BURNED ON ELECTRIC WIRES.
Shocking Accident to Tinsmith-His
 Death Probable


 Death Probable. New York, July 30.-Michael Ennis, a tinsmith, while at work this morning re- pairing cornice on the building, No. 307 Third avenue, fell upon a network of electric light wires and before he could be removed was terribly burned about the head and body. Two men who tried to lift him from the wires also re- ceived severe electric shocks.
 Ennis was working in a space only about eighteen inches wide, mending the cornice. The building in which he was at work is next door to the New York Opthalmic hospital, Third avenue and Twenty-third street. Just at the point where the two buildings join, several electric light wires enter, which is used to reduce the voltage of the currents before they enter the building. The break in the cornice was close to this instrument, and 1t is supposed that Ennis lost his balance and fell over on the wires. One of them struck him on the neck and another under the lief. arm. A circuit was thus formed and the unfortunate man could not extri- cate himself. His clothes began to burn, and someone on the sidewalk seeing the smoke rang fire alarm. Because of the hnt t0h of hn %Lo could not be seen from the street, but passengers on the elevated railroad platform discovered his position, and an ambulance call was immediately sent to Bellevue hospital
 Meanwhile persons in the building had discovered the cause of the smoke, but at first did not dare go near the wires until Dr. Hugh Kidder, of the hos pital next door, hearing of the accidsnt, went to the mans rescue and tried to drag him off of what was proving veritable gridiron. The doctor was severely shocked in the attempt, but pluckily kept hold of Ennis. whose clothes were blazing. Dr. Kidder is slight man, and he could not lift En- his. Finally William Kelly, No. 292 First avenue, who was near by, went to the physicians assistance, and the two men lifted Ennis along to the near est window. Once inside they tore off the mans burning garments and carried him to the hospital annex, from which he was soon taken to Bellevue hospital,
 Ennis was conscious nearly all the time he was on the wires, and seemed to be suffering fearfully. His recovery is said to be doubtful. A crowd of per- sons had time to gather on the street before the rescue was accomplished, and they watched the spectacle with .breathless interest.

IN THE HOUsArOyIC VALLEY.
Some old Blast Furnaces.

The following article on old blast furnaces in the Housatonic Valley Is taken from the Berkshire News;
 The iron industry in the Housatonic ty, As early as i73t il is said that bloomary forge was erected at Lime Rock. in Salisbury. and il Is certain that before l740 the Livingstons of New York province had in successful operation at Ancram a blast furnace and a refinery forge. In i762 the cele- brated Ethan Allen. with two assoei- ates. built a blast furnace at Lake vile. which within n few years fell into the hands Of one Richard Smith. of Hartford. who. being A royalIst. was compelled to flee to England during the Revolution. although the works were kept in active operation by the colony Of Connecticut during that period. pro- ducing great quantities Of cannon. can non balls, shells etc., for the use of the Continental army. The blowing appa- ratus Of this furnace consisted of a large leather bellows driven by a water ! "HtNis kut luIIluCt III Berkshire county was that formerly ex- isting at Lenoxville. which was built in l7s6. and made iron the following year This establishment continued in inter mittent operation for more than cen- tury. not having been demolished until about 1881. During the most prosper ous period of the iron industry in this region 1t Is said that twenty-seven fur naces were in full operation within a radius of thirty miles of Lakeville, the greater part of these being in Litch- field county. The long acceptance, without effective protest. of an indus trial policy which has been deliberate ly designed to build up the industries of Pennsylvania at the expense of those of New England, has one by one put out these furnace fires, until at the present day only few are left.
 | Prior to 1S40 all the iron made in the United States was smelted by the use of wood-charcoal as fuel. The loca- tion of furnace was originally deter mined by the existence of a sufficient water power in convenient proximity to trustworthy source of ore supply, 1t being fortunate circumstance that wherever iron ore Is found. 1t is sure to be accompanied with plentiful depos- Its of limestone for use as Aux. In those days the use of a stationary steam engine as motve power for any purpose was very rare. The unusually good quality and great abundance of the hematite iron ores of Berkshire and Litchfield, the frequently occurring wa ter powers and the vast tracts of for est which covered the rugged slopes of the Taconics and the Green Moun- tains, made this for more than a cen- tury an ideal region for the successful prosecution of this picturesque and in- teresting industry.

PLAINTILLE CAMP GROUNDS.

