Emporium Dynamite
Works Explosion!
Fen Lives Out!
FOUR ROASTED TO DEATH
3reat Loss of Precious Lives and
Much Property.
MI LAST WEEK'A PRESS.
We are called upon to again cliron- j
le another appalling dynamite dis- j
ter, the most serious of the many j
iat have visited Emporium since we ,
■came known as an important powder
■wn.
Yesterday (Wednesday) aftrenoon
jout 3:15, like a flash of lightning the
ixing house, where the death-dealing
compound 1 ' is mixed, went up with
terrific report, hurling to eternity
v ie inmates of the mixing room, four
en, viz: Richard Cavanaugli, aged
32 years, single; liarry George, aged
28, single; Anthony Rosse, aged 26,
single; William T. Shade, aged 45,
married and leaves a wife and three j
children.
With this explosion the frame build
ings commenced to crumble, pinning j
under the timbers of the packing house i
and box factory five other men and
boys. Most of the men succeeded in
•rawling from under the timbers and j
ran for their lives, but the five others :
met u fearful death.
In less than ten minutes from the j
time of the first explosion, the packing j
went, tearing the unfortunate j
i and boys to pieces that were pin \
under the timbers. Up to this !
ting, Wednesday, not a vestige can ;
found of the mixers or packer Mar-
Garvin, the lad aged about 22years
• was known to be pinned under
wrecked building and was beard to
call for help. In the mad and frantic
rush he was left to his fate. The sec
ond explosion blew him into eternity.
ROASTED TO DEATH.
In the box factory were Jacob Frantz,
aged 35, and two young men, Max
Halderman, aged 16, (son of Frank
Halderman), and Glenn Holcomb, aged
'!8 years, (son of Jos. Holcomb). They
were pinned under the wreck and if
not killed by the second explosion,
were roasted to death. The charred
remains of three were recovered yes
terday evening and•the fact that the
above named were employed in that
room these names were agreed upon
About ten o'clock last evening the re
mains of Marvin Garvin were found.
Young Garvin was an active young
man and popular, especially in east
ward, where lie resided with his par
ents. These bodies were burned beyond
recognition, only their trunks remain
ing.
Max Halderman, was a boy greatly
respected by all who knew him; a good
boy at all times and under all circum
stances. He was attentive to religious
instruction, being a member of Hon.
Josiah Howard's Sunday school class.
His parents are bowed down with
grief, as are all the afflicted families.
Glennie Holcomb, aged 18 years, is a
lamentable loss to his parents, who
terribly mourn their son's sad and un
timely death. He was well prepared
for his sudden calling off, we are glad
to learn from his pastor.
Jacob Frantz, whose wife and four
childred reside on West Creek, leaves
his family in a very sad condition. His
youngest child is two years old and
the oldest eight years. Mr. Frantz was
35 years of age, and was a hard work
ing man and well known in this
county. His death is deeply mourned
by a large circle of friends.
The Company's teamster, Jos. Stang,
together with his horses were killed
with the second explosion—no trace of
either being found.
The following is a full and we be
a complete list of those killed,
one of which have been found except
ie three box makers and Garvin.
RICHARD OAVANAUGH,
HARRY GEORGE,
MARVIN GARVIN,
J ACOB FRANTZ,
MAX HALDERMAN,
ANTHONY ROSSE,
WM. T. SHADE,
GLENN HOLCOMB,
JOSEPH STANG, whose home is near
biffalo.
JOSEPH KNARR, the tenth victim died
4:30 to-day.
Anthony Rosse, aged 26, while a
stranger to most of our citizens, is I
highly spoken of. He was a careful i
industrious man and had many friends j
among his associates.
THE INJURED
Mr. C. 1). Everett, of Reading, Pa., j
an agent for a Philadelpnia paint firm j
was sitting in the ofliee, waiting for j
the return of G'has. T. Logan, the Supt., (
who was at the upper end of the valley. I
When the shock came Mr. Everett was
thrown through the building but quick- j
ly picked himself up, although terribly i
cut and bruised, ho made for a safer j
place, forgetting his horse and buggy
hitched near the office. Blood
streaming down his face, lie looked as
though he had passed through a thresh- j
ing machine as we met him walking j
towards Emporium. Mr. Helliker
took him into his carriage and landed
him at Warner House, where he pa-j
tiently awaited Dr. Bardie 11, who was
caring for the more seriously injured.
Mr. Everett was not so good looking i
after he had two or three yards of
plaster pasted on his head and face,
yet he knows what a dynamite explos
ion means.
Joseph Knarr, employed in the pack
ing room, was injured internally. He
is in a very serious condition. Mr. .
Knarr was the most seriously injured
and died today at 4:30. He leaves a
wife and three children. Mr. Knarr
carried an insurance of $3,000, but it is j
doubtfull if it will stand. We only '
hope the Woodmen will overlook the
two days at powder packing and pass
his claim.
Harry Leggett, cut about face.
Peter Murry, face, back and arms se
-1 verely cut.
Jay Nangle, face and head cut.
i W. W. Knickerbocker, who was in
I the shell store house when the explo- ,
; sioii took place, found himself under
j the timber of the crumbling structure.
I lie crawled out and :it once went to !
| work rigging upa telephone. His face
j was bruised and scratched.
A. Pearson, packer, cut over left eye. j
I Howard Dodge, dipper, caught be-
I tween dipping screen and roof; face, i
j bac'i and arms badly cut.
SEARCH FM>R BODIES.
A PRESS reporter visited the scene of
I the exposion to-day and ascertained
i that men were searching on the liill
! sides for remains of any of the unfor
tu nates. Portions of the bodies of two
men, one supposed to be W. T. Shade,
was found on the west hill. They were
taken to Egau's undertaking rooms at
i noon to-day.
l The injured were given prompt at
i mention. Drs. Smith and Heilman
] hastened to the scene of the explosion,
j while Drs. Bardwell and Falk were
. kept busy at their offices.
FU NERAL ARRAN'GKMENTS.
We have made an effort to ascertain
j the arrangements for the funeral ser-
I vices, but thus far have only learned
that funeral services over the remains
I of Max Halderman, aged 10 years, will
■ be held at the family residence, East
: Fifth street, Friday morning at 10
j o'clock. Rev. O. S. Metzler, Pastor of
| Methodist Episcopal Church and Rev.
J. M. Robertson, Rector of Emmanuel
Episcopal Church will officiate.
We understand the funeral of Gleunie
Ilolcomb will take place on Saturday,
at 2 o'clock, p. m., possibly services i
will be held at Free Methodist Church.
Interment in Rich Valley cemetery.
The funeral of Mr. Frantz, will be |
held from the Free Methodist Church, ;
Friday at 2 p. m.
THE DAMAGES.
The Emporium Powder Company,
while they feel deeply the sad incidents '
connected with the explosion, are do
ing everything within their power to
relieve the afflicted families of their
late employees. The Company's loss
is large, yet they will at once commence
rebuilding the wrecked buildings and
will erect now and more substantial
structures in place of those burned.
About fifteen buildings were either
fired or crushed.

