NITRO GLYCERINE EXPLOSION
- ACTS LIKE AN EARTHQUAKE
NORTHERN PACIFIC
Oakland, OaU March 14. An explo
sion of nltro glycerine In the washing
house of the California Giant Powder
works on the bay shore at Sobrante
shortly aftw noon tenia y killed two men
ami crippled" a third. The fact that
most of the employes were awoy to
lunch accounts for the .small loss of
life. A laborer 200 yards away from
the explosion had his leg o badly
shattered that It was later amputated.
The property loss Is about $15,000. The
cause of the esrlosion is a mystery.
It shook the country for miles around
as though an earthquake had occurred.

PERFECT
Author of World's Fair Mymn.
The selection of the veteran poet
Edmund Clarence Stedmon, to write
the world's fair hymn, seems to have
been a popular choice. When the
question was asked who should be in
vlted to undertake a work of such mo
ment, the name of Mr. Stedman was
suggested from many quarters.
. The poem has now been completed
and set to music by John K. Paine, of
iHarvard university. Permission to
hear this notable composition ts with
held from the public until the opening
day of the exposition, but that an un
usual treat Is in sto.-e for them is as
" sured. ,f ,
Poems by Mr. Steadman hav been
used for musical settings of several of
the most distinguished American com
posers and he is especially gifted in
lyric composition. The song for the
world's fair Is considered his best effort.
