SUFFERINGS ENDED BY DEATH.
The Fourth Fatality Resulting From a
Recent Mine Explosion.


ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.i
CARBoNDALE, September 15.-Andrew
o. Nicol, Superintendent of the Delaware
and Hudson collieries in this valley, who
was burned in the recent explosion at the
Oliphant coIliery, died from his injuries
yesterday. This is the fourth death result
ing from the accident, but his Is
the outcome of an act of hero;sm seldom
paralleled. When the fatal explosion was
over it left Mr.. Nicol and his four assist
ants with their lights gone out and thelr
clothes on fire The fire then had to be ex-
tinguished by rubbing the woolen clothes
between their already burned hands. When
Mr.. Nicol could stand the additional burn
ing no longer he tore his coat with his teeth,
burning his mouth badly. Then, in the In
tense darkness, burned, bleeding, bruised
and sore, they started for the foot OF the shaft,
a mile and a quarter distant.
Mr.. Nicol guided the party by sliding
one foot along the rail. When, owing to an
old hurt he was obliged to give that up, he
ran his burned hands along the rail until
the flesh was worn off the finger tips. The
others gave out and wanted to lie down and
die, but his indomitable will kept the party
in motion, and toward the last he dragged
one of the men by his collar with one hand
while feeling his way along the mine with
the other. 1t seems almost as though human
nature could not have endured the agonies
of that half hours walk in the fearful dark
ness, continually banged and bruised as
their burned bodies were by coming in con-
tact with the obstacles they could not see or
feel until thev struck them.

A MICHIGAN EVANGELIST.
He Begins Series of Revival Meetings In
the Southside Rink.

He Begins Series of Revival Meetings In
the Southside Rink.
The mammoth roller rink at the corner OF
Carson and South Twenty-second streets was
crowded last night, fully 1000 people being
present. The occasion was the first OF .
series of revival meetings, held under the
auspices of Major J. H. Cole, of Adrian,
Mich, who has acquired considerable evan
gelistic fame at home and abroad as a CO.
worker with Dwight L. Moody.
Rev. B. R. Wilbur opened the exercises
by saying that the different pastors of the
Methodist, Baptist and Presbyterian
churches had combined and resolved to AID
the Major IN making the revival success.
A choir of about 100 voices, composed OF
the leading singers Iof:the aforementioned
churches, under the leadership of Prof.
John Jones, OF the Nineteenth Street
Baptist Church, sang appropriate hymns.
The feature of the evening was the address
of Major Cole. The Major is magnetic
and attractive speaker, and sways the emo
tions of his auditors almost at will. In the
course of his remarks he dwelt largely upon
the efficacy of prayer and its beneficial re-
suits. He related many touching incidents
that came under his personal observation
during his evangelical tours in England
and America.
The services will continue nightly for the
next two weeks, and possibly longer.

ATLANTIC CITY'S SCARE.
Twenty-Six Leading Citizens of the Place
Say 1t Was False.

Twenty-Six Leading Citizens of the Place
Say it Was False.
From the Philadelphia Evening Buletin.I
The following unvarnished statement con-
cerning the recent storm at Atlantic City,
signed by 26 of the most prominent citizens
of the place, may be of interest:
''The damage to sailing craft and to prop
erty on the water front has been extensive
and probably not over-rated. Several small
dwelling houses recently built out on the
meadows have been washed away from their
foundations. That part of the city, includ-
ing the business streets, and nineteen
twentieths of the hotels and boarding
houses, extending from the Lighthouse to
Florida avenue, distance of 20 squares,
and from Arctic avenue to within 100 feet
of the boardwalk, distance of about three
squares, has almost wholly escaped damage,
with the exception of few fallen trees and
fences, some injured roofs, and a number of
wet cellars. 1t has not been submerged and
there has been no real danger at any time
that it would be, though when the tide was
highest some of the cross streets have been,
and these few overfowed nearly to Pacific
avenue.
"Water was turned off by one of the
water companies, because of salt water in
the supply basins, and was turned on again
as soon as word could be communicated to
the pumping station. The other company
has continued its ample supply as usual.
The sewerage system has been in constant
operation, Notwithstanding a slight break
in the well, and no sewerage has been backed
up into the town; all reports that such was
the case, and that people were leaving on
account of it, are absolutely false. During
the entire time the town was not without
light as reported, as there was an ample
supply Of gas, and but one night was there
trouble with the electric lights The stop
cation caused inconvenience and anxiety to
many, but no real suffering resulted from
any cause whatsoever

A BOMB IN THE STOVE.
An Allegheny Woman Badly Burned by n
Peculiar Explosion.

Peculiar EXPLOSION.
A peculiar explosion occurred last
evening in the house at No. IA Barnett
alley, Allegheny. The house is occupied
BY Mrs J. E. Howells, a widow. She rents
from Mrs. Nancy Norris, who lives in the
rear. When Mrs. Howells was preparing
supper the fire in her kitchen stove became
low. She sent her little girl into the back
yard to get kindling. The child brought
back, with some wood, an oblong article,
about the size of goose egg, covered with
wicker work of split bamboo. 1t looked
like small basket, but was, in reality, a
japanese bomb, used for fireworks. The
girl said that Mrs. Norris gave it to her.
few minutes later Mrs. Howells put it into
the stove. Mrs. Howells was standing in
front of the stove when the bomb exploded.
1t created loud report and filled the house
with smoke and the smell of gunpowder,
while smoke issued from the windows and
doors. The stove was blown to pieces, the
fragments flying all about the apartment,
making deep indentations in the plaster of
the walls. Burning Goals and hot ashes
were thrown upon Mrs. Howells' feet and
ankles, aud they were badly burned. A
little boy named Smith stood against the
wall beside the stove. Pieces of iron cut
into the wall all around him, but he was
unscathed. Mrs. Norris denied that she
gave the bomb to Mrs. Howells' child, and
SAYS that the girl found it in the yard.

