A Fatal Powder Explosion.

Thursday morning terrible fatal
powder explosion occurred in the
store of Robert Hall, at Franklin
The building is small frame, and
stands facing the railroad and is
used for depot, postoflice and store.
A counter runs the length of the
store on each side, one side being
used for groceries and heavy arti-
cles, and the other for dry goods,
shoes and the like. The latter coun-
ter was open beneath, and under it
was kept several kegs of mining
powder. In the morning several
men and boys were in the store sit
ting around the stove, IS it was too
cold to be out. when Clarence Neff
came in and bought some stogies,
and in stepping up to the counter,
he took position directly over a
powder can that was partially open.
Robert Hall handed NefF the sto-
gies and struck match and in
reaching it over the counter to him
accidentally let it fall. Knowing
that the powder was in close proy-
unity, he made an effort to catch the
match but failed and it fell in the
open powder can, and instantly there
was a terrific explosion, hurting
goods and men in every direction.
People rushed to the scene of the
accident and the wounded men were
carried out. Robert Hall was blown
through the building and his clothes
were entirely burned off ana his body
was so badly burned that large
pieces of flesh dropped from his
bones, ind he was so blackened and
charred that he was almost unrecog-
nizable. He was still living at this
writing but can not possibly recover
Clarence Ncf was blown some dis
tance and badly burned about the
face and head. His head is terribly
swollen, his eyes being entirely clos
ed, end he is suffering much but il
is thought he will recover. A small
son of Mr.. w. T. Smith WIS severe
ly hurt. He is badly burned and
received a heavy blow from a piece
of flying timber from the wrecked
building. Pat Meehan, Jacob Weiss
Ben Williams, Otto Ault and a son
of James Greenwood, who were in
the store at the time, were more Oh
less burned, but none of them severe

Hoods Sarsaparilla
OBITUARY.

DIED.-Suddenly, at her home neal
Brownsville, on Thursday morning
18th inst, Mrs. DIADEaI3IA Pool, tht
wife of Isaac Pool, aged 81 years
l month and Ii days.
She was taken from n smiling home,
And from the happy hearth:
And gather'i up in clustering bands,
Like flowers of the earth.
Death sewers all those tender links
That made our pathway bright;
But mild religion bid us look
Beyond the clouds of night.
Though wetogether ne'er shall tread
The paths which once we trod,
Our parted hearts will meet again,
When we have gone To God.

Fatal Accident.

A most distressing accident oc-
CURED at the Kentucky pier of the
channel span Of the Southern Rail
road bridge at Cincinnati on Mon
day of last week, whereby Capt.
VIM. Rutter, well known citizen
of this county, lost his life. The
circumstances surrounding the ac-
cident are somewhat peculiar. Mr..
Rutter has for many years been a
dealer in produce which was bought
along the upper Ohio and disposed
of along the lower waters of the
Mississippi and Ohio. According
to his usual custom he started south
few days ago with cargo sof q
400 barrels of apples. He expected
to remain South all winter, and was
accompanied by his wife and two
children. The produce boat of Capt
Rutter's was being towed by the
Steamer H. F. Frisbie. Unfor.
tunately in passing under the bridge
the tows struck the pier, and while
two barges Immediately sank the
particular barge of Capt. Rutters
was discngaged and foated dowr
the river. The Frisbic immediately
pursued and on capturing the barge
then learned of the fatality.
Mr.. Rutter was subject to hear
disease. and it is supposed that tn,
shock of the collision brought OF
an attack of the malady and thai
he expired Immediately.
Mrs. Rutter and children imme
diately returned with the remains
to Clarington, where they were in
tered.
Mr.. Rutter was between sixty ant
seventy years of age, and was il
high business standing, not only il
this County, but along the river
where he has been engaged in bust
ness for SO long.

Messrs Editors Of Spirit:
In looking over your paper of the
30th, of November, / see the state
ment that B. II. Mallory had gone
South to be gone three months, OF
more, which is incorrect. He left
here on or about the 18th of Novem-
Der, intending to return by the first
of December, but owing to deten-
tion by heavy winds, will not be at
home until about the 10th of Decem-
Der. After that time anyone having

OBITUARY.

The 25th of November, at II
o'clock a. m, Edward Wohnhas, son
of Jacob Wohnhas, died in Ridge
vile near Sardis.
He was born the I'd day of Feb
ruary, 1862. The funeral took place
on the Goth. under the leadership of
the West Union Church, Of which
he was member. Numerous friends
followed the remains to the grave.
The sickness with which he died
was very long one. Five weeks
ago he came back from the west
where he had gone for the purpose
of improving his health. Unfortu-
nately the result of this trip was
not the wanted one. He came home
weaker,and from that on grew worse
rapidly.
He is no longer with us; he lives
in higher regions with his father
who died five years ago, in regions
where there is eternal pleasure and
eternal happiness.
To his parents he was true son:
to his brothers and sisters good
brother. His friends will never for
get him. He was christian in the
full meaning of the word, and as
such one he will stay in the re-
membrance of all his friends.

Church was, financially and every other
way, complete success. The programme,
consisting Of come songs, solos, quarte;tes
and select readings, was admirably gotten
up, and rs admirably. carried out by the
participants All Of ,hr exercises were so
well rendered, that it is difficult to select
ahv part Tor specia! mention. Little Miss
Orem's solo "rhe Spider and the Fly"
was highly appreciated, Albert Smiths
"Im Baptist till die" shook the house,
and the quar,c,,e, Pro PEundo Basso WAS
encored. The select reading, or rather rec.
itation, BY Mrs. Na~Io!l>, Of u soldiers

pathos. Miss Matte Rnc sung "Nobody's
Darling as sweetly as any darling could,
and Miss M&ud Lamont and Master Craig

Sweets and were made to repeat twice.
Mrs. Mclton's singing Of "Mother calls

The audience. She has a sweet soprano
voice, over which she has perfect control
But the whole programme was excellent
The only time the audience felt weasiei
was when the last chorus WAS sung.
After the concert, an excellent supper
was served. We did not partakc, but are
sure the chicken could not be surpassed,
for we over heard gentleman, who was
trained in his youth for the Methodist
ministry, remark as he smacked his lips
over Il short joint, that it was the best
chic zen pie he had ever eaten.
