GAS OVEN EXPLOSION
WOMAN'S LUCKY ESCAPE
(By Telegraph.—Press Association.)
DUNEDIN, This Day.
At about 11 o'clock this morning a loud explosion from a house in Morcau Street, St. Kilda, caused some alarm. It was found that a gas oven in which a fowl was cooking had exploded, and that Margaret Thomas, wife of the occupier, had sustained a fractured leg and shock.
The stove was completely wrecked, and considering the force of the explosion in a small kitchenette, she escaped luckily.
