A Woman Falls from an Emigrant Tain
at PerryeStrange Affair.

Last Thursday evening, between the
hours of six and seven o'clock, when
the through freight train from Erie, for
Cleveland, was near Saybrook Station,
the engine broke down, and the train,
which had four cars of emigrants for
this place, was detained until the ar
rival of another freight train from the
East, which took portion of the cars,
including the emigrants and their bag
gage, to Cleveland. When the train
arrived at Perry it was necessary to
repair the engine somewhat before
the train could procced.-Aftera attend
ing to the matter the train was again
started, and the sudden jerk given by
the cars by the hurried starting, was
so unexpected that an oldGerman wo-
man, who was standing ON the plat
form of one of the cars, was thrown
violently to the ground, and rolled
into the ditch. The occurrence was
witnessed by her husband, who was
also standing upon the platform but
the accident was so sudden that he
was unable to save her. The strang-
est part of the affair is that, although
there were several employees near, he
never manifested, either by word OF
gesture, that any wrong had occurred,
otherwise the train would have been
stopped, and the woman taken aboard
The train arrived at the depot in due
time, but still nothing was said in re-
gard to the matter. until yesterday
morning, when the circumstance was
related to the police officer in charge
of the emigrant depot, who made tht
facts known to the proper authorities
They instituted an immediate searcf
for the missing woman, who was
finally found at Perry, "right side VI
with care" and none the worse fol
her friendly visit to her country cous
ins. She arrived here this morning
and Joined her husband and little boy
who were anxiously awaiting her ar
rival, in order to complete their jour
ney to the far West.-Plain Dealer

"A Re,narkable Case.

A remarkable case-one going pow
erfully to illustrate the danger of
trusting to purely circumstancial evi-
dence, is reported by the Hartford
Times as having occurred few days
ago. The New York Express train
for Hartford, it says, was between
North Haven and Wallingford station !;
the engineer saw bare-footed man,
in his shirt-sleeves, dart out of the
woods near the road, and place some-
thing wrapped in newspaper, on the
track. 1t was too late to stop the
train, and the pilot struck the obstacle
which proved to be heavy railroad
iron bar, with great force, knocking it
fifty feet and breaking the pilot. On
arriving here, word was given to the
police, and Chief Chamberlain sent
down officer Cosgrove to investigate,
having full description of the man,
color of pantaloons, hair, ETC.. He
found a man whose dress in every
particular corresponded with the des-
cription, and whose bare feet exactly
fitted the track left by the would-be
destroyer. He was brought to this
city and committed for examination.
To-day, as the same train came along
again, the same man who placed the
bar on the track yesterday again dart
ed out of the same place, and throw
ing his arms above his head, stood and
let the engine strike him. He was
badly hurt, but not killed. He proves

told him to put the bar across the rails
and the train would stop, and again,
that if he stood in front of the engine
it would stop for him. He was left
in charge of officer Cosgrove, and will
be properly taken care of by his
friends. But the evidence against
that man who was kept last night in
the station-house here was enough to
have sent him to the State Prison fol
life. igaf- 5.E stf % tniH
