Shortly before midnight while a
local train from Harrisburg was pass
ing a water station west of Bellwood

and an investigation revealed that a
heavy charge of dynamite had been
iput off with a true fuse. Discovery
was made of 86 ticks of dynamite, in
packages of eight to ten sticks each.
with fuses attached. They were scat~
tered over the four tracks and some
of the explosive was found in a water
trough between the tracks. Shortly:
before 2 a. in. there was a second on

ger coaches which had been stored for

WASHINGTON. D. 0., July 12.—The
order of Secretary of War Baker to
army departmental commanders to
relieve from duty all enlisted men of
the National ‘Guard who have wives
or families dependent on them will re-
move the necessity for the senate
passing the House bill to pay all such
dependents not to exceed 850 a month
,while the militiamen are on duty.
It will also relieve the government
of an item of expense that threatened
to almost bankrupt it in case of an
extended campaign in Mexico, and
will prevent untold suffering to the
families of men who for patriotic rea-
sons would not have applied for the
allowance.

Fire which broke out early this

destroyed the garage and the seven-
passenger Studebaker automobile be-
longing to Mrs. Marie Agnese, of 114

The blaze. which started from
some unknown origin, was first dis-
covered when the flames burst through
the sides and roof of the building.
Box No. 26 was pulled. and the central
station apparatus responded on the
jump. When the firemen arrived, the
building was a furnace. Several
hundred feet of hose were laidrsand
after a stubborn fight the fire was sub-
dued after the building itself. and a
large seven-passenger Studebaker
machine had been completely destroy-
The machine was insured for 3600
through the Taylor & Golden Insur-

partly covered with 8500 through the

On the way to the blaze, owing to
the roughness of the road, the truss

were stripped. The machine has been
repaired today, and is now ready for
