WEEKLY HERALD: PL ATTS MOUTH, NEBRASKA, JULY 24 1890. From Friday's Dal y. Uoun: A duuhtt-r, to Mr. and Mrs. Wells, Friday July 25th nt corner of Rock and 7th street. The Young Ladies Altar Guild will give a garden party fur children on Thursday, July ill, between the hours of 5 and 8 p. in., at the residence of Mrs. R. R. Livingston, on Sixth street. Admis sion 10 centd. Mr. Pierce Shepherd, of Golden, Mis souri, brother-in-law of E. B. l'erry, ar rived in th city last evening to attend the funeral of Erastus Perry, which oc curred at 10:30 today, from the corner of Hth and Marble streets. Will Cannon and wif.', formerly old settlers of Cass county, but now ot Cus ter county, this state, departed for their home this morning near Broken Bow. Mrs. Cannon has been visiting her sister Mrs. Perry' Walker, for several weeks and Mrs. C. was looking on the state conven tion . George Ilendrickson returned this retrain c from St. Joe where he had teen summoned a few days ago to the bedside of his sister. Miss Lizzie Ilendrickson, who was reported to be growing worse as the result of an operation performed last Saturday by Dr. Bishop. She ral lied when her brother departed from there yesterday morning, and some hope was entertained that she might yet re cover. The explosion of the carboy of sulphur ic aeid at the oil house was attended with more serious results than weic first expected. This carboy is a large glass Teasel of thirteen gallons, and was en cased with a wooden box for shipment, and had been exposed to the hot sun for some time, and the moment the case was lifted from around it by John Corey and old Mr. Brantner, who take care of the oil house, the explosion occured, throw ing the acid upon both men, and burning Brantner on the arms quite badly, and to lay he has them in bandages. Besides the burns on the arms he suffered a slight burn on the chest and side. Mr. Corey was more fortunate than his fellow la borer, escaping with a slight burn , near the eyes. It is to be wondered at that the results were not even more serious. The other day one hundred and fifty passenger had a very narrow escape in the Niagara rirer, the litter steamer that carries passengers across that river had to cross below Green Island instead of above it on account of low water. When , it was amid stream, at the nearest point o the cataract, the engine suddenly gave out," and the boat started down Stream. An anchor was hastily thrown out, but the vessel had such a headway that it dragged quite a distance, Finally when it caught in the rocks the jerk smashed the bulkhead to which the chain was attached, and the steamer went on. Fortunately the chain twisted 80 that it caught ia the bnllwarks and stopped the boat. Then they fixed the engine and got up steam and after a struggle of fifteen minutes with the rapids accumulated headway enough to over come the current, and safely landed. The passengers were all scared out of a year's growth at least. And well they might be, for it was a close shave. There was but a hair's breadth between them and eternitv. Police Court.
