He jumped overboard to save himself from the flames and for fear that the gasolene tank would explode. He managed to swim ashore. Captiadn Dicksey in naking a state ment about the explosion said that at the time the gasolene tank was being filled from a barrel in the bow of the boat and the explosion was that of the free gasolene in the pipe leading to the tank. He said that the mlate, see ing that the gasolene was not going into the tank fast enough, went to the tank below to investigate, and the explosion occurred shortly afterwards. The loud report was caused from the boat being so tightly closed and it is a mystery why the tank in the boiat was not set on fire.

Hundreds of friends in this city and elsewhere learned with infinite regret yesterday morning that County Attor ney Marsden Bellamy, one of the old est, ablest and best known members ot the local bar, was stricken with paralysis at an early hour yesterday morning at the Summer1 home of his son-in-law, Mr. R. C. DeRosset, on Wrightsville Beach, where he had been spending several days. Shortly after 10 o'clock last night a telephone message from one of the at tending physicians at the DeRosset cottage on the beach stated: "Mr. Bellamy's condition is practically un changed except that he seems to be slowly regaining consciousness. If anything his condition is .a shade bet te." Mr. Bellamy has not been in the very best health for the past several months and only recently returned from Saratoga, N. Y., where he spent several days in rest and appeared to be very much improved. He was1 at his office Thursday afternoon and re marked to a friend that he felt usually well. When he retired Thursday night he was apparently in his usual health and the members of the family and friends were totally unprepared for the shock upon learning that he haa been stricken during the night. His con dition was discovered by Mrs. Bellamy when she went to arouse him about 6 o'clock yesterday morning. He was unconscious when discovered and did not regain consciousness during the day. It was from the first realized that his condition was alarming and rela tives here and at a distance were im mediately notified. There were many anxious inquiries yesterday and last night as to the condition of Mr. Bella my and hundreds and hundreds of friends here and elsewhere throughout the State hope and pray for a speedy restoration to health. Today will be the last chance afford ed at the Crystal Palace to see Its present splendid bill, and, "no doubt, large Saturday audiences will greet the finale of the offering.

It is said to be a splendid picture and the programme today will be fully , up to the usual Saturday offerings. The feature picture is one of those that ap peals to the emotional side of life and its presentation will doubtless be wit nessed by large audiences. Notwith- j standing the threatening weather . yes- terday there were large audiences at the popular theatre. COOK S POLAR C 1 QUESTION OF LAW INVOLVED Interesting Civil Action Started in Su perior Court Yesterday. A suit Involving an interesting point of law was instituted in the Superior Court yesterday and is entitled Chad bourn Sash, Door & Lumber Company against C. E. Parker and wife, Thos. J.

Some of them mounted on pileslof fish nets, others were seat, ed on barrels, and a number squatted on the floor. In addition the crews of the steamers and sailing, vessels In port, the local merchants and fisher men and a gathering of small boys filled the rude hall and listened to what might be termed Commander Peary's first public lecture since li return from thePole. In explaining to the newspaper men what he considered the scientific val ue of Polar exploration, Commander Peary aid he had taken soundings of the sea from Cape Sheridan to the Pole, which supplemented similar da ta taken on. the other side by Nausen and Cagnl. Continuing he argued that North Polar exploration is much more difficult than the same work in the Antarctic. In the Arctic the wlc must all be done in one season, 'while at the South Pole it is not necessary for exploring parties to turn back to Winter quarters. Commander Peary described me celebration of Christmas day, tne Fourth of Julv, Thanksgiving day ana St. Patrick's day in the far North. On Christmas day they had a special din ner and rL distribution of presents brought with them. There were also running races for the members of the party and Eskimo men and women for which prizes were given. Describing the flags he had raised at the Pole, Commander Peary made particular mention of the silk Ameri can flag given him by his- wife la years ago and which he had carried on every one of his Arctic expeditions, leaving a portion at the most norther ly point attained. The remnant oi this flag raised at the pole consistea of one star and a section of the dim field and as part of the red and white stripes. A. G. THORNTON DEAD.
