A sad accident occurred In one of the
slopes of the Ellengowan colliery this
morning by which a Lithuanian miner
of town named Charles Nork sustained
injuries that will probably result fatally.
Nork and his brother, Simon, and Joe
Kalatts were blasting rock in the slope
to "clean up" the place and had prepared
a shot. After waiting a while for the
blast to take place Charles Nork went to
the prepared hole to re-ignite the squib,
supposing the light given it had spent
Itself. Nork rested his left hand against
the rock and put his right forward to
light the squib. At the same moment, anil
before he could apply the light, the blast
took place, the squib having held fire. The
effect was terrible. Nork was thrown
buck several feet with the dobri-i and was
picked up in a terrible condition. His
right eye was blown out, the left hand
hung In shreds from the wrist, and there
was a compound fracture of the skull.
Tho Injured man was carried out of the

Spp Lettish Vttllev depot in town, where he
received attendance from Dr. lianiiltoi
who U the resident surgeon for the Lehigh
Vulley Railroad Company. The doctor
suid the victim's chances for recovery
were very few.
Notwithstanding the severe nature of
his injuries Nork retained consciousness
He sutlered intensely and his moans and
cries were so pitiful that they moved
many people at the depot to tears. The
victim was sent to the Miners' Hospital
by train.
Nork resides on East Oak street with
his wife and young child. He is a son-ln
law of Mrs. Yodkois, who keeps the hotel
near the Lehigh depot. He is spoken of
as a very respectable and industrious man
and Is evidently very popular with the
better class of Lithuanian people of the
town.

George Daniel Bobb is a resident of
Mahanoy Plane. He paid a visit to town
and made frequent visits to cafes, which
rpsntted in an accumulation of more
Intoxicants than George Daniel could
carry without tiring his judgment. When
passing the barber shop that is located
under the Farmers' hotel he imagined tnat
somebody shouted nt und insulted him.
George Daniel descended tho stairway
leading to the shop, drew a loaded revolver
from his right hip pocket nnd pointed the
muzzle nt the window in the door, mutter
ing that he Intended to shoot or kill
somebody. A young man who wai
about to leave the shop nnd found him
self confronted by the revolver, fell back
badly shocked with fright. Bobb didn't
shoot, however. He seemed to be debat
ing whether, or not, he should pull the
trigger when two young men from the
shop pounced upon him and confiscated
the revolver. Bobb was then turned over
to Policeman Thomas Lee.
When before Justice Williams Bobb
behaved in a very eccentric manner. He
declared hewns George Daniel Bobb, of
Mahanoy Plane, nnd that he had forgotten
more law than all the justices nnd police
of Shenandoah ever knew. Notwithstand
Ing four witnesses appealed against him,
he denied that he used or had a revolver
nnd said all the witnesses lied, but when
Justice Williams remarked that as there
was no claimant for the revolver in ques.
tlon he would ktep It for his own use,
Bobb made;, n very vigorous protest.
While considerably under the iufluenco of
drink Bobb seemed to retain sufficient
intelligence to be technical nnd to tome
pointed questions he took exception.
Sometimes he would say "that is my
business," and at others, "I overrule your
question." He made thi jubtlce Im
patient nnd $300 bail was demanded
Uobb then turned to swearing and other
wise offending the justice and the amount
of the ball was increased to $100. This
did not subdue George Daniel and finally
the justice told Officer Lee to "take him
to tho lockup, and handcuff him, too,
he's too smart to run at large." On the
way to the lockup Georga Daniel seemed
to sober up suddenly and condescended to
give some information concerning him
self. The result was the summoning ot
a relative and a conference that resulted
in Bobb being discharged after payment
of the costs.
