A man in Charleston, Talla
hatchie county, the other day,
went into a store and bought a
package of soda, which hS laid
upon the counter while he left the
store for u few moments. Com
ing back he saw what he thought
was his soda and put it in his
pocket. The next morning a por-
ton Of the contents of the pack
age were put in the bread to be
used at breakfast. Those who
partook Of the biscuit were at.
tackled by vomiting and upon ex.
animation it was discovered that
the package supposed to be soda,
was arsenic and was so marked on
the package. BY some mistake
he picked up the wrong package.

NEWS SUMMARY.



Last evening, as the o'clock train on
the West Chester Railroad neared the bridge
which crosses Chester creek, below the juno
ton with the Baltimore Railroad, the engi-
neer observed that the eastern end of the
structure had given way owing to tha-heavy
rain, but before the engine could be stopped
1T struck the bridge and almost instantly was
precipitated into the creek, together with q
baggage car. The only person injured was
the engineer, George Evans, who was re-
moved to the Pennsylvania Hospital. The
fireman, seeing the danger, jumped from
the train and thus escaped In jury. At the
depot large crowd congregated. and great
excitement was manifested on account of an
excursion which had left in the morning, and
the fear was that some of the excursionists
had been injured, but happily at half-past 8
o'clock the train arrived, and the greatest Joy
was exhibited on the part of friends and
relatives, who were anxiously awaiting the
arrival Of the train.
The following properties were damaged
yesterday afternoon during the storm
The lager beer saloon of Charles Walder
northwest corner of Front and Cumberland
streets, was struck, and the fluid passing
down one wall shattered il, together with q
large mirror in the bar-room.
The residence of Mr.. Summerville, No.
1447 Venango street, was also badly dam
aged. A daughter OF MIR. Summerville sus-
tanned a slight shock.
Two houses on Woodbine street. above
Wharton, one on Wharton street near Wood
bine, and one at the southwest corner of
Eighth and Wharton, were also damaged.
The dwelling No. 1920 North Twelfth street
was set on fire, but was not much damaged.
No. $50 st. John street was also injured in a
similar way. The new Belmont Water Works
also suffered some damage.
The messenger of the Baltimore Railroad
Company was robbed few days ago of two
thousand dollars at the Girard Bank. He
had satchel in which was deposited the
money he carried to and from the bank, and
he ordinarily kept it locked. While he stood
at the counter in the bank, with the satchel
open, he placed in it two packages of one
thousand dollars each. Very soon after he
locked it without making an examination of
its contents, and when it was opened at the
depot the two one thousand dollar packages
we're not in it. He then remembered that
while he was at the bank counter man stood
close to him, who must have sklfully ab-
stracted the money from the satchel.
