Three Men Instantly Killed asMi Others Injured. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BivooMiiraTON, July 15. A terrible explosion occurred late yesterday evening, about five miles west of Harrodsburg, at a saw-mill. Three men were instantly killed, one cannot live longer than a few days, and three others are very seriously injured. As usual on such occasions, the accident is the result of either carelessness or gross ignorance. The mill is a stationary saw-mill, only in operation a few weeks, but an old worn-out boiler had been put in use, and added to this was the
addition of a new inspirator, which,
to unaccustomed bands, is a very dangerous piece of machinery about an engine. It is supposed two of the killed were experimenting upon this inspirator when the accident
R, Henley, Prosecutor
for this Judicial district, was nominated by acclamation by the convention held in Mitchell, oa Monday a week. Mr. Henley is a youag man of superior ability, and has made a satisfactory record daring his present term of office. He will go in with others, in November. mmamm Governor Eli Murray has .been re-appointed Governor of Utah. This will be regarded as an iadorsement of his vigorous antipolygamy policy by the Administration. Governor Murray will do as much as is possible to do to cheek -the spread of this relic of barbarous days. President Arthur deserves the gratitude f all Americana for thus indorsing Murray's vigorous policy. President Arthur Jb looking around for a quiet place to spend she summer. He ahould hire a ehsk in the store of a man who doesn't advertise. Ex.
Mr. Blaine received at his nomination 541 votes, or three less than two-thirds of the votes east. Had another ballot been taken he would have swept the convention clean of every vote worth having. ' The proprietor of a large store at Hooskk Falls. Iff. Y., kept tally
of the Presidential preferences of
commercial travelers as they visited him. A list of over fifty thus narked down presented a solid support for Blaine. Ira Hoover was plowing in a field across the road from the home of ISIiaha Parker, near Richmond.

occui
Just at 3 o'clock a terrible shock, that seemed like it might be an
earthquake, was heard for miles,
and soon neighbors gathered from every direction toward the place from whence the shock seemed to come. As the saw-mill was reached a feartul spectacle presented it
self. The building was blown to
atoms, and for hundreds of. feet timber and pieces of boiler from the weight of two hundred pounds
down to a minnie ball were found
in every direction. The dead and
dying were lying on the ground, some partly covered by the rubbish and almost beyond recognition from
the soot and steam. -The first
reached was William C. Graves,
He was almost dead, and as a few
boards were removed it was evident
he only had a few minutes to live,
bis bead being partly torn on. His breast was also bruised, and
both arms were broken. When
moved to the shade he groaned
few times and expired. Mr. Graves
had only come over to the mill a
arsnort time before to spend a few
hours with the employes, they be
ing relatives, and was near the boil
er when he met his fate.
The next men found were John
and Wesley Carter, the proprietors
They lay perhaps thirty feet from
the engine, with which they had
been experimenting at the time,
Wesley being the engineer. When
found be was dead, it being apnar
ent that He died instantly. Many
of the bones of his body were bro
ken, bis breast being caved in by
some large flying missile. The
dirt and steam had so disfigured him that, he was almost beyond recognition. Near by lay the body
of his son. John, who. with his
father, was trying to work the in
spirator. A portion of his head
waa gone, and both shoulders broken, bis ribs mashed, and body
bruised all ever. Lake his father,
he was only - recognized by the
clothes he wore. Under a lot of
rubbish and boards lay another unfortunate, a Mr. Collins. His head
had been fearfully injured, a por
tion of the back skull being torn
off. His arms were also broken.
and near the temple were two gash
es, which, it is feared, are necessa
rily fatal, tie waa a newcomer in
the neighborhood, and bad only
worked at the mill a short time.
Another of the seriously wound
ed is an old man by the name of
Foddrill, an employe in the sawiug department. He was injuied in
the side by a piece oi timber, and
also has a broken arm. It is feared
he will not recover.
Billy Graves, another sawyer,
was badly bruised by pieces of timber striking him, and one leg is
broken.
