Tbe following additional particulars of
the death of lleury Engleka, reported la
last week's H ei: 4 Li are taken rrom the
fieri. u Beit-rd :
Hcury Eugli-.ka, tbe sixteen year-old
son of Mr. aud Mia. Frank Engleka, of
Allegheny tow nship, w as ao weriously in
jured on Sunday last abiut five o'clock
by the contents of a loaded shot gun pass
ing through his right leg that be lived
but five hours thereafter. The load
struck tbe Inch jjst atove the knee.
severing it entirely wilb the exception of
a little of the skin oa one side, and shat
tering the b.ns of the thigh so tbat they
were nothing buta mass of splinters. The
blood rushed ia torrents from the dis
sected arteries, soon reducing the victim
to next to a pulseless condition. Dr.
Oarey was hastily seut for aud arrived at
tbe Engleka home at about eight o'clock
tiut found the boy too redaoad to respond
to any attempt to tiring ao-iut a re-aion
of the vstem.
Just bow tbe l.iad came to l discharg
ed from the gun at tbe U;ne and the man

Eadermaa Tbropp.
The lill suit of Kitfus C Haderman
against Joseph E. Tbropp w as again con
tinued on Tuesday morning.
Shortly after the opening of court, Mr.
Reynolds, on of Mr. Thropp's counsel
addressed tbe Court aad stated that
much as be regretted it be was obliged to
ask for theconlimiaui-e of tbe case on ac
couutor the serious illness ol Mr. Tbropp.
He then ailed Drs. E. J. Miller and W.
P. S. lK-ury, w ho, a;i:r i.eaig korn, tes
tified that Mr. Tbropp was suffering from
iiervisis pront-ration, with a teniiency
toward paralysis and iu danger of total
c'liiapsa. Tbey statea trial Mr. i nropp
bad told them tbat be bad been under
the care of a Philadelphia physician for
several weeks and bad come to Everett
against their protest.
Mr. Jordan, counsel for Mr. Haderman,
strongly resisted tbe continuance, urging
tbat the case bad gone over on several oc
casions and should now lie tried and to
arup!ih this be said be would agree to
to Everett after tbe testimony of the
piainttlf bad closed, at a time w hen Mr.
Tbropp could be interrogated on any
branch of Ibe plaintiff's case, and take
Mr. Thropp's deposition. After some
discussion br the counsel Jude Evans
remarked that tbe ground laid for the
oiulinuau-.'e 2a rue within the rule and be
therefore granted tbe application.
Mr. Tbropp lr.fl Everett Wednesday

Tbe largest lumber deal that bas le a
completed in thii section of the country
ror many years aud proliably for all time,
sava the Connellsville Courier, waa con
summated a few days ago by H. C. Has-
ton,tbe well-known lumler dealer of tbi-t
place, and eastern capitalists and brm.
embracing the Pbil-deiphia ttl Compnry
aud other xncerns of prominence. The
l1 v.onir.l an inestimable amount of
hard work aud careful investigation,
cause of the mixit-g of interciU in tracts
transferred, embracing in all almost I'.UO
a.-TM if the tiuest timVr lati.l iu tbe
country.
.Huston's purchases are in two tracts.
Tbe largest and ro.sst valuable is kiow n
as the Pea Vine Flat. This lies on
eist side of the Youghigheny river,
the vicinity of Iudlan creek aad on
is ttie finest w hit oak timler in the Uni
ii iusl States. The second sectk n
of tbe tract on the cast bauk or tbe Yough-
iogheny river embraces w bat is know n as
the P.iT.lsr Hollow tract, containing
a'-res, and ibe third section embraces tbe
1 :!' tract or 2.i" acres. In the w hole tr t
on tbe cast side of tbe river there are
acres.
On the w est side of tbe Youghiogbei j
riier Huston rurchasotl L13." acres. The
timber on this tract is almost identical
with that on the east side of the stream.
principally white oak, red oak, walnut
and poplar. The white oak is 'sed prin
cipally in trestle and car building, and
tbe red oak and poplar go to tbe eastern
market- In addition to the two tracts in
the vicinity of Indian creek Huston pur
chased tbe plants and lands of tbe Mark
letoo Lumber Company, one of the large
mountain concerns. Tbe tract of timber
there embrace 4,000 acres, and is covered
ita timber such as is on tbe Indian creek
lands, though probably not quite so vain
able. On tbe Markletoa tract there U a
railroad seven miles long and two f.ne
eaw mills. A locomotive and cars go
ith this purchase. This tract adjoins
the Piukertoa tract of Hast.n, which in
elude 5,0 acres, and which has also two
mills, a steam locomotive aad 1 J miles of
railroad.
The third tract purchase! by Huston
- 1 .M ... m
em traces a large piece oi isuu
FrieudavHle, Md., on which are tbe finest
spruce trees to be found in tbe Alieghe-
nies. In this deal 2,2 acres are invnlr
ed, making the total new lands acquired
bv Huston S.405 acre. Added to tbe h,k
acres at Pinkerton, tbe 4i0 acres which
Huston owns at Norris crowaing, tbe lands
and mill at Obiopyle, which ara being
worked, tbe ft.resu and plants employ 350
men. Tbe season is particularly active at
this time, the many bridges under oon
strucuou, aud tbe active building opera
tions in all parts or the country furnish
ineTeay market for all good lumber.
There are some acre worked off in tbe
tract at Pinkerton and at Obiopyle and
Norris Siding, but tbe tract at Indian
creek is particularly untouched by the
woodman's axe. The tendency is for
lumber to increase in price as time goea
by, and it will not be very long till Penn
sylvania, or tbe w estern part at least, wiu
have a crying need for timber.
