William \V. Blaine son of Mrs Eliza
A Blaine of Institute Hill a firman 011
the main line of the Pittsburg and Wes
tern railroad met death in an unusual
and terrible manner Saturday night.
The following account of the accident
i« from the Pittsburg Dispatch
There have been many horrible deaths
; on the rail, but that which William
I Blaine, a fireman on the Pittsburg A
j Western Railroad, met last nijrht at 10
; o'clock must t>e put down as uue of the
1 worse in the history of traffic In
j leaning out of his cab Blaine was struck
j by a loose board projecting from a pass
i ing freight train. The board penetrated
j his breast about eight inches. The
| uian died in horrible agony while the
! board was beins; removed.
| Blaine was on a freight train coining
ito this city. As it passed another
| freight going west at Elfinwild his body
! encountered the obstruction. Both
trains were goinfj at a pretty rapid clip,
and a sharp lookout ahead was being
kept. Suddenly the engineer of the
train on which Blaine was fireman j
heard a shock, and glancing across the
cab he saw the place of his fireman was '
empty, and he stopped dead. The man !
lay between the two tracks with the
broken piece of board sticking in his