John Bead, an employe, bad one
shoulder badly smashed. He was
knocked rally thirty feet, but his injuries are such as not to prove
dangerous. . An emnlove bv the name of Cal
aban is aise seriously injured about
the body, lie was in the mill at
the time, and was struck by flying
timbers. Several of his hurts are
painful, but will soon heal.
lores workmen present were
uninjured, though the Shock stun
ned them at the time. All around
little pieces of iron lay about, as if
they had fallen from the clouds,
The loss to the mill is, perhaps, $3,000. The situation of the mill is on the extreme southwest edge
of Monroe county, about a mile
from the Ureene county line. ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
-I year ha itets but the
the sea
end of
reak-
Tbe saw-mill at which the dis
aster happened was owned by Wes
ley Carter & Son. Both of them
were killed as was also W. C.
Graves, a neighboring farmer, who was stacking up some lumber near
the mill.
jonn Jroderiu was badly man
gled in the left side, and it is
thought he cannot live.
ueorge (joiiina was injured on
the head and may recover.
John Reed, collar bone broken
and left shoulder crushed ; may recover. William B. Graves, left leg broken in two places below the knee
the bone protruding through the
skin : also seriously scalded on left
side. and only two escaped unhurt.
Henry Lotz was slightly injured
ta the left hand. The boiler was a stationary one,
Wesley Carter was blown over an ash tree that is sixty to eighty feet
high. His son was blown some three hundred yards. One piece
of the boiler struck a saw-log cut tin? off a niece the size of a wheel
barrow. A piece of the boiler weighing some 500 pounds was
blown over a quarter of a mile.
Another piece weighing some fifty
pounds was blown over a mue. Hundred ef limbs on the trees in
the immediate vicinity of the ex
plosion are torn, burnt, and seared
as though some fire fiend, bent on a
mission ot wrath, had swept through the forest.
Windows in dwelling-nouses
miles away rattled as though an
earthquake shook the building. One person who waa several miles
away said that the ground shook
beneath his feet.
The three deceased parties will
be buried in the same cemetery today at 4 p.m. Hundreds of per
sons, some coming for miles, have
visited the scene of disaster. Ihe occurrence has cast a gloom over the entire country.
The cause of the explosion was
the pump failing to work, and the
water running low in the boiler, so
that testing the guage, gas came out at the lower guage; then
pumping cold water m the boiler,
a receipt for blowing & mill to pieces and killing and mangling persons, that never fails.
Not very long ago tomatoes
were known as love apples, and
were regarded as poisonous. .Last
season the canning establishments
of the United states put up
952 cans uf tomatoes.
The prospect for crops is simply magnificent. There will be the largest hay and wheat and oats crops ever known in the State, and the promise for the corn crop wns never better. This is true of the whole country. General business is coming up out of the depression of the past two years, and a season of sound commercial prosperity is before us. A Cincinnati showman says, in an interview in the Commercial : "I have been for thirty-one years a collector, not only of historical relics, but of curious animals, reptiles and insects as well. This has given me great practical experience, which, combined with my knowledge of medicines, enables me to know something of poisonous wounds and their antidotes. Simple remedies I have discovered are in such cases always the best. For instance I once saw a man cured of the bite of a copperhead snake by merely cutting the snake in two and applying its bleeding flesh to the wound as a poultice. Upon another occasion I witnessed a test made of what is known as the 'chicken remedy.' The breast of a live fowl was split open and the hand thrust into the warm and bleeding entrails. This drew the poison out, and the flesh of the bird was made as green, as copper. Seventeen chickens were thus used before the danger line, bad been passed. Burying the band in the ground for twenty-four hours will accomplish the same purpose, but is sometimes unreliable. This, however, is the best and surest curse : Make a poultice as I have
described of equal parts of common
indigo and table salt, applying it fresh to the bite every hour for say twelve hours. Give at once copit ous draughts of lion-root tea and whisky. Then when the patient has sufficiently recovered use as a
salve the Rattlesnake Violet, and
I can assure you that you will never be troubled as I am now, with an annual attack of snake bite, as it were."
