SEVERE ACCIDENT.
Three Person. Badly injured.

Saturday, about noon, span of horses owned
and driver by Mr.. Chas. W. McKenney took
fright on Kennebec street near the station OF
the Portland & Rochester railroad, and becom-
ing unmanageable dashed up the street in
double quick tine. When near the corner OF
Hanover street the team colded with the car
riage of Mr. Aaron Hodsdon, of the firm of
Caldwell & Hodsdon, who was riding in top
buggy with his wife and child. 1t appears that
the runaway team attempted to pass the car
rage, but in SO doing the pole of the jigger
struck the back of the buggy, and the horses
divided. each going one side of the carriage and
horse The carriage was crushed to atoms
and no one who witnessed the fearful sight ex-
pected to see either of the three persons come
out alive. The three horses abreast dragged
the shattered buggy and its occupants and the
jigger passed up the street for some distance
before they could be stopped and the mass
separated. Mr.. and Mrs. Hodsdon and child
were taken up and carried to their home on
Cumberland street. Mrs Hodsdon was bleed
ing profusely from the face Drs. French and
Small were called and found that Mr.. Hodgdon
had broken his collar bone, the child had brok
en- leg and Mrs. Hodsdon was badly cut about
the face. 1t was miraculous escape from a
fearful death. Mrs Hodsdon will feel her in
juries severely as she has just recovered from
severe illness and this was the first time she
had been out since her recovery.
The horses were very highly valued, having
been recently purchased at cost of $500.
They were both severely cut up about the legs.
The injured persons were as comfortable as
could be expected last evening, and the attend
ing physicians are quite certain that they have
sustained no internal injuries

The MUSEUM "A large house at the Mu-
scum Saturday evening attested the increasing
popularity Of this place Of amusement. The
bill presented was an attractive one, Mr.. Bart
lett appearing in his finished impersonation of
Plumper in "Cool as Cucumber" and Miss
Florence Ellis, endeared to Portland under her
stage name of Sappho, appearing with Mr. Ellis
in ''The Ring and the Keeper. Miss Eli IS
was enthusiastically received by the audience,
and was called before the curtain at the close
of the play. She gave spirited, artistic and
decidedly Sapphic renditioul of the Lady of
Ashton-a role which affords excellent oppor-
tunity for the display of her genius. The eve-
nine's entertainment closed with the amusing
farce of sour Gal.''
This evening Robersson's splendid comedy
of "Caste" will be put upon the boards. On
this occasion the eminent comedian and COM
edy actor, Mr.. Belvil Ryan, will make his first
appearance. Mr. Ryan has taken the role of
Eccles in "Caste'' over five hundred times in
.the principal cities of the Union, and is pro-
nounced unequalled in his impersonation of
the character The st. Louis Times says 'Mr'
Ryan's rendition of the maudlin Papa Eccles
is a piece of character acting which is simply
perfect. Tne tendency toward exaggeration is
successfully repressed, and the role is made as
charmingly ludicrous as De Bars Toodles"
Mr.. Ryan will be supported by the talented
comedienne, Miss Violet Campbell, the popu-
lar actress, Mrs. 81. P. Grattan, and Mr.. Bart
lett. The evenings entertainment will close
with the laughable farce ''The Two Potts." in
which Messrs. Ryan and Calder will sustain
the principal parts.

A H ARD CASE.


Last evening about o'clock officers Stevens
and Very were called to house on York
street near Centre street to arrest man who
had been beating his wife. When they arrived
at the house they found the man-James Con-
ners by name-just leaving. The woman was
lying at the bottom of the stairs in fit. The
man was taken to the station ami the woman
given in charge of the neighbors. At the end
Of half an hour the officers returned to find a
sad state of affairs. The woman was lying on
the floor in fit, and the nelghbors had crowd
ed into the room, filling it so fall that it re-
quired the utmost efforts of the police 10 keep
them from stepping on the woman ~
Itwas hard sight to behold. The woman
was only about 1S years of age, and had two
small children by her side 1t appears that
the man and wife had been drinking all day
and the husband had abused her. After a
while he became terribly enraged and threw
her down pair of stairs. He says that she
had been drinking during the day and that
about 5 o'clock she asked him for some money
and he gave her So. She took it and went out,
but soon returned badly intoxicated, and in
coming up stairs fell. The neighbors dispute
the story and say that he threw her down.
They were very indignent, and if the officers
had not arrived as they did the chances are
that he would have been roughly handled.
The hardest thing about the whole case was
that while young man, who happened in was
holding the woman some one stole fine watch
and chain from his person. This is without
doubt the meanest act on record.

q ST.. JoHNsBURY, VERMONT Last week the
Fairbanks Scale Company manufactured over
HOO scales. Since the opening of the year they
have run their factory on orders, and at the
present time they are far behind their orders
The business so far this year is in excess of any
expectation of the firm, being in advance of any
previous year. 1t is a fact worthy of note, and
highly flattering to American enterprise, that
the manufacturers of this company have gained
such worldwide reputation and sale. At the
Royal Agricultural show, held few weeks
since in Bedford, England, silver medal Of
fered "for articles in which the judges think
there is any especial merit" was awarded to
the Fairbanks hay scale, or, as it is called in
England, the Fairbanks weigh bridge for
carts and wagons" This. coming from con-
servative England, in appreciation of Ameri-
can manufactures, must be considered the
highest testimonial of the merit of these scales.

ployed in the spar yard cf bhn Bradford on
Commercial street, were engaged in launching

around gentleman standing near. The hook
in the end of the chain struck small boy
named Martin Conley in the face, tearing the
side of his face badly. The rope attached to
the chain struck Mr.. Bradford in tine ear and
threw him about ten feet. Saving slight
bruise on the ear he was uninjured. The gen.
tleman who was wrapped up in the chain also
escaped without injury. The boy was stunned,

signs of life He was taken TO his home in the

called. He will lose several teeth and his face
will bear hard looking scar. He was quite
comfortable last evening
