THE BOILER-HEAD WAS BLOWN OUT.
Fatal Explosion on a Railway Loco
motive.
Fireman diaries Xdpscomb Thrown
Tnronerh the Snowshed, and Dies
of Ills Injuries.
It is rarely that accidents of a serious
nature happen to locomotive boilers, but
one occurred yesterday in the snowsheds
near Blue Canyon, which resulted fatally
to Charles Lipscomb, fireman of one of
the eastbound trains.
Warren Goudard, the engineer, was also
badly scalded about the hands and arms,
but his injuries are not serious.
While the train was passing through
the snowsheds, and just as the locomotive
was opposite one of the openings made in
the Bide of the shed to admit the light, the
head of the boiler blew out with terrilic
force.
Lipscomb was in such a position at the
time that he received the full force ot the
escaping steam. He was lifted up and
thrown clear over the tender headfore
most through the narrow openings in
the shed. He brought up with his head
against the bank of the cut.
Engineer Goddard escaped with the
scalding of his arms, the injury being
very painful. Although badly bruised
by coining in contact with the ground,
it was not thought at the time that Lips
comb was dangerously injured, severe as
, were his scalds.
Dr. Hood of Gold Run did all that was
possible to alleviate the sutferings of the
injured men, and came with them to this
city, an engine and caboose having been
promptly placed at his service to convey
them hither.
They were taken direct to tho Railroad
Hospital and immediate attention given
them. But Lipscomb was beyond nu
uiau relief, aud died about o o'clock in
the afternoon.
Engineer Goddard is getting along
nicely and will be ail right in a few
weeks.
It has not yet been ascertained what
was the direct cause of the explosion, as
the locomotive was thought to be in per
fect condition when it left the round
house.
Several years ago a locomotive boiler
exploded In the snowsheds between the
Summit and Truckee. In that instance
the boiler was torn asrunder, ono heavy
piece being thrown with such force that
it cut directly through a thirty-inch up
right post of the snowshed. Boiler acci
dents, however, are of rare occurrence on
railroads.
EARLY EVENING BURGLARY.
The Residence ot 11. (J. Smith Invaded
Lnst Evening.
A burglar made his way into the resi
dence of Halsey G. Smith at Tenth and
II streets about 8:J0 o'clock last evening,
but got out again more rapidly than he
entered, and before he had completed his
job.
The family were all at home at the
timo, bat were down stairss. The burglar
had evidently satisfied himself of this
fact before he stormed the piace, for he
made his entrance into the upper story.
He first climbed upon a woodshed, which
enabled him to reach a porch, and from
tnere he entered by a window.
The fellow had succeeded in making an
inspfi-tiou of most of the upper rooms,
when one of the ladies of the household
diaooTered the intruder. She gave the
alarm, and the burglar bolted out the
window and leaped down from the
porch, leaving the impress of his feet in
the ground where he struck.
Mr. Smith promptly called up the po
lice staiion, and Chief Drew acted as
jailer while Sergeant McManus and Of
ficer Logue hastened to the scene in the
patrol wagon. Special Officer Balz and
George McManus madea thoroueh search
of the neighborhood, but could find no
trace of iht; burglar.
As far as was ascertained, the fellow
had not secured any plunder. Members
of the family say they had noticed a man
prying about the premises during the
day, but did not suspect his purpose.
WEATHER NOTES.
The Warmest September During the
Last Seventeen Years.
The Weather Bureau reports show the
highest and lowest temperatures yester
day to have been 96 J and 6U J, with light
northerly winds up to 2:30 p. >i M when
light to gentle southerly winds and clear
or hazy weatner prevailed.
The barometrical readings at 5 a. m. and
5 r. m. were 28.90 aud 29.76" inches, re
spectively.
The highest and lowest teuiDeratures
one year ago Saturday were »2° aud 4b°,
one year ago yesterday 86° and 51°, and
one year ago to-day 88° and 52°. The
highest iv this city on Saturday was 96°
and 63°.
