Very Narrow Escape.

Soon after nine o'clock on Sunday
morning the dread alarm of the fire bell
rang out on the still morning air, and
on Fastening to town we found it was
the residence of w. A. Hopkins, cashier
of the State Savings Bank, where the
fire was said to be located; but on ar
irving there we found that it was Mr..
Hopkins who was hurt more than the
house.
The house is fitted up for the use of
accetylene gas for lighting purposes.
The generator is located in the base
ment, and Mr.. Hopkins was in the act
Of cleaning il out preparatory to refill
ing it. He had taken out the carbide,
and thinking the gas was all out of it,
and the cellar being rather dark, he
approached it this time with a lantern
in his hand, when terrific explosion
occurred. Mr.. Hopkins was hurled
about six feet, and the generator rent
to pieces, one piece being thrown up:
ward, bending half inch rod or pipe
on the ceiling and blew out the fiue-
stopper of the sitting room. The little
daughter was crossing the front hall at
the time and was thrown down by the
conclusion. Mrs. Hopkins says it shook
the house and the firing was like unto
the sound of great cannon.
In moment Mr.. Hopkins saw the
floor joists overhead were on fire and
while getting hose he keeps down
there he raised the cry of fire and had
it out ere the engine arrived. 1t was
found he had narrow escape of being
killed. The great force of the explos-
ion struck him on the breast, badly
burning him round his throat and clear
up to his ears, especially the right side
This is thought to be from the fact he
had his right arm raised holding the
lantern at the time. On his right arm
was very bad burn. Had he been
struck six inches higher he would have
been blinded if indeed his head had not
been shot off, as it was his eyebrows
and eyelashes were scorched and burned
quite badly. His coat and vest and
shirt were torn to rags and scorched.
In looking the matter over it is
really a wonder he escaped alive; and it
would seem impossible for man to &C
through another such experience and
come out alive. We are glad it is nc
worse, and hope soon to see Mr.. Hop.
kins out again.-Lamoni Chronicle.

CATARRH YIELDS
To Healing Air OF Hyomel. Sold
Under Guarantee by L. p.
Van Werden.

Catarrh is the most prevalent disease
known to humanity. Probably ninety
per cent. of the people in this country
suffer at one time or another with this
common disease.
1t is germ disease and hence can be
cured only by same method that will
reach and destroy the germs.
This is best found in Hyomei, which
may be called the direct method of
treating catarrh, as it's medication,
taken in with the air you breathe, goes
directly to every air cell in the nose,
throat and lungs; kills all catarrhal
germs; heals the irritated mucous mem
brane and vitalizes the tissues so as to
render catarrh no longer possible.
L. p. Van Werden gives his absolute
guarantee to refund the price to any
catarrh sufferer that Hyomei fails to
benefit.

A Corunna dispatch to the Owosso

'Wilillam A Bahlke of Alma, at

pany, filed a bill in chancery lin the

which the electric company is alleged
to have hooked its wires on to the
poles of the telephone company, and
he pronounces this practice detri mental
and nuisance to the telephone com
pany as well as menace to public
safety.
When the wires are crossed.by storms
as frequently happens the public is
endangered. The wires of the electric
company carry high voltage. and the
