JUDGE TAFT DECLINES.

He will Send a Letter TO that Effect
to the Executive Committee This
Evening.
Hon. Alphonso Taft, who was nominated
for Judge of the Superior Court by the Re-
publican Convention yesterday, this morn
ing declined to run for that position.
He stated to one of our reporters that he
was sorry that the party had nominated
him, as he had expressed his unwillingness
to run, and that he had done everything in
his power to avoid nomination. He was
sorry, but the thing was done, and his
business interest would not allow him to
accept.
Judge Taft had received congratulations
on his nomination from large number of
business firms, who hoped that he would
make the race. The above determination
was not arrived at until shortly before
noon to-day.
He has as yet not drawn up his letter of
resignation, but the Executive Committee
will be notified this evening.

SERIOUS ACCIDEST.-Abou; 6 clock
yesterday evening young mon named
George Pierce. who Las for s-tae time
past been employed by ;he railroad
company. met with most horrible &C
cident. The unfortunate man was en-
ployec in dumping the loaded coal cars
into the shutes at the top Of the incline,
and then on the train Of empty cars
and brake them down the incline. At
the time the accident happened he was
endeavoring to jump on car as the
train was ascending the steep grade
leading TO the bunkers bat IN doing so
he missed his footing and fell beneath
the car, and the wheels passed over his
left leg, cutting a cash about foot in
length. Had not the engineer, Frank
Byrd, seen him fall, and quickly re
versed his engine. the unfortunate man
would have had his leg chopped off in
an instant As it is, the wound is a
most fearful one, and extends from near
the inner side of the knee-cap diago-
nally across the calf of the leg, laying
the flesh entirely open. and presenting
IL most sickening spectacle. As soon a.
possible the injured man was picked up
ana carried to his lodgings. DIR. Baker
was called soon after, and dressed the
wound. No bones were broken, and it
is probable that with proper care be
will speedily recover.
