Catoctin clarion. [volume] (Mechanicstown, Md.) 1871-1940, 1876-11-02

The train on the pittsburg, Cincin-
natl and St. Louis railroad that ar
rived in this city at 730 o'clock this
morning had on board one passenger
of whose presence the conductor nor
any one elso was aware until the train
arrived at the depot at the corner of
Clinton and Carroll streets. There a
bundle was noticed lying on top of
the sleeping car, which came through
from Louisville. An examination of
the bundle revealed the fact that it
was the dead body Of man. None
Of the train men were aware of its
presence there, nor can they form
any idea as to how or where he got
on the car. It is supposed that he
climbed up there for the purpose of
stealing a ride to Chicago, and was
struck and killed by one Of the bridg-
es through which the train passed.
The man WAS about twenty-six years
old, five feet eight inches high, has
dark hair and smooth face, and is
dressed in heavy boots, two pair Of
brown pants, gray vest and blue coat.
Patrolman Dettinger took the body to
the morgue to await coroners in
quest. There was nothing found on
the body by which he could be identi-
fed. 1t may be that the dead body
was put on the car.

The home of the Queen at Windsor
has again been visited by lunatic.
This time the intruder came from the
sister isle, having voyaged from Dub
lin for the purpose of gaining an in.
terview with the Prince Of Wales.
The visit was CT course, unsuccess-
full, the household police on duty at
tie palace being now quite accus-
toned to such applications. The
visitor accordingly left Windsor by
an early Great Western train on his
return to Dublin.

Another well-planned fraud has
met with sudden failure. The slab
of sandstone containing human foot
print and two bird tracks, which was
recently unearthed at North Canton,
Conn, has been submitted to Prof
Marsh, of Yale College. He says
that the slab is an artificial stone, in
which the imp, ession was made while
it was soft. 1t was fashioned with
great skill, and has apparently been
buried for some time, so as to have an
ancient look. It is said that the own.
err has taken portion Of the stone tc
Chicago for sale there.

A few days since, AS an excursion
train Of eighteen heavily loaded cars
on the Vermont division Of the
Portland and Ogden,burg railroad
had commenced the descent Of heavy
grade between st. Johnsbury and
Connecticut river, the engineer de-
serted three cattle upon the track
lust in advance Of him. 10 drive or
brighten them from the track, or stop
the train, was impossible. Instantly
he decided upon his course. He sent
his fireman to disconnect his engine
and tender from the train, whistled
down brakes" and with full steam
on plunged forward alone, and with
the fearful impetus thus gained threw
the cattle from the track. lie then
quietly allowed the train to overtake
him again, connected it, and contln-
ucd on, bis passengers knowing moth.
ing of the fearful danger they escaped
by his bravery, his quick wit, and
his fidelity to duty.

A special dispatch to the Globe
Democrat, dated Little Rock, October
27, says: "Three Methodist miris-
ters while riding circuit in Pope coun-
ty, Arkansas, were shot from the
brush yesterday morning by two lille
it dstillera named Hughes and Hale.
1t is believed they were mistaken for
revenue officers coming to arrest them,
as warrants are now out for the ar
rest of Hughes and Hale for Illicit
distillng. One of the ministers was
mortally wounded, and died two
hours after being shot; the other two
are severely if not mortally wounded.
There are large number of illicit
distillers in that part Of the state, six
of whom have been convicted this
week in the United states Circuit
Court for this district"

TROUBLE WITH THE HARBoR CHARGES
A great deal OF complaint has begun To be
made by parties interested in the coal ira lie,
OF the charges Of harborage, made against
vessels trading TO this port, by the newly
elected harbor master. II seems that this
Office has lately been uffered to go unnoticed,
ana the corporation attorney has given his
opinion in writing TO the American Coal
Ce. agent here, unqualidedly to the effect
mat The Office In question must be filled by
the city council. Mr.. Elliott, who received
the popular vote for the position at the re-
cent election, has proceeded To exercise the
duties by requiring the tax specified. The
Georgetown IL this tax is enforced, and the
agent OF one of the most fourIshing coal
companies here says that his com pauy will
remove to Georgetown. III the law is to have
this effect 1t had better be allowed to remain
dead letter, and we hope the city council
Will attend to the CAGE. The captain of the
c. A. Coulomb was arrested to-day for re-
fnsing TO pay the tax: and taken before Jus
tice Nails, who decided that Mr.. Elliott is
not harbor master, and dismissed the case at
his cost-tSenttna, 5,h:

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.-The residence
OF Mr.. Daniel w. Lewis, near the reservoir,
was struck by lightning during the storm
last night. The lightning first struck the
chimney, and glanclng off made several
holes in the roof, passing down and destroy
ing several parlor ornaments and pieces of
furniture. Fortunately none OF the Inmates
of the house were injured.
FIRE DOWN THE RIvER.-The lightning
struck on the farm of Mr.. s. I. Chandler in
NaDjemoy, Md, few days since, and de-
strOyed seven new buildings, 125 barrels of
corn, and 10 or Is tons OF hay, besides other
farm produce, utensils, harness, &c. The
loss will probably reach between 81 900 and
$1,000, on which there is no insurance, SO far

CURED on that march, although the majority
OF the men were wearing the same hats and
