WHAT AN EYEWITNESS SAW.
The flame Swept by Him, Although He
Was 600 Feet Away.

Ihe liame swept by Him, Although He
Was 600 Feet Away.
Accounts of the explosion as given by
eye-witnesses do not differ greatly in de-
tail. One of these witnesses, Robert Curdy.
said Saturday night: Il think the force of
the explosion must have spent itself in my
direction. Although 1 was GOO feet away
when the accident occurred, the flame
swept by me and passed in sheet over my
horse and rig, which were standing near. /
can hardly describe the noise; it was not
like cannon, nor like thunder, but more
as the rushing of mighty force of air.
Looking arouu nd me saw boys and men
running in all directions through the fields.
One man headed toward me- did not
recognize him, but l called to him to stop,
which he did.
Tried to Cut on His Clothes.
Il had my knife in hand, and as he halted
/ rushed upon him and cut and slashed
away through the sheet of flame until
there remained not a vestige of his original
hahiliments. tried with my voice to con-
sole him as with my hands did what /
could to alleviate his pain. He recognized
my voice and with his burned and sight
less eyes turned toward me he managed to
inform me that he was my old friend
of his coat the skin of his hand came off
like glove l threw dust over him and
rolled him in the dirt. Others hurrying
up took him in charge and, bundling him
into a wagon, bore him TO his home in AL
ton.
Horrible Agony of Boy.
"Over near the house on the embank-
ment and to the west of the scene of the
horror continued Mr.. Curdy, ~lay the
smouldering remains of a boy of IA or Is
years of age. 1t is supposed his name was
Hagerman. / shouted to the fleeing ones
to walk, not run; running but famed
the flames. Hurrying on overlook Willie
Mccarthy, lad of 49, After had done
all could for him, and with scarcely bit
of clothing left on him, he lay down, and

multitude of tender and sympathetic care
