A spec ial to the Tribune from Price, Utah, lays that a heavy explosion occurred at the St. Louis Ullson Asphaltum Com pauy'a mine, near Fort Duchosne, at 8 o'clock this - afternoon, in which two men wbi-e killed and three others in jured. The killed are: Charles An derson and Andy Garner. The explo' siou was terrific, the report being dis tinctly board at Vernal, thirty miles distant AH the buildings at the fort were shaken and many windows broken. Tbe explosion was caused by tbe combustion of asphaltum dust aud g is, the mine immediately taking fire. The hi at is so intense that it is impos sible to get near it. Tbe flames are rising from all three shafts 100 feet in the air, and there ia no possible way of extinguishing tbem. It is not probable that the bodies of Anderson aud Gar ner will ever be recovered. Theeutire command at the fort was hurried to the iceue, but could render no assistance. MERE MATTER OF ROUTINE. Nothing Secret or Sensational About FortlUcutlon. Washington, Nov. 26. At the war department it is stated that there it nothing significant or new in the prepa rations for improving the battery de fenses at Florida ports, as Key West dispatches state. Tbe annual report of the chief of engineers, made publio on June 80, oalls attention to the anti quated coast defenses at Fort Marion, St Augustine and on Florida Keys. It states that large sums oould be expend ed on them to advantage, and adds that, "under the authority given by congress to the seoertary of war, it is intended to advertise at an early date for proposals for oonstrnoting emplace ments for four ten-inch and two eight inch guns on disappearing carriages, aud sixteen twelve-inch mortars" These are the guns referred to In the dispatches from Key West, stating that Lieutenant-Colonel Ueinbard has pto cteded with great secrecy, and that tht contracts are the regular execution ol the work pnblioly reported five monthi go. Some plana are similarly made concerning the work at Pensaoola and Florida Keys. Barrlaon't Hons Kobbed. Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 26.

There are very intelligent men and women who still prefer open flies to steam pipea and furnaces.