LINCOLN AND THE PREACHER.
How the Former was Affected by Prophecy
of the Latter.

How the Former Wds Anected Dy q ffopnocJ
of the Latter.
Lewistown, ILL.,. Special to the Globe Democrat
At harvest home celebration, held near
this place yesterday, Rev. DR.. Haney, a
pioneer Methodist minister, of Canton,
related the following reminiscence of Abra-
ham Lincoln. 1t has never been published,
and its accuracy is vouched for by one or
two Methodist ministers of Fulton county:
At county meeting not far from Spring
field, some years before the war, 1t was
known that Rev. Peter Akrees would
preach. He was celebrated for the power and
prodigious length of his sermons. He was
the minister who dedicated the old Metho-
dist church in Lewistown in 1849, and his
sermon was just three hours long. A car
riage load of prominent Springfield lawyers
went out to hear the great preacher LIN
coin was one OF the party. His theme was
'The Sin of Slavery" He portrayed It's
horror in vivid color. He prophesled tnat
God would wash away this crime of crimes
In blood. He predicted the war, and with
prophetic accuracy described its terrors.
But he put off its date some years. 1t was
a startling and thrilling sermon.
Few hearers sympathized with the
preachers views They regarded the ser
mon as the idle frothings of a harmless old
.Abolitionist. AS the lawyers rode home
they chatted gayly about the absurd fears
of the preacher. They expected to see
railroad built to the moon before any civil
war would happen in this country. But
Lincoln was silent and thoughtful. AT last
they rallied him.
"What do you think about it. Abe?" they
asked
'Well," he replied, "I confess that I
have never before been so deeply i'm
pressed by human utterance. I have never
thought we should have war over slavery or
any other question. But those utterances
to-day seemed to come from far beyond the
preacher. They came to me as real and
awful prophecy. More astonishing than all
and you may laugh if you will-I.seemed
to be thrilled in my very soul with the con-
viction that am in some way to have tre-
mendous responsibility in that coming and
awful war;"
Mr.. Lincolns solemn manner impressed
his hearers, as usually he was the happiest
in any company. 1t was only few years
until Father" Akree's prophecy and Mr..
Lineoln's remarkable impression were fully
verified.

They Meet and Form n Federation to Carry
Out Their Objects.
The anti-ProhibitionistS of the Southside
met again last night in the Iron and Glass
Bank building. There was a fair attend
ance and the audience was enthusiastic.
George Fritz was chairman of the meeting
and Jacob G. Klein secretary. The name
of the association was changed to
the Southside Liberty Federation.
An address was prepared to
send to all German societies in Pitts
burg and vicinity. 1t requests them to act
independently in politics, to aid in extend
ing the influence of this organization, from
which all secular and partisan political
views will be absolutely excluded; to stir
up universal activity among the Germans
and bring out good men for office regardless
of political creeds. Each German society is
invited to send three delegates to meeting
of the federation on September %, in the
Iron and Glass Hall.

River DweIIers.
Mayor Pearson, of Allegheny, has de-
cided to clean out all the lighthouses along
the Allegheny wharf, and will make the
occupants either float them somewhere else
or abandon them.
He has decided to take this step on ac-
count of the numerous complaints against
the jo-boat dwellers from time to time, and
although some of them NAV be above sus-
picion, he intends to make no dis
tinction and will Danish all at once.
Yesterday morning at 8 o'clock some of his
officers caught a lot of men in a wagon
loaded with beer driving out the Brighton
road and raising racket. At the hearing
it was developed that they were all residents
of jo-boats on the Allegheny. The men
were fined.
Allegheny has seven miles of water front
and In that distance there are perhaps $50
house boats" with at least 600 residents.

NEW YORK, September 15,-In short
time the Navy Department will sell to the
highest bidder the sloops of war Juniata
and Quinnebaug. The latter vessel is now
at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. She was COM
pleted at Philadelphia about IL years ago.
The Juniata was built 27 years ago, and
returned from the Asiatic station at about
the same time as the Quinnebaug from the
Mediterranean. She was used in the Civil
War, and led the feet which went in search
of the Polaris survivors in 1873. Both ves-

HE is NOT BEN. FRANKLIN.
A Fellow Fired Who Got a Customs Position
Under That Name.

Under That Name.
PHILADELPHIA, September 15.-It was
learned yesterday afternoon that Frank,
commonly known as "Bat" Harold, had
been bounced" from his lately secured po-
sition as one of the "chance men" in the
weighing department of the Custom House.
A call upon Collector Cooper by a reporter
resulted in the information that Harold mad
been put upon the chance roll August %
under the name of Benjamin Franklin. A
downtown politician had recommended
him, and the Collector is now after this man
for it.
Chief Weigher Dietz learned yesterday
morning who Benjamin Franklin" really
was, and promptly removed him. The DO
sition held by Harold was not particu-
larly desirable one, as it paid him only 81
or s. week, but if he had remained might
have led to something better Collector
Cooper considers the way Rarold's appoint
ment was secured as an imposition upon the
Collectors office.
