Han&on Is not Expected to Live. A boiler explosion at Viento, yesterday morning, injured eight men. Two of the mill men received broken legs, and a half dozen others were severe ly bruised and scalded. Hanson, with a broken leg and severe scalds is serious ly injured and may not recover. The accident happened a few minutes before 7 o'clock, just as the men were waiting for the whistle to blow. ; v Those injured are : - HANSEN, broken leg and badly scalded (injuries may prove fatal). . F. LINK, broken.leg and badly scald ed. J. BADER, brtiised and scalded. CHARLES WALKER, bruised and scalded. FRED PAUL, scalded. WILLIAM CARNETT, bruised on the chest, possibly hurt internally. Two other men, names not attainable, were scalded. The injured men were all new em ployes and were the only hands collect ed about the boiler, the old men not being in the habit of gathering there. The explosion occurred about 10 min utes to 7. Engineer- Larson had just stepped from the boiler room'-as the accident happened, and escaped any injury. The boiler was carried over freight cars for 800 feet and alighted bottom side up. What caused the accident no one knows. Word was immediately sent to Manager Charlie Early at Hood River, who, with Drs. Brosius and Dumble left on No. 5 for Viento, arriving but a short time after the accident. Those of the injured who suffered most were tak en on to Portland, Dr. Dumble accom panying them to St. Vincent's hospital. Every effort was made by the physi cians to relieve the pain of the men while they were being taken to Port land. In Hansen's case anesthetics had to be used, owing to the laceration of his foot. In the hospital: Dr. Dumble, who was left in sole charge by Dr. Bro sious, at Troutdale, called in Dr. Rockey. Hanson's foot was amputated and the others' wounds dressed as soon as possi ble. When the surgeons finally took stock of the injuries they felt that they were reasonably sure that none would die. Two of the men will leave the hos pital within a day or so. Superintendent Early places the loss to the mill at $2000, with no insurance. He was not present at the time of the accident, and only stopped long enough on the way to Portland to pick up the injured. "It is impossible for me to tell how or why the explosion took place," he said this morning. "As to the dam age I can only make an approximation. The mill was valued at $5000 and there was no fire, so that the yards are intact. I judge that $2000 would ,cover the toss. C. Larson, the. engineer, it an old and trusted employe. The two boilers were connected, with a check valve between, the same pressure is maintained in each, and each has a safety valve." At 3 p. m. it was said at St. Vincent's hospital that J. Hansen was very low. The amputation of his leg proved a se vere shock to bis systam, and it is feared he will not recover, though he has a fighting chance. His burns and the fracture of the other leg' hinder his chances very much. The others are do ing well. Keuioval of Depot Talked Of. It is currently reported on the streets that the 0. R. & N. Company will move their depot four blocks west, from its present site to a location at the foot of Irving street. Nothing definite could be learned about the matter from local railroad officials. It is reported though that Manager Mohlor nill be here next week from Portland to decide the mat ter. The present location it too cramped and with a warehouse on each side the track it is inconvenient. The company expects to remodel the bridge east of depot this year. The reverse curve will be taken out and the track in front of the depot extended a hundred feet to ward the Columbia. If this is done there will be plenty of room for the de pot at the present location. Several real estate deals have already been made in expectation of removal of the depot . Family Lose Everything by Fire The residence of Amos Perkins, living on John Leland Henderson's farm at White Salmon, was burned last night. Not a thing was saved, the family barely escaping with their night clothes. The family consists of Mr. and Mrs. Perkins and three small children and the father of Mr. Perkins. The residence was val ued at $700 with $250 insurance. Mr. Henderson heard of the loss tbis morn ing and immediately sent over a box of supplies and clothing for the unfortu nate people. In mailing the Glaciers for the two free delivery routes, last week, our mail ing clerk dropped a make-up rule which was lost in the bundle of papers. If the subscriber who found the rule in his pa per will kindly return it to the Glacier he will confer a great favor on the make-up man, who has been outot sorts ever since he lost his rule. Mrs. H.

Four weeks ago next Thursday Orion Kinersly broke out with smallpox and was quarantined at his residence on 5th street.
