long since forgotten, was to meet in the same,
place, our old “boss,” Col. Ai K. McClure, who

severe accident .on Wednesday last. Be was
sitting on theffenpe,
when his feet on which they
were resting, apd hepras precipitated forward.
He instinctively threw his hands forward to
save himself from falling npbpihis face, which
he succeeded in .doing, -but at the expense of bis
left-forearm, both bones of which were broken
off oiose to the wrist. The fracture, which wag:
a most severe one, was reduced by Dr. Leisen

the young man will have the use of his arm.—
Standard.
An6tbbb. — A Germanbutcher, residing in
Tyrone, had his leg boke, between the knee and
ankle, on Friday Inst, whilst engaged in a gpod
nntured tassel with , a friend.— lb.
rioRBiBLK AcOidest. —lt becomes our painful
duty this week,to chronicle another fatal acci
dent, resulting in the instant death of a little
son of Mr. Joseph. Bush, of this place, which
occurred at noon on Monday last. It appears
that a train of .cars had been cat at the crossing
on* Annie street, and the boy, in company with
another, was passing between them, when a lo
comotive struck the cars, causing them to come
together and knocking the boy under them. He
fell upon the track and two wheels passed over
his breast and right sfapnldeft qrushiusr h|s
bones, and yet, strange to say, not cutting the
skirt. How this could occur, we cannot under
stand, although we have no doubt of the truth
of it, ns we bare it from reliable witnesses who
were on the spot at the time. The boy was im
mediately picked op and medical aid summon
ed but all to no piprpose. as the vital spark had
fled. We sympathize with the parents of the
little boy in their sod bereavement; and
would again caution parents to keep their chil
dren away from the yard in this place, It has
made our blood run cold to witness the reckless
ness and fOol-hardy daring of some of the boys
about the yard* in, jumping off and' on to mov
ing trains. Be assured, boys. If yon persist in
thus showing your agility, your lives will pay
the forfeit sooner or later.
Result or a Joke.—tOq Friday afternoon last,
as one of our German citizens, who. is some
thing of a wag, was paSsing the store of a Jew
clothier, on Main street, he observed it was
looked up, and wisbingto have afittle sport, ho
procured a piece of crape and attached it to the :
handle of the olothjer’s store door. On the re
turn of the clothier, ft is said there was some
toll swearing doneT os he was not inclined to
treat the matter as a j jpke. The consequence
was that as soon as he met the person who had
I played the joke, hebegpn to pile up the invec
tives-pretty steep. The joker not feeling incli
ned to take, all that the olotfiier bad to say,
reached out with his right " mawley” and suc
ceeded in "getting in” a stunning blow above
the clothier’s " peepers.” The clothier return
ed but was short. They then closed for a hug
and.the fall, but a number of bystanders inter
fered and the edntest was declared drawn. So
touch for that joke. •
Resignation' and Appowtmkst.—Can. A. J».
Roumfort, who has so ably conducted the trans*
portotion business on the Division
of the Pennsylvania Railroad, for the last ten
years, resigned' his positon, as. Superintendent
of the Division, on Monday week.
To fill this vacancy, the company has selected
Samuel J). Young, Rhg., who was but recently
appointed to the Superintendence of the Middle
Division. This will of oonrec involve the re*
of Mr. Ypnng to Hariisbnrg, and odds*
the catalogue of Temovals from ony.
t®wp» -incident to railroad life, which we regret.

A Pic.NiC.-—A pl<s:oic I a picnic ! are we pot
to bare a pio nio djuring this fine weather?
Almost every paper rjrppick up contains an ac
count of a pleasant picnic to this dr that grove,

sights they are. •.•Sfho will move in the matter?

over leaves a wife and; five children in destitute
circumstances. Hnmpson leaves a wife and fam
ily in the west, with ifhom, however, he has

all others who wishf a saucer of good ice cream
wherewith to cool tfie inner person, that he trill
keep the article oh howl at all times during the.
coming summer, at his; saloon, on Main street,

Poe the PnosTiKE — -On Thursday and Fri
day last, three cor loads Of Uncle Sam’s boys
passed through Ibis place, on their way to. the
westero'frontier. To’ what particular locality
they were destined we did not learn, and from
the appearance of the boys, we presume ititandir
little difference to them,! ns they were about as
hard a party as we haVebeen lately.
