EXPLOSION ON FERRYBOAT; ONE. MAN 15 KILLED Steam Pipe Blows Out as the} Old Passaic Leaves Jer- sey City Pier. BOAT HELPLESS IN RIVER. Passengers in Panic, but Tugs Tow Her Back to Safety. One of the steam pipes leading from the main boiler to the engine room on, the Erle ferrybont Passaic burst with ® loud explosion at 4.30 A. M. to-day as the boat was leaving the Pavonia slip for Twenty-third street, Manhattan. Levi Wilson, assistant engineer, who lived at No. 124 Chestnut atreet, Jersey City, was so badly scalded by escaping steam that he died later in St. Francla | Hospital. For a time the old Passate @rifted helplessly about in the river | while passengers tied life preservers | about their bodies, ready to leap into the water in case the vessel went to the bottom. The Passaic ts one of the oldest boats in the Erie's service. She ts used when travel is light during the early morning hours, in order to save model boats for the heavier work. The Passaic had just rounded her alip | when the explosion came. Engineer John Boyd was hurled across the room through an open door and escaped with slight scalds. The assistant was also knocked down, and when he regained his feet was blinded by the escaping steam. Wilson stumbled about the engine room, unable to find his way to the door. Boyd rushed in for him and carried him | to the deck, where Wilson vecama conscious. The ferry-boat Goshen, Capt. Neison, also of the Erle line, grazed the Passaic as the latter was swung about by the tide, and then Capt. Nelson sounded the distress whistle. This brought the tug Elmira, which came alongside the Pas- gaic, just as the latter was washed against some piling along the shore front. The damage to the Passaic was small. ‘The boat was towed up to Weehawken, | another steam pipe was put in in place of the one that burst, and this after- noon she will be back in service.

He claims that stomach disorders are responsible for most of the Il health of the present generation, and that a sound stomach is absolutely essential to good health, Cooper's headquarters at Riker’s New Store, 2 West Fourteenth street, just off Fifth avenue, are daily visited by many persons tn search of health. The following statement, _ recently mado by Mrs. Katherine Griffin, of 215 West Twenty-second street, New York | City, with reference to her sister, Mrs, | Patrick Kelley, of the same addr will be of interest. Mrs. Griffin sa “My sister suffered from catarr! the stomach for ten years, She could | not digest solid food of any kind, as it invariably caused her terrible pain tm- mediately after eating. In late years she has lived entirely upon Nquids, She became a physical wreck—weak, ner- yous and completely run down, “We often despaired of her life, and entertained little or no hope of her ever being well again, for neither doctors nor any of the many remedies tried gave her relief.
