AGood WSeIl."

On Wednesday afternoon some
workmen who were repairing cul-
vert, on the railroad, one half mile
west Of town, found a small china
doll, which enabled them to practice
a most successful "sell." They laid
the doll upon a board, placed about
it some pieces Of timbers, and Gov
cred the arrangement with a coat.
A couple of boys were then sent to
announce that a baby had been dug
up. The story took. The officers,
the doctors, and in fact almost every
one, not too lazy to travel, rushed
out to see the baby. The first squad
to arrive, contained a doctor, who
carries a goldheaded cane. He stuck
the cane in the ground, DOTTED his
coat and hung it upon the fence,
rolled up his shirt sleeves, and pro
ceeded tenderly to raise the coat!
when 10, his muscles relaxed. as sud
denly as if he had been shot through
by a musket ball. This company
Of sight-seekers walked silently
away, to be followed by others, until
hundreds had looked at the baby.
We plead guilty to square sell.
With visions of a capital local, we
rushed to the scene of horrors, and
raised the coat, for number OF
tender-hearted fellow citizens, who
were straining their eyes to see the
poor little unfortunate.-Vo We,1

Trance or Sudden Death.-On Saturday
morning the 2lst, at Plymouth, Ohio, as we
learn by a letter from friend, Mrs. Monteith,
wife of John Monteith, of that place, was sud-
denly striken. Her husband was awakened
about day break by her arm falling upon him,
and he perceived something allied her He
procured a cup of water, placed it to her lips,
when she took slight swallow, appeared to
choke, and then expired to all appearances.
It was intended to inter the body on the 22d,
but the corpse appeared so life like that the
funeral was postponed until Monday the 23d.
The body remained warm for whole day af-
ter life was pronounced extinct, and drops Of
sweat'stood upon the forehead Of. the woman
to such an extent, that efforts were made to
resuscitate her but without avail. Possibly,
had the propers,means been resorted to at first,
it might have been found to be only case Of
trance. On Monday, however, signs Of death
became apparent, and she was buried, leav-
ing family of four children to mourn with
her husband, her sad taking of. Many think
the death to have been caused by fright, as a
storm was prevailing at the time, and the
thunder terrific. When she retired the even
ing before, she seemed in her usual health,
with no indication OF so sudden calamity
falling upon her.

a~~-S-
Railrnad Alnrder-

Two men, named John SugdOn and W. W
Gage, were arrested at Loudonville, Ohio, on
Thursday night, by Detective G. H Thiel of
Chicago, Superintendent Of Pinkerton's force,
for removing a rail from the track of the Pitts
burg, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad, near
Lucas, Ohio, ON Saturday night last, causing
a passenger train to be thrown from the track,
whereby one man, named Isaac T. Williams,
formerly OF the Dayton Soldiers Home, and
who was stealing a ride at the time on the
front platform of the baggage car, was killed.
They were examined at Mansfield on Wednes-
day, when Sugdon turned States evidence.
He states that be came from England to this
country six months ago, and went to Chicago.
He visited Fort Wayne about two months
since, where he met Gage, who said he was
from New York, and claimed to be in some
patent right business, and offered him (Sug-
dom partnership, which was accepted. They
started in company eastward, arriving at
Mansfield on Friday last. They run out of
money. Gage had tried several times to pre-
vail upon Sugdon to join him in throwing
train off the treck for the purpose Of plunder-
ing the express car, but he had always backed
out at the last moment Arriving at Mans
field, Gage sent Sugdon ahead while be came
into the city, and found q time table at a ho-
tel, by which he discovered the time of passing
trains in the evening. He then went on and
overlook Sugdon, and both returned to Mans
field, broke open a car house, and abstracted
crowbar and monkey wrench therefrOm.
They then proceeded eastward, and on Satur-
day evening, about half past eight, removed
a rail near the Black Fork bridge, on an em-
bankment ten or twelve feet high, three miles
east Of Lucas and eleven miles distant from
Mansfield. They then went to . house near
by, when they heard the craah of the eastward
bound train as it left the track. Sugdon was
so frightened at what he had done that he
could not be prevailed Oh by Gage to visit the
wreck to plunder it. They remained at the
house over night, and next day went to where
they were arrested. They were committed to
jail to answer to the charge of murder In the
first degree. 1t is thought that even without
the admission Of Sugdon sufficient evidence
has been adduced to convict them.

