Jacob Viang; and Fraak Tahl Instantly Klllsd Miraculous Two iters.

By the explosion of a boiler in the saw mill owned by John Flaugh, in Lafayette township, Allen county, Thursday evening, two men were in stantly killed, and two others had most miraculous escapes from death. The dead are: Jacob Flaugh, aged twenty, a son of the proprietor of the mill. ran it ahl, aged twenty five, a son of Danle Fahl, residing near Roanoke, in this county. The place where the explosion occur red Is about four miles south of Abolte station, and about four and one half miles east of Roanoke. The mill was owned by John Flaugh, and was oper a ted by him, bis two sons and such other help as occasion would require, The engine seemed to be In good run ning order and worked without a hitch until about 9 o'clock Thursday.

At this time something became the matter with the boiler, the gusges not show ing exactly how much water was in the boiler, and the fire was about to be drawn from underneath the boiler when Frank Fahl, who was on his way to attend a public sale, happened along. Frank had the reputation of being a first class' engineer, and one of the workmen asked him to come Into the engine room and see if he he could tell what the matter was. He did but before he had. made any examination, there was a deafening explosion and the bnildingr waa blown to splln ters. The noise attracted the attention of the people residing in the vicinity, who came running to the spot, and found Mr.

Flaugh, running about, with blood streaming from his face. and half erased with anguish. ''The boiler blew up and both mv sons are killed be cried. The crowd, which gathered quickly set to work to clear away the debris, in the hope of finding the bodies. They had been at work but a short time when they beard shouts from beneath the'pile of broken timbers.

Rapid work on the part of the rescuers soon brought to light the body of yonng Jacob Flaugh. which wa'sbadiy torn and Life was extinct, and, after tenderly laying body away, the search was continued, In a few minutes John Flaugh, was taken out from the wreckage, with strange to relate, no other ir juHefc than a few slight bruises. 1 At this time two men who had heard, the explosion and were running to the scene through a cornfield, stumbled across the body of the unfortunate Fahl, mu tilated and cut beyond recognition, ly ing between the rows of corn, over 150 feet away from the null. The head was crushed in and the body waa al most a is mem De re a. rue bodies were taken home, that oi Flaugh to his father's residence, and that of Fahl to bis home, where a bride of three months had already heard the news.

Almost a parallel to the miraculous es cape of John Flaugh waa that of bis father, whom the force blew the length of building without inflicting any serious injury Mr. Fahl, one of the victims of the explosion, is a cousin of, Mrs. Albert Freehand Mrs. John Renbarger, of this city, and at one time waa a real dent of Union township.
