4 SHOCKING AFFAIR.-A correspondent Of sas
Pttsburg Dispatch relates aa follows gatal cataz
trOphe which occurred the Both ult, At lie store
Of Vernon, Baker 4 Co., in TrumbulG county. Ollis
William, q son Of Th6s. Vernon, one 0g fhe fFaa.A
lad about twelve years old, had asked his fafer
that morning for powder which be wanted to Hash
Il was refused him In the afternoon. about ocIge
he in company with q lad named Edwin Adaas
ab0et bis own age, and boy named Roberts, aEsut
eight years old, were in the gaTFes of ths store II
play The store is two and half stories high stands
north and south, and the roof covers the slaa was4
and warehouse. There was ID the gaEfeg one kea az
powder unopened, and keg from which about bsIf
had been taken. The Vernon b0y induced ROherfs w
go down into the clerks sleeping ROOM and pr1cnFe
matches and paper, which he did bat handing thegN
to Vernon, be told him % look out 0F he would aes
bis hair singed OF, and Tan away and down stairs
He bad scarcely reached the ground before tive ex~
Ploslons took place. one % Close upon the sher as To
be scarcely dlstinguisbable. The powder Was il the
south part Of the garTet, the floor Of which YVES burst
through, and young Adams, Bib el0kHes 5n Gre His
hes blackened and his eyes blown out was hurled to
the second floor and pinned down BIZ shattered tim
bers. Young Vernon was thrown into Tie southeast
corner, burned and stunned. He recovered yegv
quickly, ran to the stairway and down STAIRS where
ne was met by the frightened people, who ssised him,
took him 70 8 well and extinguisbed the flames on his
clothes. He then told them that EDDY was us
stairs on fire. They up, and aH sore as possible
extricated the sufferer from bis agonsina situation
and extingaished the FIRE on his person. Both b6ys
were terribly sc0rehed and hIagkenea aboat their
faces hands and necks. The flesh was lbe5F OF nor
tions OF Adams limbs. tla died shat night and Yer
non the ensuing night, about O'Clock.
The south gable Of the store was blown 0at large
portion Of the roof Off and the ioists and frbers h
the upper part of that story sniyers In splnters o.
broken The cruckerY in the Rales room was broken
by the explosion, doors driven fr9 their fastenins
and considerable other danlage done. The marvel Il
that the building not set on fire by the explosion
1t is not known precisely how the accident occurred
1t is thought that Young Vernon carried oa5 his morn
ngs idea Of flashing powder, and il taking powder
from the open keg, spilled it that ii formed train
from the pile he ignited to the keg.
