Dover, Del., Dec. 3.—With a rip and a roar that shook the state almost from end to end a naphtha tank car on a southbound freight train on the Delaware division of the Pennsylvania railroad exploded in Greenwood, twentyfive miles south of here. So violent was the explosion and so widespread wna the distribution of the volatile and inflammable fluid with which the car was filled that two persons were killed, seventeen injured and ten buildings, including the railroad station, a hotel and a church, were destroyed or damaged.One Dollar—John Clark, James Murphy, William Murphy, Frank Wulshefskl.

Coats For Children Though the prayers became more and more fervent and the calls for help more urgent, the old actor's heart beat slower and slower, and,at last, with his head burled on his arms and resting on a table where he bad swept a place clear from half emptied glasses, his heart finally ceased to beat.

Fifteen cars were wrecked and three reduced to ashes. For a time it seemed as though the entire town would be destroyed by concussion and the fiery torrent of naphtha poured upon it. Thompson had been ill for several days. He complained of a pain about his heart, but yielded to the entreaties of his family that he leave it to Christian Science, of which they are devout followers, to effect a cure rather than appeal to a regular physician. With a blinding snowstorm raging, men, women and children were forced to flee from dismantled and burning homes into the streets and seek shelter wherever they could. School children, satchels in hand, were stricken down by the violence of the explosion, and an infant perished In the arms of its mother from the terrific shock. Not since the destructive explosion in the powder mills of the Duponts, near Wilmington, several years ago, has Delaware experienced such a death dealing and destructive blaBt. For many miles the explosion was felt, and many thought the state was in the grasp of an earthquake. JAMES N. TYNER, INDICTED P0ST0FFICE OFFICIAL James Noble Tyner, recently indicted in Washington for alleged conspiracy to defraud, the government, was for nearly thirty-live years prominent In the government service. His alleged wrongdoing occurred when he was assistant attorney general for the postofiice department. He was a member of congress from Indiana from 18fl9 to 1875 and served as postmaster general In Grant*? cabinet during the last year of the latter's term. They induced him to attend a meeting in West Twenty-third street last night, where special prayers were offered for his recovery.

Although badly composed, the wounds are so plain to the medical examiner that he didn't hesitate to say that murder had been done with a hammer. One such as would have inflicted the blows was found in the shed. Several hairs were found clinging to it. A search for Charles Bonier, who moved into the house of Frehrs on the day of their disappearance, 13 being made by the police. Louise Lind- Bonier's housekeeper, was arimmediately after the discovery of the bodies. Stricken In the Street. All Communication Cut Off. The trio started out aud happily faced the snow and cold. They crossed Twenty-third street at First avenue, and atlll the prayers which bad been so earnestly offered for him seemed to have accomplished their purpose. But whether it was because of the effort he had to make in facing the storm or some other cause, a falntness came upon him. It passed off after a moment, and the three continued their walk down First avenue, but at Sixteenth street the old man staggered and almost fell to the sidewalk. The telephone and telegraph wires ■were broken, and communication with other towns was impossible. As soon aa possible a locomotive was sent back to Seaford, and It returned with n special train carrying five physicians from Harrington. While the physicians were looking after the Injured citizens and trainmen a party of rescuers was at work around the wrecked train, and another party directed Its efforts to the burned buildings.

Dover, Del., Dec. 3.—With a rip and a roar that shook the state almost from end to end a naphtha tank car on a southbound freight train on the Delaware division of the Pennsylvania railroad exploded in Greenwood, twentyfive miles south of here. So violent was the explosion and so widespread wna the distribution of the volatile and inflammable fluid with which the car was filled that two persons were killed, seventeen injured and ten buildings, including the railroad station, a hotel and a church, were destroyed or damaged.One Dollar—John Clark, James Murphy, William Murphy, Frank Wulshefskl.

Coats For Children Though the prayers became more and more fervent and the calls for help more urgent, the old actor's heart beat slower and slower, and,at last, with his head burled on his arms and resting on a table where he bad swept a place clear from half emptied glasses, his heart finally ceased to beat.

Fifteen cars were wrecked and three reduced to ashes. For a time it seemed as though the entire town would be destroyed by concussion and the fiery torrent of naphtha poured upon it. Thompson had been ill for several days. He complained of a pain about his heart, but yielded to the entreaties of his family that he leave it to Christian Science, of which they are devout followers, to effect a cure rather than appeal to a regular physician. With a blinding snowstorm raging, men, women and children were forced to flee from dismantled and burning homes into the streets and seek shelter wherever they could. School children, satchels in hand, were stricken down by the violence of the explosion, and an infant perished In the arms of its mother from the terrific shock. Not since the destructive explosion in the powder mills of the Duponts, near Wilmington, several years ago, has Delaware experienced such a death dealing and destructive blaBt. For many miles the explosion was felt, and many thought the state was in the grasp of an earthquake. JAMES N.

Buffalo, Dec. 3.—|The mystery of tha disappearance of Frank Frehr and wife from their home, 339 Jefferson street, was cleared away this morning, when the police found their bodies buried beneath a shed in the yard of their house The sHulIs of both were crushad. Although badly composed, the wounds are so plain to the medical examiner that he didn't hesitate to say that murder had been done with a hammer. One such as would have inflicted the blows was found in the shed. Several hairs were found clinging to it. A search for Charles Bonier, who moved into the house of Frehrs on the day of their disappearance, 13 being made by the police. Louise Lind- Bonier's housekeeper, was arimmediately after the discovery of the bodies. Stricken In the Street. All Communication Cut Off. The trio started out aud happily faced the snow and cold. They crossed Twenty-third street at First avenue, and atlll the prayers which bad been so earnestly offered for him seemed to have accomplished their purpose. But whether it was because of the effort he had to make in facing the storm or some other cause, a falntness came upon him. It passed off after a moment, and the three continued their walk down First avenue, but at Sixteenth street the old man staggered and almost fell to the sidewalk. The telephone and telegraph wires ■were broken, and communication with other towns was impossible. As soon aa possible a locomotive was sent back to Seaford, and It returned with n special train carrying five physicians from Harrington. While the physicians were looking after the Injured citizens and trainmen a party of rescuers was at work around the wrecked train, and another party directed Its efforts to the burned buildings.
