told by Superintendent Bedler.
Eva Zavalosek, the only girl of those
at the packing bench to escape from
the building, declared that the other
girls must hav had the same chance
to escape that shs bad. All employes
who testified swore to the rigid en
forcement of the rules for their pro
tection. Flaen Follows aarlu
reputy Plstrlct Attorney Bishop al
lowed the greatest latitude In the ex
amination In order fully to satisfy the
many relatives of victims, and called
for any voluntary evidence that would
throw light on the tragedy.
All that F. X. Hull. W. Combs and
Eva Zavalosek could testify to aa to
how the Are started waa that they
first saw a spark, which was followed
so quickly by ths flash that they all
were blown by Us force from the
building.
Nothing sensational developed at any
time, all ths evidence going to show
that the firs was wholly unexplalnable.
p. A. Hull, one of the witnesses, told
of having been hurled through a dis
tant door and entirely through a box
car, of which both doors were open,
landing 10 feet on ths other side.

Ethel Tharp's funeral will be held
Sunday at the Christian Church. Ar
rangements for the burial of TUUe
Rosebacb and Mrs. Ethel Henry have
not been completed yet.
An early report that other bodies had
been found In the wreck of ths factory
turned out to be untrue. The finding
of two skull and some human bones In

It waa found that they were from
bodies that had been hastily taken

Victor I Bodler. superintendent of

made the follomlng statement today:
"I bad Juat started from the packing
room into a boxcar on the aiding, which
was about two-thirds loaded with pow
der, to check It up. I was opposite ths
door of the car when the f,aah occurred.
I waa aent headlong through the car
and lit on the ground about 10 feet
away. As there was no exploalon I
supposed everyone had safely reached
the outside. Aa eoon as I could I tried
to get the other men to return and
movs the car out of danger, and It
waa then I learned that soms of the
girls had not eacaped.

-One thing which struck me forcibly
waa the fact that the bodies of all ths
victims wsrs found near where their
wraps were hung. The lunch pall of
one of the glrla was by ber body. This
leada mo to believe that when the flash
occurred the girls all ruabed for their
wrapa. while the men ran for the doora,
of which there were three, all eaatly
acceaaible to thoss lnslds ths building

THE EYE LIKE
A CAMERA
r
v..
v
The eye is constructed so won
derfully and ingeniously that the
handicraft of man has as yet not
been able to construct as delicate
an instrument. It is like a cam
era the lens to focus, the lid as
a shutter, the iris or color as the
diaphrajrm. the thick eoatings of
the eyeball as the darkroom, the
nerve as the sensitive plate, and,
strange as it may seem, the im
ages are bottom eide up, exactly
as the image in the camera. Now,
so delicate and sensitive an organ
as the eye should have pd care.
Let us explain more fully to you
how to care for the eyes.
Slost people cannot afford to
pay high prices for their glasses,
yet they should have the very best
of good work, and here is where
we can serve such people.
