TflEEE TESTS UPON PITTSBURGEES lead Dr. Page to Believe That Seacard Goes Only Half Way. CHAT OS A SUBJECT WORLD WIDE Dr. Brown-Sequard, or Paris, noted on two continents on account of the claims he makes for his new "Elixir of Life," has a disciple in Pittsburg, who has tried his treatment of injecting animal tissues into weak and debilitated people, with the great est success. This disciple is Dr. Henry A. Page, an old, reputable physician of the East End. He said last night that he had tried Dr. Sequard's treatment on three pa tients, and that he had fairly created new men. He says that the half has not yet been told of this great "Elixir." He adds that the published experiments of Sequard are confined to those who were in their dot age or suffering from decay, while the FIELD FOB THE DISCOVERY, he thinks, can be enlarged so as to embrace different diseases, by injecting the animal tissues of the corresponding organs of vari ous animals into the diseased human organs. He says it can be made to give a man a new grip on life, and that the great field for the remedy is among people, and especially men, who have lived high before they set tled down in life, spent their nights at the clubs, robbed themselves of sleep, attended to sports, society or other fashionable dissipations, and so early dwarfed themselves in their physical growth and visor, and sapped the life-giving and renewing elements of their constitu tions, leaving them really to commence life all broken down in health, because they did not husband their energies. Hen have thus deprived themselves of enough vital energy to last them their lifetime; they have drawn too heavily and too soon from the reserve forces of nature; but he believes the remedy at hand. Dr. Page has experimented on three men, and finds that "their cases were at once made better and a new life imparted to them." WHAT THE TKOCESS IS LIKE. The doctor explained that "the material used is selected from young and vigorous animals, preferably the pic and the aheep. There is but little distinctive difference as to the animal selected, so far as results go. Certain glands are taken, reduced to a pulp by a process of beating, and the juices being expressed, they are carefully filtered. When used a certain amount of pure water is added, the whole agitated until thoroughly mixed, then introduced through the medium of a small syringe under the skin." He said the process was not painful, but that it was necessary to exercise the greatest care that the vitalized medium be fresh and not in any way impaired through the in fluence of heat 01 anything hot that produces chemical action. The doctor says that the new elixir "will make the world happier and better," and that he is satisfied it will do more than Dr. Sequard has yet claimed for it, in many ways. TD.E COLUMBUS CLUB'S 0UTI5G. ARIdeDown the Ohio River and a Visit to Qoalnf Old Economy. The steamer vl vtfiower never carried a more select and cultured party of excur sionists than it did yesterday, when the members of the Columbus Club, the repre sentative Catholic association of the city, with their ladies boarded the boat and took a trip down the Ohio river. The old boat, which has witnessed hundreds of social gatherings, seemed to be a thing of life as it bore the p-irtv out into the stream and seemed to fairly fly through the water. The first stop was made at Rochester, where the party spent about one hour in specting the town. A number of the young men engaged in a game of baseball, in which numerous fingers were disjointed, etc The party then repaired to the boat, which was headed for Economy. Upon ar rival at the latter place the quaint and staid old villagers took the party in charge, and there was nothing lacking in their hospi tality. After spending two hours with the Economites, the party returned to the city at 10:20 in the evening. Rev. Father He Donald, D. D.,of St. Paul's Cathedral, rep resented the clargy on the outing.

