THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE SATtTBD AT MOPJSTNG', OCTOBER 12, 1895
Count Tolstoi
.Who is in closer sympathy
with humanity, its needs and
its sufferings, than any man
who is a.ive today, says:
"Go through a crowd of people,
preferably city people, examine their
tired, anxious, wasted faces; re
member your life and the lives of
those whom you have known inti
mately; recall the many sad cases of
sickness and sorrow of which you
have heard, and ask yourself the
reason of all this suHvriug and de
spair. And you will see, however
strange it may appear, that the
cause of ninc-tcntbs of human mis
cry is some chronic weakness or
disease, that this suffering is use
less, that it could be avoided, and
that the majority of people whose
lives are darkened by ill health
nii;.;ht be strong, vigorous and happy"
Coupled with the words of
this grand man is the great
truth that four-fifths of all
diseases arise from kidnej'
liver, or bladder complaints
Can you uot really see, then
why that magnificent remedy
Warner's Safe Cure, is so
popular? It is because it pre
vents these troubles or cures
them if taken in time. If you
doubt this ask any educated,
'well-informed doctor, druggist
or professional man.
CARBONDALE,
A NARROW ESCAPE.
A Train Nearly Crashes Into a Flat Cor
with Lively Results.
What might have been a very serious
accident an which probably would
have been accompanied by loss of life
was very narrowly averted on the On
tario and Western yesterday afternoon.
T. C. Robinson has used the pockets
to store away lumber, and a switch has
been laid to the point extending from
the main track of the Ontario and
Western railroad. A car which had
been loaded with lumber stood in the
switch and was .blocked by some sticks
being placed in front of the wheels.
Some children had been playing around
the car in the morning and had re
moved the blocks, letting the car run
down toward the main track. A stub
switch had been put In, but It was not
thrown and the car ran to the track
and resied upon the frog which led to
the main track.
The little children became frightened
at what had happened a'nd ran away
without telling any one of the danger.
A passenger train, which arrives In this
city at 11.34, was about due at the time.
Some of the people who reside in the
vicinity, however, saw the danger, and
one woman ran down the track to flag
the train. Some young men had got
ten assistance In the meantime and the
car was shoved back and blocked. The
car was discovered none too soon, as
the passenger train rushed past a few
minutes later.
BADLY BURNED.
A Woman's Clothes Are Set on Fire While
Picking I p Coal.
Almost serious and very painful acci
dent occurred to Mrs. Margaret Bar
ret, an elderly lady residing on the
Greenfield road, which nearly resulted!
In her death.
Mrs. Barrett, with her daughter, went
to a culm pile near the Erie breaker to
pick coal. The weather was very cold
ami they built a fire to warm them
selves at times.
At the time Mrs. (Barrett was stand
ing near the fire warming her hands,
wh'm a sudden gust of wind blew the
flames against her, setting her dress on
flra The flames spead quickly and In
a moment she was one mass of fle. Her
daughter did not lose her presence of
niir.d and at once started to pull the
blading dress off. She succeeded In
doing so at last, but not until her
mother was badly burned. The daugh
ter was also badly burned about the
hands.
. 'Some of the people near by gave Mrs.
Barrett some clothing and she started
to walk to her home, about a mile
distant. She suffered great agony and
eoirl hardly walk. The start for home
wae made about 4 o'clock, but it was
not until 9 o'clock that the unfortunate
wotan reached her house. There It
wall found that her arms, hands and
legs were very badly burned. A doctor
was summoned, who made her as com
fortable as possible, but her life was
dlspalred of at first. She is now some-
what better.
Strange Affliction.
Tile medical fraternity of this place
(are verymuch puuled over the affliction
whlyh has come to John McArdle, of
.flhatinon's store. Mr. IMoArdle was
stricken last Saturday, and since then
has "been nnable to articulate his sen
tences distinctly. His mind appears
active, and his throat seemingly Is un
impaired. While some words are spoken
with difficulty other sentences are com
menced oorrectly but ended In a mnn-
,ner entirely different to the thought
that Is wished to be expressed. Mr.
MpArdle' "bodily health appears
good, but the difficulty In his speech is
perplexing. - . .
Sewer Contractors Did !Vnt Hid.
The city councils met last evening,
and of the principal matters considered
was the opening of bids for extending
f the main sewer. The folds handed In
..were confined to local contractors, In
cluding Wndsay & Van Loon and sev
eral parties from Scranton. A number
r of leading contractors of the county
responded to the advertisement for
bids, and came here and looked over
.the "plans. In conversation with the
city fathers, they found a. lack of con
fidence In the project being carried
