The speed became terrific, and when a sharp turn near the foot of the hill was reached, the car made a wonderful leap, lauding tracks uppermost in McCarthy’s run, six or eight feet below the track grade. Tho accident occurred at a lonely spot and it was quite awhile before assistance reached the sufferers, who were wedged tightly in the wreck, which was most complete. Wlieu the conductor saw that the car was lieyoud control, he laid down on the floor and advised the others to iollow his example. The killed were found wedged under tho roof of the car which had been smashed in upon them. The escape of any oi those on the car was miraculous.

He struck on his back aud floated downward in that position, and a few seconds later, before the eyes of the horror stricken spectators, was swept over the brink. He was about 53 yoars old, a veteran of the late war, married and had two children. He is supposed to have been mentally unbalanced. Tho body has Dot been recovered.

Porter, who has been swindling women in many towns in this state, aud probably in other states, was arrested Saturday by Deputy Sheriff Matthews. Porter did business under several alias, and represented himself to be an agent of dress pattern firms. He would induce the milliners aud dressmakers to sign a contract by which they were to receive 50 per cent on the sale of dress patterns. Porter would exact the cash on the case, sign the name of one of the alleged firms to the receipt and contract, aud that would be the last heard of him. The firms he pretended to represent had no existence. When arrested he cried and begged for mercy. He practically confessed to his wholesale swindling. TOO “FLY” TO BLOW OUT THE GAS.

Sioux City, la., Oct. 14.—Ludwig Terrmanu, a farmer near this place, repeated the time honored experiment of blowing out the gas at the Hotel Fowle, with a slight variation of his own invention. On retiring, Terrmanu, realizing that he knew little of city ways, decided to leave the g.vs burning rather than take any chances. Tho light bothered him so much, however, that he finally resolved to extinguish it, and having heard that it must not be blown out, fanned it out instead with his nigiitcap. Fortunately the transom was open and tho rural gentleman escaped with his life, although he is still very ill from the effects of the experience. FELL IN THE RIGHT PLACE.

HARRISON NOT RESPONSIBLE. McKinley Hill \V»» rasned Without Either Protest or Commendation.

That paper further says: “When the bill went to the whitehonse for signature the president did not, as fur as is known, show any displeasure or offer criticism. Nor did he subsequently express displeasure with the law. If the law was ever held responsible for the defeat of 1892, President Harrison should stand blameless.”
