TEARING DOWN THE STACK.
A lightning Rod Was Placed on it by the
Aid of Kite.

Lightning Rod Was Placed on IL by the
Aid of n Kite.
Jones & Laughin yesterday begun work
on the demolition of the boiler stack, in the
old department of their puddle mill in
Brownstown. The stack was one of the first
things built by the company, when they
located their small mill where the present
extensive works now stand.
The stack is built of brick, 140 feet high
and about 40 feet square at the bottom.
When it was erected, there was no provi-
sion made to put lightning rod on it.
After the scaffolding had been torn down,
this mistake was discovered and there ap,
peared no way to remedy it. An enterpris-
ing lightning rod agent came along, and
undertook to do the work by the aid of a
kite. He secured large flyer" and at
tacned light rope to it. This he cilcled
around the top of the stack until he made
it fast. He then attached larger rope to
the small one, and after considerable work
also got it up. Finally block and tackle
were hoisted up and by this means, the
agent hauled himself to the top. A light
scaffolding was begun and the rod was soon
placed in position. The stack will not be
rebuilt as the battery of boilers has been
discontinued.

A CHlLD'S PECULIAR DEATH.

The Case nm Extraordinary One in the
Medical Profession-Its Joints Ossified
and II Ate Very Little.
Yesterday afternoon Louisa Rosina Gam
per, the S-months-old daughter of Michael
Camper, of No. $50 Fifth avenue, was
buried in the Allegheny Cemetery The
child had been found dead in bed Th ursday
morning. The death was the result of a
peculiar affiiction.
Up until she was about four months old,
the dead child seemed to be unusually
healthy. Then it took sick. DR.. Scott was
called in and pronounced the illness sum-
mer complaint. The parents thought some
thing else was the matter, and called in
several other physicians, but the child got
no better. Gradually it grew worse. Its
skin became. covered with great blotches,
which seemed to grow larger each day. The
child lost almost all of its flesh, and its
joints grew stiff and appeared to become os-
sifed. Most of the time it lay in SEEM
ingly comatose condition, with its eyes wide
open and staring strai ght before it. Its
pulse could scarcely be felt beating. Once
it turned entirely black, then grew white
again, and again became colored. Most of
the time, the only daily nournishment 1t
took, was about three tablespoonsful of wine.

A QUICK OPERATION.
How the West Penn Hospital Doctors
Act in Cases Of Emergency.
THERAPID RUNOF TaEAMBULANCI
Great Care Exercised to Keep Small Insects
Out of the Wounds.
ONE CASE AT RANDOM WITH DETAILS

Yesterday the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company telephoned the West Penn Hos
pital for an ambulance, stating boys leg
had been badly crushed by q locomotive.
Immediate orders were given to take the
wagon to the Twenty-eighth street yard.
| When the message was received Superin-
tendent Cowan asked a DISPATCH reporter
if he would accompany the ambulance and
witness the operation. The reporter ac-
cepted the offer.
One and half minutes after the driver
received his instructions the doctor and re-
porter were almost flying through the air,
at the back of two high-bred Kentucky
mules.
The accident occurred at the far side OF
the yard. as approached from Twenty-eighth
street. When the scene of the accident was
reached just minutes and 30 seconds had
elapsed.
While Walter Stoughtrey, of 1852 Butler
street, messenger boy in the service of the
Pennsylvania road, was crossing the track,
a locomotive caught his leg and crushed it
in a frightful manner.
The boy was lifted into the ambulance,
and in minutes he was in the surgical
ward.
From the time the message was received
until the boy was in the hospital only
minutes and 30 seconds had elapsed.
TELEPHoNED FOR A SURGEON.
During the time the ambulance was away,
the Superintendent had telephoned into the
city for surgeon.
DR.. Hamilton Immediately responded to
the call. The house doctors while waiting
for the surgeon put the instruments in readi-
ness, prepared the various washes and
adjusted small hose to an elevated glass
tank full of bi-chloride of mercury from
1000 to 1000 per cent in strength.
AS soon as DR.. Hamilton arrived he
quietly turned back the blanket, disclosing
the boys leg, and calmly surveyed it. Just
below the upper joint of the right leg,
gum band had been tightly adjusted to pre-
vent flow of blood. Midway between the
upper and middle joints the flesh had been
completely severed and presented horri-
BILE appearance. The operating surgeon
gave orders to administer an anasthetic,
which done, the boy rested as calmly as if
in gentle slumber during the cutting and
saving off of his leg.
QUICK OPERATION.
The doctor performed the work with great
dispatch. After the leg was severed from
the body the stump was scraped very care
fully; the chloride of mercury was kept
flowing constantly over the wound to kill
any insects that might be drawn by the
wound. The doctors hold that the air is

shoots Himself in the Check.
Yesterday morning John Alder, a Ger
man boy, 10 years of age, was taken to the
Southside Hospital by Inspector McKelvey,
He was suffering from pistol shot in the
cheek. Alder has been in this country but
short time, and lived on Picnic street,
Twenty-seventh ward. he tried to find
work, but was unsuccessful and grew very
respondent.
The young man had been low spirited all
day Thursday. About half past IL O'Clock
that night his mother heard shot in his
room. Upon going there she found that he
had shot himself. The ball entered his
right cheek. A physician was summoned.
He had the boy taken to the hospital, where
it was found that the ball had entered the
cheek, passed upwards and lodged to the
right OF the eye. Up to last night the ball
had not been extracted, but it is not thought
that the boys injuries are necessarily fatal.

Bishop Fowler, of the NJ. E. Church,
passed through the city last night on his way
home, to San Francisco. He is the head of the
church in the extreme West, and has charge of
all the territory on the Pacific Slope. Bishop
Fowler has just returned fran a trip to China
and Japan, where he went over all the missions
OF the church in those countries. He says all
the missions established by the Protestant
churches there are in a fourishing condition
and doing good work among the natives. The
latter are rapidly being converted to Christian
ity, and churches are being built wherever
missions have been established. He saws
China is not a heather country. and to prove
this he cited number of cases in towns where
there were 10000 applicants for one literary
prize. He says the natural resources of the
country are fast being developed, although
mechanical innovations are looked upon with
suspicion. He predicts a great slaughter and
war upon Americans at no very distant day.
The cause of this is the treatment the Chinese
have been receiving in this country. He says
masses there are laying up their wrath, which
will soon be felt

Philadelphia commandery. No. will make
magnificent display with no less than 200 good

The Father Heaps Goals of Fire on Their
Heads by Forgiveness.
Theodore Kansingman, aged SIS, applied
for assistance to reach Cincinnati at the De.
partment of Charities yesterday. Some five
years ago he lived in Spring Garden ave.
nue., Allegheny, with his family. One day
his relatives, consisting of wife, sou,
daughter and son-in-law deserted him with
out canse or warning, and he could find no
reason for the heartless conduct. He sought
and obtained admittance to the most disin-
terestedly charitable of all institutions, that
of the Little Sisters of the Poor, where he
was kindly treated.
He, however, disliked to be an object of
charity. and going out into the rural dis
trict he hired out to farmer for 81 per
week and lodging. During nearly five
years he succeeded in saving little over as
many dollars, when lately, hearing that his
family was living in Cincinnati, he made
the application above referred to in order
to get means to see and bid his cruel and
unnatural wife and children farewell be-
fore he seeks rest in death. He was given
the assistance asked.
