Stove Explodes Just After Mrs. Joe
Trout had Stepped out of Room,
Probably Thus Saving Herself
From Serious Injury. .1
_
«
Thursday afternoon while Mr^.
Joe Trout was preparing supper
at her home on East Sixth street,
a gas stove she was- using ex-
ploded and gave her a scare.
Christ, but a number of years
ago he was converted under the
preaching of a Methodist min-,
ister at Honey Grove, and from
that time until his death he gave
his life fully and, completely to
the Savior whom he confessed^
He was esteemed by every one
who knew him and knew his
worth, and well did he deserve
dow lights in the room and shak-
ing the house.
A young man who boards with
the family was in another room,
and hearing the noise of the ex-
plosion he rushed into the room.
He saw the escaping gasl burning,
and he at once turned it off and
prevented it from igniting any-
thing else in the room.
Mrs. Trout had been using the
stove for months, and had never
had the least trouble with jt, nor
can she imagine what caused it
to explode.

Much has been said in attacks
upon the policy of the present

the explosion took place, or she
would doubtless have been in-

sion tore the stove all to pieces,

Lisbon, Feb. 1.—King Carlos
of Portugal and Crown Prince
Luiz Phillippe were assassinated
today, and the city is m a state
of uproar.
The king’s second son, Eman-
uel, was slightly wounded, but
Queen Amelia, - who strove to
saye^ the crown
throwing herself upon him, was
unhurt.
A band of men waiting at the
corner of the Prado do Commercio
and* and the Rua do Arsenal suddenly
sprang toward the open carriage
in which the royal family were
driving to the palrce and, level-
ing carbines which they had con-
cealed upon theif persons, fired.
The king and crown prince,
upon whom the attack was di-
rected, were each shot three
times, and they lived onlv long
enough to be carried to the ma-
rine arsenal near by, where they
expired. ' I ‘ .. |
Almost at the first shot the
king fell back on the cushions
dying, and at the same time the
crown prince was seen to halt
rise and then sink back on the
Queen Amelia jumped up
and threw herself toward the
crown prince in an apparent ef-
fort to save his life at the cost
of her own, but the prince al-
ready had received his death
wound. The police guard fired
on the assassins and killed three
of* them.

WERE RETURNING FROM COUNTRY
The royal family were return-
ing from Villa Vicosa, where
they had been sojourning, and
were on their wav from the rail-
road station to the palace. A
strong guard was in attendance,
because of the recent uprising in
the city and the discovery of a
plot
franco and overthrow the mon-
archy. But the band of murderers
had selected the most advan-
tageous spot for the commission
of their crime, for thev were con-
cealed from the eyes of the police
until the carriage ‘had wheeled
into the Prado do Commercio, a
large square.
Before any of the guards were
aware of what was happening,
the assassins leaped to the car-
nage, and instantly a fusillade
of shots rang out.y In a moment
all was terrible confusion, the
king and crown prince being shot
down without the slightest
chance to save themselves.
Guards sprang upon the regi-
cides, the number of whom is
somewhat uncertain, and killed
three of them and captured three
others. One of these edmmitted
suicide after being placed in
prjson. It is charged that one
of the murderers was a Spaniard
named Cordowa.
The bodies of the king and
crown prince were removed from
the marine arsenal in low closed
carriages to the royal palace, the
Praco das Necessidades, the late
residence of the king, escorted
by municipal guards mounted.
