He was not burned in the least, bnt was snffocated by afterdamp.

He owes his life to the tact that he fell oa his back, and was therefore able to secure what little good air was ln circulation.

The fl scorched bis head and hands, bnt his bums, while painful, are serious.

Riley (R.) l.m V79 IMS McAbdrew's plurality 97 In explanation of Congressman Wil liams's defeat, which to many is one of the most surprising results of the election, he having received a good vote at his home in the city of Wilkesbarre as well as in the upper end of the county, the returns from the Hazleton section throw some light on the matter. If the vote on county survey or in the Fourth legislative district cau be taken as a correct basis of the vote of the respective parties, Davenport rnus slightly ahead of his ticket, while Williams is nearly 1,000 behind his. Davenport has abont 300 more than Jenks.
