The body of the conductor was found soon after the occurrence, but the bodies of the fireman and engineer were covered by the wreckage and could not be reached, Several men of both crows were injured, Two stories as to the cause of the disaster were sent out this morning. One was that the freight train got beyond the control of tho crew at the Summit and jumped the rail at the ICoystono colliery. Tho other and best authenticated story is that the crew failed to observe the red lights dis played by the coal traiu and crushed Into It. Buy Keystone tlour.

Delegates fpr the coming Republican county convention are being set up in the different districts, The Garb bill is the most nrominent issue in the selection of delegates to the Republican county convention.

It has become qulto the fashion with street railway companies throughout the country to own a park where summer amusements aro given free to the patrons of the road. The Schuylkill Electric Rail way Company of Pottsville will open a summer amusement resort at Tumbling Run aud have employed tho famous Cyreue, a dancer who Is considered tho best attraction in the amusement world. Cyrene, aside from her professional work, Is a most Interesting woman. Born at Puebla Nueva, Island of Cuba, In 1870, she was early apprenticed to a circus, where sho was taught to perform all kinds of circus accomplishments, and at sixteen years of age was considered one of the best bareback riders living, and for two seasons was featured through this country by tho Barnuni circus, Six years ago eho quit the circus ring for the stago and has since devoted her time to dancing. Her professional engagements have taken her to all parts of the world and in soma strange countries. She has only recentlv returned to America from China, Japan aud India. Sho saw the battle between the Chinese and Japanese in Corea that delivered the Hermit kingdom into the possession of the Japanese. A fac slmllo of the passport given Cyreue by Admiral Ito and which passed her through the Japanese Hues aud into Nagasaki, Japan, was recently published In the. New York World. Another relic Cyrene prizes highly is tho order of tho Ameer of Afghanistan, commanding her to perform at the palaco of the Atueer. From India she brings many strange and curious documents which aro unintelligible to us, but are the commands of powerful po tentates for her to perform for royalty. A substantial preseut was always the result of her performance before any prince. During the summer Cyrene will perform exclusively for street railway companies and next winter will fill professional en gagements In South America. It U not unlikely she will appear In Shenandoah during the summer. Negotiations to that effect have already been started through the influence of tho Herald, When you want good rooflnp. nl gas fitting, or general tlmsmlthlng done call on E. F.