The Member of tbo Athletic Association Have n Grcnt Tournament An Exhibi tion With n Novel Tennis Game. It was a tired crowd of young people who left the Sewickley Athletic grounds last night after about six hours of exciting recre ation in the several athletic contests of the lawn fete and tournament of the Sewickley Association of Gymnasts. But in spite of the fatigue, which was apparent on the face of nearly everybody, it had been a delight ful time forall, and the gigantic trees which threw their deep, gaunt shadows over the assembly, had rarely harbored a happier lot of athletes under their branches. The entertainment had been planned to raise some funds for a club house they in tend to build. Nearly all of the younger ladies and gentlemen of fashionable Se wickley belong to the organization, and, as usual, their efforts were crowned with suc cess. They cleared about (300, but gave an entertainment to 500 guests, which proved a pleasure to every visitor. An extensive programme, whose details were made up of exhibitions from nearly all the popular outdoor games, was presented. Four teams of entries were made in the quoit contest, which opened the tournament at 4 o'clock. It resulted in a victory for the second team, composed of Can tain G."W. Cochran and A. B. Storm. Joseph Mc Donald -proved to be the best out of six-ball throwers, firing his ball 108 yards. Arthur Kevin secured the prize in the sack race from eight contestants. Edward McMillan, who made the highest jump of 5 feet 1 inch, was the victor over seven jumpers. A 100 yard race was won byHr. D. B, Warden, who made the distance in lOJi' seconds, ac cording to two watches. The three-legged race, a contest which afforded a great deal of amusement, was won by Bobert Miller and Joseph W. Ar rott. Mr. John Semple proved to be the highest kicker, and secured a miniatnre moon as a prize for his effort to reach that planet with his toes. Eight young men at tempted to climb the greasy pole, but it was too greasy and nobody got to the top. The most interesting part of the pro gramme, and an exhibition "which has never before been performed in this part of the country, was a burleoque game of tennis! The two sets were composed of tour gentle men arrayed in the most grotesque of ladies' dresses. Their capers and antics created a great deal of laughter. Messrs. George C. Whitesell and Charles L. Doyle were the winners. A promenade concert by the Sewickley Banjo Trio, and a game of tenpins bv seven ladies and six gentlemen 'concluded the tournament. The grounds were prettily decorated with flags and bunting, and the Chinese lanterns gave them a very picturesque appearance during the evening. A number of booths bad been put np, and were presided over by the young ladies. The ice cream,the candy, gipsy and lemonade booths were constantly thronged by liberal customers. ROW ALL IS SERENE.

The cases will not come up for trial until next spring, if the peome up then." When asked if he did not think the suits had been entered hope of ina voluntary compromise, he said there would be no com promise of any kind in the matter. The large number of dams which have been swept laway recently he thought, helped their side of the case, in public opinion. HITHER AflD THITHER.

TO KETUEN AGAIN SEPTEMBER 1. Lively Scenes From Jail to Central and Thence to the Train. TBUSTIXG HIS FATE TO HIS LAWIEES Without any of the predicted disturbance without even an ordinary up'oar Flemon, or Yeldell, was last night conveyed from the Central station to the Baltimore and Ohio depot and there safely shipped on board a south-bound train. The day selected was a good one, as the great bulk of the colored people had been celebrating the an niversary of West Indian slave emancipa tion, and very few had returned to town in time to witness the departure of their six weeks' hero. Seidell snent the day in the Central police station, reading the Bible, and nerving himself for the great strain which is before him; having been previously and quietly transferred from the jail. He was thoroughly reconciled to his departure, and expressed a hope that his colored brethren would create no useless disturbance by riotous conduct or at tempted rescue, which, as he himself said, would only prejudice the public against him. THE CBOWD CAME OUT. A crowd began to grow about 8 o'clock around the doors of the Central station, and by 80 the sidewalks were blocked np, and dense gronps were massed along Smithfield street in the direction of the Baltimore and Ohio depot. Within the station a consultation was going on as to the beat means to elude the crowd; and a plan was speedily formulated. Officers were dispatched to circulate the rumor that the prisoner was to leave by the Union depot, and they did their work so well that the greater part of the crowd at once set off in that direction. A chat was obtained with Yeldell, and he seemed in rather good spirits, though evidently a bit nervous. As the station clock struck 9 word was passed for Officer Patrick Fitzgerald, and after the lapse of some minutes that indi vidual turned up. He was at once hand cuffed to Yeldell, and, the wagon being by this time in attendance, the pair were 'hustled into the outer office and thence to the street. A drnnken woman beinc Lroncrht in jostled Yeldell as he passed, and the po- lite minister tooit u uis uat wiui ai? irec hand and begged her pardon. In a few seconds more the prisoner and Officer Fitz gerald were safely seated in the wagon, which set off up Smithfield street at a quick trot. Knowing ones made tracks for the B. & O. depot, but the bulk of the crowd followed tbe wagon. Subsequent events proved .their mistake, for the wagon dashed down to Sixth avenue and wheeled suddenly up Wood street, in the direction of the river. A howl of anger went up from the crowd, and instantly every face was turned riverward and every nerve strained to reach the Baltimore and Ohio depot, but all too late. . EIOT WAS EVADED. Had the mob in the streets reached the depot in time and mixed with the crowd already there, a riot must of necessity have ensued. As it was, everything went off most quietly, and the rare tact of the police was conspicuously displayed. A few minutes previous to the arrival at tbe depot, by a preconcerted measure the electric lights on the platform of the depot were extinguished, and but for those shining in the waiting rooms the place would have been in utter darkness. As soon as it be came known that the wagon had arrived, a rush was made for the barrier, so as to get a look at the now notorious Yeldell, but the depot officials, aided by tbe officers, quietly cleared a lane, and the prisoner, still linked to Paddy Fitzgerald, and followed by the officers and newspaper men, was ushered through the gate and escorted to a seat in the foremost car of the six. As Yeldell settled down, guarded on one side by Fitzgerald and on tbe other by uoo JJennlson (ootn or whom go on to tne state line wltn mm;, ana tol kwed by Inspector McAleese, Boger O'Mara, the South Carolinians, Jack- He- .r .... .. ...... ....

