VULCANIZING TANK IN DIR. KAL.-
HERS OFFICE BLEW UP,
- CAUSING DAMAGE ~5

Explosion of vulcanizer in the
work room Of DR.. E. w. Kaiher, den
tist, First National bank building,
yesterday afternoon at : about l:l5,
caused considerable damage to the Of
flee and equipment but without injur-
ing anyone. :x
The vulcanizer, small copper tank
used for cementing the gum for arti-
ticial teeth, was on a one-burner oil
stove and contained set of teeth that
were in the process Of vulcanizing.
Aside from this the tank contained on
ly water. DR.. Kaliher had looked after
it but minute before and when the
explosion occurred, he was working on
the teeth of patient few feet
away. The top of the tank shot up
ward and tore large hole in the cell
ing. The force of the explosion. buckled
the oil stove in the middle and two
windows, one on the west side of the
office and one on the south side,
crashed. All that could be found Of
the set Of teeth was a part -. of .. one
tooth and the frame for the cast. The
report from the explosion was a loud
one and the shock was felt all through
the building
DR.. Kaliher was very much surprised
when he discovered the cause Of the
explosion. The vulcanizing tank was
new one and had been used but three
or four times. It was guaranteed to
stand a temperature Of 320 degrees,
but the actual temperature was but
312 when he looked at it minute be-
fore.

LOST HUSBANDS
L0VEr-WANTS $4,000
MRS. MARY CALLIGOR, LITTLE
FALLS, STARTS DAMAGE SUIT
AGAINST ST. PAUL WOMAN

Melvina Levaque of 399 Capitol Ave:
nue., st. Paul, is named as defendant
in a suit for $4,000 damages for alien
alton Of affections, instituted in Ram
sey county district court by Mrs. Mary
Calligor, Of this city, on account OF
her husband, Anton (Tony) Calligor,
leaving her. The filing of garnishee
papers this week by the plaintiff
to prevent the withdrawal by the de-
fendant of money deposited in a ST..
Paul bank brought the damage suit
to public notice. s,
Mir. Cs.lligoI WAS a : member OF the
Little Falls police force for short
time several years ago. Later he was
arrested by federal detectives on a
charge of impersonating federal pro-
hibition agent and thus protecting
bootleggers operating in what was
then Indian territory. This case is
said to be still pending in federal court.
From what can be learned in connec-
tion with the damage suit, instituted
by Mrs. Calligor, her husband is said
to have gone to McGregor in Aitkin
county, two years ago and wkile work
ing on the section there, he is said to
have become acquainted with Mrs. Le-
vague, who with her husband operated
hotel there. Mrs. Levaque since that
time has secured a divorce from her
husband and it is said that Mr.. Cali
cor continued to live with her at Nc
Gregor, posing as cook, until an in
vestigation was started by Aitkin
county authorities, when they moved
to St. Paul.
Mr.. Caligor was in Little Falls
for about two wee SIX recently, but
is said to have returned to st. Paul.
He has made application for citizen
ship in district court here. It seems
that he was suspended from the police
force here when this country entered
the world war, as he was not natur
allied citizen and was an enemy alien.

JUDGE BAZIILE DEAD

Judge of Probate E. W. Bazille Of
st. Paul, died Wednesday at his home
in that city, after long illness, at the
age Of 66 years.
Judge Bazille, who married Miss

years ago, is we'll known by a number

construction Of mill at Pierz, begin
ming operations on October IL, 1905,
with a capacity of l25 barrels. Charles
E. Gravel, a son, was taken into the
business as manager and partner.
i "LSeveral years ago Mr.. Gravel re-
moved from Little Falls to Onamia,
MINI, and in partnership with G. B.
Buckman and a man by the name Of
MCGEE, engaged in the lumber and
mercantile business. Later the part
nership was changed to Gravel and
Robinson, but the company was oper-
ated as the .Onamia Lumber and Mer
camille company. In 1913, Mr.. Gravel
purchased the interest of Mr.. Robin
son in the business, and took into the
business with him his two SONS, F. H.
and E. a. Gravel, who now operates it..
Charles Gravel, ST., is now man past
70 years, but is remarkably well pre-
served for: one Of that age. His active
life seems to have been good for him
and he is now able to walk faster and
farther than most men of SO or even
less. Although not at present a resi-
dent of Morrison county, he is very
well known here for what he has done
to promote the commercial develop
meht .sof this section of Minnesota.
Essentially, Charles Gravel, Sr., be
longs to the era of pioneer develop
ment, but unlike some Of the men with
whom he has been associated in this
| great work, he has lived to see the
slow fruition Of the many, things for
which he has striven in the building of
this commonwealth. /"
Surviving Mr.. Gravel are his wife
and seven children. They are Mrs.
John Cans of st. Cloud; G. E. Gravel,

Died

DeaCn laSC SUNDAY cldlmou as 1tS VIC
tim a man who was prominently iden-
titled with the development Of Morri-
son county and who was highly esteem
ed and respected by the many people
in Morrison, Crow Wing, Todd and
Mile Lacs counties who knew him.
That man was Charles Gravel, ST., Of
Onamia. Death occurred Sunday morn
ing at Ills at his home and was caused
by paralytic stroke which he suffered
about two weeks previous. He was rs
years old. .
Mr.. Gravel was an unusually active
man, even in the last years Of his life,
and so far as is known, was apparently
in good health up to the time he suf:
fered the stroke. It was while he was
driving out to examine a piece of land
on which he had sold some stumpage,
that he was stricken. He was found in
the road by Henry Goulet and two
other Onamia men and was taken to a
nearby farmhouse and later to his
home in Onamia. His condition was at
first critical but later he rallied and
hopes were entertained for his recov-
cry. Saturday night, however, his con.
dition became worse and at 1:l5 the
next morning, he yielded his life to the
Grim Reaper.
Of him the History of Morrison and
Todd counties, published in 1915, says:
"Perhaps very few men have had a
larger part in the development Of the
great northwest than the venerable
Onamia, Mile Lacs county, Minnesota
but who is interested in the flour mill
at Pierz, MINI. Mr.. Gravel is native
of Montreal, Canada, born on Dec. 13
1914.
"Charles Gravel, ST., was educated
in the public schools Of Canada an6
lived in the Dominion of Canada unit
2l years old, having learned the car
penter trade under the direction Of his
| father, who taught the trade to all his
seven sons. "When Mr.. Gravel was
21 years old, he removed to Fon dr
