EIGHrY-FIVE years ago the Lcglsla-

hibiting profanity. Thousands upon
thousands of men since that time have
sworn countless millions of oaths, in all
manner of public places, without being
reminded OF that statute, and with no
consciousness of its existence. Last Sat
urday, however, an unsuspecting Allie
ghany policeman, aggravated by the an
noyances of his Office, relieved himself by
some weak efforts at profanity, and was
arrested. The venerable old statute OF
the last century was spread open before
his astonished vision, and outraged JUS

In spite Of the weather, which Of late has

lite in Seneca The glorious Fourth was
celebrated with due pomp, ceremony and fes-
tivity, and is now a thing of the past. Some
pretty, young girls may long remember it, for
certain SWANS on that day were looking their
best and were probably preparing some pretty
speeches for the evening. Having "been
there" myself, | can guess the nature of said
speeches can remember when it took me
a full hour to tie any cravat IN killing

Fatal Accident.

distressing fatal accident occurred at Mendo-
Ia last week Wednesday afternoon, in which a
Young lad named Frederic Coltrin was run over
by an engine on the c., b. q Q. L. r., and his
older brother had his foot badly injured From
the Reporter we abstract the following particulars
of the accident: at seems that Mr.. l. B. Col
trim and his two sons, Charley and Frederic, aged
respectively thirteen and seven years, were on
their way home from the brewery, where they
had been with team for a load of malt and
when near the crossing Of the G. b. q. K. T.,
on Sixth street, their horses became unmanagca-
bic and ran directly ia front of engine No. 1866,
which had lust cut loose from train No. for the
purpose Of going to the round house 10 take wa
ter, and which started at speed OF not less than
eight miles an hour. Mr.. Coltrn managed 10
turn his team south between the tracks, bat be-
fore he could succeed in crossing the engine
struck the wagon, turning it upside down, aud
landing its occupants on the rails, Freddie being
thrown directly in front OF the drive wheels, and
instantly killed; the back portion Of his skull be
Ing completely crushed in. The father was
dragged a short distance by the team, he being
entanglcd in the lines, and escaped with Few
bruises. Charley Coltrn, the Oldest hoy, had q
few cuts on his right foot, and some bruises on
his body" \ co-oncr's inques: was held upon
the remains Of Frederic, the jury returning ycr-
dict i'm accordance with the facts above stated,
and attaching the blame TO the railroad company
for not having a fagman at the crossing and the
engineer for not using more caution. Many 81
the citizens, however, say that the engineer is
not TO blame, as the team was running away Al
the time, and from the location it was impossible
for the engineer TO see them till he WAS on them.