DIsastrous-A Mother and Five Chill
dreh SmGfhered to Death,

4 terrible fire occurred in Dayton
about half past one o'clock a. m.
Sunday. The fire occurred Mt the
residence of friedrich MOelier, No.
205 Main street, and originated, we
learn, from ashes containing live
Goals being deposited in a box on
the back porch OF the house some
time during the evening, and from
the box the fire was communicated
to the rear of the building, which
was a frame, and burned like tinder.
The fire department was promptly on
hand, and proceeded ut once to cX-
tinguish the flames, but discovered
that the fire had been communicated
to the valuable brick residence Of
Mr.. August Froendhoff adjoining,
and turned their attention in that
direction to save it, believing, as
they were informed by certain par
ties, that the family had escaped
from the building where the fire had
originated. Another thing which
added materially to the disaster was
the fact that the alarm was turned
in at a point so far distant from the
confagration, causing the Central
and Eastern engines to make long
and circuitous trip before reaching
it. The family, consisting Of father,
mother and eight children, slept in
the second story. The father was
the first to awake, and blundered
through the window with two of his
eldest boys, and in the fall injured
himself. His escape gave rise to the
report that all the family was safe.
The mistake was not discovered un-
til too late. The mother and five
children were suffocated and their
bodies were taken from the burning
building A babe, but two months
old, huddled close to its mothers
breast, was taken out uniniUred. 1t
was truly a most terrible calamity.
and it seems a terrible blame ought
to rest upon some one for the wrong
information given.

Retter or Worse.

We find the following in the Cleveland
Lender:
"a hbelous paragraph is going the rounds
of our exchanges, charging that a man in
Akron has just obtained his eleventh divorce
For the honor of our neighboring city We
protest against any such SANDER, and call
upon our friends of the Beacon for an au-
thoritative denial"
This ISLANDER" has this much truth about
it. Sam. Leslie, a well to do but drunken
farmer of Northfield some twelve or fourteen
years ago, became so abusive to his excellent
wife, that she commenced proceedings for di-
vorce. BY his promises Of reform and better
behavior, the suit was withdrawn, as were
also four others within as many years. The
sixth suit resulted in her obtaining decree of
divorce in April 1862. He speedily picked up
another wife, who for similar treatment, on
the third trial Ihaving withdrawn two suits
on his fair promises) also procured a decree of
divorce IN October, 1868. The irrepressible
"Samivel" for the third time married-this
time in Medina county-in which county wife
number three commenced and discontinued
two different divorce suits Finally leaving
him and removing TO this county, the third
suit new series) was brought, resulting i'll a
decree of divorce at the present term, the en-
tire number of suits, in this county and Medi-
na, for divorce and slimony, entitled Leslie
vs.. Leslie, being no less than a round dozen.
Samuel is again in the market Who bids /:

ErirhtfnI Rniirnan Accident.

4 frightful railroad accident oc-
Cured this marning at Q o'clock
about two and a half miles from
Paterson, n. j., by which the con
struction train on the Delaware,
Lackawana d Western Railroad was
precipitated from the trestle bridge,
distance Of 80 feet, and several
persons were killed and wounded.
The train, on which was a large force
of laborers, passed along visiting
places where repairs were necessary.
Several places had been attended to
and the train was passing over the
trestle bridge at the point where the
Newark road intersects with the rail
road, when the bridge gave way and
the entire train was prccipitated to
the depths below. The master car
penter, Mr.. Campbell, and 8 other
carpenters, were instantly killed.
Some 80 or 10 workmen were shock
ingly injured, being bruised and
crushed by the descending masses OF
iron, timber and debris. The scene
battles description. Many workmen
are buried in the ruins, and it is be-
lieved death will ensue in the case
of many.

Trlnl of Fire Engines.

The indianapolis Commercial of a
recent date says:
The Latta steam fire engine and
the Silsby engine from Seneca Falls,
New York, were tried to-day on
Tennessee street. The former stood
at the cistern at the corner ofWash-
ington street, and the latter at the
cistern at the corner of Ohio street.
Both had been filed to within fifty
barrel; of the top, and the trial was
in pumping from one to the other.
They began work at y minutes to
IL O'Clock, and in 40 minutes the
cistern used by the Latta engine was
running over, showing that the
Silsby had pumped fifty barrels the
most, At the trial Of the engines a
few weeks since, the Silsby threw
279 feet, and the Latta 256 feet.

ROBERT H ELLIOTT, of Asphodel, Canada
West, arrived in this city on the 2:30 A. NJ.
train from Detroit yesterday morning, on his
way TO Kansas. He took an early breakfast
at the Island House, where he became ac-
quainted with young man and the two start
ed out for a stroll into the city. When on St
Clair street, near Madison, tho companion of
ELLIOTT was met by young man who pre-
sented a bill for freight, remarking that the
goods were at the depot and the freight must
be paid at once. ELLIoTT's campanion was
in a bad fix. The banks were not yet open
and he had nothing with him but check on
a Chicago bank for 81 300 He turned to Ell
LIoTL to borrow hundred dollars, but tbs
latter only had sixty in greenbacks. The
sharper thought this would help him out and
ELLIOTT took the check as security and hand
ed over tho $50, which was Immediately given
to the manhaving the freight bill. The sharp
er told ELLIOTT to 60 to the depot where the
goods would be found, and to remain with
them until he came, promising to be there in
twenty minutes to pay back the money and
get his check. 1t was not six o'clock when
ELLIOTT discovered that he had been the vic
tim of confidence layers and he at once went
to the station house and related his case to De-
tectiYe HANKS, but of cource nothing could
be done. ELLIOTT had a ticket to Kansas
and some gold, which enabled him to prose-
cute his joUrney.-TOledO Commercial.
