A FEARFUL ERROR.
C Fraak Seeliag Shoota ead Kill Freak,
pettebon. by Aocldent.
Yesterday morning between the houra
of 7 and 8 o'clock the little town of
Maltby. Just above Kington, wag the
scene if i horrible accident, which coat
the life of Frank Pettebone. a young
man 2S year of a.-e. e mployed aa a
cWk at the Maltby colliery of the Le
high VaHey Coal company. He was a
son of Walter Pettebone. of Wyoming
annue, Ikirranceton. Pettebone was
at his desk yesterday morning with
John Young, the other clerk, when a
party of the company's engineers from
the main office In Wllkee-dtarre entered
the colliery office before going Insula
the mine to do some surveying. The
engineers stood around in the otlioe be
fore Koing. and chatted for a few mo
menta with the clerks. One of the en
gineers. C. Frank Seeling, of 1S1 East
Market street. Wllkes-Harre. took
down a Spencer magazine carbine from
the wall and began to examine It. It Is
a heavy weapon, that shoots a 50-calibre
ball, and is the same as is kept ut near
ly all the otfli-ea of the Lchleh Valley
collieries. Seeling peeped through the
barrel, and saw that there was no cart
ridge Inside. He was unfamiliar with
the workings of the magaxlne. and
probably did not know that when he
had pulled the lever he had pushed a
loaded cartridge Into the barrel.
No ope paid any particular attention
to Seeling and all were startled by a
loud report, which came when he
pressed the trigger of the weapon.
Pettobone fell forward on the desk at
which he was working, without a word,
and then dropped heavily to the floor.
The desk was overed with blood, which
poured from a wound in his head, and
tt.tth.ered in a large red pool on the
lloor near the foot of th? desk. All
who were In the otlioe were startled at
l!i j sight, but quickly realized what had
happened. They ran to Pettebone's as
sistance and found that the huge ball
had torn through his head and entered
stdewise and partly from behind. The
bullet had gone right through the
brain, and Pettebone probably never
knew what had happened. Dr. Hayes,
the nearest physician, was called in at
once, and saw there was no hope. The
wounded man neither moved nor spoke
from the time of the infliction of the
wound at S o'clock, and his death about
two hours later.
When Seeling realized what he had
done, he was In an agony of despair.
Dr. Hughes' face told him that he had
unintentionally given a death wound to
a friend, and he grew pale, seized the
gun which had been the agent of Pet
tebone's death, and tried to shoot him
self wllh It. The other engineers of the
corps seized him. and endeavored to
quiet him, but he would not hear them,
and continued to strucgle until his
fellow workmen tied his hands and
feet, and laid him on the floor.
In the meantime word had been sent
to Assistant Superintendent Fred ftl.
Chase, of the Lehigh Valley Coal com
pany. Superintendent Lathrope being;
out of town. Mr. Chase went to the
colliery at once, and had the body of
Pettebone removed to the house of
Vllllam McDonald, on Owen street,
Maltby, where Pettebone had been
boarding during the absence of his
parents at .Harvey's Lake. Drs. Sing
er and Thompson, of Forty Fort, were
sent for at once, but could do nothing
for the unfortunate young man, wh,i
died In the ambulance before he
reached his father's house in Dorrance
ton. Superintendent Chase had tele
graphed to Mr. and Mrs. Pettebone at
Harvey's Lake, and they came on nt
once, but did not arrive until nf'ur
meir son a ueam. feueoone was an
Industrious and popular young man,
well liked by his employers and
friends, and his death Is a great shock
to all of them. He had been employ5
by the Lehigh Valley Coal company
about a year and a half.
Mr. Chase also arranged to have a
closed carriage at Malty, and Seeling
was taken from there to the county
jail, as he was In no condition for a
hearing. Yesterday afternoon, when
Seeling had calmed himself somewhat,
he was brought down from the Jali by
Warden Boland before Judge Jfennctt
for a habeus corpus hearing. The de
fendant was represented by Attorneys
Woodward and Davis and District At
torney Fell represented the prosecu
tion. Heeling sat pale and nervous
next his friend Robert Mercur. The
poor fellow was keeping up with dif
ficulty, and his eyes looked red and
swollen. Mr. Mercur silently comfort
ed lilm by the grasp of his hand and
the scene was pitiful.
J. A. (Brown. Frank Gardner. Llew
lyn Owens, 'Reese ThomaH. members of
the engineer corps testified that the
affair was purely accldentlal that
Seeling did not point the gun at all
and had looked through the barrel to
see that It was empty. Judge Bennett
considered the testimony sufficient,
and Seeling was released on ball,
which was furnished at once,

she had meant it all In a Joke. She
moved to Lincoln county shortly arter

elsewhere for a bride. He "popped" to
Katie EskinB. aged 15 years, and ob
tained another license, with the same
result.
Recently Miss Combs moved back to
her old home. The 'squire ascertained
that the old license would do If he ob
tained the consent of the fair Ameri
ca, and he renewed his wooing. Tired
of his attentions, she prepared a hick
ory withe and awaited his coming.
The 'squire proceeded to lay his heart
and fortune at her feet and she pro
duced the whip from the folds of he
dress and applied It so vigorously that
he cried for mercy. Now he threat
ened to prosecute her neighbors, alleg
ing that, by false representations, they
