Washington, Pa., July 17. Glycerine
and dynamite were the agents that caused the
death of Samuel Higlcy, an expert torpedo
shooter, near thU city this inoi niug. Early
in the morning l.icley, who had come from
the ML Morris oil field Thursday night,
drove out to the Barrc farm to the magazine
belonging to the Acme Torpedo Company,
where he secured 23 quarts of glycerine.
The explosive was poured into three cans,
end carefully placed in straw on the bottom
of the wacon.
Before leaving the city, however, Bielcr
secured a quantity of dynamite, which he
placed at the foot of the wagon. When last
seen he was driving along the plank east of
"Washington, smoking a cigar. When he
reached a point one mile from this city the
csploshes went off with a terrible report.
IJigley was blown to atoms, pieces of his
body being found a distance of oOO yards
from the scene of the accidenL
A little daughter ot James Hughes was
tilting on a poioh 100 feet distan, and
ccaps I without serious injury. Her dres
was torn from her person and sh received
bruises on the head and breast. The horses
were blown fully 25 feet and instantly
killed. The residences ot Workman
Hughes, Sr., and Lee Minton were com
pletclv wrecked. Seeral other houses
were alo slightly damaged.
At the Coroner's inquest this afternoon
the jury returned a verdict of accidental
death. The most plausible reason assigned
is that the ashes from the unfortunate man's
citrar fell pm a TMpknge of dynamite,
Setting off the whole load.

ATTACKED A TAILOR'S DUMMY.
PIG, CHILD OE ELEPHANT!
One of tho Most llcmnrkable Monstrosities
in Ohio Eer Born.
Wellsyillh O., July 17. This city has
quite a monstrosity. It is a pig eight inches
n length; lias a double set of eyes, feet like
tho hands of a human being, distinct finger
nails, large cars, and the lower part of the
lace like that of a man.
The niot peculiar pait of tho freak is the
upper part of the lace, which looks like that
of an elephant. It lias a long trunk project
ing from the middle of the head, which
turns backward and lays between the two
cars, and at the extremitj there arc two
large holes. The tio-c jnoper has no holes
on either side, and resembles a human nose.
The chin is as pcrlect as a. child at birth
possesses.

Johxstowx, July 17. last evening Patrick
Kelly passed along in front of Adair's Opera

