Short blurb from a Fire Engineering web site about the explosion: https://www.fireengineering.com/articles/print/volume-45/issue-19/features/picture-show-explosion-at-peoria.html
According to the book “Historic Movie Theatres in Illinois, 1883-1960” by Konrad Schiecke (pub.2006) the Crescent had cages of singing canaries that accompanied the sizeable pipe-organ.