But very few of the passengers seemed to know of the celebrity whom they were to have as a traveling companion. Arrived at tbe foremost car, which contained but few Eassengers, Yeldell was led to a seat and andcuffed to its arm by Boger O'Mara, who then affixed tbe shackles to his feet. The deputies seated themselves in the seat behind and had a levee of about five min utes' duration, during which handshakes were exchanged with the acquaintances among the officers and newspaper men, and hones tendered them of as pleasant a Jour ney as could be wished for under the cir- J cumstances. xeiaeu at tnis point bade good-by to an intelligent colored man who came there to see him off, telling him not to forget to write to a certain address. His friend as sured him of his compliance with his wish, and raising his hand aloft, cried out: "May the God of Isaac and Abraham see you safely home, and send vou better luck in Carolina than you had in Pennsylvania." Yeldell bore himself throughout with a coolness almost bordering on indifference, and smiled in response to some remarks that were made anent his journey. A few mo ments more and the conductor came along. "All aboard!" rang out from the brakemen, and at 920, sharp on time, tbe Southern ex press pulled out for South Carolina. So fell the curtain on tbe first scene of this now famous extradition case. Yeldell, before going, said he had nearly as many friends in South Carolina as he had in Pittsburg. He spoke gratefully of the efforts made by Pittsburg colored men to secure his acquittal. -Questioned about the killing of Blackwell, he refused to give anr information. All the false 'reports which had appeared iu print about that affair would, he said, be contradicted at the proper time. Geeat reductions in ladies' suits and tea gowns.

The child had beautiful leatures, and seemed to have been of good parents.

OverOne-Fonrth of tbe Miners in the Begion Are Now Out. THE N. P. U. DEN0DKCB THE STRIKE A Complete List of tbe Ovens That Have Been Thrown Idle. AS CHEME TO PEETENT LAB0BTR0UBLES The beginning of the cokers' strike in the Connellsrille region materialized yesterday, as per programme, and at 4 o'clock In the afternoon abont 2,500 men were out. Over 2,000 of these were Frick men, who, it is claimed, had signed a scale with their em ployer, to run until January 31, 1890. The strike was not as extensive as some of the labor leaders expected. The mass meet ing at Connellsville, however, drew an en thusiastic crowd. This had the effect of getting quite a number of men to lay down their tools. At several works committees of strikers tried to get men to join them; but, in the majority of cases, were unsuccessful. The operators were jubilant last evening, seeing the majority of their men refused to go out. They claimed the strike was a fiz zle, the total number of men out was less than one-fifth of those in the region. LIST OF THOSE IDLE AND BUST. The following are the names of the mines where the men struck. Tbisreport was fur nished by the operators, who received their information from their superintendents on the ground: At the works of the Frick Company in the Bradford district, about 2,000 men struck. This will throw Idle about the same number of ovens. The 200 men at the Buckeye Works, owned by the Connellsville Company, also went out. The same number were employed at the Central Connellsville W orks, which is jointly owned by Messrs. Frick, Schoonmaker and McClure. They were among tho first to go ont. The following, works were reported to be running full time: Tbe Standard, owned by Frick A Co., 1,000 men; tbe works of McClure A Co., 1,500 men, and Schoonmaker. 1,500; the Mammoth, owned br J. W. Moore, 550 men; United, owned by tbo United Coal and Coke Company. 325 men; Hecla, at Hecla station, 300 men; Mutual, 200 men; Calumet, 200 men. All of the mines on tbe Sewickley branch road are also reported to be running without a break. At a number of the works where the men were on strike it was reported that the su perintendents tried to secure a number of Hungarians to take the placesof the strikers, but that they refused. ME, FB.ICK IS ASTOUNDED. H. C. Frick, when seen by a Dispatch reporter yesterday, said: "I am utterly surprised that our men should co on a strike in the face of the agreement we made with them. The contract binds them to work at the price agreed to 85 cents until the scale expires. This is tbe first time I ever knew an agreement of this kind to be vio lated by any class of workingmen. So tar the strike has not been a success, and I do not anticipate that any more men will go ont." "Will the number of men out have any effect on the market? Will there be enough men working to supply the demand lor coke?" Mr. Frick was asked. "There certainly will be enough to easily meet the demand for the product. The number of meu out represents a little more than one-sixth of those in the region. At present there is a large snrplus stock of coke on the market, and even if we did not have enoueh men to make enough to fill orders, this stock would last us quite a while." FROM THE SEAT OF "WAB. The following special telegram from Scott dale last evening brought additional details of the strike: The strike in this region Is now an assured fact, and while not as many of the works are idle as was expected, there are enongh to make the men reasonably certain of success in the end. Tbe following works are reported out: Charlotte. Clinton. Davidson, Eagle Fonndry, Frick. Henry C'laj Morgan. Summit, Tiptop, Valley and White, of the 1L C. Frick Coke Com pany; Buckeye, of A. (!.

