GAS WRECKS A HOUSE.
Narrow Escape Of IN Aged Ak
ron Couple in a Serious
EXPLOSION.

Akron, O., Nov. 22.-An explosion of
gas yesterday nearly wrecked the house
of Henry A. Garrett at No. 531 West
Exchange street. Workmen had been
making some changes in a sewer and
hai disturbed the connections with
the gas mains in Garrett's house.
Mr.. Garrett smelled escaping gas and
went to investigate. He opened the
door from the kitchen to the front
basement and there was an explosion.
Every window and door in the house
was wrecked. The rear wall OF the
dwelling was pushed down from the
building and the connecting walls and
the house will have to be largely re-
built.
Garrett was knocked down and Sc.
verely burned about the face and
hands. He was badly bruised, but the
injuries are not serious. The worst
personal injury was sustained by the
old mans wife. She has been con-
fined to her bed for several weeks with
a fatal disease. The bedroom was over
the room where the explosion was.
The bed was thrown in the air sew
eral times but she was not thrown out.
An ambulance remryed her to the
house of relative. At first 1t. was
feared that she might die from the
shock. but she stood the ride in the
ambulance we'll and will probably ba
In no worse condition than before
The escape of both was almost mar
velous.

tion Of road are complete. The es-
Inmates of the engineers for grades
and rock-cutting and all tunnelling
are ready for examination by the con-
tractors.
The bids for the construction of the
road are already in. Those for the
new Ohio river bridge will be asked
for within 10 days.
TRAINS EARLY NEXT YEAR.
J. W. Patterson, chief engineer Of
construction for the new road, yester-
day said that there are no bitches in
the work under way. Everything is
moving along in q satisfactory manner
and progress has been unusually rapid,
owing to the remarkably favorable
weather for the work. The approach
of winter is not expected to interfere
much with the prosecution of the work.
With anything like open weather the
gangs of laborers can work as rapid
ly and as effectually as In the warm
weather. President Ramsey is also
we'll pleased with the progress on the
road. He is still confident that the
entry of his road to Pittsburg will be
within the time specified early in the
year.
The building of the Wabash bridge
at Mingo will make that point more
important junction than ever. Already
the Panhandle. Cleveland & Pittsburg
and Wheeling & Lake Erie roads
have functions there.

FRANKING PRIVILEGE
To Be Allowed Mrs. Mckinley
BY Special Act of
Congress.

A Washington correspondent of
the Cleveland Plain Dealer, says:
A number of personal letters from
Mrs. Mckinley to friends in Washing
ton have been going through the hands
of the local postoffice authorities re.
Gently. The letters were, of course,
stamped. ,...... .--.
One of the first bills to be presented
at the coming session of congress is
one to give Mrs. Mckinley a personal
franking privilege, such as has been
customary to confer on the widows of
deceased presidents. Mrs. julia Dent
Grant and Mrs. James A. Garfield are
the only widows of former presidents
now living to enjoy free use of the
mails.

Mckinley Memorial As
ISOLATION Meets.
CLASH IS Imminent
With the Washington Organiza-
tion-Sentiment Strongly
~. In Favor of the Home
City.

Judge William r. Day, Of Canton,
president of the Mckinley National Me-
mortal association, was in Clevelani
Thursday attending a meeting of the
association. There Is every evidence
of clash being imminent between
the Washington Memorial Arch asso
citation and the National, and this
phase Of the matter seems to have been
discussed at the Cleveland meeting.
The sentiment is strong in favor OF
-Canton's claims.
There were present at the meeting
Judge William r. Day, president; Sem
ator M. A. Hanna, William w. Con-
way, of Pittsburg; Colonel Myron T..
Herrick, and General Henry M. Duf-
field, of Detroit.
The secretary, Ryerson Ritchie, sub
mitted reports from many states OF
the union. showing gratifying progress
and that the appeal to the people to
provide funds for memorial at Can
ton is meeting with general and hearty
response. At the meeting the plan of
future work was fully outlined. Re-
ports have been received from every
state in the union, and In. most or
them auxiliary organizations have al
ready been perfected.
The expression of sentiment from
every quarter of the country indicates,
Mr.. Ritchie said, that the people desire
to make the erection of a monument
at the home of President Mckinley
their first duty, as it is well known
that he often expressed to his family
and intimate friends his desire to be
buried at Canton, where already repose
the remains of his children, and where
his beloved wife will rest when she has
departed this life.
In Difference to this sentiment as well
as the propriety of the occasion, as
evidenced in the monuments provided
for the presidents, Lincoln and Gar
field, it will be the purpose of the as
sociation to carry forward the work Of
providing for such a memorial at his
home. Should more funds be sub
scribed than are necessary for the pur-
pose of erecting a memorial compatible
with the dignity and simplicity of the
late presidents life and character any
surplus will be devoted. to a national
memorial, at Washington. 80
letter from Secretary Gage, treas
urer of the Washington Arch associa-
tion, to Senator Hanna was laid before
the committee, but the questions in
volved in the communication were re-
ferred to the board of trustees at their
meeting to be held at Washington, De-
cember z, when 1t is hoped that any
possible differences may be adjusted.
1t was the sentiment of the members
of the committee present that provision
for a suitable memorial at Canton was
the first duty to be performed. This
purpose is believed to be in accordance
with the wishes of the family and near
personal friends of the president. A
reply to Secretary Cages letter en-
bodying the above sentiments was for
warded to him.

