An Ohio paper credits John H. Thomas,
one of the millionaire candidates for the
Ohio Senatorship, with the declaration
that If I could have the vote necessary
not pay the 25 cents." This means one of
two things—either that he would have a
friend pay the 25 cents for him, or else he
is doitig some big lying about a small
amount of money.
A n explosion of an ammonia pipe in a
big Newark. Xew Jersey, brewery last
Monday afternoon let loose a flood of beer
that flowed like a river. Twelve thousand
barrels flooded the streets, and the smell
of ammonia was so strong that the people
could not enter the ruined building until
two hours ofter the explosion.

way to prevent the spread of fire, tho only
things in Boston which seem to have been
„of any value were the iron shutters on the

out until the firemen could concentrate at
it and stop the spread of the flames. Just
plain old iron shutters!

THE Philadelphia City Item of recent

will boss this job."
That "tho people should boss the job'
would seem the one thing necessary in re
gard to tho next Republican nomination
for Governor, —Although tho Republican
majority in the State is largo yet it wou'd
be unsafe to force an unpopular candidate on
the party. The best and most worth, can
didate should be our next nominee for
Governor.

TIIK death of Jefferson Davis lias called
out a pretty general expression of sorrow
in the South. To this there could be no
exception taken, if confined within proper
limits. The Northern people do not care
what opinion the Southern people hold of
Davis us a man, but when they justify his
acts and his '"lost cause" then it becomes
as offensive to the North as it is injurious
to the beat interests of the South.
As an example ol the excess of sympa
thy in the South for Davis, the proclama
tion of Governor of North Carolina leads all
the others we have yet seen in its extrava
gant boldness.
The following is his proclamation:
WHKRK.VS, Aluiightv God, by His provi
dence. hath removed from this world the
trusted leader of tlio people of the State of
North Carolina in the four darkest years of
its history, and
Whereas, Our entire people regard his
memory with teelings of the highest re
spect. esteem and affection, now for the
purpose of manifesting their appreciation
of his exalted chaarcter and distinguished
services, I enjoin upon the people of this
State, laying aside all business, to assem
ble themselves at their respective places of
worship at the time to be appointed for the
funeral bv Mrs. Davis, and to join in serv
ices suitable to the sad occasion.
Another Johnstown Horror.
Joil XBTOWK, Pa., Dec. 11.—As tlio per
formance of the Uncle Tom's Cabin troupe
was drawing to an end in the Main Street
Opera house last night, the fire-bell was
rung, causing a fnntic scramble for thi
exit. There were 50u or 600 men. women
and children in the hall, and to Gain
the street it was necessary to pa.s
down a narrow walled up staircase
and through a very narrow doo. Thv. ex
cited people from the street rushed into
the door from the outside, and in the jam
many people were crushed. It was neces
sary to turn the hose on the crowd at the
door before the rescuers could get at the
deail and wounded.
When the crowd was driven away the
following persons were found dead npon