M. Schoonmaker Coke Company. Reports have been received to tbe effect that Donnelly.Mayfield and Enterprise works, of tbe McClure Coke Company.vwould be idle to-morrow or Saturday. It is also claimed that tbe men at tbe Jtmtown works of tbe Schoon maker Coke Company will come out to-mor. row. One of the most peculiar features of the strike is that while all the employes of the Frick Company, except those at the Standard works, came cut without paying any attention to the provision of tbe Frick scale, a Standard man said to-day that at a meeting of tbe men at that place last night it was decided to give the company tbe notice required. A promi nent striker said that the reason for this was that nearly all the men at Standard wero mem bers of the National Progressive Union, and that they had been advised by President Davis to give the notice. MOEE OF THEM OUT. The following was recaived at 1 o'clock this morning from Connellsville: The strike returns received at a late hour to-night show that of the 77 coke plants in tbe region 20 are Idle by the strike. They are as follows: Buckeye, 160 ovens: Charlotte 87, Clinton 44, Central 204, Davidson, W6, Dexter 40, Eagle So, FoundrayOT, Franklin 50, Frick ISO, Henry Clay 120; Home 20, Lcmont 134, Lelth 234, Morgan 163, Overton 110, Stewart 120. Summltt 142, Tip Top 121, Valley 152, Unlondalo 78, White 20O, Youngstown 240. MorreHOO, Wheeler ICO, total 3,658 ovens idle, or a little over one-fourth of the total number of ovens In the region. The men at Bessemer, Cora, Donnelly, May field. Mt.Braddock, Pennsvllle and Southwest No. 1 are expected to come out in tho morning. If the last named works are Included In the idle ovens tbe number of ovens will be in creased to 4,672. The men at alarge number of the works, notably those of McClure Sc Co., are hesitating whether to. come out or not. A big meeting was held at New Haven this afternoon. It was addressed by Secretary Watcborn, John Costello atui others. Julius Sydow addressed tbe Slavonic element. To-night tho samo speakers addressed a large meeting at Trotters, At a meeting of the National Progres sive Union held at these works on Tuesday erenlnz, tbe action of tbe Knights of Labor in declaring the strike was vigorously con demned, and they unanimously declined to continue work. The meeting to-night has bad a reactionary effect; and it is probable that they will Join the force of strikers in tbo morn ing. Meetings were also held at Southwest No. 1, Mayfleld and Donnelly to-night. These works are in tbe douole-fnll column, and it Is expected they too will come out in tho morn ing. The labor organizations are divided on tho point at issue. Tbe opposition the Na tional Progressive Union has developed against the efforts of the Knights, not only preclude tho possibility of the strike becoming general, but will doubtless bring it to an early termi nation. PRESIDENT BODINE'S BEPOBT. He Says tbe Outlook far tbe Future Is Not Encouraging-. The annual report of President Bodine, of the Window Glass Workers' National Asso ciation, was received in this city yesterday. In his treatise on the future, President Bodine says the outlook is not at all encour aging, owing to the large increase of stock by reason of the new tank and pot furnaces. The total nnmber of pots in operation was 1,660, an increase of 108 pots over last year. He estimates the product for 1889 at 3,218, 880 boxes, 823,644 of which will be made in this city. This is an Increase of 00,000 boxes over last year Referring to the tank system, which is now troubling the manu facturers in this vioinity. President Bodine says: Tanks will be constructed at Brlrtgeton, N. J., and Streator, 111. Importers in New York cannot place more than ISner cent ol first and second quality; hence they are being largely I shut out of the American market by the retro-J r - '-Bv. -jpr ' iinc: grade of quality In foreign? glass. D.H. Rob erts has established a profitable business In American natural gas made glass In New York, and has driven out considerable French glass. As 18 Is to 75 Is the proportion of tank