boiler, for he suffered the full force of the
explosion. His head, one arm and one leg
were blown off, and his body was mutilat

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF.
Geo, Bester a s<.n of Thomas Bester of
Institute Hill, was blown to atoms at the
Humes Nitro-jjlycerine-magizine, on the
Matthew Brown place in Butler twp,
yesterday morning. He was in or near
tbe magazine at the time of the explosion
and no trace of him, or particles that
could positively be identified as having
been a part of him, could be found.
Louis A. Black, a son of Louis Black,
the teamster of W. Fcarl St., Bester's
companion, was blown to pieces at the
same instant. His remains were brought
to Butler and taken to his home, where
service-: will lie held this eyening, and
they will be huricd at Bruin, tomorrow,
upon the arrival ot the IO o'clock train
from Butler.
The two young men, who were in the
employ of the Huiues Torpedo Co. drove
out to the factory that morning of their
own accord; and it is supposed that
Bester, at the time of ihe explosion was
engaged in carrying the cans of glycerine
from tbe "cold magazine to the "warm"
cne, and thai he dropped a can while
can_ ing it or putting it on a shelf. The
two magazines containing about 700
pounds of the terrible stuff, _ exploded
simultaneously, but the larger hole in
the ground is where the "warm" one
stood. Nothing whatever is left, except
ing the holes, to tell where the two buiid
ingi were. These buildings were about
50 feet apart.
Black seems to have been on the other
ide of the run, and near the boiler-house.
at the time of the explosion, for he was
blown into, and through, the factory or
mixing house, some distance further
d >wn the run. Nothing remains of the
b -iler-house, excepting the boiler; nor of
the factory, excepting the mixing-tubs.
Both buildings were blown to pieces.
Both men met their fate in the same
spot where Woods and Medill met their's
six years t'go.
They drove out in a buggy, and left
their horse standing between the two
magazines. The explosion, tore the har
ness off the horse and blew the buggy to
atoms. In its flight, one of the tires
struck a wild-cherry tree, a hundred
yards away, and from 6 to 7 inches in
diameter, and wrapped itself three times
around it. The tree was blown down.
The section of the tree with the tire en
circling it is on exhibition in Goettler's
shoe-Store window. Not a vestige of
wood i,belonging to the wheel; remained
with the tire, though all the bolts and
other pieces are there. One can try to
realize from this strange sight, the ter
rible power of nitro-glyceriue. The horse
strange to say, was not blown to pieces.
Th e explosion occurred shortly before
10 o' clock, and its force seemed up the
hill. John Shaffners house wrts badly
shatterd, and several windows in Clerk
Criswell'6 house half a mile away were
broken. Pieces of skin and bones were
picked up on the hill, but as it was im
possible to tell which of the two men
they belonged to, they were all put in
Black's coffin.
The shock shook every house in Butler
and broke some windows, people ran
out into the streets, and though they
guessed what had happeued, it was
an hour or better before they heard
of the death of the two men, and then
tliey flocked to the scene by the hundred.
Nitro-glycerine is put up in square
cans, holding from 26 to 29 pounds each;
it freezes in cold weather, anil has to be 1
thawed out before it can be used. This |
is done by placing the cans in warm
water. To place them in hot water is
very dangerous.
Mr. Bester was married, lived 011 West
Clay street, and has two children. His
wife is a daughter of Wash. Stillwagon,
of Slippery Rock township. Mr. Black
was about 20 years of age and unmarried,
but was to have been married at Christ
mas.
Robbery at the Wick House
"When George Arner, of the Wick House,
went down stairs about five o'clock on
Tuesday morning he found all the doors
unlocked, and surmised that something
was wrong, but did not know what it was
until Thomas Hoon, of Centre, Thomas
Graham, of Concord, and S. R. Graham, of
Washington, who had slept in the large
room over the office, came down and re
ported that they had been robbed—Hoon of
abont $35 in money, Graham of his watch
and $3.50, and Campbell of $3.50. The
three men had gone to bed leaving their
door open and the light burning, nnd the
thief took the money lrom the wallets of
each, carefully replacing Hoon's and
Campbell's, bnt leaving Graham's on the
dresser. The hotel was crowded that
night and there wero people around
until long after midnight, but there are no
just grounds for suspecting any one person.

Mexico, on tne lorder, and the sanitary
inspector M. li S. reports two uses ol
Nogales, Arizona. The prevalence "1
smallpox on tr.e Mexican border is caused
by negroes leturning from the state ol

LINCOLN J CABTKRS,.FAST MAIL, FRIDAY,
DEC 6th.
A production of auusu .l magnitude will
be given at the Park Thcatro next Friday
i veiling. Lincoln J. Carter's superb scenic
me'odrama ' The Fast Mali." As its name
indicates, it deals largely with the rail
roa 1 in its incidents, bur it presents au
abundance of effects that are -daring in
their magnitude and admirable in their
execution The gteamboat is said to bo a
winder ot clever conception and masterly
mechanidal work, and the railroad scene,
wit- its trains going at a terrific rate of
speed, makes the stage seem like a piece
at reality. The Niagara Falls scene is
wondeifully beautiful, and it may safely be
said is more elaborate than anything of
the kind ever before attempted this
city. —There are a multitude of minor
effects th »t contribute to mike the pur
foruiance a revelation of realism. The
whistles, bells and splashing are heard as
the boat leaves the wharf, The sounds
that tell us of an approaching traiu herald
the approach of the freight aud the last
mail traiu—the latter rushing by with
deople gazing from the window i»r the
heroine who has jus: saved her lover's life
by fastening a letter to the mail pouch.
The roaring of Niagara Falls is heaid, aad
ihe mist that rises from it is bhown vividly
The play is under the personal direction
of L. J. Carter, the author. The cast is
said to bo a capable one. The play is
etartliug at times iu the intensity of its
climaxes, and tlre-e, when presented with
all the effects of the intricate stage sett
ings, bring the interest to a degree that is
rarely attained even in the melodrama.
A large numbor of people are employed in
the production, which is iu many particu
lars plainly the result of caro and skill
combined
Park Theatre all Next Week'
Cecil Spooner and her repertoire com
pany will be the attraction ot the Park
Theatre all next week. Of lier the Pitts
burg Leader says; At the East End
Theatre last evening Cecil Spooner and
her company opened for a week's engage
ment in the three-act Yankee comedy,
' Becky Bliss, the Circus Girl., The play
and the company soored one of the big
gest hits yet seen in the East End Theatre.
Oeile Spooner, who appears as Becky
Bliss, proven herself a dancer of great abil
ity. Uer kaleidoscope dance in the second
act was one »if the greatest novelties ol
the season. Members of the company in
troduce several .specialties during tho
action of tho piece.
Coming Attraction at the Park Theatre
William Morri's Lost Paradise ;will
fidlow Cecil Spoone at the Park Theatre
every bodj' will rememoer Lost Paradise
as the stronge3*. attraction that Manager
Hurckhalter had last season and the house
will no doubt bo jammed to the doors. .
Gloriana will follow Lost Paradiso.
The New York Telegram has the following
to say of Gloriana: The unmistakable
evidences of favor with which "Gloriana"
was recoived by tho auuionce last evening
are a proof that the play made a decided
hit, aud that its success in London will be
undoubtedly repeated in this country.
Throughout the three acts, each of which
was more hilarious thin th-i other, the ap
pU ise was unrestrained and hearty.
