Cleveland Gas Plant Blast Toll Tops 112 Dead

Weary search crews probed charred debris of a 50 block east Cleveland area after a gas plant explosion turned the neighborhood into a crematory. Police and Red Cross reports warned the final death toll could reach about 150 with hundreds wounded and thousands left homeless. City officials estimated $10 million in damage as evacuees slowly returned home and officials investigated for arson.

Pictured Fighting French general and arrival at Congress

A fragment from a horizon page shows a caption featuring a French general and an arrival at the House of Congress. It includes a miscellany of crossword like clues and partial entries covering a range of words from light to heavy topics. The garbled text references a British or French context, with scattered abbreviations and catalog-like entries.
