Dangers from Electricity.
Tim ditngor fin m nlBotrlo wire in shown
y the following Inultlent. Mr. lninli, tlie
rilstliiKiilslied Invoutnr of one of these bril
liant Illuminator, u seriously wounded
a short time ngo, nnd lio probably reckons
himself fortunate that lie esonped with his
life. lie wns showing some gentlemen tbe
manner in whloli tlie moiloiu llgbt In mnnii
factured, and by mime careless, move tlie
powoiful fluid took refune ou one of his
thumbs, inflicting an ugly wound, nnd lny
tag tbe flesh bare to tlie bone. Will I am J.
Denver of Bprlnglleld, manager of the
Western Union Telegraph Ollloe ill that
city, also had nn unpleasant experience a
few evoulngn ago. He wat handling some
Ure-alutni wires In nu englue-bouse, and
while thus engaged they became acciden
tally oiossed outside with tome electric
light wires. The shook wat to severe as to
knock him down, nnd the wire which be
was holding was reduced to in olio u iron In
the fi notional part of n second. If Mr.
Denver had been so unfortunate as to have
boeu iu a position to allow the whole force
of the escaped current from the Illumina
ting wire to pass through his body, the
telegraph company would have beon deprlv
d of a very elllolunt ollloinl, nnd the com
munity would have mourned on esteemed
member of society.
Joseph W. (Stover, the well-known Bos
ton electrician, was called upon, as an ex
pert, to give his viewB upou the subject.
He did so at length. The substance of his
statement was that the large wires used for
carrying a current of electricity sufficient
for lighting purposes were dangerous to
both life and property, unless thoroughly
Insulated; that, if one of tlio wires was
broken and a person grasp both of the sev
ored ends of the wire, the current would
pass through bis body and kill him instant
ly ; that the wires were charged so full
of electricity that the current wan constant
ly seeking to escape from the wire and take
the shortest route to the ground. If, in
leaving the wire, it came in contact with nu
iudiviitunl, it would be like a stroke of
lightning ; if with inflamahle substance, a
the would be generated. He Baul that tlie
principle of electric lightning was yet iu its
infancy and be had no doubt the compa
nies engaged in the business would, for
their own protection, eventually ilud ade
quate means for insulating the wires.
A Girl's Choice.
It was in a drug store of course. All
interesting incidents occur in drug stores
that is nearly all. Bhe was pretty, with
bl uo eyes and golden hair, one of those
kind of beauties the poet would have called
nn " angel," but for the fact that a colony
ot pimples on her fair frontispiece preclud
ed all thought of a celestial being. Mow
ing timidly to the handsome clerk, she
asked for "Bwayne's Ointment for skiu
diseases," and upon receiving it vnnished
like the morning dew before the Summer
sun.
A Lively Time.
Chicngo, October 2. Special dispatches
from Bloomington, 111., gives graphio de.
tails of the lynching there last night of
Charles Pierce the imprisoned horse thief
who shot and killed Jailor Franks while
the latter was conveying him from one cell
to another in the jail. The dispatches say
that some of the best citizens were in the
front ranks of the lyuchers. Tbe leading
business men cheered and eucouraged tbe
lynchers. The women waved their hand
kerchiefs in approbation for two hours.
The sheriff with all bis force, tbe police
force and other officials stood at the Jail and
fought and plead with the Infuriated crowd.
When tho murderer was raised the first
time Officer Bailey of the police force im
perilled bis life by breaking through the
crowd and cutting the rope, letting tho
body fall. Upon attempting to repeat this
act of bravery be came near being killed.
The officers called out the fire department
to quell tbe riot by throwing water on the
crowd. When a steam engine arrived on
the ground cries of "cut tbe hose" con
vinced the firemen that it would not do to
undertake to carry out their instrnctions
and they retired. The ringing of the fire
bells called bundreds.more to the scene and
added to tbe excitement. When tbe lynch
ing was imminent dispatches passed be
tween Governor . Collum nnd Lieutenant
Governor Hamilton, and tbe latter was
directed by the governor to tell the sheriff
to call on the militia to protect life and
property, but it was known that the mili
tia could not be assembled. Senator Fifer,
formerly state's attornoy and It. B. Porter,
state's attorney, did all they could to quiet
the mob, promising them tbat the laurdor
er should be tried and punished, but their
pleadings nnd promises were booted at.
"Justice and the courts are a farce." "We
ihave seen too much of court qnibblings,"
and other similar remarks were shouted at
the officers by tbe mob, who presisted in
their purpose of lynching Pierce and then
.dispersed.
tSTThe latest man wbo has been made
liappy through tbe use of this valuable lin
iment is Mr. James A. (Joularj, Librarian
of tbe Union Catholio Library of this city.
The following is Mr. Conlan's indorsement:
. Union Catholic Libbabt Abbociation,
304 Dearborn Street, Chicago, Bept. 10,
1880. I wish to add my testimony as to the
merits of St. Jacobs Oil as a cure for rheu
matism. One bottle has cured me of this
troublesome disease, which gave me a great
dual of bother for a long time ; but thanks
to the remedy I am cured. This statement
is unsolicited by any one in its interest.
