Mr. Young was watching them, when one of the young men. standing in the door, ignited some of the pow- der in his hand, and in brusiing it off some of the fire fell in the key. Instantly there was an explosion whici threw the boy some into the yard, badly wrecked the room and so seriously burned Mr. Young that he die the next morn- ing, after suffering untold ugonies throughout the night. His flesh was so badly burued that it dropped off in large portions. Dr. Boulware was summoned but he was dead when the doctor got there.
