A horrible accident occurred at the Beech Creek railroad station at Phil- ipsburg on Saturday evening, which resulted in the death of Mrs. Wharton Callahan, of Chester Hill, a suburb of Philipsburg, and her sister-in-law, Mrs. Mary Bauder, who resided on Second street in Philipsburg. Mrs. Mary Bauder had spent the day with Mrs. Callahan, at Chester Hill. The two ladies were walking to Philipsburg and when they reached Presquisle street, they attempted to step across the Beech Creelk tracks in front ofa shifter, which was running slowly backwards. They were run down by the shifting engine. Mrs. Callaban’s body was cut in two by the truck wheels, Mrs. Bauder's one foot was crushed; her back and neck were brok- ed and both arms were broken. Both | ladies were instantly killed. The bodies were taken to an under- taker’s establishment where an inquest was held. The verdict rendered was that no one was directly responsible, Mrs. Callahan is survived by her husband and four grown up children. She was 43 years old. Mrs. Bauder was a widow and is sur- vived by one son. She was 45 years old. Mrs. Bauder's malden name was Mary Bartholomew, and she was born | at Hublersburg. She was a sister of | W. H.
