understand our city fathers, Heaven
bless them, are about to extend the water
supply for the city of Dallas by putting down
some two-inch mains on Houston, Market
and Live Oak streets Any other city that
| ever heard ofwould put down at least
four-inch pipe under similar conditions.
The four-inch pipe would cost about
twice as much as the two-inch. The ditch
ing and laying would be about the same
for either, while the four.inch would carry
a little more than four times as
much water under same pressure as
the two-inch, not counting any thing for
the great extra percentage of friction on
the two-inch pipe when full supply is
wanted. Are the good citizens on these
streets entitled to no fire protection under
this economical q administration of our
city dads2 The two-inch pipe would not
convey one.half water enough for one fire
engine, with no water being used at the
time for other purposes. If Dallas "builds
up" as we hope, and as present indications
lead us to suppose, the time will soon come
when, If not now, 1t will be desirable to
have fire hydrants on these streets. This
two-inch pipe will not half supply one of
the two two and half inch openings of
these hydraDts..

Story ofm Shepherd Dog.

A correspondent, writing from Denver Col, relates the following pathetic little story: One herder, whom we met at Cold Spring ranche showed us very pretty shep- herd dog that he said he would not sell for $5OO She had at that time four puppies
 The night we arrived we visited his camp and were greatly interested in the little mother and her nursing babies. Amid those wild, vast mountains, this little nest of motherly devotion and baby-trust was very beautiful. While we were exclaiming, the assistant herder came to say there were more than 20 sheep missing. Two male dogs, both larger than the little mother, were standing about, with their hands in their brooches pockets, doing nothing. But the herder said neither Tom nor Dick would find them. Flora must go. It was urged by the assistants that her foot was sore, she had been hard at work all day, nearly worn out and must suckle her puppies. The boss insisted that she must go. The suR was setting. There was no time to lose. Flora was called and told to hunt for lost sheep, while her master pointed to 8 great forest, through the edge of which they had passed on their way up. She raised her head, but seemed very 10th to leave her babies The boss called sharply to her. She rose, look ing tired and low-spirited, with head and tail down, and trotted off toward the forest. I said s'That is too bad" "Oh, she'll be rlgnt Dack. Ohes Hgntnlng on stray sheep.
 The next morning I went over to learn whether Flora found the strays. While we were speaking the sheep were returning, driven by the little dog, who did not raise her head or wag her tail even when spoken to, but craw1ed to her puppies and lay down by them, offering the little empty breasts She had been out all night, and, while her hungry babies were tugging away fell asleep. I have never seen anything so touching. So far as I was concerned, Hthere was not dry eye in the house."

A Fatal Explosion.

] The CapoIa at SarSent's Factory Blows l Up Wrecks One of the Buildings- ! Death of David MitcheIl-Three Other ! Holders Badly Burned.
 ] A terrific explosion occurred at Sargent's
 factory about 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon, which fatally injured one man, David Mitchell, ! of Il Summer Court, and seriously burned l John Cornell, B Collis street. James Stan- ford and Simon Carney were painfully but not dangerously burned. Dr. Frank H. 1 White more attended the injured men. After 1 dressing Stanford's and Carney's wounds the doctor allowed them to walk home. Mitchell was sadly burned about the face,
 arms and back. He was insensible when picked up and it was found that @ piece of red hot iron was lying against his feet, &C.,
 tually roasting them. Cornell, while not so
 badly burned was terribly injured by being
 struck with pieces of the wreck. They were
 both taken to the hospital, where Mitchell died at 1O:30 o'clock yesterday morning. Con- nell last evening was as comfortable as could
 be expected and it was thought that hewould pull through all right.
 The explosion took place in a small brick
 building west of the northern extremity of what IS called the south foundry. The building is adjoining the foundry, being sep arated by thick brick partition. It is known as the cupola building and the roof is made of corrugated sheet iron. The build ing Is about twenty-five feet square. Inside, resting at it's base and extending up perhaps about ten feet above the roof, is whatis termed the cupola. Iron and coal are put into it at a large opening on the second floor. The great fire, quickened by the draft from & blower, melts the iron which runs through an

 CTS. One hundred and twenty holders are | employed in the foundry. Gathered in line
 waiting for their chance to get the melted | iron, were sixty men. Outside were the four | injured men, whose duty it was to attend the | eupola, which was in Mitchelrs charge. The iron doors to the cupola, it seems, became red hot on three occasions during the after noon, and were ''cooled,' as is the custom, by turning on hose, the water from which 1 formed a pool directly underneath. The doors became heated once more, and Mitchell, 1 in order to save them from being melted,
 ordered the pin holding the doors to be 1 taken out. While this was being done 1 Foreman Weed ordered barrow of sand to | be thrown on the water in order to avoid just what occurred, but it was too late; the pin had been withdrawn, and down came the 1 molten metal upon the water, which gener- ated gas, causing an explosion which could ! be heard great distance. The entire roof of the building was blown off, and pieces of ] 1t were scattered in every direction. Some ! large pieces were found on the top of neigh l boring brick buildings used for foundry pur- poses. The front walls of the building were cracked and large sq 1ares of brick were blown out. It was feared the front wall would fall. On the west side of the building square of brick about four feet in diameter was blown out and the brick scattered in every direction among the men working in the foundry. There were several narrow escapes from being struck by the bricks, and but for the timely I warning of the assistant foreman many of the men would have been seriously hurt. |. The glass in many of the windows in the buildings within thirty feet of the cupola was broken by the concussion and a part of the tin roof on what is called the picking room, directly opposite, was blown off. A sheet of flame was seen to shoot across the roadway along side of the cupola, and enter the windows of a building where eight men were working near the windows. How they escaped injury is 8 mystery. The loss to the property will probably reach $500, and repairs will be commenced at once.
 Mitchelrs funeral will take place this after noon from the Hospital chapel.

Killed by Electricity.

P1rTsBURG, Pa., Feb. 21.-A singular and fatal accident occurred at Carnegie 6 Co.'s Union Iron Mills, on Thirty third street, about half-past one o'clock this morning. In the mill there is an electric battery of sufficient power to run the sixteen lights necessary to illuminate the premises. Some trouble has been experienced in the past with boys working in the mill who persisted in making dangerous experiments with the gen. erating engine. In order to stop this prac- tice a fence about four feet high had been built completely around the engine and 8 special watchman employed to keep the boys away from it. At the time mentioned Henry Baker a workman in the plate mill, took a lantern in his hand and went over to clock hanging near the electric machine to see what time it was. After ascertaining the hour he walked to the machine and stood leaning upon the fence around it. The facts Just at this point could not be clearly learned, but from statements made by persons con- nected with the mill it appears that Robert Lyon, the engineer, in connection with some experiments he had been making, had stretched a wire from the battery to one of the other wires and along the top of the fence. While Baker was leaning upon this fence he suddenly turned around, smiled, and gesticulating "Oh," dropped into the arms of Lyon, who was directly behind him. expiring immediately.
 It is supposed that while leaning upon the fence he had touched the wire with his lamp and empty hand, thus forming circuit, the current passing completely through his body and into the ground. A livid mark around the throat and @ long furrow running from the thigh of the left limb to the ankle showed the course taken by the electricity. Otherwise Baker looked as if he had fallen into deep sleep.
