Explosion.
A boiler explosion at Bell's Ferry,
Friday evening of last week, was
attended by disastrous results. It
occurred at the steam mill of
Mess. Spier and seems
to have been caused by allowing
the water to get too low and then
in a quantity of cold
water into the very hot bailer. The
boiler, engine and mill shed were
demolished, the furnace door being
blown as much as a hundred yards
away. Had the property loss been
all the disaster would not
been so horrible, but the worst part
it is that Mr. R. A. Butts
known as Dick
was killed, and three or others
were badly wounded. Mr. Butts
was blown several feet in the air,
the fall breaking his neck. The
noise of tho explosion was heard
distinctly by people eight miles
away, and sounded like tho dis-
charge of a heavy cannon.
