Funiielflner'8 Adventure In a Well.
George Fumlelgner, a Willinmsburgh
Gevmnn, found himself in Paterson on
Saturday night last week, without money.
At it threatened to rain, he rambled about
the suburbs, and came across what he sup-
' posed to be an old ahed back of the Orphan
Asylum at Handy Hill. It proved to bo a
long uuused well, about VO feet deep, and
Mr. Fundcigner aiiddouly found himself at
the bottom of it. Being unable to get out,
he yelled for assistance. The old well is
near a grave yard, and several persona who
hoard the yells on that stormy night ran
home convinced that It wai something su
' peruatural. One woman rushed into her
kitchen pale as death, throwing her market
basket'down on the floor, vowed to her
husbaud that she would never as long as
aha lived, pass that grave-yard at night.
Finally some one who heard Fundeiuger'a
groans informed Policeman Bailey, who,
, with the assistance of some neighbors and
a clothes Hue, pulled Fuudeinger out. He
was considerable bruised and was taken to
the almshouse, where he remains. Fortu
nately there was very little water in the
well, but the bottom was covered with
jagged stones.
A Narrow Escape.
Altoona, Pa., May 10. One of tho
most miraculous escapes in the history of
railroading happened here this evening to
the Cincinnati Expiess.duo at 0 o'olock. In
coming down the mountain, the engine
lost control of the train by the automatio
air-brakes becoming unmauagable to hold
the large train of twelve cars. The en
gineer whistled "down brakes" and camo
into the depot at the rate of twenty-five
miles an hour, whistling for clear track,
which had the effect of bringing thou
sands to the depot to see steaming through
' at a terrible, rate, but fortunately the en
gine which was in waiting at the Ninth
tveet crossing was run into and stopped
the runaway train. Three engines were
disabled, the cylinder heads being blown
out. The passengers were terribly scared.
Never since Altooua was a railroad centre,
has an accident occurred which created
such a panic The engineers, Aaron
Dougherty and George Cassiday, deserve
special mention and credit for remainiug at
their posts. No persons were hurt.
A Trick Shown Up.
One of the big "cards of the circus
which visited Salem last month was the
shooting of a woman out of a cannon "a
living canuon ball," as the posters said.
Well, they met with a mishap while per
forming the feat in a town in Maryland,
last week. When this feat (?) was about
to be performed the spring in the big
wooden cannon was sprung before the
powder which makes the report was touch
off. The consequence was that about the
time the performer ejected from the gun
reached the trapeze, the powder went off
with a " boom," thereby showing up the
trick to the audience. Salem Standard.
Anxious to Die.
Reading, May 17. Quite a strange case
of voluntary starvation is reported from
Amity township, this county. The
person is Miss Anna Halloway, aged 19,
daughter of the late John B. Halloway,
formerly a leading citizen of that section.
Although living in a very pleasant and
pretty country home, and of a family com
fortably situated, the young woman per
sistently refuses to partake of nourishing
food and is slowly wasting away, gradually
sinking under her voluntary slow starva
tion. All her nearest and dearest friends
cannot change her from her seemingly
earnest determination to starve herself to
death.
Nearly Perished In a Box Car.
When the eastern-bound freight train
arrived at Winuemucca, Nev., on Monday,
last week, a man cried from one of the
box cars : " For God's sake, let me out !"
The car was burst open, and the individual
who emerged was found to be nearly dying
with hunger and thirst. He was apparent
ly one who belonged to the upper class of
society. He said that bo got drunk in San
Fraucisco on Friday, and when be came to
his senses, be found he was locked up in
the car. Further than that he could give
no explanation.
Beat at his own Game.
Scott rode fifty miles, in New Mexico,
to oblige a friend by murdering Donovan.
He found Donovan in a saloon, gained an
introduction, and sat down to play an os
tensibly amicable game of cards. But
Donovan was an observant man, aud saw
that bis companion was more excited than
the game warranted ; so be slyly drew his
Lis revolver, cocked it, and laid it across
his knees under the table. Consequently,
when Hcott cried, " I've come to kill you,"
and attempted to shoot, he received a death
wound instead of giving one.
Great Fire In Nashville.
Nasiiville, Tenn., May 17. The most
destructive conflagration seen in this city
for years, broke out this morning at 10
, o'clock in the large paint, oil and glass
house of Warren Brothers, corner of
Church and College Streets. The Are
commenced in the cellar, where several
hundred barrels of paint and oil were stor
ed, aud was not discovered until it worked
its way to first floor. Thirty buildings
were burned before the fire was under con
trol, causing a loss of half a million dollars
