Natural Gas Rxplosion.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Aug. 31.-The oven at
S. Marvin & Co. IS steam bakery on Liberty
street was the scene of a frightful natural
gas explosion this morning about II o'clock,
by which five persons were terribly burned,
two of whom it is thought fatally. Their
names were Samuel Stafford. engineer; w.
B. Krebs, machinist; J. +. Higgins, fore
man, and John Clark and Mary Charles,
bakers. The firm recently introduced ma
turaI gas into their ovens. and this morning
the persons named were engaged in expert
menting on the manufacture of new line
of goods. The gas had been turned off
probably an hour, and about II a. m. En-
gineer Stafford advanced to the mouth of
the oven TO relight it. Instantly there was
an explosion and the flames shot out of the
mouth of the oven, enyeloping all in the
room. Stafford and Higgins, who were di-
rectly in front of the oven. were burned in
a terrible manner, and, it is feared, inhaled
the gas. in which case death is inevitable.
The others had their clothes almost burned
from their bodies, but were not fatally in
iured. The explosion created intense ex-
citement in the neighborhood and a large
crowd quickly gathered. The room being
fire proof confiagration was averted. The
unfortunates were Immediately removed to
the West Pennsylvania hospital, where at
last accounts they were resting easy. 1t is

A Snake That plays the Piano.

A family residing in Soho, Pa. has per-
haps the most singular pet in the United
States. 1t is a garden snake. and perhaps
measures two feet in length. 1t was found
among some fiower-pots on a window-sill
one morning, and, as the family have never
had the aversion to snakes which is so
general, it was allowed to remain in the
house and soon became domesticated. Its
name is Cleopatra, and it comes gliding
over the floor to whoever calls it. 1t is very
affectionate, and constantly sleeps with
some of the younger members of the family;
but perhaps its most singular attribute is its
love for music When anyone plays it
Immediately draws near the piano, and
never rests contented until placed ON top OF
the instrument.
Recently the family were surprised to
hear some odd musical notes proceeding
from the parlor. They formed tune
something like ''Sweet Violets," which
has long been favorire air and frequently
played by one of the members of the family,
daughter aged 16, to whom Cleopatra is
very much attached. Upon proceeding to
the parlor the pet snake was found upon
the keyboard attempting to strike out the
notes on the keys with its tail. With a
little aid and much practice it has continued
its musical studies until it can now play
'sSweet Violets," Yankee Doodle" Hail
Columbia" and several other things. 1t is
fed entirely On milk and crackers soaked in
sweet tea.-EX.~

Cleveland VIII Not Go to Ohio.

SpGcldl 10 inc OiODS
WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.-The report
that President Cleveland is going to Ohio
to encourage the Democrats in the cam
paign there is not credited here. That is
not Mr. Cleveland's way. He is not much
inclined to take part i'll state politics any
way, and especially not i'll so public a
manner as this. No confirmation of the
story can be obtained here, while on the
other hand there is very good reason for
diSbelieving it. Mr.. Cleveland never had
much idea of making a travelling show
of himself for purposes. He does
not believe it pays. An interest
ing story is told here about
how he helped to decide against any cam
paign work Of this sort last fall. He was
not in favor of going in the field as his op-
ponent Mr.. Blaine, was doing, but there
were others who insisted that he ought to
do so, and he was finally pretty well per-
suaded to make brief tour. ''it will be re-
membered that q day was announced for
his departure from Albany for a tour
around the circle such as Mr.. Blaine was
making. Mr.. Randall had been all along
opposed to anything of this sort, but had
not counted upon such strong persuasion as
had finally been applied to Mr.. Cleveland
He had been in Washington and had just
returned from Philadelphia when he saw
an announcement that Mr.. Cleveland was
going to start OH tour of this sort. He did
not stop for anything. so the story goes, but
seizing his hat hurried to the depot and
took the first train to Albany. Arriving
there he visited Mr.. Cleveland and those
who had been urging him TO make the trip
and insisted that it be abandoned, telling
them, in his opinion, nothing could be
gained by it, but rather the reverse. This
had been Mr.. Cleveland's opinion all along,
but he had about concluded to yield to the
pressure of those who thought otherwise.
Mr.. Randalfs marked views and strong
presentation of them. however, aided him
III combating those who had insisted that
the trip ought to be made and was aban-
doned. The result everybody knows. MI
Cleveland, it is said, is strongly, impressed
with the idea that had the fip been under
taken the result would have been other
wise and that he would have been in Al
bany to-day, instead Of having his residence

happen to be players. This gives an idea
of the everyday life of Mr.. Cleveland in
the mountains, and when he gets back to
Washington. which will probably not be
before the middle of September, he will be
well prepared for the work that awaits him.
All rumors of his i'll health are laughed at
by the president, and stormed at by DR..
Ward, and his appearance justilies all that.
Variety is lent in the hotel life by
the visitors who come in from the
woods and shake hands with the
president. Sportsmen wonder at his
declaration that he would not give cent to
shoot all the deer in the Adirondacks, and
fishermen admire him because he says he
came to fish and carries out the program so
thoroughly. Many of the latter who know
how much a pocket flask can do to make
things pleasant when rain falls or the fish
will not bite, will want to know whether
the president sticks to the good old habit of
carrying a swallow with him. All that
could be learned was from guide. He
said, ''Well, in crossing carry the presi-
dent called out, Dec. are you sure you've
got that bottIe?' and smiled and looked
happier when the doctor winked." That
guide was snowy-haired, and too old to be
untruthful.

low. thirteen miles from here, on Saturday
night, w. e. Booth made an Intellectual at
tempt to kill two women and then killed
himself. He was married year ago to
Alice Montgomery against the wishes of her
parents. He took her to his fathers house,
where disaffection sprang up between his
mother and his wife. After a while he
joined his mother in maltreating his wife,
and the girls father took her home. Since
then he has made threats against her rela-
tives and has begged her to live with him.
and she refused. Saturday night, being in
toxicated, Booth went TO the house of Merritt
Willis, who married his wifes half sister,
and found his wife's mother, Mrs Mont
gomery, and Mrs. Willis eating midnight
lunch. He Immediately fired two shots at
Mrs. Montgomery and one at Mrs. Willis.
Both screamed and fell, and, Booth think
ing that he had killed both ran nearly to
his fathers house, and there shot himself
through the head. He was an only son of
a respected farmer, and had been well edu-
Gated. A paper in his pocket outlined his
purpose of murder and suicide. Mrs. Mont
gomery was not hit. Mrs. Willis received
glancing wound in the side.