A $20,000 STOCK OF DRY GOODS MARKED DOWN TO CASH PRICES. Believing that & Strictly cash business is decidedly better for both Buyer and the Seller and believing that such a business can be done successfully in Bloomiugton, The New York Store has resolvod to now demonstrate the correctness of such a belief and also the advantages to the Public of such a business. No man can sell hi goods even to a good ram on credit as cheap as be can for cash because the credit given Aim compels the Merchant to add at least 10 per cent for the rA the Credit System compels him to take on some other man who is not bo good and prompt in his payments, and one reason the Cash Business has heretofore failed is because those trying it hare still given credit to a few and the credit given the fete prevented any change inprieos to those compelled to pay cash. We ask our maoy friends and patrons to call and see the dif
ference we make in prices under tho Cash
rule, if we don t convince you tnat we do very customer of the House a greater favor by selling strictly for cash than we did under the time rule by selling on credit, we will then feel that you don't core what goods cost, so they can be bought on credit. A man wbo has a credit to buy goods on time, can with that Same Credit ent mon
ey to pay for the goods he wants, and if
tne cash win maice a (Utterance ot irom 10 to 20 per cent in the cost of his goods ho

Letter from Washington Territory. Seattls, Wash. Ter., July T, '84. Editor of the Progress : Puget Sound and the Straits of Fuca have an area of 15,000 square miles, with a shore line of nearly 2,000 miles. Although the banks are precipitous as a rule, vet they are covered with fir and cedar trees so that tho views have no appearance of desolation. Puget Sound is studded with picturesque islands, which with numerous harbors, coves and inlets, cause tho views to vary so that the passenger on a steamer is always entertained with the beauties and grandeurs of nature. For navigation there is Derhans no body of water its (su
perior, the depth of water averaging SO
talnoms and there being no shoals or bars. The mean tide is 18 feet. The largest
ships can land at almost any point and discharge freight. About the Sound the
country is uiuy, out uui mumuaiuoua. To the West the Olympic range of mountains is distinctly visible, the highest
peaks being about $,000 feet.
xo tne jsust tne uascnae .Mountains are
seen. All that country west ef these mountains is known as Western Wash
ington Territory, and all east of them as
the Eastern part of the territory. Tho two sections of the territory are dissimilar in almost overy lospact. The
climate ot jcaslora waaiimgton is more variable, and there is a marked difference
in the Geological formation and character
of the sou. The lava beds or eruption
rocks are seen almost everywhere east of
the Cascades, generally, however, these rocks have disintegrated and formed a very good quality of soil. A small piece of good land is often found surrounded by
spurs of the lava beds. Soil originating
from lava is productive, as lava is composed of elements which enter into the
composition of the cereals and all kinds of grass. Tho drawback to this country is the
lack of sufficient rainfall. Parts of East
ern Washington now receiving attention
are the Kittitas and Yakima Valleys, and
"Bin Bond Country." Kittitas Valley
comprises about 700 square miles of land, the soil of which is generally good, but requires irrigation. In some localities
this is brought about by means ot springs and brooks from the mountains.
In Western Washington the rainfall is
great. This is the great lumber region
oi me unitea states, r rom ma summit of the Cascades to tho Ocean the land is
covered bv a dense forest of fir, cedar,
hemlock, &c.,&c.&c. Some of the largest
sawmills in the world are here, having a cutting capacity of 200,000 feet of lumber
a day. it is estimated teat tnese muis
cut 800,000,000 feet of lumber in 1683
Lumber is shipped to San Francisco,South
America, Australia, ana 10 uie cities on the Atlantic Const.
