LEifCftBl Tay 29-The wrsif disaster
in mo aistorT pi tae CQuaiv occurrea
near Powhsville P. O., about 12 miles
from Lenoir, yesterday. It was the ex
plosion i of a boiler at Deal's saw mill,
resulting in the instant death of Ed.
Deal, the fireman, Pender and Gordon
Oxford, and fatal injuries to a Mr.
Jones, who died five hours after the ex
plosion.! Twoother younjr men" were
also badly bruised and scalded, but 'will
recover! .It seems lht the safely limit
withtnis boiler was ioa ixmnds pres
sure,! i but the fireman? f recklessly
weighted down ?the safety - valve sand
was trying to get 125 pounds. ' The re
sult was a sad one. The two young
Oxfords had heen working In. the-woods
near by, and bad come to the .mill for
water; the others were employes.
The miif, tor, some -reason, had been
stopped temporarilyi and, all I si meo

Having learned that passengers froraTJ

reach Lenoir the same afternoon 1 will
say that th$ "present schedule between
Charlotte and Lenoir, over theiCarolina
Centrai and the Chester & Lenoir Rail
roads, is a most excellent one. Leaving
Charlotte about 10 a. m., passengers
reach Lenoir via Lincolnton at 2:20 p.
