Notwithstanding the unyielding stand
taken by the Centennial Committee
against permitting the Exposition
grounds to be open to the public on Sum
day, it is estimated that between four
thousand and five thousand visitors
were present on the grounds and in the
buildings last Sunday, passing the gates
on special passes. All buildings save
the United States Government were
opened to the inspection of the favored
visitors. The attendance at the Gen.
tennial yesterday was large. All trains
and street-oars bound for the grounds
in the early part of the day were crowd
ed with passengers. The cash admls-
sions up to O'Clock yesterday were
STA, 1888. The prospects for the success
of a permanent exhibition i'll the main
building are considered flattering.

TRENTON, N. j., October 31.-The fol-
lowing particulars OF the terrible acci-
dent on the Delaware, Lackawanna &
western Railroad, at Gouldsboro ugh
station, Pa, have been receivedt ro IN a
passenger on the ill-fated train who was
in the car where most of the killed and
injured received their wounds.
When within mile and half Of
Gouldsborough the train stopped at a
signal station, he thinks, for water, and
when moving on again two Of the rear
cars became detached through the COUP
lings breaking. The train backed to
pick up the cars, which were soon re-
coupled and the train started again,
when the couplings gave way second
time. While backing for the cars Sec
ond time q coal train struck the uncou-
pied cars and drove them into the back
ing train, setting fire TO the rear car and
driving the third car nearly through the
fourth, where most Of those killed and
wounded were.
Mr.. Morgan, from whom these particu-
lars were obtained, assisted in taking
out the dead bodies and from seventeen
to twenty wounded passengers. Some Of
them can not, he says, possibly live
many hours. The only name Mr.. Nor
gan dan give among the killed is Mr..
Pierce, OF Hamilton. The accident oc-
CURED about O'clock last night.
Mr.. Morgan, on arriving at Trenton
this morning, was covered with blood,
but fortunately received but slight
bruises himself. Que Of the lady friends
with him had comb on the back OF her
head smashed into fifty pieces, but re-
ceived no other injury. One of the per-
sons killed suffered decapitation. His
head was found several yards from his
body. Mr.. Morgan describes the scene
as most horrifying. None of the passen-
gers here can give the names of any
teen heavily loaded cars on the train,
being drawn over the mountains by four
locomotives.

Kidnapping "a RObber.

The post Office at Oberville, q
small western town in the United
States, was a very important place.
The worthy postmaster kept n
country store, where he dispensed
goods of every description.
The district was comparatively
new, and formed one of those prai-
rie villages that spring into exist
ence miles away from other towns
and are a sort of nucleus CT tradin;
post for large extent of country.
Saturday was the principal trading
day and Mr.. Harmon, tho pest
master, and his assistants were al
ways overwhelmed with business
on that day.
But on the particular Saturday
afternoon of which we wish to speak,
trade had slackened earlier than
usual, and the proprietor and his
men were enjoying breathing time,
and chatting with several rough
looking fellows, who had gathered
about the stove, many of them being
strangers, for stranger attracted
but little notice in that community
of new comers.
"Here comes Charley Gilbert, the
very man / want to see !" remarked
Harmon, as q horseman dashed up
to the store and dismounted.
He was a tall, broad-shouldred
young Hercules and the large bay
horse he rode, looked well adopted
to carrying such weight and ex-
hibited due equin pride in serving
his young master. Both horse and
rider were well-known and respect
ed throughout the settlement
Leaving his well-trained animal un-
hitched, Gilbert entered the store.
"You are just the person I want
ed to see, Charley y said Mr.. Har-
mon. tN
"Singular," said Gilbert. 81
should think you would rather not
see me, as you know the object Of
my call. people are not generally
so welcome when they come for
money.
"well, I am an exception in this
instance, for l am anxious to get
rid Of the amount owe you. Fact
is, there have been burglars about
and they tried 70 break into my
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1876-04-26

So sudden was his movements, that
ere the rest of the group could
comprehend the scene, he was clear
Of the store, and as Gilbert reach
ed the door, he saw the robber
spring into the saddle on Hero's
back, and dash away.
Pursuit was not to be thought Of /;
but Gilbert placed his fingers to
his mouth, and gave shrill whistle !;
hearing which, old Hero, despite
the urging of his rider wheeled
suddenly, and at the same wild
gallop, started back to his master.
Seeing this, Curly Bill attempted
to throw himself from the saddle |;
but in so doing, his foot caught in
the stirrup, and be was dragged
helplessly over the hard road. For
tunately for the poor victim of this
mishap, the distance was not great,
or the result might have been far
more serious.
How often is it that the most
trifing accident contributes to the
ends of justice Williams may sue
cessfully carry on their work for
years, and in their fancied securi-
ty forget the fate that must eventu-
ally overtake them--a slip, an acci-
dent, and the law claims her own.
Gilbert fastened to secure his
horse, and the insensible form of
Curly Bill was again carried into
the store, where an examination
revealed broken head, and a frac-
tured leg, which would detain
their prisoner as effectually as
shackels and chains.
In a few days the Sheriff came
up from st. Joseph, and took charge
of the MANNED man, and through
his confession, many of his gang of
desperadoes were taken or killed,
and the country freed of their pres
ence.
Charley Gilbert received his well
earned reward, and the money en-
abled him to complete his house
handsomely and stock the farm,
over which Sarah Gilbert presides
as mistress.
