at No. 2 shaft, yesterday morning.
Uicluiiil O'H'.lon, the blacksmith, had
Hie misfortune to have his lipioii
caught between the belt and wheel,
which threw him to the lloor. a dis
tance of eighteen feet, causing a se
vere wrenching of the knee cap and
other injury to the knee. He was re
moved to bis hi'tne on Muln street,
and upon the advice of Dr. Plakeslee
was afterward. taken to the Kmer
geticy hospital, nt farboiulale.

About at persons from this place
accompanied by two bands, attended
the Republican rally at Susquehanna.
Saturday evening. Among the enthu
siastic KepuldlcaiiM was Thonms
Kvans. of this place, who had an ex
perience that he will remember, lb'
was standing on one of the platforms
of the train and as the excursionists
were inuring Jefferson junction at a
high rate of Fpeed, Thomas fell off.
I'm or two persons saw him fall, bill
did not act promptly In having the
train stopped, so no one went back in
search of Thomas, who has hud a num
ber of daring leaps, falls, etc. While
the bands were playing, and the poli
ticians gathering. Thomas was gal tier
ing himself to the station nt the Junc
tion, and was soon in the blissful r
gion of dreamland. The train upon
returning found Thomas at the station
with his face wreathed in smiles and
decorated with a few scratches, not
much the worse for his fall. When ho
fell he wore it black soft hat. but was
now the possession of a silver cap.
That was one of the tilings that was
worrying him. He remarked that If
ho were a Democrat lie surely would
have been killed.
MOSTROSK.
Soldi n A. Woodruff, a brother rt
Oeorge K. Woodruff nnd William
Woodruff of tills Place died In New
York on Friday last. His remains were
Interred at Moriches. L. I., on Sunday.
The remains ot the late Dr. S. S.
Million! arrived here last Saturday af
ternoon nt :t o'clock. They were Im
mediately taken to t ho cemetery where
Lev. K. A. Warriner conducted the ser
vices of the l'.piseopal ritual.
A Montrose cliiy.eii while :ii the
I'.inghaiiiton fair .'as! week look sev
eral counts of those present ps to Un
political badges or but tuns worn: bis
report is sis follows: First count of
pit). McKlnby "S; others. 22: second
count of lint. McKlnley, W; others.
third count of WO. AIcKinb y. I'd: others,
".ii. These counts were observed from
the ciinniioe gate and ut different hours
during tlie day. The old saying.
'Straws show which way the wind
blows" evidently holds good In Drooine
county.
Tlie (ire laddies expect to have n red
letter day Tuesday next. They de
serve all the support which Montrose
can give them.
In the Montrose "Illtistrntod" Repub
lican Dlmock D. Senile and an un
known, 'Visitor" by name, but none
other than Frof. Fayette McKeliszle,
an old Montrose boy, hnve had for
several weeks u controversy regarding
sound gold money nnd free silver.
"Visitor" has, metaphorically speak
ing, broken every one of the :17S bones
in tliu body of "D. D. S." Air. Seu-le
while in Montrose has advocated free
allver la a respectable manner, lie has
not, like those of his following, told
his adversaries that they Were liars,
brainless nnd fools, but has advanced
his theories in u cool, dispassionate
manner but to no avail.. This is com
mendable in Mr. Searli. but he found
no solace in Montrose while advocating
free silver. The people here cunnot be
fooled.
Speaking of free silver, a traveling
man who has for some time been in the
south, recently visited Montrose nnd
told The Tribune man that there III
tleorgla, Alabama, and other southern
sections, the larger towns in a county
were altvud.w. ngitating the ituestion as
In which would have the mint. In their
ignorance I lny suppose that if Itryan Is
elected each county will have a mint
for the free and unliiiilled coinage of
silver. This is a. sample of what the
flee silver men do to secure votes.
A I'.iyan and Sewall club was funned
Saturday night. About thirty or forty
Free Silver Deinocials. Fopoeiats,
Fopulisls and others met In the arbi
tration room ut the court house. Dr.
Johnnie Wilson was made president
anil "Congressman" W. C. Cruser sec
retary. After hearty cheers for u .1
i tut dollar and some Vague remarks
regarding a cross of gold and crown of
thorns the meet ins; adjourned.
