FATAL ERROR

A Narrow Escape From Death of Hick Dodson.

A Vandalia passenger Train off the Track at 3:24 this Horning.

A Tramp Killed—Nick Dodson's leg Broken—Express Messenger Hollenbach's arm Injured and Other

Damages.

This morning a Vandalia paseenger rain flue oast, bound at Belleville, a town 20 miles west erf Indianapolis at 8:24 ran off a switph with results which, though disastrous arc not nearly so muoh so as might have been expected from the speed

The circumstanccs arc these A freight train east bound had gone int to a switch at Belleville to aliow the nigh express to pass. The head switchman with freight, a man named Mansfield, sa at the switch some distance .ahead of the freight engine and had set the switch all right for the passenger He says lie was perfnctly wide awake when ho set the ewitch and as the train was a little late he waited awhile and being exhausted without jliis knowlewge dozed off. lie was startled by a sound of an approaching engine he supposed in the hunry was his own and that the passenger had passed. In a confused way he threw the switch o\tan and in mi instant the passenger engine with the En gineer Nick Dodson, at the throttle, ran off the track followed by every car in the train except one. The brave o7d Engineer who has run so many thousand miles with little or no injury to himself, suffered a comjKJUnd fracture of the right leg between the knee and ankle, that is a fracture with the bone protruding also alike dislocation of the ankle joint. Dr. Link gives it as his opinion that the limb can lie saved. The broken glass also cut Mr. Dodson's neck and face badly but not seriously. The fireman, B. F. Muller, jr., was bruised up considerably but. is able to walk.

Mr. Aiaos Hollenback, an Adams Express messenger had his right arm quite badly hurt. With re markablo good fortune no passengers on the train were hurt except a tramp who was steal iftg a ride on the forward part of a postal car. lie was so terribly injured that he died just as a special reached Indianapolis* bearing his body.

This morning Mr. C. R. Peddle' and all the ofllcors of the road went out to the scene of Alie wreck. The 'locomotive one of the new ones, is badly damaged Thanks to the air brakes and .the Janney coupler the coachcs with the simple ex ception of tht. postal car, weie not injur ed expensively.

The wreck caused a delay -of the first Western mailable here at ,10:10, until 1 r. M. Mesrs. Dodson and Mullen were brought in om a special early this mornsng. Railroad employes say some of the most terrible accidents known in their circlcs happen in just the way this one did Mansfield lias been breaking for some time and lias been considered .a reliable man.

Wade's Poem.

The following is the alleged poem that Wade, plio is to be hanged shortly, at In dianapolis, will deliver from the scaffold Several papers have spoken of the literary merit of it, but the merit is only ap parent to those who always find transcen dent merit in a mean man. that "would make something of him if it were not for his failing"— drunkenesS, a weakness for killing people, or some such •bjectionable quality. If he were not to be hangad for the murder he ought to hang for the poem (!), so let him swing.

PURITY OF FAMI LY

Among the many specifics introduced to the public for the cure of dyspepsia, indigestion, derangements of various kinds, and a general weakness of Ihe human system, "within a few years, decoctions of vegetable bitters have hekl a considerable place. Some of these have for a time had a considerable sale, but with d&ubtfully good effects and much injury Such should never be taken i«k the hu man body. Often bitters have been made highly popular for a time by l»eing large ly charged with whisky and other spirits thus ministering to a depraved appetite. In this way the medicinal purpose for which they were avowedly offered to the public has been missed, and sale to which they attained before their true character was thoroughly known has (completely fallen away. The writer is his visit to Rochester has had the pleasure of meeting with "Hop Bitters," an entirely differ, ent compound from those alluded to. It five years since their merits were brought before the public, and they have steadily increased in favor until they are, without question, the moat popular and valuable medicine known. The exceed ing intrinsic value of their leading components is in no way destroyed or lessenod by the deleterious quality of any other ingredient. They contain, along with tho purest hops, bucliu, .mandrake and dandelion, other medicines recognized as possessing the most effective curative properties. They are specially beneficial to clergymen, lawyers, literary men and all those subjectod to the strain of mental labor. They cure almost every disease of the stomach, liver, kidneys ana urinary organs. For nervousness and al: its attendant ailments they area nev^r-failing remedy, giving tone to all the organs where formerly there was feebleness and an all-prevailing feeling of weakness.

They have attained to an immense sale, which is the surest proof of their successfully meeting th« wants of the people. We have seen letters from old established chemists testifying to this, and others from private individuals, stating that after they had had the services of the most distinguished medicel men without any benefit, they had experienced perfect relief from their complaints by the use of these invaluable bitters. They discharge their curative powers without any of the evil effects of other bitteie.—N. Y. Mercantile Review.

A Voice trom thePress.

I take this opportunity to bear testimo ny to the efficacy of your "Hop Bitters." Expecting to find them nauseous and bitter and composed of bad wliisky, we were agreeably surprised at their mild taste lust like a cup of tea. A Mrs. Cresswell and a Mrs Conner, friends, have likewise tried, and pronounce them the best medicine they have ever taken far building strength and toning up the system, was troubled with costiveness, headache and want of appetite. The two former ailments are gone, and the latter greatlv ipiproved. I have a yearly contract with a doctor to look after the health of myself and family, but I need him not now.

1 heard in my neighboorhood that your Hop Bitters was doing such a great deal of good among tho sick and afflicted with almost every kind of disease, and as I had been troubled for fifteen years with neuralgia and all kinds of rheumatic complaints and kidney trouble, I took one bottle according to directions. It at once did me a great deal of good, and I used another bottle. I am an old man, but am now as .well as I'can wish. There are seven or eight families in our place using Hop Bitters as their family mediicine, and arc so well satisfied with*it they will not use any other. One lady here had been bedridden for many years is well and doing her work from the use of three bottles.
