Camblin was firing up the boiler, in the plant when a cotton tail rabbit which had made its way into the boiler box for an afternoon's siesta, dashed out with it3 fur saturated with oil and on Are. The first race was on as the rabbit, a leaping ball of fire, dashed through the door. But the rabbit, in an effort to put out the flames, slipped under the flooring of the nitro-glycerln plant.

He raced from the plant and had covered a quarter of a mile through some pretty footwork not even seen on college cinder tracks when here came a roaring explosion which shook Bartlesville, four miles away and completely wiped out the plant.