There was no time during the month of
September, 1893, on which a temperature
of 90° or more was reached, it being the
first time in seventeen years that Sep
tember had such a cool month. Septem
ber, ISSB, gives nineteen days, with a tem
perature above 90 J, and eight of those
were above 100 J, the highest being 100° on
the 11th.
During September, ISS7, the tempera
ture was high as late as the 28th of the
month, it being 100° on the 27th aud 86°
on the 28th. Therefore our present spell
of weather is not an unusual occurrence
for September, although the staying
qualities are very good, as yesterday
made seventeen days during this month
with a temperature of 90° and above, the
highest 86°.

SACRAMEKTO DAILY BECOBD-TOIOK, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1894.
DEATH OF A PROMINENT CITIZEN.
Charles McCreary Passes Away in
His 56th Year.
Although in Delicate Health for Some
Time the Filial Summons
Came Suddenly.
The community was deeply pained on
Saturday eveniug as the report gained
currency that Charles Mct'reary, the well
knowu Hour merchant and manufacturer,
had died at his home at Tenth and L
streets.
-Mr. McCreary's ailment was caused by
a local cancerous growth, and of late it
became appareut that he would have to
submit to a painful operation as ottering
the only possibility of prolonging his
life. The operation was performed on
Saturday by Dr. L. C. Lane of San Fran
cisco, the noted surgeon, but the patient
could not rally, and a few hours after
ward breathed his last.
Deceased was a native of Sandusky, ().,
where he was bom October 6, 18oi>. Ho
came to California in LSoO, when his lather,
the late W. P. McCreary, brought his
family hither, engaging in the llouriug
business in this city iv I>J2.
Early In life the deceased and bis
brother Byron conducted a farm iv Yolo
County, but at the end of lour years they
returned to this city and became inter
ested with their father in the milling bus
iness. They succeeded their lather on
his death and together carried on the
i•'rout-street mill until the death of Byron
McCreary a few years ago, since which
time the deceased conducted it in his own
name, assisted by his sons Harry and
j Robert.
In 1!?G5 Charles MoCraary was married
to Leora, daughter of the late Judge Rob
ert C. Clark, who, with their two sons,
survive him. lie was not only one of
the most prominent business men in the
State, but a citizen who enjoyed tho re-
aud esteem of this entire commu
nity.
Mr. McCreary had no taste for political
strife, and was never a candidate for
otlice, his whole lime beint: devoted to
the management of his large business in
terests. He was firm in his political con
victions and was always active in the
support of to* better class of men for
local officers.
In his death the State has lost a promi
nent representative of its leading com
mercial interests, and, Sacramento has
been deprived of a citizen whoso influ
ence was always used for the best inter
ests ol the community—a mau of irre
proachable character aud ono of her best
citizens.

TWO BOYS NEARLY DROWNED.
*am Ray Tries to Save His Fish and
Uls lJrotuor Irles to Save Sam.
Sam and Tom Kay, two colored boys,
aons of Special Officer Ray, the watch
man at the Sacramento Plauing Mill,
went fishing yesterday. So, undoubt
edly, did a number of other boys, but
they did not enjoy the distinction of be
ing fished out themselves, as Tom and
•Sam did.
They fished from a barge on Front
street, between O and P, and found the
fishinc so good that they in time accumu
lated a tine string. Unfortunately, by
somo means the string got loose, and
Sam saw the results of their labors lloat
ing away. It was too much for human
nature—at least Sam's human nature—to
endure calmly.
If it had been someone else's string, he
might, perhaps, have endured it, but it
was his own. Without pausing to think,
he made a dash for tue ash and the water
closed over him. His brother, who is 17
or 13 years old, plunged in. to save him
and was grabbed by Sain. Juntas they
were disappearing forever from this life,
a man, wnose name was not learned)
sprang into a boat and saved them.
When drawn into the bout they were
tightly locked iv each other's arms. They
were taken to their homo aud resuscitated.
bat Ham will not be able to go fisuing
again for a day or two.