Notes from the Grounde-The old St. John
 Street Church Lot.
 Camp Grounds, Plainville, July ee.- These are stirring times on the en- campment from early morn until dew ey eve" the sounds of the hammer and saws are heard from those who are erecting the various new society and private cottages, which, when com pleted, will add materially to the beau ty of the grounds, especially on the in side circle of society cottages and tents.
 The Plainville and Middlefield socie- ties are erecting two of the largest and finest houses on the grounds, the sc- ciety at Plainville having secured the commodious lot formerly occupied by the St. Johns street church, New Ha- ven, situated between the First church, Hartford, and Southington. The Mid dlefield building is on their lot next south of the new Simsbury house. Bloomfield society has just completed a house which is a gem, located near the preachers stand, with broad veran- da where the people can sit and hear the sermon without leaving home
 Durham is also in the field and is putting up nice house on Bristol ave nue. Several others are being erected R. W. Lawrence of Plainville has just completed the most commodious and showy cottage on Hartford avenue in the encampment. The grounds are in fine order. The fine trees on the inner circle afford a complete shade over the auditorium.
 There is an unusual number of cot tagers now occupying their cottages. Wilbur Higgins and Burnen Carter and son and their families have been here since early in July. H. Cowlishaw and family of Hartford are among the re- cent arrivals New Haven, Meriden. Durham, Middlefeld, Waterbury, Farm ington, Simsbury, are among the socie- ties already represented on the ground. Next week a large number of cottagers are expected. Workmen are busy in making necessary preparations for the meeting which commences on Monday, August 6. Rev. Crandan J. North will preside. The largest meeting is antici- pated of any which has been held here for many years. The trains (except the express) on the New York and New England railroad will stop at camp sta tion from August to August 20, in elusive.

MUCH NEEDED ROUNDH0USE
CONTRACTS FOR IT WILL PROBABLY
 HE LET THIS WEEK.

When Compieted Engines win Not be Let
 in the Open Yard When out of use-rhe
 Dimensions win be Practically the same
 as the Present Round House-Wtn As-
 comodats Thirty -four Engines.
 The contracts for the construction of the new round house of the consolidat- cd road at this city will be let this week and in about two months will be ready for occupancy. It will be located on the corner of Hallock avenue and Lam berton street. near Cedar street. A large bank has been dug away 10 make a suitable place for It's site. This work Is now nearly completed. and !t will not be long before the building Is well under way.
 It will be in most respects like the old round house, the dimensions being ex- actly the same. There will be thirty four stalls for the locomotives. and each stall will be forty-eight feet long and twenty-four feet and six inches wide. The diameter Of the building will be one hundred and twenty-seven feet, and the circumference will be eight hundred and twenty-three. The new turn table will be sixty-six feet in diameter. The diameter of the turn table in the old round house is sixty feet.
 The floors in the building will be Of concrete work. The walls will be built of brick and iron with granite trim mings, while the roof will be built of iron and covered with slate.
 The equipment of the house will be modern and up to date in every respect Several firms are figuring on the work and it is expected that the bids will be opened and let this week Blakes- lee had charge of digging away of the bank and preparing the site for the building.
 This round house is an improvement which has long been needed by the rail road, but has been necessitated by the great increase of business during the past few years and the consequent pur- chase of many new engines Sundays. and whenever they are out of use, there is no place to keep them but let them stand in the open yard exposed to the weather, which is now pretty we'll over crowded at all times. So many engines will not be seen standing around in the yard on Sundays therefore, as soon as the new round house is completed It will be built under the general direction of Chief Engineer Curtis of the Con- solidated road.

JUST WHAT WE EXPECTED

The populists of Nevada are unable TO
account for the rousing majorities of the
republicans of OREGON at the last cleo
tion. The dispatches report that many
democrats voted for the republican tick
et, and strong democratic counties for
the first time in the story OF the state,
gave republican pluralities, all of which
shows that democrats who favor protsc
tion as we'll as free coinage are not
afraid to cut loose from Cleveland and
cast vote according to their convic-
tiops. As Oregon was the home Of the
crankiest of all populists, it vas fl
IDENTITY expected by the populists every
where that the republicans would be
slaughtered, but the returns show that
the good old time republicans did the
slaughtering, and did it in good shape,
too. Good bye, populists of Oregon!
Good bye, populists of Nevadal-Carss n
Tribune.
We would say good bye to the popu
lists of Arizona, but they are beyond
shouting distance in the rear with DO
possible hope of ever coming closer.
They are gone and the Grape on the
door is faded worn and almost forgotten.
There has been no grief over the de-
mise Of the party for the very good reas-
on that they left nothing to grieve over.
