Terrific Boiler Explosion.
Great Destruction Of Property and
Remarkable Escapes from Death.

HAzLETON, Feb. 7.-About half-past
eleven O'Clock last night terrific eX-
plosion occurred i'm the boiler house of
the colliery of Linderman, Sheer " Co.,
ton. The fireman, William Culp. was
in the house where. there are eight large
boilers and had just walked away from
the one that exploded. The first init
nation he had of anything of the kind
was the terrible shock and the roise of
the explosion. The boiler house was
completely demolished and bricks, large
pieces of iron, timber and other debris
were thrown hundreds of feet away.
So great was the force of the eXploS-
ion that piece of the boiler weighing
a ton and half was hurled distance
of two hundred yards when it crashed
through dwelling house occupied by
the families of James Carpenter and
William Leonard. The whole lower
part of the front of the house was brok-
en- in and all the furniture in the lower
rooms was badly demolished. The oc-
cupants were sleeping in the house but
none of them were injured. The escape
of Culp, the fireman. from serious in
jury was almost miraculous. He was
completely covered by the debris, but
was only slightly injured. Patric Boyle,
the engineer. was in the engine house
and was seriously scalded, besides sus-
tanning other injuries. For hundred
yards in every dirt ction the debris is
scattered about on the ground. No one
seems to know the cause of the eXplo-
sion, but 1t is to be investigated.

Arabs Fighting with Bashi-
BaZouks.

A letter from the scene of warfare
with the False Prophets rebels to the
London Ne,cs says: l find that am
the first correspondent who has reach
ed as far as Debbah, and this l have
done in voyage from Dongola, in IA
little lateen-rigged open boat. The yill.
age was destroyed long ago by the Mu
dir and there is now nothing but the
fort built, as all these forts are on the
very worst plan fort can be, that of
square. For the little garrison of Bashi-
Bazouks I have great respect. Time
after time it has been attacked, and has
successfully defeated the attackers.
The last time the Arabs had recourse
to strategy. They beat their tom toms
very vigorously half mile off mean
time they crept silently into the ditch
underneath the low bastion where was
the one gun of the fort. One of them,
however, let off rife by accident, and
the garrison were at once alarmed.
Though it was dark they could perceive
thousands in the ditch, and they open
ed whitening fire upon them. The
enemy, however, succeeded III actually
seizing the wheels of the gun and also
the legs of the Turkish commandant,
who was standing by, and a pull deYil,
pull baker took place. At length the
officer was dragged within the ramparts.
Hundreds of Arabs were moved down
in their desperate attempt to enter. In
some places they threw skins over the
zariba, and thus walked over the prick
ly abattis. At others, where there was
no ditch, but merely mlmosa against
the wall, they mounted on each others
shoulders. At one time they actually
succeeded in bursting oprn wicket
near the gate, but all who entered were
caught in Il rat trap-they found them
selves in an oinn court ON which
there was no exit and they were NOW, d
down mrrcllessiy. For two hours did
the assault continue. At lchgth the
Arabs, having lost the II. tier part of
their numbers, retired. In tn ese deS.