made glass. The pot furnaces furnish 75 per cent of first and second qnality, and tho tank furnaces did not furnish IS per cent of first quality. While the tanks may make production, they cannot make as good quality as pot furnaces. TO SETTLE STKIKES. Captain Jones Wants a Board of Arbitration Bow They Are to Work English Capi tal Is Not Needed Here. Captain William R. Jones, General Man ager of the Edgar Thomson Steel Works, left last evening for Milwaukee, Wis., to purchase several engines for use at the Braddock mills. While at the Union sta tion waiting for the limited express, tbe Captain dropped out of his usual taciturn mood and unburdened his mind of a num ber of questions that are agitating the in dustrial world at present. In speaking of the strikes and lockouts among the iron workers, he suggested a plan which he claimed wonld prevent any further strug gles of this kind between capital and labor. The Captain said: My idea of preventing strikes, which always prove disastrous to both tbe employer and em- Sloyes, is to have a board of arbitration in this tate. something similar to tbe one now la ex istence in New York State. I would like to see tbe board composed of five men, composed of such as form the judiciary of the State. Whenever a crowd of employes become dissat isfied with their wages or treatment and can not settle the matter satisfactorily with their employers, they must refer it to the board. The latter will be clothed with the authority to inspect the books of the employer, and if it is a question of wages, let them decide what is fair and equitable. In a large manufacturing establishment this conld be dono very easily. Say for instance that tho employer be allowed 10 per cent profit on what be turns ont or has invested In his plant. They would also take Into consideration what skill is required to do a certain class of work and base the wages accordingly. In some mills there are men receiving as high as $7,000 and $8,000 per year. They are supposed to do man ual labor, but by the introduction of new ma chinery their labor is cut down almost to nothing. If the board of arbitration was in ex istence these men wonid be cht down to abont 5.000 per year, and tbe difference given to the poor laboring bands who now receive less than tl 50 per day. Laws shonld be passed making it compulsory to refer all these labor questions to tbe board and their decision must settle the matter. Any violation or non-acceptance of their decision npon the part of both employer and employe would be made a penal offense. If an employe Is not satisfied with the way the case Is settled, then he has no alternative bat to quit and go elsewhere. 1 think this would be far better than to organize a striko by which both sides lose time and money they never regain. The scbome works all right in New York State and there is no reason why It should not work here. Sneaking of the general outlook for rail road building, based on orders the company has received for rails, the Captain called the prospects very bright. The many recent failures of mercantile interests, he said, caused a very shaky condition of affairs, and ii so many failures had occurred within the same time 16 years ago they would have caused a panic. Captain Jones is much opposed to invest ments of English capital in American manufactures. He says there is plenty of American capital here "to take care of every thing, and every scheme the English started in this country, for some reason, fell through. BABBEBB MEAN BUSINESS. Non-Unlonlsti Most Go, and tbe 5-Cent Shavers Likewise. The Barbers' Protective Association last night adopted a resolution that on and after Augcst 10 no union boss shall employ a journeyman barber who is not a member of the union. All the members will be re quired to take outworking cards before that date. Besolutions were also passed appealing to labor organizations and workingmen in gen eral not to patronize 5-cent barber shops, of which, it is understood, there are a couple in the city, and not to patronize shops that keep open after 8 o'clock in the evening.

