A FATAL RAILWAY WRECK,
On the Cambria and Cresson
Railroad in Which
TWO LIVES WERE LOST
11 Happened Ome Mike Below Westover
The Cans Unkbows,
Om Tuesday, about 4 o'clock p. m. a
horrible railway accident occurred on
the Cresson and Cambria railroad
about one mile below Westover which
resulted in the loss of two human lives,
that of Flagiman John Wilson and of
Stanton Montgomery, the latter a
young man who was riding from West-
over to Five Points
‘The uniucky train was the Beech
‘Creek local, No. 78, bound for Ma-
haffey, which contained first a
box car, a cur loaded with bark, three
loaded with heavy ent stone and a cab-
in or caboose. The {rain was running
along at ite asual speed around a
curve when the car loaded with bark
in some unknown way mmped the
track on the left. breaking loose from
the box car which was next to the
engine. As it went over the embank-
ment the other four cars, which were
behind it, followed, completely. turning
the whole five upside down in the
ditch. The conductor, Chas Car, Flag-
man Wilson, Brakeman Galbraith and
Geo. Prindible, of Patton, who was on
his way to Mahaffey, were in the cabin
just before the accident happened, little
thinking that the pext minute two
men would loose their lives. As
man Wilson rushed to the front door
to see what the trouble was and it is
supposed as he opened the door he was
throun to the ground as the cabin
went over, and caught beneath it!
where his body was crushed. -
The other three who were in the
cabin escaped wihout any serious in-
jury with the exception of Mr. Prindi-
-ble, who renefved a severe cut .on lis
right wrist by img against |OME

was found under ‘that past of the
debris. .
The body of John Wilson was qaiok-
ly taken to his home in Clearfield. He
leaves a wife and children. Mr. Mont-
gomery's body was removed to his’
home at La Jose. He was unmarried.
Not a particle of the cars were left
on the track after the smash-ap. The
track was torn up for more than a han-
dred feet. The wreck train from this
place and from Cresson were soon
telegraphed. for snd arrived on the
scene at 5:30 o'clock and by 10:30 new
rails were laid and the track was made
| passable. Dr. Worrell, of this place,
was notified at once and arrived at the
. scene on the Set train, but couid not
give any assistance to the unfortunate
ones, except Mr. Prindible, as they
had passed beyond all human aid.
The north bound passenger train
was delayed about four hours at that
point. . The Engine which was hauling
the local was No. 7, the one on which
Engiuvees N. A. Butler was killed dur-
ing the wreck in Patton April 5th.
A FMR AND FESTIVAL
A Patten Fireman's Question Recpeetfaily
Answered by the “Courier” Man.
The COURIER representative was re
cently asked by one of the members of
the Patton Fire company some manner
by which they could procure money to
expend in the purchase of home, ete.
The dance question was first proposed,
"but after duly considering that while
this was the most delightful manner of
entertainment to many, others could
derive no enjoyment from tripping
the light fantastic, and another under
the common order of fair and festival
was oonsiderad to be more in harmony
while the mercary stands at 90 and
while little more than a repitition of
many former entertainments held else-
where the idea may not prove devoid
of practical merit.
It i= an entertainment that admits of
much originality and one which is al
ways liberally patronized and is seldom
known to, prove otherwise than suo-
It is conceded an excellent drawing
card to offer prises to the young lady
who is most successful in soliciting the
greatest amount of money. A com-
mittee of several of the most popular
young ladies might be formed who
pot excepted, until you start. There is
were willing to enter into the friendly
contest, and a neat sum would be the
resuit realized by the firemen.’ Of
course the pretiy girls who attend the
booths and tables prove an atiraction
that is also quite irresistable. Another
suggestion that is exceedingly popular
is that of procuring those who are ac-
complished in singing or elocution to
assist at the . atertainment. There are
a number in Patton who have remark-
. able talent in this direction and who
wounld doubtiess willingly lend -asesist-
ance for so worthy a cause.
Hogs ve. Hicyeies.
Considerable’ opomplaining is done
lately about the swine, homes ete.
which run at large in the borough of
Patton. How guickly the ordinance
against riding bicycles on the side
walks was passed and put in force and
from running at large, already passed,
not enforced. If you stop to think
which is the most injurious to your
property, etc., you will quickly be con-
nuisance. Almost every day you can
see pigs or horses running loose over:
the sidewalks and breaking into gard-
ens and destroying them. In well
‘ regulated boroughs a property owner |
.is not allowed to even keep hogs ina
pen let alone having them running at
large. The ordinance is a good one
and should be enforced by all means.
Accident at Summerhill. :
Joseph Sharp, a farmer by occupa
tion and residing near Summerhill,
this county, met with an accident
Wednesday of last week which will!
cause him to remain from work for
some time. Mr. Sharp, who is 54 years
of age, was visiting his sister, Mm.
Nipps, at Summerhill station. He was
‘ready to cross the Pennsylvania rail-
road tracks at that point and was
waiting for an east bound freight train
to pass. As scon as it did so he stepped |
out only to be struck by extra 1340
west bound. He was hurled to one
his right arm was broken and his face
was cut in many places. :

rier that over half a dogen men have
lost their lives on that engine or on the
train to which it was attached.

John Ardell, of Philipsburg, a young
man employed in W. J. Donneily's
saw mill, will remain in enforced idle-
ness for several days as the result of an
. accident which befell him - while par-
suing his duties at the mill. On Mon-
day morning about eight o'clock while
Mr. Ardell was occupied at the saw
a piece of siab became loosened from
the log and struck him directly in the
mouth with such force as to inflict an
ugly gash in both the upper and lower
lip and locs¢in several teeth. He at
once hastened to the office of Dr. Mar-
ray where it was found that several
stitches would be required to sew
up the wound.

Mail Route Changed.
The Hastings Tribune says that on
Wednesday the postmaster at that
place received official notification that
the route from Hastings to Flinton bad
been curtailed, and on and after Aug-
ust 10th, the route will extend only
from that place to St. Lawrence. The
change is an improvement inasmuch as
the postoffice at Flinton can be served
equally well by mail. The change was
made on the recommendation of the
postmasters at Hastings and Flinton,
tegether with that of Mr. George
Boone, the carrier.
A Gand Showing.
Attention ie called to the statement
of the First National Bank of Patton
published in this issae. The showing
is certainly very creditable consider-
ing the exceptional conditions prevail-
ing in all lines of business throughout
this section practically ever since the
bank opened on October 10th, 198

tution must be a source of much grati-

they do all the same. It is not proper
to say “catching fish,” but you should
say “killing fish,” and do not call a

manlike to call it a rod. If you intend

fish do not rise, ‘take something” wo
keep your spirits up, and the more you
“take” the more fun you vill have.
If you are lucky you will kill a few
“fish, but more likely you will not, as
jack in fishing comes very seldom. - If,
however, you do have success, fill .
your basket nearly full of grass or

first and place the large ones aper-
