john HoppenSteel, Young man en-
ployed as cOle-drawer at Bennington
Furnace, Blair county. few miles east of
HaUltZh, having few minutes to spare
from his labOrS, lay down on the SHADY side
OF q short train of coke cars standing on a
side track Tuesday afternoon. and with his
mead resting on one Of the rails soon fell
asleep. While in that position one of the
tralnmen, who had orders to drop several of
the ears short distance down the track
lOoSened the brakes without being aware of
Hoppensteels position and. horrible to re-
relate, the cars ran over the unfortunate
mans neck, completely ScverinG the head
from the body. HOppenStecl was about p
years old, and is said to have frequently
riskcd his life in 4 similar manner
American Independence is to-day 1903
years old This i not so great an age aS that
attained by McthuSelah. but it will scarce eS-

OF being classified in that category, the FREE

The CaTOlltOwn Ne1CS is entirely too

secures from that source. Instead of credit
Ing us with the receipt of from 81 200 to ST.,
500 per wear for county work. it should
have added one or two additional cypherS to
the sum total, as Of course nobody ever
thinks of examining the published statement
of the receipts and expenditures of the
county and would just "a soon believe a

Our worthy friend and patron, Mr.
Joseph Carney. Of Altoona. brother Of Mr.
VIM Carney Of Munster township. came
very near passing in his chips" on Friday
evening last, in consequence of miStaEing
coup of cold DiZcu, 50 to speak, for dose
Of DhVSic. The facts are that MIR. Carney
felt the necessity Of doing something for his
inner man. and going to the cellar got his
hands on bottle containing strong SOlu-
tiOn of washing soda, lime, etc, from which
he took "a long pull a strong pull, and n
null altogether" the impression prevailing
i'm his mind at the time being that he was
swallowing dose of EPSON salts. Judge
Of his horror then. when he discovered his
mistake and felt an intense burning ScnSa-
ton i'm his stomach. fastening up stairs as
speedily as possible. he drank quantity of
sweet milk and then repaired without delay
to DR.. ChriStv'S Office. where the Tribune
AYERS ne swallowed by actual count not less
than fifteen goblets full of a powerful emetic,
which had the effect Of relieving his stomach
and no doubt saving his life.
"A correspondent from Allegheny town
shin writes us. under date Of the %Oth that
a few.davS prior, Mrs. John Buck, of Carroll
town. and her mother, an aged lady Of said
township. while returning hOmeward on the
night train from visit to Altoona, met
with an adventure at and near Bradley :
station. f. Il C. II. r., which was anything
but pIeaSurable. The two got off the train
at BradIev's with the intention Of going to
LOrcttO hut instead of following the prODer
road their footsteps tended in the direction
pected to meet them at the station, but failed
to make the proper connection. They kept
on and on. and finally reached house the
inmates Of which had gone to bed. Our
CORRESPONDENT concludes "The two ladies,
finding themselves aStTav, asked to be kept
till next morning. for which favor they would
have been satisfied to pay whatever Would

could not Stav. nor would the man of the
house show them the direction to Glass.
