LOUD EXPLOSION AT CITY HALL AS HEATER BLOWS UP Employes of Building Rush to Open Air; Two Are Injured; Third Time for Heater. A gas ,'ieater in a lavatory on the first flexor of the city hall exploded yesterday with such force that the noise and shock were felt in adjoin ing buildings. , Ed Shavlik and Fritz Buck, of the city engineering department, were in the room at the time, but escaped in jury. Sfiavlik was thrown to the floor and his face blackened and aside from a nervous shock he came out of the affair on both feet. v Windows were blown out of the lavatory and the gas heater was wrecked. This is the third explosion which has occurred while lighting this heater. The pilot light was extinguish ed and the neater had filled with gas whtfn Shavlik applied a lighted match. Harry Primeau. deputy city clerk, was the victim of the first explosion and Harry Stroesser, city hall carpen ter, was injured on the occasion of the second explosion, both within the last six months. ' The gas heater was installed in con nection with the recent remodeling of the city hall and had been used for heating .water used in some of the offices. A sign of warning had been posted by the city hall superintendent. The city hall vibrated when the ex plosioncaused employes to rush out into the halls. The noise was heard in The Bee building: Not Bootleg Whisky. The first thought of some of the city hall habitues was that the city commissioners had started the spring campaign with a salute. Another first theory was that a bottle of bootleg whisky being held in the municipal court as evidence had exploded. The surprise of the incident was the ni-rrow escape of Shavlik from injury. He was able to go to a washstand un attended and remove the smudge from his face. Superintendent Wahlstrom of the city hall will put the excitable heater under lock andjey.
