Two Hundred “Injured by Explosion of Naphtha and Petroleum. While a train of Naphtha cars was being switched at the Sheri- _|dan yard of. the Pan Handle rail- road, Monday night, the rear car telescoped a car forward and the leaking naphtha was ignited from a switch light, causing a terrific explosion. Twenty minutes later two cars of refined petroleum ex- ploded, and an hour later three more cars let go; sending a shower jJof flames upon the crowds of spectators who had gathered on either side of the ratlaoad, burn- ing men, woman and children in a horrible manner. All the Pitts- burg ambulances and a corps of physicians were sent to the scene. Those not seriously burned were sent to their homes. The dead were removed to the undertaking establishments in Sheridan and vicinity and to the Pittsburg morgue. 2 The escaping naphtha ran down Cork’s Run to Esplainborough, a mile and -a~half, causing an ex- plosion which utterly destroyed two hotels and a frame building in which some 200 from Pittsburg ;|were congregated, betting on the Few Mrs. Sey races_and ball games. of these escaped injury. dj/more and daughter of the Sheri- dan hotel were seriously if not fatally, injured. Of the total of 200 injured the doctors make the almost-incredible stutement that 75 per cent will probably die. Later Ffeports~ place the~ eati- mated number of persons ifjured at 300. The exact number may never be-known, as many were able to go to their homes. The hospitals are crowded. The prop- erty damage is large. At the mouth of Cork’s Run it will reach $100,000, adn addition 25 houses were destroyed. Earthquake Killed Two Thousand. A San’ Francisco dispatch says: The steamer Guatemala brings ad- ditional details of the earthquake in Central America last month. The Guatemala left the. port of that name on April 29. Upto that time 1,100 bodies had been taken out of the ruins of Queseltenango. Cap- tain Harris of the Guatemala said: It is estimated that 2,000. peo- ple were killed. They were still removing the dead when we sailed. The stench from the* unburied corpses was frightful and to avert “1a pestilence the government has been compelled to employ large gangs of men to-clear the wreck- age andthe dead. Natives from the interior are flocking to Guateniala. The inhabitants are terror strick- en. ,Farms have been deserted and there are grave fears of a famine in consequence. The Pacific coast suffered far greater damage than the Atlantic. The loss will amount to thousands and thousands of dol- lars.’’ Captain Harris said that the mer- chants of Guatemala were doingall in their power to help the poor and the distressed. Credit has been extended in many in stances for four and five years. Many of the wealthy planters have lost their entire fortunes, ae en ee a erneeteen een The Martinique Disaster. Latest reports show that the earlier news from St. Pierre and the island of St. Vincent were not overdrawn. The city of — St. Pierre is utterly destroyed. The streets are obstructed by debris ‘and the bodies of the dead. Months of labor will be required to clear the thoroughfares, as they are said to be covered toa depth of two feet by ashes and cinders, . beneath which lie the scorched and’ blackened - bodies of many of the dead. -The island is devastated. Cattle dead “and dying. Fifty ~thousand refugees are in need of assistance, _ Advices*from the island of St. Vincent are to the effect that as the result of the eruption of La Soufferiere two thousand are dead. Measures for relicf of the suf- ferers aré being furthered by the American _pedple. President Roosevelt asked for an appropria- tion of “500,000 -and on the 12th congress voted $200,000, On the morning , of a 14th Senitor Cullom reported a bill from the foreigg committee appropriating $300,000 more, which was prompt- ly passed by the senate and sent | at once to the house of represen- tutives. The president has directed all postmuasters throughout the country and requested the presi- dents of the national banks to act as agents for the collection and forwarding of contributions for relief to Cornelius. N, Bliss of New York. The postmasters are directed to report to postmaster general within 10 days’any funds collected on this account, and the public is appealed to to vontribute generously, The U..,S. ship Dixie sailed from. New York Wednesday with 3,000 tons of supplies, consisting of provisions, clothing, medicines, and a corps | of surgeons. | For the relief of the sufferers | Canada has appropriated $50,-| 000; the Berlin council’ 40,000) marks; the Pope, 20,000 lire; former President Krueger, ‘800 frances; Americins in Paris 12,000 | franks; Louis Klopseh of the | Christian Herald, 1,000 barrels of | flour, and the Lord Mayor of London has opened a fund at the| Mansion house. “One touch of nature makes the ’ whole world kin.’ .

