A Sidewalk and Parts of a Handsome Residence Demolished. NEW YORK, Oct. 17.—-An explosion of gas took place on Fifth avenue, near Fif- ty-seventh street, today that effectually disturbed the usual quiet of that neigh- borhood. The explosion occurred under the sidewalk in front of the home of Mr. "Charles Contoit, a retired merchant, liv- ing at 728, Fifth avenue in a fine brown- stone house, between the residences of ex- Secretary Whitney on the north and that of Proprietor Kemp of the Buckingham hotel on the south and directly opposite the new home of Collis P. Huntington. The explosion, besides ripping up the heavy flagstones in front of r. Contoit’s house, blew out all the doors in the cellar and sent them flying into the back yard. Mr. Contoit noticed a strange smell of escaping gas in his house yesterday. He complained to the Consolidated Gas com- pany about it. The odor of the escaping gas grew hourly worse, especially in the lower regions of the house, where the serv- ants were employed. This morning Mr. Contoit sat in aroom on the third story reading his newspaper. Glancing out into the street he observed an electric lineman shin up the pole sup- porting an are light in the avenue. The man had been engaged but a mo- ment at his work when the explosion oc- curred and set every window pane in the house rattling, causing many of them to shiver into particles. Mr. Contolt heard that :much and saw the lineman was clinging to the electric light pole for dear life. Then Mr. Con- toit hastened down stairs. There he found confusion worse con- founded. The three heavy flagstones in front of his residence, 20 feet long and 10 feet wide, had been blown bodily into the air and broken into a hundred pieces. In their place was a yawning hole lead- ing into the conduit under the sidewalk. Mr. Contoit made a search for his serv- ants, beginning ln the cellar. He found an unobstructed passage from the front door leading into the cellar clear through the laundry and kitchen into the back yard. There he found his three maidservants upon their knees, praying and shrieking by turns to be delivered from the fury of what they had thought to be an earth- quake. The servants, when they regained in some degree their presence of mind, told what had happened to them. , They said that While at work at their duties a sudden crash sounded which al- most lifted them from their feet. " The front door flew across the room and struck the laundry door; that yielded and the two together continued on to the rear door of the kitchen, carrying that also out into the back yard. , Indiana. 011’ For 9.

The Mad Act of a Girl Who \Vas Tauntod by Her Father. NEW YORK, Oct. 17.—Tlllie Keil, a. do- mestic, 18- years old, today attempted sui- side by jumping from the roof of her resi- dence, 737 Avenue A, five stories, to the ground. She was picked up with both legs frac- tured and internally injured and taken a prisoner to the Presbyterian hospital. She was driven to the act by her father, who had denounced her for being way- Ward. Tillie has lived away from home as a domestic, not because her father, who is, an industrious mechanic, did not provide for her, but because the girl liked more freedom than she could enjoy at home. During the last year she has lived with strangers, returning home at irregular in— tervals. ‘ Today, when she came home, her father said to her: “You had better go where you came from; there is no place for you here now.” Tillie promptly left the flat and going to the roof jumped into the yard below. The father went to the East Eighty- eighth Street station house, and, sobbing like a child, said: “It is all my fault. If I had not driven my girl from the door, she would not have attempted to kill herself.” At the Presbyterian hospital it is feared that the girl will not recover. o matter what you’ve tried and found want- ing—the remedy for Piles Salva—ceal .