EMPORIUM, PA., THURSDAY, JULY 6, 1905.
CAVANAUGH.
Richard Cavanaugh, aged 32 years,
another of the victims of the mixing
house, has resided here all his life and
will be remembered as "Zipp." He
was the fourth living child of a large
family of ten children, viz: John,
Malachi, Thomas, Andrew, James,
Michael, Frank, Mary, Maggie, Ella—
all all residing here except Malachi,
who has been engaged in business at
Allegheny City for a number of years.
Michael is located at Westboro, Wis.,
Mary, who is married to Mr. Kahley,
resides at Johnsonburg. All were here
during the sadness except Michael,
including the aged father, Michael
Civanaugh, who resides at the old
homestead oil South Broad street. De
ceased was a quiet unassuming young
man, steady and industrious; very do
mestic in his habits. With his asso
ciates he was very popular. Ilis un
timely death was a great blow not only
to the family but the entire commun
ity. He was one of the charter mem- j
bers of Hamilton Hose Company and
served as foreman in 1903, remaining
active today of his death and popular
with all flramen of the entire depart- I
ment. His company attended the I
burial of the remains, unknown, on |
Saturday morning at ten o'clock.
SHADE.
Of the large number losing their j
live* in the recent explosion, none will
be more sadly missed than W. T. |
Shade, the foreman of the mixing
room. He was born in Clinton county
forty-five years ago. Eight years ago
he was married to Miss Minnie Speak
er, of Brookville. Two children were
born to them— Wilhelmina and Lillian,
aged six and two years respectively.
Mr. Shade was a kind husband, affec
tionate father and good citizen, highly
esteemed by all classes. - While living
atjSinnamahoning he united with the
Methodist Church and has always ex
emplified the traits of a true Christian.
Of a sunny disposition, he gave bright
ness and cheer to every company and
thus made himself popular with his
friends.
GEORGE.
Harry George, aged 31 years, was
one of the four man employed in the
mixing room, where the first explos
ion took place. Nothing was found of
him. George has resided here for six
years, making his home at Commercial
Hotel this place. Mr. Murphy speaks
well of the young man. His home was
originally at Wapwallopen, Luzerne
county. James P. George, a brother,
i came here hoping to identify at least
a part of his remains, but nothing
| could be found.
STANG,
j Joseph J. Stang, aged 31 years, who
I was driving the horse, owned by fore
j man Dinniny, when he was blown to
j pieces. Not a trace of him was found,
| its far as known. Stang came here
| from Buffalo about three years ago
and has worked in the different powder
factories. He leaves three brothers
and four sisters. One of his brothers,
! Geo. C. Stang, and brothec-in-law,
j John Stiorck, of Buffalo, arrived in Em
j }K>rium and attended the several ser-
I vices.

