A Trrrllilo Siilelile, Sliorlilujr On.
Iuiult)--A Ciirlniis C'aiiislroplii-.
Ono of the most horrible instance! of sui
ciile which wo have ever seen recorded
tliat of Iliclianl P. Williamson, ofWnynes
vllie, Wnrren county, Ohio, which occurred
in that town lagt Satuiilay Tlie iletenseil
win the elilest son of Dr. "Francis William
eon, of Wnyno'ville, anil hail fur tonic time
)i.i.t boon livingnt the house of his parents
Ho was poinewliat peculiar, but was never
considered to lie deranged, or ilangerom
cither tn himself or Id any onu else; indeed,
lie miu rciiiiukalile for hisconstnrt thought
fulucts nnd kiiiiluess to every one. lie was
nn esteemed inenilier of" the Ilieksite
Friends' Society, nnd in nil habits exempla
ry und proper. On Saturday morning lie
went out to a neighboring farm, which he
owned hut hint leased, and employed him
self In mending the fences and other trilling
jobs, nothing peculiar being remarked nbout
him. During tho afternoon lie was seen In
an old log cabin on the place fixing up a
sort of pen, with rails, in the large ten-loot
fire-place. Mr. Settles, tho man who re
fides on tlio farm, remarked to Richard that
he thought he was preparing to burn him
self up. Richard's reply was: "l'slu.w,
Mose, do you think me a fool?" Still,
Richard kept on willi his mysterious work,
and, although his brother null -Mr. Settles
viewed him now witli sonio anxiety, yet
they feared to excite htm by asking ques
tions or appearing to watch him. Wh.cn
supper time arrived, Richard was urged'to
come. In to supper by Mr. Settles, bufhe
said lie was going over to Jtr. Smith's to
stay nil night, and that ho would get his
supper tlieru.
Willie in tlio midst of eating, it flushed
simultaneously in a forcible manner upon
tlio minds of Mr. Settles and ills assistant
that Richard was burning himself up in tlio
old log cabin. They rushed to the door,
nnd there, sure enough, they saw a blazing
light Issuing from the door of the cabin.
Willi tlio utmost possible speed they ran to
tho cabin, where, horror of horrors I their
worst fears were but too terribly realized.
They saw a sight that almost paralyzed
them with terror. There, in that rail-pen
built in tlio largo lire-plaeo by his own
hands, was Richard Willi-iinson, surrounded
with tire, and so fearlully burnt and charred
mat no ono would have known mm. lie
bad, it appears, niadu the lire and, entirely
nude, plunged into the Ilamcs as if about to
plunge into a pleasant bath. Ho was taken
from tho fire witli difficulty, by means of a
chain in the hands of Mr. Settles, and, on
Sunday morning, tlio remains were placed
in a coflln and brought tn his parents' home.
These facts, which wu gather from the
Miami Gazette, are almost without prece
dent. Why young Williamson should have
deliberately chosen such a horrible means
of ending an existence which, he had before
remarked, had no charms for him, can only
bo accounted for by tlio idea that lie must
have entertained n conviction that ho was
required to make a sacrifice of himself, and,
by frequent meditations on tlio deed and tho
means, ho had wrought himself up into an
ecstacy of fanaticism on tlio subject, so fa
tally carried out. Tlio Gazette says that
no was nut twcnty-eiglit years ot age, and
was esteemed by all as mi upright man, and
among those who know htm most Intimately
and well his qualities of mind nndheait
made him an object of warm infection.
A Shocking Cliluiiiil).
IFrom the San Francisco Chronicle, April :o.
A frightful accident occurred on Monday
afternoon, in a lot on tho northcas-t comer
of Sixtli and llrannmi streets, by which
threo littlo boys, belonging to dili'erent fam
ilies, were burned in a shocking and proba
bly fatal manner. Tlio accident occurred
while certain experiments were being made
witli oxy-hydrogen llame. In order to con
vey n proper idea of the manner in which
the terrible allmr occurred, n somewhat
lengthy explanation is necessary.
Some timu ago C. II. Swain conceived
tlio idea of applying the oxy-hydrogen
llatnu to lighthouses and other illuminating
purposes. This llamo is produced by the
mingling of jets of superheated steam and
petrolcjni, or other highly inflammable
gasscs. For the purposes of making experi
ments, Jlr. Swain recently rented tlio build
ing on Sixth street adjoining the lot whcro
the accident occurred, lie put si small
boiler in tlio building ami a tank containing
about a gallon of naptha or crude petrole
um. An ordinary gas pipo ono inch in di
ameter was attached to the boiler, nnd
thencu was run through the wall to tho out
side of tlio building, and nbout forty feet out
in the lot. From tho building to its other
extremity this pipo was covered witli a few
inches of sand. Inside of the inch fipo
was a smaller one, less than a quarter of nil
inch in diameter. Through this the nnptha
gas was carried, while the larger pipe con
veyed the superheated steam. Near tlio
aperture nt tlio extremity both jets mingled,
nnd combustion ensued, which produced a
flame, whoso intense heat nnd dazzling
brilliancy can scarcely be conceived by any
one wlio has never witnessed such experi
ments. On Monday afternoon about 5 o'clock Jlr.
Swain was engaged in some experiments
with Ids apparatus. A perpendicular point
about twelve inches long, had been attached
to the end of tlio pipe, so that tlio llamo
might be shot dlredly upward. A largo
number of children, attracted by curiosity,
had gathered about, and although cautioned
repeatedly to go away, or ut least not to
come ton close, it seems the warning wns
not heeded. Still, as tho direction of tlio
flame was straight upward, no danger wns
apprehended by Jlr. Swain. Everything
being nt last arranged, tho jets of steam
and gas wcro turned on, and tlio fierce
llame shot upward. Suddenly there was a
remarkable diminution both in the volume
and brilliancy of tho llame. Jtr. Swain
surmised that tlictc was some obstruction in
tlio vent of the smaller pipe, and fearful
that tho pipo might burst, as tho gas was
constantly generating, lie attempted, with n
wrench, to take oil the perpendicular sec
tion of tlio pipe. In doing tills the horizon
tal section was raised so that tlio end rested
nliovo tlio surfaco of tho ground, Tho
children crowded closer to sea what was
going on, Swnin and Addington, Ids assis
tant, were both to busy or too much excited
to think of anything but clearing tlio pipe.
Suddenly tho disconnection was made,
nnd instantaneously camo a loud report,
am! a sheet of blinding llamo shot fortli witli
tho resistless fury of a thunder holt, right In
among tlio group of children. Tho ell'ect
was appalling. Threo of tlio littlo boys
wcro literally roasted alivo by tlio awful
flame. The one who was standing most di
rectly in lino wns William Shannon, a boy
not quite ten years old. Ho wns nbout
eight feet from the pipe, and tlio tremendous
forco of the explosion hurled him twenty
feet backwards. Blinded with tho fire nud
frantic with pain, ho roso to his feet und
rushed buck directly Into tho llame, where
his clothes wcro buriud almost to cinders.
Tlio timely assistance of a gentleman pres
ent, wlio wrapped a coat about him, nnd
saved lilm from being Instantly burned to
death. Two other children standing near
him were prostrated by tlio explosion and
burned horribly about tlio face, hands nnd
tegs. Tlio two men who were conducting
tho experiment wcro nlso severely burned
nbout tlio hands and face, but not standing
so directly In tho line of tho explosion their
Injuries nro not of a serious nature.
