NICHOLS-, Sec'y: Brigham Menaced By Fire Following Gas Explosion; Man Burned, May Be Fatal Elmer Berg1, 20 year3 old, is burned almost beyond hope of recovery, while Z, K. Cornia, IS, sustained fearful burns about the arms and hands as the result of a fire at tho Morgan Tire Service and Repair company at Brig ham, which occurred at 10:30 o'clock today when a fifty-gallon tank of high proof gasoline exploded. The gasoline had been delivered to the repair, shop Saturday and until this morning, sat at the .rear of the building, exposed to sun's' rays. Berg brought It to the shop this morning and started to remove the plug. At the first twist he noticed that tho tank was extremely hot, and attempted to tighten the plug fearing an explo sion. Before he had replaced the plug, the explosion came. Flaming- Torch Drenched with burning gasoline, Berg ran from the shop and down Main street, emitting screanis of mor tal agony. Dr. A. D. Cooley threw tho man to the sidewalk and ripped the burning garments from his body be fore Berg had been burned ullve. sus taining burns on his hands. The suffering man was rushed to a hotel, where his wounds aro being treated. Not more than half a minute- fol lowing the explosion, the tiro repair shop was a mass of flames. Before the city fire department could control the blaze, it had spread to an adjoining building occupied by the Rockwood novelty store which was totally de stroyed by the flames. The Boothe hotel, directly north of the building in which the explosion occurred, was saved from total destruction because of the alleyway between the two build ings. Bargpron and Brickmoro real estate offices. ' ajolnlng the Rockwood stote, were badly damaged by the flames and It was only by superhuman ef forts that tho Brigham branch of the Chccsman Automobile company of Ogden was saved. For a time it seemed that the entire buslncs district of Brigham was doomed. Two in Shop Berg and Cornia were the only oc cupants of the tire repair shop when the explosion occurred.

CSS IHltfO 1333 Story Wins Compassion jobs For Erring Lads, i Though no sound came from two defendants in a petit larceny trial at. the city court this morning, the casej was one of the most pathetic recorded i in the city for a long time. It was not a story of a girl gone wrong, nor did it deal In any way with the fairer sex. One of the defendants was an orphan, not quite IS years old. Both of the boys who were before the court were deaf and dumb. Arbor Weaver of Chicago, nearly 19, and Thaddlus Chabroskl of Des Moines wero tho defendants. They had departed from tho east to seek work. Both held union cards, one as a carpenter, the other as a boiler-maker. Becauso of their af fliction, they could not secure work, although Chabrovski finally succeed ed in getting a job at the Globe mills. Both boys could not secure work, however, and unwilling to separate, admitted that they stole a quantity of Experts and City Officials to Look Over Possibilities at Artesian Park To determine the feasibility of pumping water from the artesian wells In Ogden canyon to gain increase over i the natural flow, Mayor Francis, City j Engineer Joseph M. Tracy and City Commissioners Chris Flygarc and J. jit. Ward, Fred W. Taylor, expert of the Amalagamted Sugar company, and J. H. Waugh. engineer for the Globe Grain and Milling company, will make an investigation at;Artesian park dur ing this week. "The trip is to bo made to deter mine the advisability of installing the pumps, and, to make a test as to how much water could be obtained .obi the basin by pumping." Mayor Fnn cis said. "tl is the theory of Mr. Taylor that Ogden valey Is ,l basin in which water is held impervious : by a strata, in other words, :t is I a reservoir, and at preseot wo got just the water that Is foiv.ed to "he '.surface bv back nressure. fnnsmuch as the pressure Is decreasing cw and there wiil be a muh reJiu--jd f cw I in the future, by pumping, it 1s be llleved an Inexhaustible flo.v may bo ; made available. "If this theory be true, O-den has but to Install a comparative-r smill . pumping plant, for the lift wojld i ot ! be great, and by so dolnj- oiio cf the i present -water problems of Ogden would be solved without the expend iture of a considerable sum of money. "L.nst season there was a shortage of water to the extent that peoplo hd to b put under restrictions as early aa May 1, and later In the season were 'allowed to sprinkle lawns only oery two days. By conserving tho artesian 'supply at this time It la indicated that the city will not be compelled to put tho stringent rules In effect rhls sum mer. "Eventually, however, to meet the growing demand, larger sources of supply must be obtained. Jarger pipe lines must bo Installed to carry the water to the l'eservoira and a larger distribution system must bo construct ed In the city. "Looking to these improvements the city administration Is prcpailn?r to Issue a call for a bond election. When the water bonds are submitted to tho taxpayers they will also be aakod to authorize bonds for a municipal elec tric lighting plant, an athletic field, paving, sidewalks and other Improvements." uu Poison for Hoppers to Be Distributed To carry on a war against grass hoppers, free distribution of white ar-j senic will be made by county author!-' ties and the poison can be obtained in the basement of the Utah National bank building, according to an an nouncement made this morning by C.