Booth, | pastor of the Methodist church at | Moscow, Idaho, went to Oro Fino | jon Saturday and spent the night} at the hotel. Sunday evening, after attendingan Epworth League meeting, they retired to the hotel. At noon on Monday the door of their room was openéd and the girl was found dead on the bed and Leadbrooke in a dying con- dition beside her. He lived about three hours. after they—-were-dis- covered. They had taken mor- phine hypodermically. Lead- brooke was married and wealthy and had been at Moscow about a year, having come fron) Minn- esoten.

Cold Applications Superior to Derafise of Aleokhol, There Is a deep seated belief amount Ng almost to a superstition that. aleo- hol is a very important heart stimu- lant, espectattly“ when this organ is wenk, Winternits, the great authority on hydrotherapy in Germany, has often told us of the very great value of cold as a heart stimulant or tonic } and that it is far superior to aleohol in this respect. Dr, Kellogg gives the method of application ag fallows: “The application consists ef a con press applied to the portion of the chest-yatt-over-the-heart, This com- prises the space bounded by the second rib “above, the right. border ofthe sternum, a ne falling a half inch to the right of the nipple and the sixth rib below. The compress should be large enough to cover this space and to extend at lenst two Inches outside of It. Ordinarily the best effects are produced by employing water at a- temperature of about 60 degreea, Tho compress should be wrung woderately dry and should be verylightly covered, It is desirable that coollag by slow evaporation should be encouraged and be continued for some time.” Dr, Kellogg continues: 4In, Germany and France It is the custom to adialuis- ter alcohol te the patient Just before putting bim Titf’cold bath. Some prae- titioners, as Winterultz, administer but a very small amount, a single nouthful of wine, for instance, while others give brandy in considerable quantities. A few Awerican practitioners employ brandy freely with the coll bath. The unwisdom of this practice will be aj parent ou due consideration of the fol- lowing facts: “One. purpose in administering the cold bath Js to secure a true stimulant or. tonle efiect Ly arousing the vital through exclitatiom” of the nerve centers. Alcobo!l was once sup posed to be capable of effecting this and was used for this purpose in ty- phold fever and various other morbid conditions accompanied by depression of the vital forces. as the present time, however, it Is well known, and with practieal unanimity admitted, that aleohol is neither a tonle nor a stimuiant, but a narcotic; that it de- presses and does not excite; that it lessetis and does not increase the ac- tivity of the nerve centers, and that this Is true of small os well as larre doses, as has been shown by the re searches of careful investigatora.”— Health.

The cssentiais In making a good gar den aro rich soil, plenty of manure, good seeds, timely labor and a fair sea- son. Having the soil in a good tilth and planting in straight rows will save much labor in cultivating in the.gar den. One of the best ways of getting rid ot moss and lichens adhering to the bark of trees is an application of. lime white wash. In taking trees from a nursery or for est, preserve allSof the roots and fine rootlets possible. ‘Dig out instead of pulling up the tree, e When the fruit or leaves of any plant or tree are euten bysinsects of any kind, spraying in good season and suiticient ly often is the safest and best remedy. Gladiolus bulbs should be planted in full sunshine, four or five inches deep and about one foot apart. Good soil, rather sandy, is best, avoiding manure, especially if fresh, \ * With a Purpose. “Wasn't there at ungrammnatical seltence in one of your speeches?” : There was,” answered Representa- tive Husker. “I put it there on pur- pose.