The Nitro-Glycerine Horror.
On Tuesday morning of this week James
0. Wood and William Madill drove out to
the store-house of This Bntler Torpedo Co..
located on the Matthew Brown farm, about
a mile south of Butler, to get a 60-qnart
shot for the B. Forst Oil Co., at Myoma,
a 10-quart shot for the McCalmont Oil Co.,
and a 6-quart shot for the Munhall well. .
They reached the magazine, which is lo
cated at the foot of a small bank of earth. |
about 9 o'clock, and had carried almost all
the supply they needed from the magazine
to the wagon, which stood in the field
about fifty feet distant, when they dis
covered that they had forgotten some
weights, and sent a boy named Hutchison
back to Bntler for them with a buggy.
Then they continued their work until the
explosion—an explosion that meant one of
1 those horrors peculiar to the oil country
occurred.
When the neighbors arrived at the scene,
no trace of the two men could be seen.
They had apparently disappeared from the
face'of the earth. Of the spring wagon, in
which part of the stuff had been loaded, a
part of one iron axle-tree was lying near,
and that alone. One of the horses was cut
to pieces and the other was lying dead, as
though struck by lightning
A pan-shaped hole, about 8 feet wide and
4 feet (I6ep, marked the spot where the
wagon stood, and a smaller hole between
it and the magazine indicated that one can
standing by itself had exploded there.
The neighbors and the people ot Butler
who went to the scene, immediately began
to search for the remains of the two men.
The right shoulder and right arm ot a
human being, excepting tnefingers, in
one piece, was found about 100 yards to the
southeast,' and this was identified as being
gturt. of Mr. Jwd bf a small of red
er right shoulder was found about 100 yards
due South from the hole, which of course
belonged to Mr. Madill. An entire scalp
was found, which was identified as belong
ing to Wood. It was taken ofi as cleanly
as though done with a razor Some small
pieces of Madill's scalp were also found.
AH the other parts of the two men—the
heads, arms, bodies and legs were in atoms,
and which pile to put them in when found
was mere guesswork. I ndertaker Koessing
took out two pine boxes, and what was
thought to belong to belong to each man
was placed in the separate boxes. It was
a sight to make anyone shudder.
What caused tho explosion will never be
known. One of tho men may have dropped
one can upon another, or the horses may
have backed. Men who handle nitro
eivcerine often drop a can without an ex
plosion following, but if the can should
strike a stone, and particularly if a sniear
ing of the stuff was on the outside of the
can, an explosion would likely follow.
When the stuff is loaded in a spring wagon
each can is wrapped in a blanket, and the
driver is not ovei particular as to how he
remarkable feature of this accident
or horror, or whatever you may call it, is
that while the explosion of this mtro
glycerine—6o to 80 quarts—wrecked the
magazine, tore the roof off of it, and drop
ped the two-inch plank that composed its
ceiling down upon cans containing 300
quarts of the stuff with such force as to in
dent the cans and kn«ck them over, the
stuff in the magazine did not explode.
THK DEAD.
Mr. Wood came to this town with his
family, a wife and two children, some
month* ago, and was living in the Schultz
house on S. Washington St. He had lot
lowed the oil country for fifteen years, was
born in Cauada, and had no relatives liv
ing. He was a partner of Mr. O. M. Russe 1
in the torpedo business, and Mr. Russell
speaks of him in the highest terms. His
wife, who is said to bo verj- much of a lady,
was bom in MeConnellsville, Oneida Co.,
>\ Y., and has a half-brother living there.
The other two members of the family are a
little boy of five years and a baby girl ot
six months. *
Mr. Madill was a single man and was a
native of Ontario, Canada. i«e came to
Butler about two years ago, and formerly
boarded at the Willard House, but since
the 23d of July last has boarded at the
Yogeley House. Mr. Russell also speaks
highly of him as being au honest and truth
ful man. Nothing is known here of his
relatives. He told his friends here that lie
had not been home for ten years, but in
tended spending the coming Christmas
there.
NOTES.
A gold ring, suppo<ad to belong to one
of the men, was lound near the magazine.
It was marked "Clara to Will"; Wi»« bent,
and was pierced with holes as though done
by a fine needle, a fact that shows the sin
gularly penetrating power of nitro-glycer
me.
The spring-wagon that was de«troved,
and the team, were the property of 1 eter
Kramer, the liveryman.
Some of the clothing of tho two men is
yet hanging to the tree tops of that
vicinity.
Mr. Wood went to the magazine that
day to help Mr. Madill to load tho stuff,
and then he intended to stay there and mix
up more stock. Madill was to do the shoot
ing of the wells that day, and did not ex
pert to get back to Butler till next day.
The remains of Mr. Madill were buried
Wednesday afternoon, and those of Mr.
Wood yesterday morning, both in the
North Ceu etery.
The four lcga of one of the horccs were
sliced off close to the body, and the hind
legs of the other, and both horses were
thrown some distance.
Coal Bank Accident.
An aecideut, which may prove fatal,
happened at Joseph iiandig s coal bank
on the Uredin farm, south of Butler, this
(Thursday) noon. While Frank lloof and
