Despite the warning whistle and

and Conrad Kondiak continued in a des
perate fight on tho railroad tracks.
Finally tho pilot of the locomotive,
which was running forty miles an hour,
tossed the combatants into the air. They
landed jn front of the train and wore
ground to pieces. The remains of the
two men were found strewn along the
track for 500 yards.
The victims, young unmarried Hungar
ians, had attended a christening during
the day at Enterprise, and incurred each
other's enmity. They walked down the
Reading Railway a distance of seventy
five yards from the station. Removing
hats and coats, they started fighting.
When the crew and passengers hur
ried from tho cars to see what bad
occurred a number of foreign residents
from Enterprise assembled and began
to make threats at the crew for not
stopping in time to prevent the tragedy.
The passengers kept the Hungarians
back as the crew gathered the remains
of tho victims and placed them in the
station to wait for the arrival of an
undertaker, after which the train pro
ceeded to Williamsport.
As the train passed through Shamokin
a shoo worn by one of the dead men

Operators to Aid New Road.
The Individual Coal Operators' Asso
ciation at Serantou ratified the action
of their representative, Edward L. Ful
ler, in combining their interests with the
now Delaware Valley and Kingston Rail
road, which is to bo the continuation of
the Erie and Wyoming Valley Railroad
from Lackawaxen to tidewater, by the
route of the abandoned Delaware and
Hudson canal. The projected railway
of tho independent operators will there
fore be abandoned. Tho Operators'
Association will at once transfer to the
new company the 9,000 tons of heavy
steel rails delivered to them some months
ago at last year's low prices, and these
will suffice to construct nearly one-half
of the new road.
The Erie and Wyoming Valley Rail
road, which is now placed in the strong
est position possible for anthracite ton
nage, will at once contract for upward
of 1.000 large coal curs and no less than
thirty big mogul locomotives, so as to
be fully prepared for Its increased
traffic when the new road is completed.
With the tidewater facilities at Kings
ton and Eastern markets at their com
mand, Mr. Fuller said, in addressing
tho operators, there was sure to be an
incroased demand for anthracite. The
new road, he further said, would tend
to bring about considerable reductions
in hard coal freights.

Wilketiburre Stowaways.
A cable dispatch from Paris to tho
New York World says:
"On our last voyage from New York
to Havre the French Liner La Brotagne
brought in two girls, stowaways, who
aro sisters, from Wilkesbarre, Pa., one
of them being 18 and the other 20 years
of ago. They couldn't afford to come to

away in the steamship's hold and came
over in advance. They are prepossess
ing lassies and when discovered and
summoned before tho ship's captain
they expressed an eagerness to work
and wero finally hired to wait upon a
group of wealthy feminine tourists,
who brought tho girls here and have

"Kidnapped In New York."
"Kidnapped in New York," which
comes to the Grand opera house Mon
day evening, is spoken of as being one
of the best comedy dramas touring tho
road this season. Barney Gilmoro, who
plays the part of Mr. Dooley, the Irish
detective, obtained distinction the last
throe seasons in "Hogan's Alley." aud
it is said that his success has been even
more pronounced. The part fits him to
a nicety and enables him to illustrate
bis skill as a character comedian. The
play is written around tho recent abduc
tion of Baby Marion Clark. While the
play is written to lit the times, it is said
to be vory carefully constructed, and is
free from the hair-raising climaxes seen
in later day dramas. The company sup
porting Mr. Gilmoro is spoken of as
being above the average. Special scen
ery is provided for the production.
The ladies who desire to enjoy them
selves on Thanksgiving Day should by
all means dispense with cooking their
poultry, and be sure to go to tho Priml
tive Methodist church on Fern street.
We know everybody likes a good meal
on Thanksgiving Day especially, and
this can be had for the small sum of 25
cents.
