SERIOUS EXPLOSION.

Mr.. Harvey Long, OF h Register
Burned by Natural Gas.
At half. past eight o'clock last evening
an explosion of natural gas occurred in
the press room of the REGISTER establish
ment, which shook the building like a
young earthquake, and was heard for sew
eral blocks away. A crowd soon gathered
about the front of the building, and an
excursion being made into the press room,
where everything was in tota! darkness,
by the employees of the counting loom, it
was found that the .pressmsu, Mr.. Harvey
Long, bad been caught in the flash Of the
gas, and was severely burned about the
head, face and hands. He had made his
way 10 the press room door when assist
ance arrived, and he was quickly taken TO
another part of the building, where a ply
sician was summoned, after which he was
removed to his residence, No. As South
Broadway, Island, in q cab.
Mr.. Long entered the press room a few
moments before the explosion, and he
and his assistants were making prepare
tions to start the press. Having occs-
sion to enter the little room, apart
from the main press room, where the
boiler, used for heating the building by
steam in winter, is located, he picked up
a torch and opened the door. Just ss he
did 20, there was q binding flash of gas,
and a report which sounded like that Of
q cannon. Mr.. Long fell backward, and
his cries for help not bringing immediate
aid, owing to the confusion aud the extin-
gushing of the lights, he made his own
way, almost blinded and suffering great
pain, to the door, where he was fouDd, rs
stated. Fortunately, hs did not inhaie the
flash, and equally fortunate, he had on
a double flannel shirt which saved his
body from the fire. His face and hands
were severely burned, however. his eye
brows and mustsche burned OF, his eyes
temporarily injured. and his hair well
scorcle6.
An examination showed that some one
had entered the press room during the in
teryal between six O'Clock and bali. past
seven or eight, and either maliciously or
from mere curiosity, turned on the valve
which supplies nstugal gas to the boiler.
This had been accommodating during the
evening, in the little boiler room, and
when Mr.. Long opened the door, with the
torch in his hand, the explosion occurred.

SWEET REVENGE
SECURED BY THE HoHK TEAM YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON.
rbs Cantonese are slaughtered BY King kuaus
While aKid" Monroe is Touched Up Pretty
Eydy-0thG Games.

Mr.. Monroe evidently thought he had
the Wheeling team at his mercy, 60 he
want in the box for Canton again yesterday
afternoon. and then he discovered that he
had made q good, large-sized mistake at
least for once. The home team got onto
him and hit the ball at op%portune times,
and thereby won sweet revenge from the
Cantonese, assisted by their errors
For the third time Frank Knauss shut
the Csntops out without q M very
few hits. Frank was invincible and had
the opposing team at his mercy. He was
superbly supported both in the field and
behind the bat, and the two errors made
by Kuauss amounted 10 very little. The
people who stayed away yesterday missed
one of the protest, cleanest games Of
the season on the psrt of the home team,
and the 200 people who saw it were very
plsd they went. Of course the threaten
ing weather had much to do with the slim
crowd.
Wheeling commenced rnn getting in the
first when Nichol got his base on
Delsney's bad throw, stole second and
went to third on Yaik's hit to second and
out at first. Swift got D baee on balls.
stole second ard both scored on Van Sant's
hit.
Ia the third Swift hit safe, went to
second on Vests out at first and scored on
Van SAINTS hit. In the sixth Van led on
| with another hit, Stencil got o life on his
ont at second. went TO third on Monroe's
bad throw to first and scored on Brodie's
| hit. .,
In the seventh Michel bit cafe and
scored on Ysik's hit. Yak went to
second on the throw home, to third on
Swih's put out and scored on Sterzel's hit
TO short. In the eighth Knauss hit safe,
went to third on Nichols two-bsgger and
scored on q wild pitch. .
The visitors got very few men as far as
first and only one or two to second. Fol-
lowing is the score:
