Pinto Orders Dav Nursery Closed Scarlet Fever Causes Junior League Institution to Be Locked for Two Weeks. The Junior League Day nursery, Twenty-fourth street and St, Mary avenue, waa closed for a period of not less than two weeks by Health rommlsaioner A. S. Pinto, on account of a recurrence of scarlet fever. This Institution was closed Oc tober 10 for 10 days, after two chil dren were stricken with scarlet fever. The building was fumigated at that time and danger waa be lieved to have passed. Since the place was reopened another case was reported and on Wednesday of this week a. fourth case waa observed. An unusual circumstance of the situation Is that William Hamold, 3, the last victim, was taken to the city emergency hospital on Wednes day, the same day on which Phyhs Bernard, 4, was returned from the hospital to her home, and another coincidence Is that the Bernard girl and the Hamold boy live at the same address, 511 South Twenty-fourth street. The second patient, LeRoy East man, la still at the city hospital. Forty-one children were being cared for at the home on Wednesday when the Hamold hoy showed advanced symptoms of the disease. Pinto stated that his department will fumi gate the institution. POSTOFFICE BLAST KILLS THREE MEN Grand Rapids. Mich., Nov. 13.— Three investigations were under way today to determine the cause of the explosion at the federal building here which killed three men and seriously injured 13 other persons. Whether the blast, which wrecked the postal receiving station and burled several postofllee workers un der debris, was caused by a bomb or the Ignition of illuminating gas, re mained a mystery as government in vestigators and the police and cor oner's departments began their in quiries. Police and troops guarded the scene. Dale Newhouse, 19, employe of the E. O. Bulman Manufacturing com pany, who was unloading parcels when the blast came, died today In Butterworth hospital, bringing the death toll to three. Herman Petterseh, 43, postal clerk, and Ernest A. Roth, 30, mail truck driver, succumbed late last night. Of the injured one Is not expected to recover. He Is Edwin V. Anna tyn, 32, postal clerk. The explosion burst hundreds of windows for a block or more in three directions and hurled bits of debris skyward and out from the east side of the building for hundreds of feet.

I FLIGHT TO HAWAII PLANNED BY NAVY Washington, Nov. 13.—Not content with Its successive aerial conquests of the Atalntlc ocean and the globe, America Is to undertake an epochal leap over the Pacific ocean to Hawaii. It was learned at the Navy depart ment today that the dirigible Shenan doah Is to make the flight from Cali fornia to Honolulu early next year In connection with maneuvers of the Pacific fleet. The flight across more than 3,000 miles of open water has the hearty approval of the secretary of the navy, Cjurtis D. Wilbur. Tentative plans toward that end have been discussed by aeronautical experts for many months and a re port on the equipment necessary Is now being prepared for the secre tary. The Pacific fleet Is to assemble off the California coast in February and will probably depart for Honolulu late that month, acting a* a convoy for the aerial greyhound. Navy officers have enthusiastically supported the project. Hear Admiral Moffett, chief of the bureau of aeronautics, being one of the leaders of the movement. Now the Zeppelin Los Angeles has arrived from Germany, It is felt that the last objections to the risking of the Shenandoah have been overcome, as the United States would have a capable substitute should mishap be fall either. Although a definite starting point has not been decided upon, it is un derstood that Sail Diego will be se lected because it has the only mooring mast In California.
