TERRIFIC FIGHT
between a Man and a Powerful
Newfoundland Dog.
FoarfuIiy Iacrrated About tho Throat, the
Man Is About to Give Up when His Wife
Hands Him Butcher knife.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. s.--Christ Hoelcher was
nearly killed Saturday evening by his two
yearold Newfoundland dog, which no had
raised 70 guard the promises at night. The
brute was vicious TO all except Hoelcher's
family, and was kept chained during the
day. On Ibis evening he was given tho
freedom OF the butchers back yard, and
when Christ claimed the right to rulc
there, and enforced his claim with kick,
the dog flew at him and n terrible
fight ensued for ten minutes,
in which four members Of the Hoelcher
family took part against the dog Tho
brute, weighing l6 pounds, notwithstand-
Ing the shower Of blows rainod upon him
on all sides, seemed bent on Hoelchcr's
throat, aud pinned the strong butchers
left arm across his chest as he gnawed
10 the bone. Knocked down by tho
powerful blows OF the butcher. the
dog flew back nt his master and tore his
breast and sides with his sharp fangs
until the pain and loss OF blood weak
ened the man and he fell TO the ground in
the power Of the frenzied brute. Mrs.
Hoolchor's presence OF mind saved tho
man. Early In the fight she had procured
"a butchor.knife but was unable 10 use II
without danger TO her husband. The
blade was quickly passed 10 him. and In
Jifiy the dog fell dead, his hoad nearly
severed from his body. Hoelcher Is in a
very critical condition, his chest, neck and
arms being badly laeerated. His recovery
is thought 70 be very doubtful.

BLOWN TO PIECES.
Two Tons of Rlasting-Powder Ex-

Entire village Destroyed by the Coneus-

Persons Wounded.

WILRHsBARRE, Pa, Feb 10.-The entire
Wyoming Valley was thrown into conster.
nation Today by an explosion which was
felt distinctly for a distance Of fifteen or
twenty miles, and which was also percep.
tible for at least forty miles from
the scene of the disaster The trouble
occurred at the Wapwaliopen Powder
Works, situated in the mountains, twenty
miles from this city and fifteen
miles, distant from both Nanticoke
and Hazleton. Not house is
standing within one mile OF the
place where the explosion occurred. The
works destroyed belonged to the Duponts,
OF Wilmington, Del, and were used prin-
cipally for the manufacture of blasting
powder, which was supplied in great
quantities TO the many coal mines in the
vicinity. The explosion was the most
violent that ever occurred in the Wy
oming Valley. The force of the
shock was distinctly felt here. The
windows in all the buildings ratified and
officials at the courthouse say the big
building shook violently. At Nanticoke
and Wavamie chimneys toppled from the
roofs Of buildings, and children ran in ter
women fIocked toward the mines, where
they thought the explosion had happened,
and where the members OF their families
were at work At Shikshinny the
glass in almost every window was
broken, and many persons were
thrown to the ground. At Hazelton tho
entire town was thrown into the most in
tense excitement Every body at once
ran into the streets, supposing that gem
sral cave-in OF the town was about TO oc-
cur. Word was speedily received, AT
Wapwallopen nearly every building
was damaged or wrecked, the latter
including the new Methodist Church,
which had only been dedicated last
week, and stood three hundred feet
from the scene OF the explosion. The
explosion occurred in the packing
house, where about two tons of what is
known as giant powder, an explosive used
almost wholly by the coal miners, were
stored. The cause of the explosion OF
course will never be told The conclusion
was terrific, and every thing was leveled
In second. Four men we're instantly
killed, they being blown TO pieces, and
their remains were gathered up far from
the scene Of the accident and placed
In boxes. The can.house situated
about one hundred yards away
from the packing.house, was demolished,
and only one person of the ten employed
there escaped injury. Besides the killed
over forty persons were slightly injured
by fragments Of flying glass or other
debris The cause Of the accident is not
known, as all those who were in the build
ing are dead

unseaworthy TO navigate the lakes and in.

tenths of the large loss OF life and property
on the lakes last season was due to the

these waters. The lakes are literally alive
