FATAL AccrpEST.-A fatal accident oc-
Cured yesterday morning at the shaft of
the old Mendha mine. Highland, which
resulted in the death OF John A. Dowell,
an old business man and much res
pected citizen of Phoebe. Mr. Dowell,
together with some others, have been
engaged in mining at Highland at the
Mendha mine, and yesterday morning
wanting fuse he descended the shaft of
the mine to the depth oftwenty-five feet,
at which place there has been station
made, from which place drift was be-
ing run, and stepping from the station
to the ladder TO descend further, the top
portion of the ladder sprang out striking
against the hanging wall, causing hi m TO
lose what slight hold he had, and pre-
cipitatiug the unfortunate man to the
bottom of the shaft, distance of sixty
feet, killing him instantly. When his
body was brought to the surface, it was
found that one of his legs was broken in
three places, his skull broken and the
back portion of his skull separated from
the other portion of the bead. Word was
Immediately sent to Phoebe of the acct
dent, and his son, L. J. Dowell, accom-
panied by some others, proceeded i'm
mediately to the scene of the
accident They in company with
others, brought the body in in a
wagon, conveying it to The deceased S
late residence on Cedar street.
We read in an exchange few days
ago, as a sort of wonderful item the re-
presentation of seven different national
tiles in Philadelphia street-car. Now
there is no Centennial celebration going
on here but we can beat that. In a
place of public resort last evening, we
saw Greek, Sclavonian, an Italian, a
Spaniard, a German, an Irishman, a
| Pole and an American. Outside was
passing Chinamen, free American of
| African descent and an Aboriginal.
Here we have eleven different national
tiles and three distinct races. Our pop
uation is cosmopolitan, but wo put on
no style about it.

various exploits, remarking TO Sheriff
Fife that. at one time, he stopped the
stage near Phoebe, got several hundred
dollars from the treasure box and was

Of the robbery. But the most important
disclosure made by Mayfeld TO MIR. Fife

the Jail to see him, but at his earnest So

first remark that he made on reaching

stay there. "
We think Mr.. John Williams alias
Mayfield, is stretching his imagination a
little in the above. Just how that fire
started will perhaps never be known, but
it has generally been laid to the carless
ness of cook in the restaurant where
the fire was first discovered. There ar,

AN EDITORS OPINION OF THE CONVENTION
ORATORS. were few good speeches
made at the State Conycntion-notably those
of Marye, John Goodc, Il. j. Barbour,
Kelley, and a Mr.. Sparks, OF Illinois, pre-
sent as visitor. Mr.. Chamberlayne, of the
State, made some capital points. And there
were many horrible speeches made, hr. q.
c. Walker being ,fncite princeps, promi-
nently conspicuous in this department. A
gentleman from Manchester nominated Gen.
cral Fitz. Lee rs clcctor at large, enforcing
his election by rcmarking that he was Q son
OF General Robert e., and had lost an
arm in the war. 1t seemed that every
body else in the Convention, except
the gentleman from Manchester. knew
General Fits genealogy. and when he
arose with two stout arms and declined the
honor, there was slight laughter at the cX-
pense of the delegate from Manchester.
Colonel Holiday, one Of the electors at
large, when called upon for a speech, came
upon the platform and responded, and i'll
the course OF his remarks quoted at length
"Syhat constitutes State" Supposing
that most OF our readers have heard those
lines. we will he excused for not repro.
