The lntel"upter tins week has a
long ligmarole ablut the p. 0.
squabble. in which the names He.
man and Cafrey simmer and
scintilate in every other line. From
the beginning we have had moth
ing to do in this fight, holding
that democrats should skin Their
own skunks. We never knew that
Col. Heman had taken any interest
in the premises until the Inter rupt-
er published Joseph's letter, nor
other relative fact save that the
grand Jury clerk had made an aff-
davit, which we did not see. but
was informed that it sustained Col.
IIeman's charzes. "Only this,
and nothing more" AS we said
weeks ago, we don't care a darn
who is Postmaster, and have no
choice which link of the sausage
is preferred by the powers that

test, with more bulldog in lis COM

to our ears, as the sweet song, -

this afternoon another appalling disaster
was added TO the history of natural gas ex-
plosions A new gas well, known as the
McWilliams well, belonging to the Char
tiers Valley Gas Company located at Muir
rnysville, was being turned into the com
pany's main line at that point when the
connection suddenly broke and the
gas escaped in such volumes
that 1t almost instantly filled
the adjoining houses. The gas ignited in
the house Of VIM. Taylor, and a terrific ex-
plosion followed. The house was shattered,
aud was soon wrapped in flames. The in
mates Of the buildings, seven in number,
were quickly taken out and carried into,
neighboring houses The fire commune
Gated TO four other buildings, in
Guiding the postofiice and store,
and all were totally destroyed. The
fire ran back along the pipe to the wall,
burning the derrick and every thing sur
rounding IT, The villagers were wild with
fright, as il was feared at one time that
the entire town would be consumed. The
flames were, however, confined TO the five
buildings The victims OF the ex-,
plosion are Vim. Taylor, his wife and
two children: Mrs. Harry Taylor and
her three children, and Lille Lacock One
of the Taylor children and Miss Lncock arc
so fearfully burned that they can not live
more than few hours. All the others are
dangerously burned except Vim. Taylor,
who will recover. The loss on the build
ings and 70 the Gas Company will amount
to about $4,000.
