is soon told. Mrs. Smith, of Centre
street, London West, was assisting Mrs.
Slater, wife of William Slater, the well. . -
known tailor, on the "V" formed by the
convergenoe of Park avenue and Rich-
mond iatreeti whose hours adjoins the
•tailor shop. Being in a hurry she went
to stimulate the fire with a five -gallon
can of coal oil. The flames sprang up
like a flash, igniting the oil in the can
and a terrific explosion followed. All
who heard the rep.rt oompare it to the
discharge of a heavy piece of artillery.
The can was dined as if a locom-
otive had run over it by the force of the
explosion, and the showers of oil satur-
ated Mrs. Smith's clothing and set it on
fire. One eye witness states that she
was knocked down by the force of the
explosion, and lay on the floor for the