Demand for Press.
The demand for last week's PUESS
was eo great that our special edition
was kll sold within a few hours. Be
'ng compelled to issue a legal sheet
we have deemed it advisable to include
the account of the terrible affliction to
our many friends. We have a limited
supply of this issue, so all who desire

Summer Colds.
Summer Colds, Hay Fever, .'lose
Catarrh and Influenza might be class
ed as Summer Grip and are most dis
tressing and exasperating, especially
for those who cannot indulge in an
ocean voyage or a trip to the moun
tains. The suffering is keen and acute
for the stav-at-homos.
Dr. Humphreys' Specific "Seventy
seven" has earned a well deserved
reputation as a cure. The use of "77"
stops the sneezing, relieves the asth
matic conditiou, soothes and heals the
mucus membrane; the running from

is restored. At drug stores 25c, or

AFTERNOON (i .ME.
The game in the afternoon between
Eldred and Emporium, was one of the
best, barring one or two instances,that
has been played here this season.
The score up to the fifth inning Rtood
1 to 0 in Emporium's favor, when one
of the Eldred boys knocked a two bag
} ger which was lost in the deep grass,
j and succeeded in making it a home
| run, thus tieing the score and giving
I them the first and only run of the
! game. Overturf was in the box for
I Emporium and pitched a very steady
| and good game. In fact the boys all
1 played the game as it should be played
J and ought to receive encouragement
i from our citizens.
The Eldred boys are all gentlemen
; and know how to play ball and
with the exception of one or two
costly errors, would have held our team
pretty even. The score was 7to 1.
Umpire Clarke officiated and his decis
ions were fair and impartial, which
made the game devoid of .all unpleas
antness. The attendance was very
large. Score:

To cure a cold when you have no
cough—to euro a cough when you have
no cold—to cure yourself when you have
both—take Kennedy's Laxative Honey
and Tar. The new idea, the original
Laxative Cough Syrup. It contains no
opiates and is best for coughs, colds,
croup, whooping cough, etc. Pleasant
to the taste and equally good for child or
adult. Remember the name "Kennedy's"
and see that the red clover blossom and
the honey bee is on the bottle. Ken
nedy's Laxative Honey and Tar is the
original Laxativo Cough Syrup. Take
no other. Sold by R. C. Dodson.