Theodore Mark. 17 year old son of Paul Mark of this city, acted as in terpreter for the defendants. ( Tho spectators at the court heard no wordi I from the defendants, but through tho expressive gesticulations, the flashing fingers, and the play of expressions on tho faces of the two boys who had erred, morbid Interest turned to com passion. The lads realized their mis take and said that If given an oppor tunity to procure work they would make reparation to the boys from whom they took the clothing. Tears flowed from the ej'cs of the boys when Judge Roberts, through tho Interpreter, told them of tho mistake which they had made in attempting' to steal. They were given a 10-day suspended sentence and Motorcycle Officer II. B. Elam. was given Instruc tions to take the boys under his charge and procure work for them.

Ueforo tho animal could make another i ush, Mr. Stoddard said he climbed out on the running board and drove the car from this position. In the meantime, Mr. Stoddard said the second animal kept jumpincr and snapping at tho headlights of the oar and he zigzagged In his course In an attempt to run him down.

For Oood Slwe6 , H 2356 Washington Avenue Ogdcn VM ORGANIZED PLAY TO START HERE I THURSDAY AND CONTINUE THROUGH U JULY; DEMONSTRATIONS IN PARKS "The play program of the leaders in child, welfare has changed materially since tho adoption of the kindergarten methods in American school work," said John Edward Carver this morn ing in regard to the securing of Miss Josephine Randall for one month for Ogden play work. "The educators have learned how valuable supervised and pre-planned play can be as an educational factor. Then, too, there are well-needed les sons that tho child learns in super vised play that are fundamental in oharacter. For instance, the child is i taught to give up for tho benefit of the winning and also to be a 'good! loser.' The child that plajs alone thinks only of themselves, tho child playing in proper supervision learns, to give up their desires for others and! they are mucn more agrceaDie as cim dren. but as grown-ups,-too. This les son alono Is worth the effort. "The national association that is employing Miss Randall was the pio neer in public children's play. When they commenced to advocate play grounds they were laughed at, but af ter over twenty years they have de veloped playgrounds in almost all American cities. We would not have the splendid apparatus playgrounds in Ogden were it not for the sentiment they have been creating through tho years. Apparatus play develops tho! body and grass or organized play de velops the character and will. As the child plays so the child will be in mature ears. A selfish playing child J will be a self-centered adulL A child i that plays alono will be a solitary i adult. These, with the advancement of the mind are the aims of organized grass play. "The possibilities of making strong men and women through tne ngnt use of leisure time are limitless. Salt Lake has an excellent work for the little ones. In Liberty park thero are six trained play supervisors in at tendance. Two of these are men. Music, drama and 'reading are given place in their work. Last summer wo visited Pioneer park to see their music work among the west side children. A young woman was giving two hours a day to leading an orchestra com-J posed of all who would come and she had a large number of children with I all kinds of Instruments and was- do-' ing, considering conditions, good work.) Rochester haa made a success of the "wandering story teller." Story tell ers meet groups of children in shadyf places and tell a half hour's historic or other tale. They have a daily; schedule and always find the audience' ready and waiting. I mention these, cases to show what the poople areJ doing who arc thinking for tho youth of the day. The objection s made' that the men and women of today had ' and needed none of this. Well, the chlldron are not growing up under the conditions their parents' had. The par- ents are very different from those" of' thirty years ago and the town andi home Is different, too. The child of today has a very different environ- Sl Imont and for that environment there HH must be new aids. HH "In Ogden Miss Randall will only 01 attempt organized, grass play. There HH will be no conflict with any other child work for no others are doing this tHH work. She will have plans mado to BH have something for the children to do 'KH every minute. Commencing Thursday . JH she will give a course to all who dc- ' sire it In organized play. It will be Hl .valuable for Sunday school workers Hl 'and all who have anything to do with H j children.
