"A Loretto correspondent calls our atten-
tion tn an error in the official returns pub
ilShed IN our last issue, well as in all other
papers of the county, whereby the vote for
Hon. John Reilly is reduced from AZ to4l i'm
that borough. At his request we have ex-
ainined the tally paper and returns from
said district fled in the Prothouotary's Of
nee and find that the fault is not with the
election board of that place the documents
referred 10 showing that Mr. Reilly received
IL votes and Mr. Campbell II votes. How
the mistake came to be made in the off, ial
returns published we cannot saw, but we sin
cerely regret thar the six votes unin'ention-
ally omurd do not suffice to make Mr.
Reilly's calling and election sure.

freight and coal train engines on the Tyrone

urday afternoon last. Crowthers is the
worst hurt, having been caught on one of
the engines and held while the escaping
steam from mashed boiler ervelnped his

among stuInps and logs was sc verely injured
about the head, shoulders and back, as well
as internally, No one on the coal train was
hurt in the least. All are doing we'll, and
no fears are entertained for their recovery.
