WINTER HAVEN
SCRAP BRINGS
FATAL RESULT
c. H. Stafford Dies of Injuries for
Which Oscar WadswOrth Is
Arrested

C. H. Stafford of Winter Haven
died at the Morrell Memorial Hospital
Monday evening at $50 from injuries
said to have been inflicted Sunday af-
ternoon by Oscar WadswOrth, also of
Winter Haven.
Stafford, who worked for Wads-
worth at grading and other road
work, was a boarder at the Wads-
worth home, and the trouble appears
to have started at the dinner table
Sunday. According to the story told
the officers by Wadsworth, he and his
wife and two children and Stafford
were lingering at the table after the
close of the meal, and both men had
been drinking. Stafford, speaking tC
Mrs. Wadsworth, said:
You must come with me. I am
going to take you away from here.
Thereupon, Wadsworth, resenting
this remark, secured a pair of prun-
ing shears from the back porch and
beat Stafford over the head with the
implement. according to his own ac-
count of the affair.
Stafford was brought to the Lake
land hospital at 7:30 Sunday night
His injuries consisted of a number
of bad gashes in the scalp and a
skull fracture on the left side.
The body is being held at the Gen.
try-Futch undertaking parlors pend
ing word from his brother in Smith
vile, Texas.
The deceased is about sixty years
of age and has lived in Winter Haven
for eight or ten years.
Wadsworth was placed under ar
rest by Deputy Sheriff Hardy, Sun
day AFTERNOON, and was taken Mon
day afternoon to the county Jail at
Barlow.

Greenwich Village Un-
der a Deep Pail of
Smoke That Required
the Use of Powerful
Searchlights To Enable
the Firemen To Tackle
the Blaze

New York, July 1S-A series of ex-
plosions in a warehouse at No. 10 Jane
street today shattered windows for
blocks around. Women and children
fleeing from nearby tenements were
hurled to the pavements by the force
of the blast. Five fire alarms were
turned in and ambulances took many
to hospitals.
Falling debris killed Fire Lieutenant
]. j. Schoppmeyer, and injured three
other firemen.
Police and firemen carried many
frightened women and children out of
neighboring Greenwich Village" ten
ements.
The warehouse is occupied by the
Manufacturers Transit Company.
More than an hour after the first
blast occurred intermittent explosions
were continuing in the warehouse,
filling Greenwich Village with smoke
and fumes and forcing many people to
leave their lodgings. Eleven fire
alarms had brought to the scene the
greatest array of fire apparatus turned
out since the Equitable building fire.
The warehouse in which it was be-
lieved chemicals or powder caused the
blasts, had great holes torn in the
walls and bricks, stone and packages
of goods were thrown to the pavement.
Neighbors rushing out, some tugging
household furniture with them, were
IN, cft hxyt nf
the explosion. Many of the seriously
injured were firemen and police. Hun
dreds of bluecoats quickly called to
the scene were posted at abandoned
dwellings, to prevent looting
Two hours after the fire broke out
the smoke became so thick that a
call was sent to a Brooklyn fire house,
two miles away, to bring $4,000 candle
power searchlights to Greenwich
Village to enable the firemen to see
the enveloped building. Hundreds OF
pullmotors stored by the Edison COM
pany were ordered to the scene.
A fire engine enroute from Brooklyn
struck a curb as it was nearing the
scene of the fire, throwing two men
under it's wheels. One of them was
killed and the other injured.
At noon the casualty list stood
two dead, nearly thirty injured and
three missing. Firemen of many
years service declared it the worst
blaze in their experience. Among
hundreds driven to the streets by the
sitting smoke which settled over the
district like pail were scores of art
ists hnd poets from Greenwich Vii
lagg. Standing behind the fire lines
awgre bobbed haired women and long
Haired men, putting cigarettes as the
firemen worked. The heat was so in
tense the firemen had to prop hose
nozzles at points in the street and go
to the roofs of other buildings to work
other hose lines.

BOTH VICTIMS
OF KISSIMMEE
SHOOTING DEAD

iOrlando, July 1S.-Stuart Ivey, who
wsls shot Sunday night by John Mack
died last night in a hospital here,
bringing the death list to two.
Rumors were current here last
night that Mack and Assistant Post
master C. G. Collins of Kissimmee,
who gave Mack an automatic revolver
to defend himself against persons
who, it is alleged. warned him to
leave town, because of his underbid-
ding white men on a government
mail contract, had been caught and
lynched. But according to state
ment by Judge Conner of Kissimmee
the report was false. He admitted
however, that the situation was Sc
rious.
Crowds remained on the streets OF
Kissimmee until a late hour last night
discussing the killing. Feeling is
also said to be strong against Collins
who has mot been seen since Monday
Judge Conner said an impartial in
vestigation of the whole affair would
be made.

SLOWLY STARVING TO DEATH

Stanton, KY, July 1S.-Wm. Rice, of
NADIA, today, was speechless and in a
very weakened condition on the sixty
fourth day of his voluntary fast. PLY.
sicians who have examined Rice do
not expect him to live much longer if
he continues to refuse sustenance.
Rice said he intended to fast only
40 days ito purify his body as Christ
did," but when the 40 days was up, he
continued, saying if he ate he would
go to hell and asserting he was living
on spiritual food.
Until few days ago Rice was able
to talk.
BY his bedside are a Bible, cross,
a fan, a trumpet and the likeness of
Christ.
Rice has a wife, and two daughters,
both of whom are married, and are
at his bedside.