CAUGHT A DOG
When They Set Q Trap for the
Much Wanted Panther at
West Brookfieid.
Massillon, November rs.

Massillon, November rs.
The panther, which terrorized West
Brookfield for some time, has not been
ON a rampage for some days but the
people of that place have not forgot
ten that the beast was active for
time. For few days no one has seen
the beast or found traces of its depra-
dations, and. 1t Is thought 1t has left
the community. Whether the beast
was really panther or not has not
as yet been demonstrated beyond d
doubt, although the descriptions given
by those who saw the beast tally we'll
with those of a panther.
If 1t were not panther 1t Is certain
that some strange wild beast was at
large near West Brookfleld for more
than week. This is certain from the
evidence submitted by Mr.. Miller who
saw the animal in his barn for the
first, and whose son later shot and
wounded 1t.
Friday night some. who think the
beast is still in that vicinity. set O
large steel trap at hay stack on the
Miller farm which place the panther
II such 1t was, was supposed to fire.
quent. Saturday morning when the
people who set the trap visited 1t, they
found not panther but great blacl
and white dog fast in the RELENTLESS
steel jaws. Tho dog was not recog
nized as the property of any one liv
ing in that community. The anima
was released with some difficulty
showing bad temper from its Ions
confinement In the trap.
The trap was set again and 1t ]
hoped there will be larger game In !
soon. Mr.. Miller is sure that the an
imal he saw In his barn was not tn
dog caught in the trap, the color be
ing so much different as to attract In
stant attention.

warned them they would be shot if
they did, and as all knew he was a
crack shot, they did not attempt to
approach too close. Knutson told his
pursuers he would surrender Sunday
morning, and was taken at his word.
He first went to his home and later
surrendered there without a struggle.
The general opinion is that the
murderer is demented. In fact there
are many things that are now recalled
by those who have known him for the
past few years which point strongly to
this condition.
Coroner Harrison of Blanchard held
the inquest. Eight witnesses were
examined and the jury drought in a
verdict charging Knutson with the

day during a high wind. There was
no stock in the barn and harness
was the most property other than the
building, that was lost. Two men
were seen coming from the barn by
one Of the neighbors, Mrs. Renkert
just before the fire, but she could not
identify them afterward and it is
supposed that they could give some
information as to the fire. The barn
was completely burned and there was
no insurance. The hook and ladder
company went to the blaze and did
what was possible to save other prop
ertY.

on the tin covering over 1.-THE cylinder,
when it broke, letting him down onto
the rapidly moving instrument of de-
struction, and before it was possible
to draw him out or stop the motion Of

the most fond attachment for his
wife, patient at the hospital for a
number of years, and has done all
within his power to alleviate her con-
dition. His death will be generally
regretted.
Mr.. Young was first brought to the
asylum at this place, with the inten-
tion Of having an operation performed
there if the decision Of the physicians
was to that end. 1t was decided how

remaining at the hospital for a num-
Der of days he was returned to Fargo

DR.. Weir, He was not able to with
stand the same as the disease had
made great progress before. He lin
gered until today, when he passed

resided at or near Tower City for
the past twenty years. He has been
engaged in the lumper and farm i'm
plement business and occupied prom
inent seat in political affairs. He
was elected senator from his district
in '94 and '96 and acted as county COM
missioner, besides filling other posi-
tions Of public trust. He leaves a
widow who has been patient at the
insane hospital and while now at
home is in the care of attendants.
His only son, aged IA years, was pres
ent at the bedside of his father.
