1t
is still practically impossible to get
white bread, though this in the sur
rounding countries is readily avail
able
It is discouraging to try to travel
for pleasure, however, in any of the
countries except those along the At
lantic and North sea. The train
services, owing to the coal shortage
have been so curtailed that the cars
are hopelessly overcrowded.
The hotels are continually filled
One must reserve rooms from one to
ten days ahead. And, the complete
traveller must be equipped with q
full assortment of bug and itch ONT
ments. The bugs have become SC
brazen that they don't wait to begin
operations even until the lights are
out.

PICK TRAVELLERS CLEAN

as restaurants have evolved what
amounts to double tipping system
Placards announce that no tips will
be accepted, and that instead a serv-
ice charge of from 10 to 15 per cent
will be made. But, to get out with
out tipping takes an accomplished
burglar. One proprietor, when asked
if the service was paid for, replied
well, yes, but"
A cover charge Is also in the list
of refined extortions. In one tiny
restaurant in Venice the cover I had
certainly had made more than
enough to buy a clean one. The serv-
ice was rendered by the proprietor S
small son. Both charges were new
ertheless among those present.
There is, however, one new con
Venience. Almost every man who
went home from England or Amer
lea to fight has now become a waiter
or a porter, SO that knowledge of an
extra language, except for arguing
with the taxicab drivers, Is almost
superflouous.
Though Holland is to Monaco as q
washtub is to a fingerbowl, it is for
q visit the most pleasant country
of all. One is sure of courteous
treatment and the inhabitants radiate
contentment. 1t is not necessary
as it is in Italy, and, to a less de-
gree, in France, to tip every one fol-
the most elementary courtesy. The
place is extraordinarily clean and
the food extraordinarily good. 1t is
a delight, also, to talk to the Hol'
landers-most of them speak Eng
fish. French and German. They are
hroad-minded and impartial. Wher
there is so much jealousy abroad il
is refreshing to find country small
big enough not to try continually by
intrigue to get bigger. When Hol'
land wants more territory it pumps
some more water out Of the Zuidel
Zee.

they are confronted with a dreadful

Suppose these statements be at

which is wholly inconceivable-the
dominion would, not permit her. No