Be's In the Bace, He Says, in Spite of Bosses, , andPlinn Is With Him. TWO STORIES AB0DT MR. QUAI'S TISIT Senator Quay went back to Bearer county at 4:30 P. 21. yesterday, after spending the day in the city, calling on friends among the business people and receiving the visits of politicians and others in room 123 at the Seventh Avenue Hotel. There was a great deal of activity appar ent among the political forces on either side and men went about in a manner that indi cated there was. something afoot, though nearly everyone, when questioned, felt free to admit that he didn't know just what might or might not be. Mr. Flinn was seen during the afternoon, and knew so little that it was positively painful. "Have yon called on Quay?" inquired the reporter. "No. sir," he replied. "Have yon been negotiating with him for harmony, or for a settlement of the post office?" Mr. Flinn said he hadn't been. Later Mr. Quay was seen, and admitted that he had met Mr. Flinn, casually. "Did he call on you?" "No," said the Senator, "he didn't." "May I inquire where you saw him?" "I don't care to talk politics to-day," re turned Mr. Quay, with a pleasant smile. The reportorial intrusion on Mr. Q uay was a surprise to that gentleman. The clerks in the office stated in their official capacities that the statesman from Beaver wasn't in. Bat he was, nevertheless, and James S. Mc Kean was just coming out of the door, smil ing as though something pleasant had been said, as The Dispatch reporter entered. United States District Attorney Lyon and Chief Clerk, Morrison, of the House of Eep resentatives, were in the room, and the con sultation seemed to be an earnest one. KO BACK TBACES TO BE TAKEN. 'Mr. Quay's prospective candidacy for 1892 could not be brought to light. Neither could any other political information of any value. Mr. Quay said, however, that he was enjoying good health aad expected to for some time to come. After the visit to Mr. Quay Mr. Flinn was again seen and asked further concern ing a confer ence between himself and Sen ator Quay. "I am in no deal whatever," said Mr. Flinn, and then, as the reporter began to ask another question, he stated with good natured emphasis: "You can say I am in no deal whatever." Turning to a friend, Mr. Flinn remarked: "I've still got my eye on that seat in Har risburg." John Neeb soon disposed of all rumors that he was to be removed from the Sena torial race in Butan's district. He stated emphatically that he was a candidate for tbe Senate, and intended to continue to be a candidate. "Neither bosses nor anyone else," he said, "can pull me off the track. No matter what deals may be made, they will not include me, in that respect. This is my fight,and I am in it for all it is worth. Flinn is with me as long as I stay. He has told me so, and Quay knows his position." Chief J. O. Brown" is reported to have had a long talk with Quay yesterday afternoon; but, apparently, everything is oS in the way of compromise for the present. The general run of gossip is that Quay's first attempt was to get John JNeeo ont or tne way, and that failing, no attempt was made to follow out the rest of the rather indefinite programme. TWO STORIES ABOUT IT. A gentleman close to Mr. Quay, who didn't want to be quoted, said Mr. Quay came to Pittsburg for the one purpose of harmonizing the differences existing in Butan's district. A large number of per sons wanted to see him on the subject, and it was easier for one man to come to Pitts burg than for 20 men to go to Beaver. An other gentleman, equally close to Quay, is authority for the statement that the Sena tor's visit was really to endeavor to bring about a harmonious feeling with Mr. Flinn, and that tbe Senatorial difference was a very useful cloak for his actual intentions.

Chairman, Andrews will join him at the Seventh Ave nue Hotel and together they will proceed to Philadelphia. No candidate has yet been definitely placed in the field to contest for the Sen atorship against Mr. Flinn. Harry Paul, President of the Americns Club, is spoken of among the Quay men as most likely to be the man. Tne only new piece of legis lative gossin is the candidacy of James S. Henry in the Seventh legislative district. He is at present Secretary of the Legislative Committee on Charities and Corrections, and if fie finally determines to listen to the persuasive voice of friends, will have some verv strong backing. Unless some satisfactory conclusion can oe arrived at with Mr. Flinn, the Quay people will probably make a fight for tho city government in the" spring. HEADF0EE1I0ST WIIH A HOD. Terrlflc and Fatnl Fall of Charles Raffan OS Tlckroy Htreei. Charles Bagan, aged 27 years, who live at No. 43 Federal street, and was employed by B. Meyers, the Fast End, contractor, as a hodcarrier, fell headforemost with a hod of mortar from a scaffold about 5 o'clock last j. evening, receiving injuries from which ho V cannot recover. He was engaged at a new house at the corner of Chestnut and Vickroy streets. His right leg was broken in two places, his spine fractured and he was hurt internally. He is a married man, and hit wife is at present in Scotland. Sllraenlona Escape. On the Fourth of July Mr. W. W. Mo Cormick, of Ethels Landing, Beaver county, tried to substitute a wooden plug for the proper iron one that had been lost from a steam pipe. With a good head of steam oa It made its escape verv suddenly while he was inspecting it, hitting him squarely in the eye, scalding the lids and ball and bruising them so that blood settled through the parts hit. He was taken to Dr. Sadler's residence prostrated. Proper treatment was applied and in the morning was entirely free from pain, and has now so far recovered as to be able to see quite well. ,' JDB.
