Fatal Explosion. 1
rottsvllle, May 27. Ex-Sheriff Jere
miah Reed, Superintendent of the
Pottsville Water Company, after a
visit to one of the large dams on Boad
Mountain to-day walked to New Cas
tle Station, where he expected to take
the train due shortly after 2 o'clock to
return home. While standing near
the station, apart from tho waiting
crowd, the engine with the train
backed down the mountain. Just as
the engine passed the point where
Reed was standing, and as it was on
the point of stopping, its cylinder
head blew out, one piece of which
struck Reed iu the right side, broke all
his ribs, and spun him around, while
another piece struck him behind the
left ear and crushed in the back of his
skull. The shock of the explosion
was heard two miles off. None of the
other waiting passengers were injured
though a' piece of tho eyliudcr-hcad
was hurled through the window of a
house on the opposite side of the road
and the windows in the vicinity were
broken. Reed never drew another
breath. Another engine was tele
graphed for, and Reed's body was
brought to Pottsville at 3 o'clock. He
was a pioneer of this vicinity, having
been the first white male child born
here. At the time of his death he w;is
82 years of age. For twenty years past
ho was connected with the water-sup
ply of Pottsville. Ho was Sheriff of
the county from 1?43 to W'J) and lias
held other resposible positions. An
in:;ue"t was held to-night by Dr.I-'mith,
ih Deputy Coroner of PottsviDe,
iH'd a verdict of accidental death

Two Polish women, one married
and tho other single, were, among the
immigrants who arrived at New
York recently in a-European steamer.
At Ca-tle Garden hotn were found to
be suil'.'i jug from small -pox aud were
sent to the hospital. On the way to
tho hospital their tickets were changed
in some manner and the married
woman was entered as the single one,
aud vice versa. The husband of the
tornier went to the hospital frequently
to inquire for hU wife, and, although
nho died soon altar landing, the an-'
thorities, supposing the other was the
married woman, gave encouraging re
ports of her condition. At last she
v.us pronounced ciuvd end the hus
band whs sent for, and upon his
arrival the mistake was for tiie first
time discovered. Of course the hus
band whs disconsolate, but toe
romance of the thing may wtriko him
by aud by ami suggest to him that he
marry tho woman who so singularly
took the place of his wife.
A member of a Pennsylvania
banking association, which was not
incorporated sold his shares and with

vertised as a director, ami 110 notice
was given of his retirement, further
than to omit his nvme from the pub

failed. A depositor suM this ex-director
for his claim, on the ground
thht the deposit wamadein ignorance
of his withdrawal, of which notifica
tion ought to have been given. The
Supreme Court has decided for the
plaintiff. Judge Ht'Trelt says :
When an ostensible or known mem
ber of a copartnership retires there
from and wi-lics to shield himself
from liability for further debts of the
linn, it is m'ctssary that the persona!
iioiice of his withdrawal be given to

The following items are from the
Brookville Jtffw.oiiian:
A Terrible Accident. On Thursday
evening last, while Israel Clapper, re
siding near Eaiericksville, was cut
ting on a stump in nis yam, using a
doi.ble-bitted axe, his little daughter
two years old came up behind him,
and being unnoticed by the father,
was struck by the axe in swinging it
back. The point of the nose was cut
olf and a gash cut across the face, cut
ting the upper lip clear through. Dr.
W. F. Malson was called on who
fastened the wound up, and reports
that the child will recover, without
being much disfigured, as the cut was
clean and smooth.
At the hour of going to press we
are unable to announce, much If any
improvement in tho condition of K
L. Blood. He still continues to suffer
untold pain from his leg, and at times
it is thought to be impossible for him
to long survive ids pain. Few men
iu tills community could have stood
so long the terrible sufferings endured
by Mr. Blood, and have lived through
it as long as he has done. All that
can be done by physicians and friends
to case his sufferings is being done
aud the greatest solicitude in his con
dition is manifested by the entire
community.

Among the nets passed finally in the
House Inst last week was one pre
venting the sale of any article iu
Rembbmee of butter in packages un
less distinctly and durably marked
with the words "imitation butter.
The following clause was also in the
hill:
Every proprietor or manager of a
hotel, boarding house or restaurant
vlo shall serve, place or cause to be
served or placed in parcels on the
table or counter for their hoarders or
customers any such article or yubstaneo
as herein stated shall post, in at leant
four conspicuous places in the dining
or lunch room of said hotel, boarding
house or restaurant, a printed label
benring the plainly printed words.
"HmMXion butter or cheese, served

than one inch in length, which shall
be printed in not less thati two con

The Ch icago ln1:r-Ocean tells a
story about an absent minded but de
vout citizen of that metropolis who
went to church last Sabbath carrying
owr his arm what he supposed was
Ins new spring overcoat, but was hor
rified when he got there and for the
first time obssrved that he was con-
pieuously transporting his new pair
of spring pants. The package came
homo from the tailor last Saturday
night, and the garments were bung
over the banisters in the front hall.
His wife hurried him so that he was
"rattled," and, making a grab, he got
hold of the wrong article. He erowd-
1 them under the seat of his pew and
whispering to the sexton when the
service was over, made arangomocts to
call for them Monday morning.
-New York, May HO. The police
to-night received a dispatch from
Black well's island explaining that the
rumors ot an attempt at e-cane of
prisoners from Blackwcll's island
which were current in the city to-day
grew out of the fact that at midnight
between Saturday and Sunday two
workhouse prisoners stole a skjfi' from
a canal boat and attempted to cross
over to the city in it. The cries of
the men were heard at the peniten
tiary and the department warden
witn a guart boat succeedea in rescu
ing one man, but the ether sank and
was probably drowned.
Proat, $1,200,
"To sum it up, six long years of bed
ridden sickness, costing ?1'10 per year,
$1,200 all of this expense was stopped
by three bottles of Hop Bitters, taken
by my wife. She has done her own
housework for a year since, without
the loss of a day, and I want everybody
to know it for their benefit." X. E,