The climate of the PugetSound country is equable and moist. ' In winter the mer
cury seldom goes .below 10" above zero. In fact flowers often bloom in midwinter
and potatoes left in the ground sometimes escape the frost. The annual rainfall is
very great, averaging about SO inches. It takes place to a great extent during the
winter monlbs. Hence during tnese moninj
there is much dark foggy weather. Bright, clear, cold nights, as we have are unknown hero. In summer tho tempera
ture rarely reaches 90. It is too cool for
corn, peaches, or grapes to ripon, but the temperature and moisture of tho atmosphere are favorable for all kinds of berries. Strawberries grow to such a size that from 25 to 30 will fill a quart cup and the same relative increuse of growth of raspberries and cherries nt once recognized. For the cultivation of hop. and tho sugar beet the climate could nut be moro favorable. Hop culture is ruceiving much attention. 1 am nnablo at this writing to ascertain tho diseusas peculiar to tho climate. Persons who have lived hero many years say thoro are no diseases produced here. All are brought by persons from uuhenithy localities, heuco wo may presume thut no one dies here excupt from old ai;. Climatology reoeivoa no attention. They don't talk about the weather. It seems, however, thut there are mutiy cases of rheumatism, while thero b no malaria and very few case of typhoid fever. For hront and lung diseases I have no data on which to have an opinion. This will be a fruitful field for the study of tho effects of ciimuto on health, particularly as regards temperature and moisture. In time there will appear anatomical and physiological peculiarities, and nervous derangements peculiar to the inhabitants of other portion of the United States will be absent hero. T. C. VAN NU YS.
LATEST FASHION NOTES.
Bishop sleeves are coming into fashion. Cabbage areen Is a new ahado in fine
lawns.
Black Spanish lace over pink is aspeoially pretty. The black mull shirred pokes trimmed with white lace are stylish. White parasols elaborately trimmed
with lace are worn with black costumes.
Bridesmaids wear white silk mits tied
on the forearm, by white satin ribbon
oows.
Grey and wine-color, and grey and
green are popular combinations in sum
mer dresses. Traveling cloaks and seaside wraps re
call tho illustrations of "Mother Goose"
and other nursery tales.
Pique dresses are not as popular as predicted. Ladies say they are too warm. Mere will be seen of tbem in early fall. Summer skirts to wear under white mull and other sheer dresses are made of whitewash silk trimmed with fine torchin edge and insertion. A pretty way to make a dress for a little girl is to tuck the joke lengthwise in very fine tucks, the body in larger tucks, and tha flounce in still larger tucks, but around the skirt. Lace scarfs are again worn mantlewise over the shoulders, and loosely knotted in front. Lace shoulder-capes in b lack and in white are also popular, and are almost universally becoming. The grandmother dross, with plain skirt tucked to the knee with apron drapery, or to the waist with a broad sash of the material, is moro than popular for misses, for young ladies, and for slender women. It is as much worn as was the Dolly Varden or tho Breton Jacket, or any other popular orazo which has swept like a wavo over the tide of fashion. An odd costume recently worn by a New York girl sepreionted the four seasons. It had four panels of satin on the skirt; green for spring, blue for ssmmer, ruby for autumn and silver gray for winter, the first three painted with flowers, and the last glittering with snow crystals ; and in her hair appeared a happy family of robins, butterflies, humming birds and snow wreas. The gathered epencer waists in fashion
twenty years ago ara revived to wear
with skirts of different colors or of different material, and it is said will take
the place of Jerseys as the season ad
vances. Luce, either black or white, and silk surahs of any light color, are the materials used, and the belt and sash worn with these waists may bo of the same, or
oi velvet, or also oi son India silk.
The Terry styla of drapery, viz., a long, round overskirt, caught up carelessly on one side by being drawn through a loop
i nuvuu, is oeooiuing very popular WHU slender women on whom it is effective.
Stout women will wisely avoid it.
A pretty fashion with slender young ladies is that of making the basque to lap half-way across the loft side of the front, instead of buttoning it down the middle ; the lapped edge is finished with a full lace frill, aud sometimes this edge is cut
in scauops.
