Bat Baa Enough for Seme Who Bede en It. About neon te-day an accident, which might have been a great deal mere serious than it was, occurred at the new tobacco warehouse, ou West Lemen street, which is owned by the Messrs. Bumganlner, and is occupied by D. B. S. Kendig. The building has an elevator in the centre of it, which runs from the third story te the basement and is used for moving tobacco cases from one fleer te another. After the meu who had been working en the third fleer stepped for dinner twelve of them heaided the elevator te ride down. The names of the party were as fellows : David Can, Frauk Scheid, Ed. Hoever, Henry Caruthcrs, David Hardy, Peter Wagner, Geerge Carr, Scott P. Lytic, narry Kautz, Harry Aument, Harry Kuhns and Ed. Beas. They had just bearded the elevator when it was started, and descended into the basement with frightful rapidity, striking very hard at the bottom, very much te the astonishment of the men, who weie thrown off iu all directions, while some were injured. Scott P. Lytle, living en Seuth Queen street, had a bone in one of his ;feet broken ; Ed. Beas re ceived a terrible cut ou the back of his head and it was thought that his skull was fractured : he was unconscious for a short time, but when the physicians examined him, it was found that his skull had net been injured, but he had received a slight concussion of the brain ; liis arms were also bruised. He was removed te the Black Herse hotel, wheic he beards. Ed. Hoever, residing ou Water street, had his leg sprained and had te he removed te his home. Several ether of the men weie bruised about the arms and legs, but it is very fortunate that none of them were injured mere sc sc lieusly. Hew the accident occurred is a mystery as yet, but probably the weight was tee heavy for the elevator. At all events after the accident occurred it was found that all the cogs were broken from the small wheels at the top aud a number were broken from the large one. The long box iu which the weight works was tein from the side at the top. When the elevator struck at the bottom the wire rope came off the wheel. WEDDING IN l.EWJSTOWN. Murrlageef a Seu of .T-iy Coeke te a Lady ! l.nucaNter J'urcutnge. The morning papers have additional paiticnlars te these published in the Is Ti:i.i.ir.i:xcEK of the marriage iu Lewis town, Pa. yesterday of 3Iiss Esther Rus .scl, well known in the social circles of this city wheic she has visited her aunts, Mrs. Hait and the Misses Mayer. The groom, Mr. Harry J2. Coeke, is a seu of Mr. Jay Coeke, the famous hanker, and is seen te take clerical orders in the Episcopal church. The wedding has been the theme of social conversation for the past three weeks in Lcwistewn. At precisely 11:02 the bridal party entered the room. First in the line came six children drcused iu while, and arranging themselves thice en cither side formed an avenue for the fourth bridesmaid aud groomsman, who were followed by the third, second and fust respectively, all forming a semicircle with the bride and groom at the centre, under a maguiliccut arch with a beautiful horseshoe et white buds. The ceicmeny was performed by Dr. E. W. Appleton, au uucle of the bride. The groomsmen were Mr. Dick Hewell, Mr. W. P. Stevenson, Lieutenant Ficd. Coeke. ISth legiment, regular army, aud Mr. Pitc Coeke. The bridesmaids weie Miss. Bessie Myers, Miss Miriam Weeds, Miss Mamie Coelce and Miss Sallie Franciscus. The bride's dicss was white satin dc Lyen aud brocade, and her biidcsmaids weie diessed in mull and Lice. She re ceived ever eighty presents in all, the most impeitaut and most elegant being a grand piano from the groom's father, au elegantly ! engraved geld watch and chain fiem the groom, aud a uue ebony cabinet, lliree Ii:m:lseine heavily-ornamented clocks, six dozen silver spoons, knives aud folks, one cathedral clock, pair el crackle ware vases, a solid silver tea service, together with a large number of china ornaments, weie also given, the newly married pair expect te visit friends in Ohie, where they will ic main for a short time. Then they will le turu te Philadelphia, where they expect te lefjide. Quite an amusing aud interesting lealiuc was the cutting of a biidcsmaids' cake iu which had been placed a geld ring, it being supposed that the fortunate brides maid would be married liist. The first, second and thud with anxious leeks, half in hope, half in fear, cut iu vain, but it was lefx for the fourth bridesmaid, who was tendered happy and enviable by strik ing the geldeu hand. ISAKT ITKS1S. "Jii And Arennil Georgetown." Mr. Geerge Stanett, of Walla Walla, Washington tcnitery, is en a visit te this place and leeks as though the Northwest agieed with him.

A clear sky aud a dark night favored the gazer at this new comet which ap peared last night under the star Merak, forming the northern lower corner of the Dipper. It has been visible for several nights after 9 o'clock, and has moved slightly te the west of an imaginary line drawn fiem the North Star te the horizon. By looking carefully at this point the observer will see two tolerably bright stars close together and isolated from the ethers. The one te the right is the comet, while en the ether hand and a little above, Merak burns mere steadily, but scaicely as brightly as her inconstant companion. The dim and tenuous tail is discovered after a moment, though it is net conspicuous, but an opera glass.brings it clearly.inte view. The direc tion of the tail is away from the sun, that is te say, upward from and te the right of the coma. Star-gazers should fellow the trick of astronomers of pointing their glasses a little te the right of the comet, aud gradually change the direction of Umj glass until the luminary is brought within view. The astronomers' saying that there is no accounting for comets is efteu verified by the seemingly inexpli cable bodies in their development and decliue, aud while the new comet is said te be traveling away from the sun and earth at the uncompromising speed of 5,000,000 miles pei day, it is net certain that it will net at any time within a day or two burst forth with unlooked-for splendor and brilliancy. Struck by the Cars. A man named' Maxwell was struck by the cars yesterday afternoon at Bird-in- Hand, and was severely injured. He was about crossing the railroad, when some persons near by called te him te go back, j but misunderstanding them lie 'walked upon the track, and was struck as stated.
