Fatal Accident on the P. & W.
What the railroad men call a "'.mil of
order*'' caused a collision on t' e P. .1- W.
R. R. at Wittwer Station la»t Friday. The
east bound train wa- behind time and had
orders to pa s the wret bound traiu at
Sharpsborg, but the orders were changed ■
to WiUmer aud both trains arrived at that
station at the same time, running fast.
One engineer and both firemen jumped j
and -aved themselves, but a new engineer I
nam d sarver. stuck to his engine and was 1
buried under the coal throw n forward !
from the tender when the collision occur- !
red. For halt an hour he was held against
the hot fire box with the cscaging steam j
pouring over him, and the skin and flesh |
was scalded from his limbs. He was taken !
to the hospital and died that night.
The only other person seriously injured
w.is A. G. Campbell of Sonora, this county. I
He saw the trains approaching each other
and leaped from tLe baggage car and had I
his left arm dislocated at the elbow.
A market car loaded with calves bought
in this connty followed the-qpgine of the j
west'bound train, and most of the calves
were killed.
A coroner's inquest was held Monday;
aud the jury found that the telegraph
operator at Xew Castle, named Cooper,
bad changed the orders, whereupon Cooper
was arrested on the charge of manslaughter
and taken to Pittsburg, where he entered
bail in $3,000 for bis appearance at next
criminal court.
Suicide of O. P. Hennon.
Trouble and death followed each other
closely in the case of O. P. llennon, the
agent of the P. A W. R. R. at Reibold.
The Company became dissatisfied with
his management of the business there: the
Auditor of tho road with his successor pnt
in an appearance Wednesday morning;
the accounts were looked over aud Hennon
was discharged and and the other man put
in his place.
Hennon left the station about 4 o'clock j
that afternoon, and went across tho track
to his home nearby*. He fouud his wife
suffering from a headache and induced her
to go to her bed room and lie down; then
returned to his kitchen, took out his set of
upper false teeth.pointed his pistol towards
the roof of his mouth and sent a bullet
through his head.
His wife hurried to him and called for
help, but ho died soon after. They had
been married but a year before, at Wam
pum, Lawrence county, had lived happily,
and no explanation can be given of his sui
cide excepting his desperation at losing his
situation.
He was 20 years of age, had no children,
was a member of the J. 0. A. M. and had
been in the employ of the R. R. Co. for
about 18 months.
Esq. McAboy and a jury of six held an
inquest that afternoon and decided that he
had died by his own hand.

The Pennsylvania Railroad's New
Summer Excursion-Route Book.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Kxcursion
Route Book for the season of 1891, just
from the press is undoubtedly ono of the
most elaborate reference compendium issu
ed by the railroad company in the world.
The company this year has used new illus
tration printed on a very high grade of
paper,'while a decided departure from the
old cover heretofore binding the work is
seen in the new one. which is beautifully
illuminated, and would do crdit to the
brush of a Rossi, so cleverly French is it
in every detail. The new map embraces a
territory from Canada to the Carolinas, and
from the British possession of New Brnns
wick to beyond the Great Inland hakes.
When comparison is made with this vol
ume of 'J72 pages, 100 illustrations, and
over 1300 routes, a book which enters its
year of manhood the first day ol Juno, 1891
and the tiny pamphlet of 24 pages and 03
routes issued twenty one years ago by the
Pennsylvania Railroad, and considered at
the tithe a marvelous departure in railroad
advertising the growth is hardly credible.

Ladies' Fine Shoes—fine and pretty styles at sl, $1.25; grand at $1 50;

this is an old chestnut. Our $2 shoe is fiaer and better in every way than
these so-called marked down shoes at $2.50. It is a dishonest buainesa and
an imposition on the public.
