ACCIDENTS.
The escape of the 9:80 train on the
P. & W. for being wrecked last Thurs
day morning was almost miraculous.
George Shaffner's team was hauling
atone on a sled that morning, and while
the slfd loaded with three large stones
one a yard square was on the track,
the passenger engine struck it, and
hurled the stone into the creek, but the
train kept the track. The sled was cut
in two and one of the large stones
struck the end of a tie and broke it off;
and yet that train, fortunately for the
fifty passengers on it. kept the track.
It was running pretty fast at the time.
Horatio St. Clair, a son of John St.
Clair, dee'd of Franklin twp., was kill
ed at an oil well in Muddycreek twp.,
last Saturday. He and another man
were rebuilding the derrick at the time
and he was up in it about 40 feet, and
the other man was hoisting lumber to
him, when the line broke. This caused

alighting upon a stone. He lived but
a few hours after.
Miss Mary Moore, daughter of Robt.
Moore 'if Portersville met with a terri
ble death last Saturday. She was bak
ing at the time, and went to the stove
with a lighted lamp in her hand. The
door of the range opened with a spring,
it struck the lamp and broke it. and
Miss Mary was instantly covered with
burning oil. She ran shrieking into the
garden,her mother and sister Annie ran
after her and caught her and tore the
burning clothing from her, but she died
from her injuries next night. Mrs
Moore and Miss Annie were also badly
burned.

The Butler C'o. General Hospital. J NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
The new Butler County General Hos
pital building will be completed in
about six weeks. Plasterers, carpen
ters and painters are putting the finish
ing touches on the interior of the build
ing now. On the ground floor are two
I hot-air furnaces, laundry room, drying
! room and cellars. On the first floor
are the anaesthetic and operating
! rooms, parlor, dining room and men's
! ward. On the second floor are three
private wards, the matron's room.
I obstetrical ward and womana ward. On
the third floor are six bed rooms, kitch
en. servants dining room and a general
ward. A dnm waiter runs from the
celler up to the kitchen, which is in the
northeast corner of the third floor. An
elevator, designed principally for carry
ing patients, is placed about the middle
of the building. The shaft is built
solidly of brick to the roof, so as to les
sen the danger of fire spreading by this
means. Fire extinguishers and hose
will l>e placed on every floor, also toilet
and bath rooms. Gas! water and elec
trict fixtures are complete.
The operating room is on the south
side of the building, al>ont 23 feet in
dimensions, and lighted by five win
dows and a skylight.
A wide veranda extends along the
north and east sides of the building and
the main entrance is at the middle of
the north side. The driveway leads
from the old plankroad to the west
One of the most pleasing features of
the hospital is the view of the surround
ing Connoquenessing valley which one
has from nearly every part of the build
ing. When ft is completed and the
grounds terraced-and gardened, it will
indeed be a beautiful place in which
to d : spense Christian Charity. It is an
honor to our town and county and es
pecially to the Hospital Association,
who despite adversity and opposition,
are bringing their plans to a happy,
useful and creditable consummation.
The association meets Monday after
noon in the Y M. vJ. A. to make pre
paration for the dedication.
