The little village of Harrison, on the western
edge this county, was the scene OF trighttuI
gas explosion last night, riddling the new Town
Hall, killing two or three people and inlurlng
number of others The building was entirely new
having been completed only a few months and
was intended for public use entirely, The first
Hoor had the Post Office, Mayors office and room
for fire engine while the second noor was htted
for a public hall. The building was lighted oy
gas generated from gasoline, the machine being
known as the Van Kallar or Cincinnati Machine
It had not worked well ever since it was put in
two months ago, and an agent OF the manuIae-
turers had been working to find out the difficulty
Last evening, when he left, he put man named
Rupp, Councilman of the village in charge
About eight o'clock, Rupp, accompanied by
Councilmen Fisher and Probst entered the cellar
for The rurpose of making some alterations in the
machinery, it is supposed. They hsd been there
but a moment when the catastrophe occurred,
The exposlon was terrific. The building seemed
TO rise in the air and then in moment fall to
pieees. The Post Office was flledwi people who
had come to get their mail from the train that
had inst arrived. Then, to add to the horror, the
building at once took fire. panic ensued that
was terrible. Those who were able to get out
"AAAAN
on the streets attracted by the cries of those with
in the building hurried in to rescue them.
Rupp, it is supposed, was instantly killed, his
body being found afterWard with all the clothes
torn off, where he had been standing. Aten.year'
old girl named Katie dinner, who was in the
room above, was caught betwoeen twosections Of
floor as they came down and suspended, head

CLERICAL ERROR sToUGHToN,

1t may be remembered that Mr.. E, W.
Stoughton, now defaCto Minister of the
United States to Russia, discovered a
clerical error in the returns from De Soto
parish, Louisiana, in the fact that pro-
test dated Nov. "a was found enclosed in
a registered envelope, which had been
sealed, registered, postmarked, and di-
rected to the Returning Board on Nov.
lS. 1t is now susceptible of legal proof
that this envelope was broken open in
the New Orleans Post Office, with the
privity of a Deputy Postmaster, and also
of two of the visiting statesmen, WhO
lUere not only priUy to the crime, but GdUi8ed

THERE WAS A SHERMAN EDITOR.


There was Sherman editor
From Washington that came,
To regulate "old Molly Stark"
And safely bag the game!
At once he pitched in fiercely,-
He had so much to tell;
And really the old organ
Seemed bound to cut a swell
He thought TO cross the river,
Nor wait to build bridge
Expecting thus to seize upon
A most commanding ridge!
Not he iiljlrm of purposel
Not he to pause and dream
But he the mighty leader
To bust" things with a scream
He told us matters wonderful!
Things all unknown before
That Sherman quite "above reproach,
We now must all adsre.
And Fraud too must we worship,
AS wells the golden calf;
And this was said with earnestness-
Though some inclined to laugh!
So too, Of many other things
This editor proclaimed;-
That we must change our tactlCsi-
Or live to be ashamed
His men to office we must choose
His Sherman men true blue
And then the fills at bridges
Would be reported true
Tom and his great advance man
Must have a daily, tool
They've got it running-running-
But wherein the devil to?
Tom feels the daily burden,
Those specials" of the Press,
Then "those id editorials"
