NARROW ESCAPE FROM A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
The West Chester Republican, Of the 18th,
says; On Sunday morning, Mr.. Reuben Fithisn,

dent, which came near being serious 10 at
tempting to turn of the gas at a burner under
the second story stairway OF bis residence on
West Union street, the pipe became detached,
and the gas flowed out in large volume from the
tnree-eishths inch pipe, and igniting from the
lighted burner in an instant blAzed up against
tie ceiling. The break was in very difficult
place to get at and for few moments the situ-
alton looked dangerous. Mrs. F.thlau was W
stairs with the children, one Of whom was very
sick. and there was no means Of getting do an
except by passing directly over the ire. With
great presence OF mind, she saturated the floor
over the burning ga= with the contents Of the
wash pitcher and then carried the children down
stairs. An attempt TO turn the gas oil al the
metre proved fruItless as the tap WAS rustel aud
refused TO turn. some carpet was then placed
over the break and saturae ed Nith water until
the ire was quenched, when Mr.. FItEisn. with
Lis thumbs over the detached ends Of tue pipe,
held the gas back until a plumber came and
turned 1t OF at the metre, with much dliacu.ty.
