MUNITION PUNT EXPLOSION
A P. A. Service
PARIS, March 4.—Two hun
dred persons were killed and in
jured in a terrihc explosion which
took place in the government mu
nitions plant at Lacoureville, in
the surburbs of Paris today. In
addition a large portion of the
plant was destroyed and will be
temporarily out of operations for
some time.
The section of the plant af
fected by the explosion is little
more thm a mass of heaped up
debris in which many bodies are
supposed to be buried. A total
of twenty dead have so far been
recovered and one hundred and
filly injured are now occupying
various hospitals. Also a con
-iderable number of the employes
.ire missing leading to the infer
ence that they were caught be
neath the falling masonry and
buried. Careless handling of
band grenades is ascribed as the
;.usc of catastrophe.

In order to insure a full orehes

to send his fast dog teams to Sol

these two artists the orchestra

Charles Olsen, better konwn as
‘Smiling Charlie” is reported to
have severely frozen his hands
while returning to his cabin on
\nvil creek after a visit to the
Three Star fraction on the beach
ine. Olsen according to the re
port, started home during a bliz
zard and had a very difficult time
1 making it. The frozen members
I were taken care of by friends in

that tThariie will lose either his

An individual who evidently
conceives himself something of a
nasher is reported to have receiv
ed a severe drubbing at the hand1
pf two well known young men
Monday evening, after he had per
sisted in forcing his attentions on
the young daughters of a well
known citizen wrho were returning
home after visiting a moving pic
ture show. It is said that the
party with the mashing ptoclivi
ties received enough to Leach bin
that actions of that nature are not
only very much frowned upon
but also justify strangers in de
livering well merited chastise
ment. The party in question will
probably think twice before he
again attempts to approach w'el1
behaved school girls on the public
thoroughfares without having ob
tained a formal introduction.
The entertainment committee o'
the Chamber of Commerce held a
meeting yesterday and laid furthe
preliminary plans for the project
ed “Booster Day.” After some
discussion the committee, which
consists of the following: Fred
Daniels, James P- Daly, H. Burgh
Thomas McCann and Dan Crow
ley, decided that the appointment
of a number of ladies to the com
mittee would tend to more ef
fective action and the following
were added to the committee:
Mrs. Darling, Mrs. Diamond and
Mrs. Casey. After completing
organization the committee then
adjourned until Thursday after
noon at two, at which hour thev
will meet at the residence of
Chairman Daniels to finally per
fect their plans.
Two games were played in the

of seven games played. A match
in the A class is on the cards for
this evening, one of the contest

WASHINGTON, March 6.—
Col. House, who reached New
York on the White Star liner Can
opic yesteraav, arrived in the cap
ital this morning and was taken
to the White House immediately
where he held a long talk with
President Wilson. The confer
ence lasted the greater part of
'wo hours. At its conclusion the
colonel returned to New York.
Speculation is rife as to the ob
ject of the colonel’s visit to Eu
rope but so far nothing has been
duvulged as to reason for his trip
10 Berlin and other, capitals and
nothing has escaped him as to
the foreign situation.
