THE PITrSBUKtill DISASTER.
An Eiplciltn In m. Nail Mill Filled with Bnay '
l.uborr r??Fifteen Killed?Scorea of Men
and ll?}i Wounded, Many Family, e
A most terrible aocident oocurred in 1
Pittsburgh, Pa., caused by the explosion 3
of a battery of boilers in the nail f.io- 1
tory adjoining tho rolling mill of Zug & 1
Go. The disaster is only exceeded in j
its ghastly features tmd tho misery entailed
by tho like horror at the government
arsenal in the year 1862, when
some seventy-two persons perished,
three-fourths of them being girls. Fifteen
persons were instantly killed and
quite a number suffered the agonies attending
fatal injuries and then died,
while scores of others escaped with
broken limbs or gaBhed heads and face3.
Tho building, covering the battery of
rotteu boilers, was a one story frame
structure, wherein at least 150 men and
boys were engaged preparing iron and
cutting up this material into nails. This
long, low building was filled from one
end to the other with rnpid running
nail outters, and the concern was working
up to its fullest capacity to fill back
orders.
About nine a. h. there was a terrific
shock which was felt in many places
throughout Pittsburch. Tn the iinmn.
diate vicinity oi the mills it resembled
an earthquake and people wero lifted
from their feet. Accompanying the
shock was a black cloud or mass of
broken timbers, pieces of iron, grout
lumps of coal, and volumes of jet black
smoke, which ascended upward of twohundred
feet into the air. Thus, in an
instant, the extensive nail factory was
reduced to a perfect wreck. The work
of devastation was most thoroughly
complete, and, to add to the horror of
the soene, the displaced timbers and
beams, dry as tinder, took fire from the
furnaces, while the air was filled with
shouts and groans of the poor wretches
who lay buried beneath the debris.
For a time everybody Beemed paralyzed,
but as soon as possible an alarm
of fire was struck. The department responded,
and the incipient conflagration
was soon stopped. Meanwhile the news
of the terrible disaster had spread far
and wide, and soon the thoroughfares
leading to the scene wero jammed by
people anxious to learn the details of
the loss of lite and limb. Among those
most exoited and frenzied v ere women
whose husbands, sons and brothers were
employed at the works. Those who
oould extricate themselves from the
wreck did so at onoe, and camo crawling
uui. irom unuerneatn tUe splintered timbers,
some with faces dyed horribly red
from the blood which dripped from tho
wounds on the head ; others stripped
almost naked, and with faces and bodies
black wiih soot and dnst; still others
crawled out with the aid of their hands,
dragging mash d and broken legs to
wkero was day light and safety. It was
a terriole moment. Hnndredo of willing
hands gathered in a short time, and
. removed the poor helpless beings that
conld be got at to the storeroom of themill 1
on the opposite Bide of the street. Here '
victims, blackened beyond recognition, 1
lay, and through all the dirt and grim
there could be seen the unmistakable
pailor of approaching dissolution. To
make the scene still more horrible fresh ,
victims were being carried in at inter- j
val*, while those whose wounds bad ,
been dressed were taken to their homes
and to the hospital. This operation was .
dolayed by the surging crowd in and
about the office, and men who were 1
carrying the litters found it almost im- 1
possible to force their way through the
masses of people that lined the side
walk. Frenzied women fought their 1
way through the crowd to tho oflioo 1
steps, and with screams and cries de- I
manded to be admitted to ascertain if <
their friends were among the wounded
inside. A number of women fainted, ;
?ua mo wiie 01 ono mau, who bail learned i
of her husband's death, made a desperate :
effort to commit suicide by endeavoring ,
to through herself beneath a pair of ,
passing timber wheels. Another woman
managed to elnde those at the door, and
gained entrance to the office. She was
nearly demented, and was looking for
her little son, a boy of abont twelve
years of age, named Louis Strong. lie
had been in the nail faotory and was
missing. He was not in the office, and 1
after assuring herself of this fact the i
mother rushed ont like a mad woman to <
search elsewhere. Hardly had she j
passed from the door when fonr men t
came slowly through the orowd, bearing j
the body of a boy. They brought it ;
into the office. It was the woman's son, (
horribly multilated and dead.
The cause of the expoeion was that j
the boilers were rotten, as they had r
been used quite a number of years. :
Engineer Burke was seriously injured.
After the explosion he was found 1
with his hand on the throttle, alive, but
unconscious. The loss of life wonld 1
have been greater had not the explosion i
occurred when a number of the work- 1
men were at lunch. Pieces of iron, t
large and small, were hurled in almost <
every direction. A large portion of the ,
boiler, weighing fnlly three hundred j
pounds, was thrown into the Allegheny j
river, abont four hundred feet from the .

Cutting Steel With Soft Iron,

or.g endeavored to construct a maohim
jO out hardened cold steel. He accora
plished it at length by means of a nav
if soft wrought iron?merely a circula

ow speed this would not out at all; bu
when running about 25,000 feet pe
minute the disk out through steel rapid
y, giving out an immense cascade o
(parks in the operation. It was fount
in examining the debris beneath th<
lisk that the partioles^of steel were no
umpiy ruDDed off. Tiiey were weldtx
together in a pyramid like a sfcalagmib
>r the snow circles on the top of Moan
Washington. I'rofessor Hedrick osoer
rained that real fusion had taken plao
imong the particles of steel. The dial
is very little heated, but the steel is ac
mally melted and drops down. Yet tin
jar on each side of the cut is not heate<
Jiiongh to draw the temper or oridiz<
;he metal. Solid bars of steel, of twi
jr three inches in diameter, aro thm
:ut through in as many minutes. Th
soft metal disk is about forty-two inche
in diameter. The naked hands may hi

It ha* been a desideratum with the medical
profession to p< ocum a preparation of iron
leee objectionable than ary of those now in
nee, which often produce unfavorable effects
upon the e\ stem, *specially when prepaied
with alcoholic fluids.
In many cases of debility ana convalescence
from direase, where a tonic is indicated, wine;
brandy, porter, etc., have been recommence i,
bat these are or vety donbtful efficaoy, to eay
i the least. Alcohol is"never digested, ia ranked
among the diffusible stimuli, and ia incapable
of affording nutrition. It creates generally
1 an unnatural excitement and derangement of
1 the circulation, irritating the whole system by
i preventing the blood from losing its oarbon.
Again, bow diffioult it is to obtain an artioie
' approaching to purity, almost all the wines,
1 brandies, port ore, etc., being more or lees
i adulterated.
, Such being the case with fegard to the
epiritnonB preparations of iron, and the alco'
holio drinks,of which any one can satisfy Lim
i self, by investigating the eubjeot, an opportunity
is now preeonted in the Pernvian
. Byrup, for the trial of an artioie in general
practioo, wbioh has the very strongest reoom>

bo happily combines the protoxide of irofe
with the other constituent parts that the
> effects incident to the use of iron salts are entirely
obviated.
For all ?ases in which iron or any tonio is
1 needed this preparation is confidently believed
f to be far superior to any other. It seems to
j purify the very fountain of health.
