dience assembled at the Opera House last
evening to witness the great JanauSchek in

Serious accident yesterday
Mr.. James Griffin, an engineer of the
A. NJ. & o. r. R., was terribly and,
we fear, fatally injured at the Howe
truss Bridge four miles east of Bris-
toll. He was running gravel train
and being at the rear end of the ca
boose whan it started, he climbed to
the top in order to go forward to his
engine. When he had gotten on top
of the caboose the bridge was near
and he endeavored to stoop in order
to pass under it, but was little too
slow in doing so and was struck in
the top of the head by the arch and
was knocked off, When found he was
lying on the stringers of the bridge
and was brought back to the Central
Hotel in this town, where he, has
since been delerious. His head, face
and person are bruised, his head very
badly so. Drs. Vance and Temple
ton arc waiting upon him and there
seems little hope of his recovery.
