—Nearly all well regulated towns boast or
ganized gaugs of boys, armed and equipped

And pity us poor scholars,
They've hired a fool to leach our school
And pay hira forty dollars.
-The famous fa»t train on the P. R. R., be
iweeu Chicago and New York, met with its
lirst serious disaster, near Salem, 0., before
daylight last Friday morning. The boiler ex
ploded, instantly killing James Richard, the
engineer, Charles Rhodas, the tiremau, derail
iug the train and throwing it down an embank
ment, and injuring several of the passengers
and employees. Richards, the engineer, for
merly lived in New Brighton, and was known
to many citizens of the south west corner of the
..oiinty, and Rhodes was a native of Wampum,
|.avrenpe coijfity. IJis parents, it is stated,
lormerly lived in thiscounty,
Mr. I. Newton Miller, one of
the firm of Miller Bros., died at his residence
in this town last Thursday morning. Some
thing over two years ago he took a bail cold,
to which he paid but little attention, but
which seriously injured his left lung, and
finally brought about his death by what is
called quick consumption. Mr. Miller was 45
years of age. During the war he spent three
years in the cavalry service with the Army of
ihe Potomac. He was a highly respected mem
ber of the community, as was well attested by
•he large number of Lis fellow citizens who
lollowci] bis remains to the grave.
—The managers of the P. 6l W. R. R., say
that that part of the road between Butler and
Callery will be changed to the staudard guage
by the first oi June next, anil, in the course of
lime the road will be widened to the standard
guage the whole distance to Kane, as it passes
through a very rich lumber district, and the
lumber business of the road, already heavy, is
steadily increasing. The widening of this road
between Callery and Butler will undoubtedly
benefit the town, and also the road. It will
make the road a more impular passenger route
to the cities, and it will make Butler as desira
ble a location for manufactories as there is in
the country. We have plenty of water, coal
and natural gas here, besides competing rail
road facilities, and why manufacturers should
brcfe|r die Allegheny Valley to Bi(tler is" tpore
than yf* can comprehend.
Ibis State has lost a curiosity of long
jlimdiug by the deQtb of a German mentioned
in Dicken. 1 "American who has fo»
about ha'f a century persisted in getting into
prison for petit larceny. He was an old fash
ioned thief a fellow who was so oblivious to
modern progress that he never comprehended
that he could make money and expose himself
to less risk and discomfort by taking his pe
culiar abilities into politic*. The local admin
istration of Philadelphia has enabled hosts of
petty thieves, as well as great ones, to a:nas*
handsome fortunes without ever getting be

—On Friday last the County Auditors met
in the Treasurer's office and corrected their
late Report. The error referred to last week
consisted in a duplication of the item "Consta

Blown from the Rails.
SALEM, I)., March 20.—A most ter
rific, and, at the same time, miraculous
railroad accident occurred two miles
east of here at 4 o'clock this morning
on the Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne <fc Chi
cago R. R. Engine 308 of the east
bound Chicago and New \ ork limited
express, while rounding a sharp curve
and running at a high rate of speed,
exploded its boiler with terrific violence,
blowing the engineer and fireman 400
from the engine and killing them in
stantly.
After the explosion the engine jump
ed the rails and tore up the track for
about 300 feet, and then plunged down
a steep embankment with such fearful
velocity as to throw its tender fifty
feet further on, on the opposite side of
the track The combination car fol
lowed, and was thrown on the engine
with such violence as to force the
drivers of the engine through the floor
of the car, which was entirely demol
ished.
The dining car was thrown on its
side and went down the embankment,
totally wrecked. One of the sleepers
also went over the embankment, and
landed on its side at the bottom. The
other two sleejiers, which constituted
the rest of the train, did not leave the
track.
For a few moments after the explos
ion there was a scene of inextricable
confusion in the interior of the sleepers
The cries of the passengers were heart
rending, and the snrieks of strong men
could be heard crying for help. So
great was the excitement for the first
few moments after the accident that no
attempt was made to ascertain the ex
tent of the damage. At last a porter
broke one of the windows and the
frightened passengers succeeded in
making their escape from their impris
onment. It was soon found that none
of them were seriously wounded, the
ill-fated engineer and fireman being the
only persons killed.
That the loss of life in such a wreck
was not frightful seems incredible, as
there were a number of ladies on the
train, several with young children, all
escaping uninjured. One of the color
ed porters was found unconscious in
the smoking car, and was thought to
be dead, but when brought into the
fresh air he revived.
—The Spring term of the Wither
spoon Institute began March 17, in the

building, which is spacious,'elegant and
commodious. Tuition will be charged
only for the balance of the term.
Very satisfactory arrangements have
been made with the railroad authorities
for students who desire to board at
home. Monthly "46 trip'' tiekata can
be procured at about one-fourth of the
regular fare. A Normal class has
been organized for the benefit of teachers
