TWO FATAL MISTAKES.
A Student Poisons His Friend--A Drug
Clerk's Fatal Error.
CHESTER, Pa., Nov. 28. —Edmund W,
Greaner, of Baltimore, for a year past a
student at the Crozer Theological semi-
nary, had a severe attack of neuralgia.
A young medical student from Phila-
delphia, who was an intimate friend of
young Greaner, made up a dose of med-
icine in which he put part of a grain of
alkaloid of aconite. The first dose did
not have any effect, and three other
doses were administered. The four
doses combined, however, proved fatal,
and Greaner died within two hours,
When the medical student saw the ef-
fects of his doctoring he was nearly
crazed with grief,
Coroner Jefferies was notified, and, on
investigating the case, he decided that
an inquest was unnecessary, as he con-
sidered that the poisoning was purely
accidental.
The remains of the dead student were
taken down to Baltimore for interment.
Deceased was a graduate of the Johns
Hopkins university, and was a great
favorite with his fellow students, He
leaves a young wife.
Corvssia, Pa., Nov. 23,—The mis-
take of a drug clerk caused the death of
little Mand Lindsay, the 5-year-old
daughter of Rev. Dr. W. C. Lindsay,
pastor of the First Baptist church, of
this city, and one of the most eminent
divines in his denomination in the south.
The child had a slight fever and her
parents determined to give her some
quinine, The father went to W. C.
Pisher's drag store to purchase the qui-
nine. The clerk, W. L. Brat pntup
three doses of three grains each of what
he supposed was the right medicine,
