James Mack was badly burned; more than
one half his body is badly scorched, The
flesh peeled of his hands as you would take
off kid glove. He suffers terribly, but Is
very patient under his suffering. II Is not
thought he can survive.
Patrick Manney is badly burned about his
legs, and is suffering intense agony. He, as
is also young Mack, is At st. Josephs Hospi-
tai, under the charge Of the Sisters Of Mercy.
James Mack was so frightfully burned
that it was impossible for him to recover, and
at about six O'Clock on Wednesday death re-
heved him from his agonies.
The remainder Of the men are expected to
recover from their injuries in short time.
Phe cause Of the accident appears to have
arisen from "clinkers" having accumulated in
the furnace and preventing tapping of it. The
furnaces have been running three or four
Yeas without having been cleared out. On
Saturday last the blast was put out, and on
Sunday a stream of water was run on the
top. On Monday they commenced work at
the opening Of the furnace, by removing a
portion of the brick work and erecting .
scaffold to facilitate the operations Of the work
men. The men were progressing with their
work on Tuesday afternoon, when about half
past three o'clock they had made consid-
cradle progress with their work, and it be-
came evident that some Of the great MAS
must fall. They vera told to leave of,
but they were 20 eager to bring about the de-
sired result-the fall Of some Of this hard
pan stuff-that they kept on. A few seconds
before the great mass fsll small portion fell
out, allowing some Of the gas and coal dust
to escape, and shortly the whole mass fell,
engulphing the men in a furnace OF fire.
II is almost . miracle that any Of the nine
men escaped at all.

The Power Of q Dollar.


In this land of equal opportunities for all,
every man of middle aye, and Of steady in
dustries, and economical habits, ought to be
the owner of q comfortable home. 1t is not
difficult task it depends simply upon the
habit of saving. If you are laboring man,
listen and will tell you how it can be done
Just save your money, and make a weekly
deposit in the savings bank. A dollar week,
deposited in the savings bank, amounts in
forty years, to 80, 4l3. II in thirty years. it
amounts to $4,277.Ol in twenty years it
amounts to 1877 81 There is no difficulty
in getting the dollar every week the great
trouble is to get it into the bank to estab-
lish the habit of giving regularly with your
earnings, and depositing them where they
will earn something.
If you once form the habit Of depositing
dollar every Saturday night, it will soon get
to be not only an easy but a pleasant thing to
do, and it will not be long before you will
find that you can spare two dollars q week.
then three or four dollars q week, and at the
end Of the very first year. you will be sur
prised and delighted to find that you have
made good beginning toward home.
Again, you will find that in saving dollar
to-day, you will learn how to save another
soon become easy to you.
Many men are always groaning because
they are not lucky" enough to get rich.
There is no luck about it luck has moth
ing whatever to do with it it is simply
question Of earning money, by steady in
dustry Of sdriny money by persevenng
economy and Of putting your money where
it will increase by drawing interest.
And this is just where the Savings Bank
helps you savings bank is simply an asso-
cation Of men who put their money together,
and then loan it in large amounts and divide
the interest between them. One laboring
man, with his one dollar, or fifty dollars, OF
his hundred dollars cannot do it alone but if
a hundred or five hundred poor men club to-
gether and put their money together, they
can then loan their money to better advan-
tage, and share the interest alike The saw
ings bank, then, is great advantage to the
lAboring man, because it gives him chance
to place every spare dollar Of his earnings
where it will increase from year to year. and
thus help to buy him home. Owning .
home, then, depends on these conditions
LIST. Industry Turning time into money.
I'd. Economy Spending your money for
what you do need, and not for what you think
you need.
Sd. Interes Placing your sHgte dOtIars
where they will come back to you with mates
which they have earned themselves while
yOn were asleep.
And thus you may, il you will, realize the
POWER OF A DOLLAR.

A FEARFUL CATASTROPHE AT THE NORTH
three and four o'clock, on Tuesday afternoon,
the people in the vicinity Of the Rolling Mills
on the North Side, were startled by a loud re-
port, which was immediately followed by .
mill 1t was evident to every one that an
explosion had taken place, and in q very short
time the mill was surrounded by an immense
crowd Of anxious and excited men, women
from the women as to the cause Of the report,
and if any and who we're hurt; but for sever
al mis- utes no satisfactory answer could be
given In little while it became known that
an explosion had taken place at one Of the
blast furnaces, aud that several men were
more or less injured. The excitement then
became intense, for many Of those present
had friends and relatives working in the west
mill, and they eagerly tried to push forward
and get glimpse at the sufferers as they
were being brought from amidst the burning
coal and streams of moulten iron. Some Of
the men were unable to walk, but most Of
them needed only medical aid, and could a..
sist themselves As soon as the first shock
was over it was discovered that nine Of the
men were victims to the disaster, three Of
whom it is found are fatally injured. Some
Of the men are burned in dreadful manner,
the skin having peeled from the parts most
exposed.
The names Of the victims TO the disaster arr
