He was at lunch near by when one of the steam-heating explosions at the corner of Broadway I and Fulton street took place, and so was a reporter. The atmosphere was con- flucive to explosive story telling, and McCleary told of his experience to an interested group, and produced a number of newspaper clippings &. verify the ex­ traordinary occurrence. One of them was from the Eldred (Penn.) Eagle, and it called McCleary the hero of the nitro­ glycerine explosion at Haymaker, Pa., in 1880, and said that every stitch of clothes had been stripped from his body during his flight of seventy-five feet through the air. McCleary explained that he was what is known as a torpedo shooter. In de­ scribing his sensations he said: “When the explosion took place I was probably twenty feet from the stuff. I saw a blinding flash as if the world had sud­ denly taken fire. I knew that I made an attempt to run from the derrick; I felt that I had maybe a minute to live, and I remember resolving to occupy that minute in running. All at once it seemed to me as though in the attempt I had taken a fearful leap, and that I was going down—down as one in a dream. I knew intuitively that the explosion had taken place, but I had not heard the report, 6trange to say. Everything looked blue, and I began to wonder if the explosion had killed me and if I was dead. I cal­ culated how many others were dead. I could hear their widows crying and I witnessed their funerals. I suppose it took me ten seconds to be thrown to where I was found, but it seemed to be ten years, and I had time to think of a thousand different things. “Finally I lost consciousness, and that was when I struck the ground, I sup­ pose. I was badly broken up, and finally gave up ‘shooting’ wells for good and came to New York. No, now that I realize the great risk, the hazardous life, the almost daily danger of death, I would not go back to it again for a farm.”— New York Times. yhe Land on Which the First Well W m Found Was Traded for a Cow—Many Men Were Rained Before Fortunes Were Made—Names of Some Early Wells. dressed so indecently i our country and our century as they o in fashionable life today. journal Would that some j ^rprising J might take the morai tuis sub­ ject as a substitute prize baby com- petitions.
