Almost, a Dead Head.

The Auburn Advertiser tells the fol-
lowing story of funny attempt to dead
head on the Southern Central railroad
George Caldwell, of the Southern
Central, is a hard man to get oy, ana
travelling "dead beats" IN search OF
free rides don't "beat" worth a cent
on his train. But Berkshire old girl
came very near playing it on George,
the other evening, Oh the train out
from Owego. AS she entered the car
she had a boy with her OF eight. or ten
wears of aoe. When she occupied her
seat the boy had disappeared, and all
that could be seen was the aforesaid
female-of ample proportions and not
less than two hundred pounds avolrdu- G,l
pois. who sat cornerw1se near the
middle of the seat. A close observer,
however. would have noticed behind
her. and next the window, the top OF
bows hat. which bobbed down out OF
SIGHT as George came along, and then
came up for a fresh supply OF atmo-
sphere as he passed by.
The bows breath gave out, and he
bobbed up little too soon' one tlae'
and George saw how it was himself
and, with the amused passengers slttlng
by. took in the whole tableaux.
The boy was produced IN state OF
collapse, and deposited at his place OF
destination, where, under the lnstruc.
tion of his thrifty parent, he may
eventually grow to be a Credit MoDlnel
Congressman, or member OF some
reform Legislature.

From the New York Herald

and at nine O'Clock last evening Cor
oner Herman was requested to take his
ante-nortena statement, all hopes OF
his recovery being abandoned by the
attending physicians. Mrs. Schmltt,s
injuries, too, will probably prove fatal,
and thus we shall hnve another double
murder. Mr.. Schmitt's wounds, as
also the one received by Mr.. Luby, are
not necessarily fatal, although OF a
very serious nature.
