In the opora house last Friday evening,

occupy tho back seals in ino opera i

the changes were made was a miserable

Mrs. D. R. Andros came near being
tho victim of a horrible accident Mon
day of this week. She had thrown
some damp paper into a stove prepara
tory to lighting a fire. After she had
lartorl the fire she stooped down to
r, thn fmnt ni the stove wnen 10
gas, which had been generated from the
damp paper, exploded, throwing me
flames out ol the atove ana sinning ner
squarely In the face. Before she could
get away from the atove another explo
sion occurred with the eame result.
tsnm tana waa hflitlv burned but tho
probabilities are that no serious resnlte
will follow.
Our business la growing rapidly
and our ouatomorB are well satisfied.