ONE FATALITY YESTERDAY.
"Nothing succeeds like success." Those
who attended a meeting of Braddock Coun
cil, one very hot night about a year ago,
when the matter ot granting right of way
was under discussion with some half dozen
rival companies thirsting for each others'
gore, thought by the time the controversy
would he settled the town would be worn
out bv attrition The members called each
other impolite names, and some made grave
charges, and the President of Council
knocked a pocket Bible and a copy of a
Salvation Army book to pieces on the table,
after he had worn out his gavel, but the
road is built, and the cars will, if no acci
dent intervene, be running to-day, and
friend and foe as a rule of last July
rejoice with exceeding great joy that they
need not, like the people of the "West End
suburbs, wear their lives away in slow horse
cars or wait for hours for steam railway
trains.
A I.ittla Ahead of Timo.
liiglit of way was granted to the Brad
dock and Turtle Creek Kailway in AnguBt,
and it was stipulated that the cars must run
by August, 1891, so that the company ex
pects to be nearly two weeks this side of
the limit. 'Work'besaD April 1, and track
laying was completed June 9. The power
house and machinery were ready for work
the first of the present month, but since
then there has been delay in getting the
cars; The length of the road is at present
two miles, one and one-fourth of which is
double track and paved with Belgian block,
costing the company$30,000. TheThomson
Houston system is used, the same as that
on the Duquesne and Second avenue,
and to be used on the Pittsburg, Allegheny
aud Manchester Railway. The motors are
ot ro-norse power instead ot is, as on the
other roads in this city. The extra power
is provided for the purpose of hauling tail
ors to accommodate the extra travel when
turns are changed at the mills, when 600
men come out at once. There are 400
men who" are thus let off at intervals from
time to time, and the street railway com
pany expects to be able to haul them all
without trouble.
The road begins below Kankin station,
and at present extends to a point above the
Edgar Thomson Steel "Works, the intention
being to extend it to Turtle Creek and
"Wilmerding as soon as evidence can be ob
tained to show that the investment would
not be a losing one.
To Start Operations This Morning.
The company will start three cars this
morning nnd expects to run past any given
point on the road at intervals of eight min
utes. In the power house is an 80-horse
power dyn amo, which is estimated to be
able to propel twice the number of cars
now on hand. The engine is somewhere
between 100 and 125-horse power, and is be
lieved to be more than sufficient for all
needs for some time to come.
Fare for single trip is 5 cents, or 6 tickets
for 25 cents. A monthly ticket for 60 trips
can be had for $2. This is designed es
pecially for mill men who must mak extra
trips, but can be purchased by anyone. It
is not transferable. A family tieket is
sold. 50 trips for ?2. good for any length of
time, and cai be used by any member of the
family purchas'ng it. The motormen, con-
uuctors ana engineers are selected irom the
immediate neighborhood, all except tha
electrician, who is the man lately employed
on the Second avenue lice.
The engine, dynamos and cars were tested
Thursday and jesterday by the Thomson
Houston men, who started the Duquesne
road into operation, and they say it is Eafe
to announce that the carrying of passengers
can be commenced this morning, Rnd Super
intendent G. T. Samets will give the
order.
As soon as it is decided where the bridee
connecting Braddock with Homestead will
be located the Braddock and Turtle Creek
Railway Company will extend its line to
the latter place, but not before, as the com
panydoes not care to run the risk of ex
pending several thousand dollars on an un
certainty. KOBIXSON CRUSOE Everybody has sym
pathized with lonely Kobinson Crusoe. THE
DISPATCH to-morrow will publish a letter
from Fannie B. "Ward written on the Island
where the hero was stranded.
Burled In the Potter's Field.
The remains of M. Scaremont, the Pole
who died at the Southside Hospital on
"Wednesday last, and which have been lying
at Semmelrock's livery Btable since then,
were buried in the potter's field yesterday.
Kotliing is known of Scaremont's life, and
none of his friends if he has any in this
country called to see or claim his body
after death.
Do Ton Want a Tiano?
If you do, now is the time to get one at a
bargain while Hamilton's midsummer sale
is going on. There is absolutely anything
and everything in the piano line there, be
ginning way down at good second-hand
pianos of reliable makes as low as ?50, and
advancing gradually up anywhere above
that price to the finest grand; and here let
us say, it's surprising where all the second
hand instruments come from, an average of
from two to five coming into Hamilton's
every day in exchange for new instruments.
This is the only way they are taken, and
then they accumulate so fast that they must
be sold at the customer's price to keep the
stock down. It's cheaper to buy one at
these prices than to rent one. Go into
Hamilton's and look at them, and get one
at your own price and terms.

Toledo, July 17. The street car strike
still continues. Xot a car has moved since
Tuesday night. A proposition to raise
wages to Si 75 a day of 12 hours was re
jected by the strikers, as also one to give
thein 40 per cent of the gross fares collected.
This atternoon the Jlavor issued a procla
mation to the effect that the blockade of
business must be stopped, and that if the
street car companies attempt to start their
cars they shall be protected to the full
extent of his powers. It is believed to
night that an attempt will be made to start
the cars at C o'clock to-morrow morning.
It is almost certain, if this is done, that a
riot will follow.

I have used your Ccticura Remedies in two
cases where It proved to be successful. The first
as In thec.iseof a ljovaytaraiidalmlf old. His
face and body were in a terrible condition, the
former being completely covered with sores. I
took him to the Alaisena Sulphur Springs, but he
did not Improve any. I was then advised to try
the Cuticuka Remedies, which I did. He toot
one and one-half bottles orctrncntA Resolvent,
m lien his skin was as smooth as could be, and is to
day. I used the Cuticuka on his sores and the
Ccticura bOAr in washing him. He is now 5
years of age and all right. The other case was a
disease of the scalp, winch was cured by washing
with the Cuticuka Soap and nibbing in the Cuti
cuka, one bottle of Cuticuka Resolvent being
used. It is surprising how rapidly a child will im
prove under this treatment.
