That such roses are too good
To be kissed by every rude

RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
A Woman Killed by the Cars at Fall
mouth

A fatal accident occurred at the railroad
crossing near the Grand Trunk depot in Fall
mouth on Wednesday evening, about half-past
six o'clock. AS Miss Mary Ann Harris of
Cumberland was returning home from Port
land with horse and sleigh, alone, she at
tempted to cross the track in front of heavily
loaded freight train. When nearly across the
track the rear of the sleigh was struck by the
engine and the woman was thrown some FORTY
feet. The depot was closed and the station
agent had gone home for the night. AS soon
as the train could be stopped it was backed
back and the woman was found by the train
men lying on the platform of the depot. Her
right shoulder was badly crushed and her head
was terribly cut. She was removed to one of
the waiting rooms of the depot while yet alive,
though in an unconscious state, and she die
there about fifteen minutes later DIR. Ingalls,
was called, but the woman was dead before he
arrived. The sleigh was broken to fragments,
but the horse escaped without serious injury
The woman was about AZ years of age and was
very deaf. She was the only child of an aged
father and invalid mother. She had been in
town to market and was returning late as sh e
had frequently done before. 1t is claimed that
the usual signals were given by the train and
it would seem there was ample opportunity to
avoid the accident as the track is in sight for
some distance before reaching the depot.
Coroner Gould went out yesterday and held
an inquest

Singular COincidence

AS one of the partners of firm on CONNER
cial street was reading in the PRESS yesterday
morning, about the Hebron affair, where the
Governor and Council changed the name of
Henry G. Walker to Henry G. Walker, by a
little sleight of hand process known only to
themselves-the other partner, who was OPEN
ing the morning mail, came to check pay
able to the order of H. G.. Plummer, and en-
dorsed HI. G. Plummer. The question arose
as to what should be done with it. The part
ner who was reading the Hebron case, quietly
suggested sending the check to Councillor G.
H. Chase to have the G altered into a G, la
Henry G. Walker. This suggestion was readi-
ly seconded and measures taken to have the
document corrected. We have not heard
whether Mr.. Councillor Chase altered the
check, referred the matter to Ex-Governor
Garcelon or perhaps concluded that his right to
alter names ceased with his official duties as
Fusion councillor and "capt'n" of the Demo-
cratic party.

A waiter on one of the Boston boats Tuesday
found in one of the state rooms pocket book
containing $3.50. He deposited it with the
clerk and the next day the owner came and
got it. Being a generous individual he re-
warded the waiter with so. The same waiter
found a pocket book containing $500 and
papers of the value of several thousand dollars
sometime ago, and returned them, to the
owner. The latter was so overioyed at getting
them that he grew reckless and presented the
waiter with 80 cents.

Freese who recently left the fortune at Dwight,
ILL.,, was Edward LIE Foret Freese who married
Miss Davis of Deering in 1860. They resid-
ed at Cape. Elizabeth and Freese served in the
regular army through the war. After the war
he failed to support his family and his wife
got divorce. Freese cleared out and, it is re-
ported, went West and prospered. His family
returned to London. This is all surmise. The
original story says Freese narrated the facts
published, that is he revealed to these rela-
tives at or near Portland, Me-, all about the
treasure. Possibly the so-called relatives may
have been persons who tended the man in his
last Illness The Freese mentioned above had
son by his Deering wife, who is with his
mother in California
