Explosion at Uranger.
Granger Tex.. Sept. 22 Last
night about 8 o'clock J. D. Fow-
ler and A. S. Dunbar, whi." un-
loading a.tank of Beaumo.i oil
from a car standing on the aid-
ing into the large tanks at the
J. W. Walker gin at, this pi me,
went to see how much oil th..y
had in the tanks, and when they
lifted the top off of tho tank the
accumulated gas was ignited,
causing a torriuic explosion tnat
was heard all over town. Fow-
ler and Dunbar were both sev-
erely burned about about the
fapo and neck. ". The oil in tho
tank is still burning. A remark
able feature of the fire is that
there is another large tank about
four feet from the one that is
burning and it is about half full
of oil and has not yet caught
though both are set in the ground.
The extent of the loss can not
be estimated, as the amount of
oil in the tank could not be ascertained.

Dillard Bros,
Mayor Kelly has ordered an-
other election to be held on
Thursday, October 15, 1903, to
determine whether the city of
Bartlett shall tako control of the
public sohool. After the late elec-
tion for this purpose, was held,
there was a difference of opinion
as to who wera qualified voters.
There being a conflict on this
question between articles 4004
and 4000 of- the revisbd statues
of 1895. th,e question was sub-
mitted, to the attorney general,
who ruled that all qualified elec-
tdrs were entitled to participate
instead of only property tax pay-
ors, as provided for in article
4004 under which the recent elec
tion was held. So another eleo
tion will be held on the above
named date, at which all quali-
fied voters will be permitted to
VOt.fe.