a young man named Frank Fleishauer
were working in a room the roof of it fell
in upon them. The other men working in
the bank got them out, and Hoof is not
seriously injured, but Fleishauer is expect
ed to die, and the priest was taken out to
him. He is a native of Germany and came
here lately.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
The first Farmers Institute of .nango ,
county, will convene in the Court House
at Franklin, on Tuesday, January H, ,
under the auspices of the State Board o ,
Agriculture, as the State appropriates #IOO '
for agricultural meetings of this nature.
Essavs will be read by several farmers ot
the county, and some of the leading agri
culturalists and stock breeders of the
stat j will take part in the discussions.
Greene countv, in the southwestern cor .
ner of the State has been the scene of a
remarkable financial era.-h lately. Sever- ,
al of its citizens who were considered
wealthv and substantial failed and made
assignments, and quite a number of-others
are ruined from having placed their names
upon the paper of those who went under.
The cause of the crash is as follows:
A few vears ago John R. Rush, oi the
East End, Pittsburg. Cashier Lantz and
John Dowlin, of Waj nesburg, invested in
a cattle ranch in "Wyoming. They formed
a stock company and sold a large amount
of shares to other parties. The capital
invested was principally borrowed and
Greene county was drained of some
$•>00 000, having been taken out by mem
bers of the company. Wherever money
could be borrowed it was done. As a re
sult money became very scarce, and two
years ago farmers were compelled to mort
gage their farms to life insurance compan
ies and outside parties to raise needed
cash. . . , .
The men who failed were estimated to
be worth half a million, and the Prothono
tarv of the county recorded 231 judgments
in four days.
Joe Lawrence, the aeronaut who was
eaten by sharks at Honolulu, a few days
a (TO, was a native of Hookstown, Beaver
county Pa. His balloon was carried over
the sea bv an upper current; he had to
drop into the water, and was devoured by
the sharks before a boat could reach him.
The Monongahela House, Pittsburg, had
a narrow escape from complete destruction
last Thursday noon. A fire originating in
iMfeY. 1 i n e**et ev atorsk aft t^the~tm
roof and was spread by it oyer the entire
tipper story. The guests were promptly
notified anil all got out safely. The build
ing was then flooded with water, and the
loss is put at $60,000. The Monongahela
House was first built sixty years ago; it
was destroyed by the great fire of 1845
and afterwards rebuilt; it is a five story
building occupying an entire block and is
valued at hall a million.
In Wheeling. West Virginia, some loaf
ers in a barber shop, poured alcohol over
a sleeping negro; and then set his clothes
on lire, and the man was roasted alive. It
was a grim joke.
At Beaver, Friday, two men named Nel
son and Frazier were sentenced to 3 years
and 9 months each.
At Pittsburg, Saturday, W. 11. Smith
was sentenced to be hanged for the mur
der of liis wife; and Jas. L. Orr was sen
tenced to four years and ten months in the
penitentiary for criminal assault.
The Right Rev. Jno. Toigg. Catholic
Bishop of Pittsburg, died at Altoona, last
Saturday
A Mahoning county (0.) man shot 190
squirrels in the past- six months, while his
wife took in 125 washings during the same
time.
In boring for oil or gas near W ads wort h,
Medina county, Ohio, the prospectors last
week, at a depth of 2500 feet struck a bed
of pure rock salt, through which the drill
has penetrated over one hundred feet. As
there are no salt manufactories in North
ern Ohio this strike may be more valuable
than oil or gas.
The large iron tank brought down by
the Hood from Johnstown and which laud
ed in a field below Bolivar Junction, has
been taken back. It was used as an oil
tank bv the Cambria Iron Company and
when it started on its trip of 23 miles down
the river it contained 7000 gillons of crude
oil.
The last check for the Johnstown suffer
ers has been mailed by Secretary Keener.
The last distribution "amounted to $1,600,
000. The Secretary says more money has
been paid out to Johnstown than the value
of the property lost by the flood.
Wm. G. Schneider, an employe at the
Independent Keiinery. at Oil City, was
accidentia killed -while hunting near Rynd
Farm, last Thursday. Several companions
were with him. They started a rabbit,
which ran under a derrick. Schneider and
a young man named Huffman got on the
floor of the derrick, ready to shoot as the
rabbit came out. Edward Carter, anoth
er companion, stooped to look under the
derrick llis gun was cocked and pointed
toward the men on the floor, a few feet
above him. The hammer came in contact
with a pump-rod. and the gun was dis
charged. The whple toad struck Schneid
er in the face, causing instant death. Tbe
unfortunate man was about twenty-seven
years old, and leaves a wife and one child.
Alfred Andrews, who is supposed to
have murdered Aliss Clju'a Price at Kar
thaus, Centre county, last Wednesday,
while attempting to commit an outrage
upon her, was captured at Brisbiu lar>t
Monday, by Captain Clark, of the Coal and
Iron police. There is t-aid to be little
doubt of Andrew's guilt. He is an English
man twenty-five years old, and something
of a dandy, being contemptuously ttyh'.i
"Prince Alfred" by his more sensible com
panions.
