The entrance pavement was torn up as though It were nothing more than crockery. Prior to the explosion, gas was detected, and Holbrook and his wife went to the meter room to investigate. No sooner had he opened the door than the explosion occurred, Both were hurled a considerable distance, the woman being rendered unconscious. Neither Holbrook nor his wife carried a light, and they are unable j to account for the occurrence Many of the tenants were thrown from their feet by the concus sion. A panic ensued, and a number fied to the streets. Houses for blocks around were shaken, and, frightened by the roar, many women rushed out of their homes, believing that an earthquake haa occurred.

And $0 today we. calmly sit And review the fight so fiercely fit In Potlatch week—that awful battle Known as the Riot of Seattle. It's over now, but while it lasted It had Seattle so dodgasted Fussed and flurried and befuddled, And the public mind became so muddled, We had hysterics, rent our clothes, And punched our neighbors on the nose. We're sane once more and now review That time of stress and hullabaloo. * * #8 * Large oaks from little acorns rise, Lightning strikes from cloudless skies, Tempest in tea kettle brews, And riots start from too much booze. ‘Twas so the time of which we speak When we ran amuck in Potlatch week. Then rose the Kernel with a yell, And blamed it all on Cotterill. Josephus Daniels, naval chief, Talked too much and came to grief, And made the battle still more gory When he only meant to Praise Old Glory. xe 8 # Then leapt the mayor into action, And in a minute and a fraction Corked up the bars when we were sloppy, And censored all the Kernel’s “copy.” The Kernel said: “Suppress me? Fudge!” And called upon his favorite judge. The judge pronounced it very sinful To stop a man who had a skinful From getting more, and, though belated, We all got still more spiflicated. He then performed the awesome function Of issuing a restraint injunction. * * % The Kernel printed reams of rot To prove himself a patriot. And so it ended. Now the moral: If e’er you feel inclined to quarrel, Remember this: The riot-inciter Is more to blame than thoughtless fighter.
