Explosion, loud nnd prolonged, and
then a crash of wood and glass, were
the sounds which broko the usual
silence of the residential portion of
Price street, between North Main and
North Hyde Park avenues yesterday
afternoon. Every person within hear
ing was startled and ninny rushed out
of their residences to find out what had
happened.
This was what had occurred: In the
rear of a two-house block at 1111-U
Price street excavutlons were being
made for a cellar. The rock comes
very close to the surface here and la
rather hard for pick cutting. The
laborers got the assistance of nn ex
mlner to do some blasting. A hole was
drilled, a small piece of dymmlto In
serted, nnd It did not explode. Nor
did a second hole prepared In a simi
lar manner. Hut better success resulted
when the third attempt was made.
A soit of a covering had been put
over the spot to be blasted, but It was
not sulllclent to withstand the shock of
nearly two whole sticks of dynamite,
and most of It went Into the air In
company with nt least half u wagon
toad of shell rock of all sizes, "What
goes tin, must come down," and this
debris did. Most of It fell back upon
the shingle roof, with a sound like an
avalanche. Some fell Into the excuva
, Hon, several pieces fell blocks away
i and one or two pieces, Hying off at a
I tangent, went through some windows.
i The lower part of the dwelling Is not
' occupied, but a family by tho name of
Jones dwell in the upper atory and un
fortunately an aged lady, a member of
the family. Is 111. Those at home had
been warned, but did not expect the
shower of stones or glass breaking. No
one was Injured, hut all were badly
frightened.
