Boiler Exploded.



4 y.aeir remains, but after an examine
tion, those first on the scene were
surprised to discover that not single
life had been lost.
The injured.
The fireman was found some several
feet from the engine room badly in
jured. He received a bad cash in bis
forehead and was otherwise injured,
and it was thought that he would not
live, but last night DR.. Hugh Burford,
the attending physician, announced
that the man seems to be slightly
improved. Henry Baskins, employed
at the mill, also received injuries, be-
Z ing struck by flying debris. He was
also scalded, but his injuries will nc
be fatal. Wash Baker was hit by
some of the lumber from the engine
house, and received several slight in
iuries. A colored woman, residing in
a house on Albany street, which was
damaged, was hurt, bat not fatal
Several others, in the neighborhood
of the mill were injured, and this is
the extent of the damage to people.
High Into the Air.
1t is surprising how the engine ever
flew out of its position without killing
those nearby. The boiler weighs in
the neighborhood of 5000 pounds. 1t
completely left it's position in the en-
eine room; flew high into the air and
landed about thirty yards away, only
a few feet from the track of the
Southern railway The boiler must
have shot out of the engine room
at a terrific speed to have gone this
far, and it is miracle how those
around escaped with their lives. 1t
landed on the grass and is now stand
ing head up. All except three or four
of the long tubes of the boiler were
blown out, and were scattered around
the yard. The entire engine house
was destroyed, the boiler taking most
of it along as it few through the
air
Houses Wrecked.
Just across the street from the
yard of the mill two or three houses,
occupied by negroes, present the ap-
pearence of a total wreck. The roofs
were knocked off, piazzas demolished
and the sides knocked away. Three
of the little cottages were almost de-
molished on Albany street. None OF
the occupants were seriously hurt.
The great mystery of the entire
accident was the destruction of two
houses on Albany street, in another
block altogether from the mill. A
large piece of the boiler, weighing
about 500 pounds, few clear over the
houses on Amherst street and land,
ed with terrific speed on the houses

Hurt-RemarkabIe That All
Were Not Killed.

An explosion occurred AZ Ander-
sons planning mill yesterday morning
about $3.50 O'Clock, which, ordinarily,
and nine times out of ten, would have
resulted in many people losing their
lives, but which, as strange as it is,
not single life was lost, and only
one person, Howard Hill, the colored
fireman. is seriously injured. The
yard of the mill, the fences, several
nearby houses and the engine room
present the appearance of the remains
of what looks like a severe earthquake
had struck the premises; pieces of the
boiler are scattered in every direc-
ton, brick from the engine room are
scattered for yards and yards, and
large pieces of wood from the engine
house are lying around in splinters.
Boiler Exploded.
The trouble was IA the bo;icr
room of the engine house. At the
above stated hour terrific explosion
was heard. Few people realized what
had happened. While the explosion

THE Last OF THE FAMILY.
Father and Three Sons in Prison the Fourth
Charged With Burglary.

The last of noted Wake county fam
ty of criminals has been lodged in iail
here, charged with a capital crime, bur-
glary. He is John Burch, a colored bow
OF thirteen years. His father and three
older brothers are now serving long terms
in the States Prison for the commission
of crimes of more or less magnitude.
One of the brothers, Tom Burch, will be
remembered as the burglar who entered
the grocery store of J. D. Turner &.
Co, about four years ago, and who was
caught and shot in the act. He succeed
ed in getting away but was arrested near
Cary a day or two afterwards. He is now
serving q Ions term sentence for this
crime There seems to be a strain of
mean blood in them. AS soon as they get
old enough each one of the boys has
committed crimes and all were finally
caught.
The crime which John Burt is charged
with is the burglary, with two other
boys. of the residence of Mr.. Chas. Al
len on the 18th instant. the residence OF
DR.. Pittenger on the 23rd and the resi-
dence of Mr. w. H. Hughes on Sunday
night The other two negroes are Heze-
kiah Jones, aged 16, and Chas, Ward,
age Il.
The youthful criminals would go around
in the early part of the night, between
and 8 o'clock. They would choose a
house which they had some reason to be-
lieve that the occupants were away. The
mode of entry was generally through a
rear window Nothing of bulk would be
taken, but they would choose small ar
ticles of value and clothing. Several peck
tebooks, some small currency and several
suits of clothes have been missed from
the houses entered.
Policeman Rogers, assisted by Police
man Woodall, have been on the trail since
their first venture and finally succeeded
in landing these young criminals One
