CHICAGO GAS BLAST
Tank Explosion Scatters
Flames Over an Area
Half Mile Square.

CHICAGO. July 31.-Scores Of
houses were set on fire and more
than 100 persons were injured to-
day when an illuminating gas tank
exploded. The top of the tank and
its contents were hurled high into
the air in a gigantic pillar OF name
and the burning gas was shot out
over the roofs of adjoining houses
and on the heads of men. women
and children in the nearby streets.
Scores of houses were set afire
instantaneously. many of them be-
ing destroyed. In others the terrific
heat caused the walls to crack and
the window glass to melt.
A check-up by the police shows
no one was killed outright. so far
as known. but several persons were
so badly burned they will die. The
heat was distinctly felt two miles
distant and one victim. a quarter
of a mile from the scene of the eN-
plosion. suffered severe burns on
his neck and shoulders.
Throughout an area OF a half
mile square people were burned
and property destroyed or badly
damaged. Witnesses say the steel
roof Of the big tank was torn into
shreds, large sections folding up
like canvas and hot fragments be-
ing scattered for Blocks. The cause
of the explosion has not been de-
termined.

When Miss Washington" II se-
lected finally as the representative
of the District Of Columbia at the
great annual Atlantic City fall
pageant, September 6. and 8. the
question of who is the most beauti-
full and attractive young woman
in the Capital will be settled in q
way which will leave no room for
doubt as to the justice of the award.
Nine competent Judges, all prom
inent in art, theatrical and civic
circles. will select the ten most
beautiful from whom the final choice
OF Miss Washington" will be made.
There will be no solicitation, no
voting In this selection. Merit
alone will weigh in the judges
estimation.
The definite refusal of Miss Mar

can be no charge of favoritism or
