Philadelphia Advocate says that on last
Friday evening sad accident occurred at
the residence Of Mr.. ID. w. Stambaugh, in
that place, which resulted in the death of
Mrs. Stambaugh. 1t appears that on the
evening mentioned, Mrs. Stambaugh was
building fire in the cooking stovefor' the
purpose of preparing supper, but the fire
not burning as quickly as she desired, she
picked up can Of carbon oil, and poured
q portion of the contents into the stove,
which Immediately ignited, and carried
the blaze into the can Of oil. Almost i'm
mediately the can exploded, throwing the
burning fluid over the clothing of Mrs.
,Stambaugh, which were almost instantan-
eously In "a mass Of flames. She rushed
from the house to the residence of DIR. o.
Donnell, where, by the timely appearance
of Mr.. F. G. Miller, the flames were extin-
guished. Upon examination it was found
that her body and arms were fearfully
burned, and but little hopes were enter
tanned of her recovery. DIR. Buell. was i'm
mediatsly called in. and rendered all the
r. reliefin his power, but all efforts to save
her life were unavailing. She died at two
o'clock ON Saturday morning.

Attemnt at Murder on the High-

Attempt at Murder on the HIGH
Saturday evening Mr.. West
McClain, who lives in Bowsherville, in
this county, left this place on horseback
for his home. The night was very dark
and soon after leaving the Marseilles road
on the one leading to Bowsherville, and
when in the most secluded spot on the
road, he was suddenly fired upon by some
person or persons whom he was unable to
see in the darkness. A number of shots
were fired from what he supposes to have
been pistols, and one ball struck him in
the left arm below the elbow, pass
ing through the fieshy part of the arm
but without injuring the bone. Three
other balls perforated his clothing, and his
escape from death was almost miraculous.
1t is said that the would-be assassin or as
sassins were so close to West that his coat
took fire from the contents of pistol.
The whole affair seems to be shrouded
in mystery, and there is no clue to the
of the deed. 1t is not known
whether the intention was robbery, or
simply murder to crafty some spite, or
out ofrevenge for some fancied wrong
From the fact that our friend West is one
of the most quiet and inofensive men in
the county, we are inclined to believe that
robbery was the object of the scoundrels.
When fired upon, Mr.. McClain's horse
wheeled and started back toward this
place; West gave him the spur and came
on into town, where he got his wound
dressed and remained until the next day,
when he was taken home.
We are happy to be able to say that the
wound is not very serious although it is
painful.
