Two men were killed yesterday by an

The victims were the only occupants
Of the building in which the explosion
occurred. They were employed by the
Atlas Powder Company as dynamite
packers. The dynamite packing house,
one story frame structure which, like
the others at thc powder plant, is iso.
lated for safety's sake, was wrecked
by tho explosion.
Explosion Shakes Towns
Towns within radius Of fifteen or
twenty miles trcmblcd at the dctona
tion. 1t was heard at Newton, twenty
two miles away. The town Of Lake
Hopatcong was shaken as though by an
earthquake. Windows were broken and
dishes were thrown from the shelves.
Scarcely a vcstigc Of the dynamite
packing house remained. Coroner
David FIGHTER, of Wharton, went to
the powder companys plant, but was
informed that the ruin Of the dynamite
packing house was so complete that
probably the company's experts never
would be able to discover the cause of
! the explosion.
The blast occurred at 11:10 a. m.
Often the dynamite packers have 10000
pounds of explosive to handle. The
quantity Of dynamite in the pack
ing house at the time Of the explosion
has not been ascertaincd.
Workmen Hurled to Floors

above the plant when the dynamite
exploded. The shock threw workmen

lhe emergency call was sounded and
men came running from various parts
of the plant prepared to fight fire
or engage IN rescue work There was
nothing for them to do except to

who were in the dynamite packing
house at the time of the explosion.
fragments of them were found at a
considerable distance from the spot
where the structure had stood. Even

NURSE TOLD HIM
TO TAKE TANLAC
"And II Certainly Is Doing The
Work." Declares Lutherville
Citizen.

81 have only been taking Tanlac
for about ten days, but already my
family and neighbors are talking
about how much better | look" said
John II. Blake, well known farmer
of Lutherville, Baltimore County, Md.
81 had been under the weather for
about a year and half, and was so
run down that | was hardly worth a
nickel so far as work was concerned.
| had lost about twenty pounds in
weight, had no strength or energy
and was just dragging around. We
have plenty to eat on the farm, but
my appetite went back on me and
what little did force down caused
me no end of trouble.
"My stomach would get sour as
vinegar, would bloat badly and
have spells of pain and heart palpi-
tation that would almost lay me out.
| was very nervous, could not sleep
and felt tired and worn out all the
time. A trained nurse, who is
friend of our family, advised me to
try Tanlac, saying she had taken it
herself with remarkable results, and
it certainly is doing the work for me,
too. Already eat good, sleep sound
at night and feel better than l have
in years. Tanlac is making a new
man Of me and wouldn't be without
it."
Tanlac is sold by all good drug
gists.

Mourning fashions In some OF the
foreign quarters go TO lengths that to
the average American seem unreason-

quarters. when the father Of family

itely. No matter how young n girl Is.
she Is expected 10 wear dead black all

rule Is not closely observed. but no

Of her mother, without coming In for
some criticism. Three years OF wear
