IN Dayton the smallpox is reported as
on the increase, aud as eviicing a greater de-
gree of fatality. Such was the telegraph re-.
port on Tuesday night; that afternoon the
physicians had visited 10 families who had
the disease. Cars do not enter the place,
nor stages, and the most stringent means
are used to prevent people from leaving the
town who might spread the disease abroad.

Explosion at winchester,s.

Several People Injured and Much Dam-
 age Done-Names of the UnfOrtungtes.
 About o'clock yesterday afternoon one of those accidents so common where explosives are used occurred at the Winchester Ar mory. The accident happened in what is known as the loading building, one-story structure where the cartridge shells are load cd with powder. In this building were per- haps seventy-five persons at work, included in which were males and females. The acci- dent occurred in that part of the building where the shells are prepared with illuminate previous to being loaded with powder and ball. It was in this part of the building that the accident happened. How 1t happened none can with positiveness tell, but 1t is sup. posed to have boen caused by the careless use of illuminate, and although the quantity was small It's force was 50 great as to ignite q box of powder noar 1t, and the force of the explosion was so grent as to blow out the side of the building and the roof came crashing down upon the machinery and tho people at work in the room.
 Among tho persons injured were Phineai D. Warner, foreman of the room, of 10' Broadway; William Weiss, 1O4 Starr street Hiram Davison, 40 Remington street; Dan iel Seaton. Orchard street; Charles Allen Hamden John H. Barlow, 70 Bristol street Jeanette Cairns, bG Canal street, Mary daughter of Hiram Davison; Maggie Brod erick, Ashmun street, and Julia Hickman, 1t Ashmun. There may have been one or two more in the vicinity of the press at the tim' of the accident, but If SO they were not in jured worth mentioning. Warner, Davison I Allen and Weiss stood close by the press al the time, being engaged in examining it. Be hind them was the box of powder on thu bench. Of course they received the severes injury, all of them being badly but probably none of them fatally burned.
 Among the worst injuries were those re ceived by Mir. Warner, the foreman of th' shop. In addition to his bruises he received a severe cut on the side of the head by fall ing timber from the roof. His head, hand and arms were terribly burned. A repor from the hospital last evening was to tn effect that Seaton and Weiss who were takel to that institution, were not dangerously in jured and there were good hopes that the, would not be badly disfigured.
 Dr Frank H. Whittemore, who attende, Mir. Warner, thinks that he will recover, al though he is very badly bruised.

 The State picnic of the oystermen came of yesterday and was very jolly and success ful affair. At o'clock hundreds of people were focking to the wharf from all direc- tions, and the cars brought many from other places. The weather was an invitation in itself to join in, and take the benefit of the delightful sail on the Sound and enjoy the day with all the attractions of Glen Island thrown in. Taking look about the boat it was easy to see that there were several hun dred people on board. There were scores of families in the happy party, and the fair sex were out in large numbers. The sights on the island were duly enjoyed, and the New Haven party found many people from New York city, companions with themselves in visiting the places of interest. In all there were from 800 to 600 who went from this city on the picnic, included among whom was a party of 40 from Wallingford. Many in the oyster interest in Fair Haven were on the boat. The party returned at about half past seven, well pleased with the days pro- gramme.
 The steamer Rosedale, of Bridgeport, had on crowd of between 1 1,O0O and 1,200 pas sengers yesterday morning, good propor- ton of whom were oystermen and others bound for Glen Island. A considerable dele gation came down the Naugatuck road to go on the boat.

Ruth.

This play, styled the ''Great National Drama" was presented to fair sized audi
 snce at the New Haven Opera House last
 character presenting az it does the dark side
 of Mormon life, was interesting and fairly
 enjoyed The company is better than the
 average and in many respects the characters
 were ably sustained. The story of the play
 in brief is as follows: A young husband, welded to wealthy wife, becomes con-
 vert to the Mormon religion in their quiet Virginia village home. He decides to follow party of fellow converts to Salt Lake City, and the devoted wife, while bitterly opposed to the Mormon faith, refuses to separate from her deluded husband, and accompanies
 him to his new home. They are initiated into the mysteries of the world-famed En- dowment House, and the secret grips and rites of that institution are shown up in this scene. The wife grows more and more un- happy, while her husband falls deeper and deeper into the delusions which took him to the Mormon stronghold. A devoted friend of the wife, and the trustee of her fortune, follows her to Salt Lake, and urges her to make her escape She refuses until she is witness of the terrible blood atonement, and her husband informs her that he is about to be sealed to second wife, and then she casts him of and resolves to fly. She is
 assisted to escape by her friends and sends
 her child one way, while she goes another. Before her party moves from Echo canon,. they are captured by the Mormon Danites and taken back to Salt Lake City. There the wife dies after weeks of bitter suffering. To- wards the last, the fact that the devoted
 friend has always loved her becomes known
 to the audience, but not to the suffering
 wife. Theperformance will be repeated this
 evening.
