THAwING MIRO GIYCERINE.- terrible
explosion occurred on the 9th at the lead
mines of Craw ford, Mills & Co., near Ha-
eel Green, Wis. Joseph Rogers, wo k
man having change Of the nitro glycerine
used in blasting, took a quantity into a
blacksmith shop to thaw out by the forge.
There was fash and noise of many
thunders. The blacksmith shop was scat
tered for many rods around, and the min
els for miles about were terribly trighten-
ed. Rogers body was found tsenty rods
fro the forge His face was but mass
of bloody flesh. One arm was torn from
his body. There were no other wounds
On the bo.ly. The legs from the knees
down were entirely uninjured, being en-
cased in thick, high topped boots. Rogers
was an old miner, and leaves wife, but
no children. He had been in the employ
of the company for a long time, and hand
ling the dangerous compound so much had
made him careless.
Since the above was in type, we have
seen letter from Crawford, Mills & Co.,
of Hazel Green, written to Hendy, Mundy
& Co., of this place, stating the particu'
lars as far as anyone knows. Mr.. Rogers
was alone in the blacksmith shop, getting
the oil ready, while his partners were fin
ishing drilling hole. Nothing is posi-.
lively known as to how the damage was
done, but the shop is blown to peices, and
the unfortunate man found about forty
rode away from the shop, and one arm
blown off at the elbow. The decision OF
the coroner's jury was, THAT he did will
fully violate his instructions for handling
nitro glycerine, and SO caused his DEATH

~ During the past week sensation
in the shape of an old fashioned ghost,
has taken possession of the people at Gar

ghost early one morning while he was
going to mill. 1t assumed the shape of a
man, and stood in the road in front of his
team he spoke to it and it flew off in the
brush, taen assumed the shape of a sheep.
Several others claim to have seen it, ali
testifying to about the same story. One
man tried to shoot it, but he found his
arm paralyzed. We have only just heard
the story, and cannot tell more about the
particulars. We wait for further develop

FLEET WING Hook AND LADDER CO.. No.
Lit is surprising how much perseverance
will accomplish A visit to the Fleet Wing
Truck House in this city, will prove the asser-
ton. During the past two months the upper
rooms of the house have been finished in a
style that certainly deserves tie highest praise.
The walls and ceilings have been handsomely
white-coated; and neat cornice around the
parlor and as plendid centre-pi make it one
of the handsomest rooms in this city. In the
centre of the ceiling hangs tasty chandelier
with eight burners covered with ground-glass
globes. The wood work is of ash and walnut.
finished in oil. In the sitting room is a hand
some desk of black walnut, and substantial,
chairs of ash make up the seating arrange
ment. The steps leading to the second floor
have been finished in imitation black walnut,
and the treads covered with rubber cloth, rem
dering them noiseless and protecting them
from wear. A powerful force pump has been
placed in the truck room, by which water can
be thrown to the middle of the street in front.
The water is suitable for drinking, as well as
for washing up, &c. 1t is drawn from the
well of Mr.. John Sproat, ST., near the truck
house.
The plastering was done by Mr. John Van
Horn, and is crcditable to his skill the wood
work under the direction of Capt. JAS Bird
whose taste and skill are well known the fin
ishing touches with the brush were done by
Mr.. Stephen Hull in good style; and Mr. w.
II. Titus, the popular furniture dealer, furnish
ed the chairs.
All that remains I make the Company hap
Ply is to have the parlor carpeted and furnish
ed. The people of our city should show their
appreciation of the energy displayed by the
Company, and assist them in completing the
work which they have undertaken Nearly
all the money thusfar expended has been oh
tanned through hard work by the members Of
the Company The money secured through
their famous concerts every year has required
a large expenditure of time and labor, and
those who have attended them have received
the full value of the amount paid.

Patrick Lynch having received votes on
the 18th ballot, was declared elected.
AT this point, Mr.. VIM. Lyman, Tax Re-
ceiver, by permission, made some remarks in
relation to tax collecting, claiming that a
statement which was made at the recent meet
ing of the Council, was incorrect both as to
the amount of tax on duplicate received by
him and the amount since collected.
Mr.. Jos. Smith, admitting himself to be
the guilty person referred to by Mr.. Lyman,
said lie regretted having male the blunder in
regard to the amount of tax warrants passed
to Mr.. Lyman. There had been SO many
changes, it was somewhat confusing, and he
had stated the amount at about seven thous-
and dollars as going to Mr.. Lyman when it
should have been thirty-seven hundred, the
former amount being that turned over to Mr..
Titus. The amount collected by Mr.. Lyman
was stated to correspond with the report of
Treasurer Robbins. as received by him, but
omitted $4,000 paid to Treasurer Lambert.
On motion of Mr.. Burnett, a committee
was appointed to confer with Mr.. Lyman and
report to Council the names of all persons
whose taxes are uncollectble
Messrs. Jos. Smith, Burnett and Horn were
appointed said committee.
On motion, adjourned.

the 9th Battalion Royal sharpshooters, which
recently arrived in this country on a concert
tour, will give concert i'll Lyceum Hail. to-
morrow evening Thursday, Aug. 14th). This
band is highly spoken of by the city press
The great success achieved by the German,
French and English bands at the Boston
Jubilee, induced this Band to visit this coun-
try, permission having been granted by the
German military authorities. As the weather
is not suitable for concerts in the large cities.
they are visiting few of the larger towns
until the opening of the musical season. We
shall be greatly disappointed if they do not
give performance far superior to anything of
the kind ever heard in this city. See adver-

gE5" The following items we copy from the
Clinton Democrat On Friday last while
Mr.. Alder was working at the iron mines of
Conover & Large, just west of Clinton, he
met with q very serious accident. He was
using horse and cart near pit some thirty
feet deep when the horse suddenly backed the
cart against him in such a manner as to throw
him into it, and they fell in upon him. He
was found with badly fractured ankle and
with some severe bruises, but under the skill
full attention Of Drs. Bird and McCauley, he is
now quite comfortable, and is thought to be
doing well. Strange to say, the horse was
not seriously injured by his fall.
Charles Wagner, a cigar-maker employed
by Smith & Durham, in Clinton, and board
ing with Mr.. Laquay, mysteriously disappear
ed last Monday morning. He went to work
at the usual hour, laid out some tobacco to
work upon, then lit cigar and walked cut
the back-door since which time nothing has
been heard of him. He is a German by birth,
about 30 years of age, and has no relatives in
this country. He left money in the hands ofhis
employers, and clothing at his boarding house.
He was severely i'll some time since, and had
subsequently shown some signs Of mental de-
rangement. The strange manner of his dis
appearance caused his friends here much anx-
iety, and any information regarding him will
be thankfully received.
Mrs. Mary Lair, living with her grandson
Mr.. Peter Wagner, in Clinton, is now cen
tennarian. Her one hundred and first birth
day was on the 9th, last Wednesday. She en-
ioyed its sunshine. and was the recipient of
many calls from friends and neighbors. Her
memory is remarkable eye-sght good, and
hearing nearly as good as when young. AT
the age Of two years she saw General Wash
ineton at her fathers house, near New Mark
ether father being an officer in the patriot
army. She related the circumstances with
precision and with wonderful clearness of
tongue. AT night the Clinton Cornet Band
gave her serenade-perhaps the first time in
hundred years she had been thus honored.
Mr.. Allen and party may not again have the
privilege of serenading centennarian in our
borough. Mrs. Lair mother lived to the age
of 102, and her father to nearly his hundredth
year. She herself appears good for an aver
age life time yet.
