RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
TWO Persons Badly Hurt.


This afternoon the train on the
Central railroad run into a wagon at
the foot of Wapello strickland serious
ly injured the occupants, Mr.. Abra-
ham Young and his son, boy about
Ia years of age.
Mr.. Young had business at Mr..
Lammeis mill, and was sitting in his
wagon in front of the mill, when a
train came down on the 9. b. & @.
road, which seemed to make it nee
essary for him to head his horses to-
ward the city. The team started on a
jump, and got across the Valley track
just in time for the pilot to strike the
wagon behind the hub Of the fore
wheels, smashing the wagon to peices
and carrying the man and boy short
distance on the pilot and turning them
over into the ditch. The man is hurt
considerably about the hips and head
aud the boy is also severely hurt
about the head and shoulders.
They were taken into the mill and
a physician sent for. 1t is not sup
posed that their wounds are necessar
lily fatal and perhaps may not dis
able them for any length O
time. The Valley railroad
runs close to the mill, and in turning
between the tracks he could not see |
train on the road, coming from tn
west, and there being train on tn
other track he could not tell the diff
ference in sound. He was fortunat
in escaping as well as he did.-Dail

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.

Mr.. Irwin Combs, Of East Des
Moines, Attempts to Take His Own
Life.
Saturday night about eight o'clock,
Irwin N. Combs. man in East Des
Moines, made a rather novel attempt
to end his existence. Combs is q man
of family, and lives on Buchanan
street, between Thirteenth and Four
teenth streets. For some days past
he has been on q prolonged spree,
drinking heavily and continually. He
says that while drunk he was drugged,
and that this had the effect to make
him partially demented. Others say
that continued drinking has had the
effect to make him crazy. For some
time he has been rather worthless, do
ing scarcely anything at his trade,
| while his wife has been working all
the time to support the family, which
consists Of four children. She has
labored faithfully and well to pro-
vide for the wants of the little ones
while her husband has been lazily
idle and has been regularly on hand
to partake of the food which the in
dustry of his wife had provided.
lie has been more or less out of his
mind, but during the last week was
worse than usual. He imagined oil
sorts of things. Saturday night he
went out into the yard, and seeing
two mon coming up the street he
thought they were going to hang
him.
Thoroughly believing this, and
thinking to rob them of their victim
the crazy fellow seized Ratchet lay
ing handy, rushed out in the yard ant
/: commenced pounding himself will

, with all his force, striking the top o
his head eight times, and cutting tn
. skin to the bone. He was just in tn
!. act of raising the Ratchet to strik'

his wife caught his arm and prevent

: and the would-be suicide was take
Q into the house and cared for. TIL
d man has to be watched now, for
q left to himself he would immediatel
take his own life. The idea that some
: body is going to kill him seems to b
@ the uppermost idea in his disordere
mind, and consequently he desires t
kill himself to prevent others froI
II doing it.-Stdte Register.

We regret to learn that Samuel
Tate. the genial, widely known, and
popular clerk Of the Patterson House,
of Keokuk, committed suicide Wedn-
iesday, by shooting himself through
the temple with pistol. Sam Tate
was one of the most genial gentlemen
you ever met, always in q pleasant
mood with kind word and pleas
ant smile for every guest ofthc house,
many of whom will read this an
nonncement with sad regret. There
was no cause for the rash act as far
as was known when the train left
this morning. We arc informed,
however, that he has been drinking
to some excess lately, and b I'M
able to break of from the terrible
habit, it is supposed that he commit
ed the rash act while laboring under
momentary delirium, although il
seems that he made his toilet with
unusual care and before firing the
fatal shot locked tho door, placed his
room to rights, pulled tho trigger and
crossed the river.
Mr.. Tate was well known all over
the country, and his sad demise will
be sincerely regretted.
