A Cool RaIlroader.

The Altoona Tribune of recent date
tells the following story of the heroic act
of fireman:
The fireman on engine No. sl7, which
is Modoc and runs on the Pittsburgh
division, has proved himself hero and
worthy of the place he holds. Before
daylight one morning last week he
performed a deed which old railroad
men say was one of the bravest ever
executed on the mountain. The train
was coming near Altoona from Gallit-
zin, and when near the latter station
rear end of the train parted, leaving the
conductor and all the brakemen but one
on it. The break was not noticed on
the engine and the train ran on through
the tunnel. While still in there twenty
three cars broke from the rear end of
what was left and came spinning along
without brakeman on them. The

Severe Thunder Storms.

WILKEsDARRE, Pa, August Pa
furious storm with thunder and light
ming prevailed here to-day. Several
building were struck by lightning, but
no great damage was done. General OIL
iver's powder magazine, at Laural Run,
was struck and one thousand pounds of
powder exploded, partially destroying
the mixing room. The flood caused
considerable loss in the city.
BRIDeEPoRT, Conn, August 25. The
most terrific thunder shower that has
visited this vicinity in years passed over
this city this afternoon. The lightning
struck the schooner Mabel, of Palais,
Maine, shattering her top and fore
masts and instantly killing Charles
Shoyber the Stewart. The lightning al
so struck number of places about the
city, including st. Augustine Roman
Catholic Church spire, causing dam
age to the amount of several hundred

EVERY VOTER should ee that he is
registered. 1t will save trouble and
may save vote. The Constitution pro-
vides that those not registered may be
permitted to vote upon making due
proof by some citizen of the reason why
they were not registered, and that they
would be entitled to vote in case they
were registered. Any one who is chal-
lenged may be called upon to make
proof of his right to vote, but it is often
attended with trouble and delay, and
people ought not to make the objections
unless they have reason to suppose that
the person is trying tovote contrary to
the law.
Persons attempting to vote who are
not qualified are guilty of felony. This
may not be generally known to the peo-
pie. The act of Assembly provides that
such persons upon conviction, may be
fined not exceeding $500 and imprison-
ment not less than two nor more than
five years.
Offering or accepting any reward of
any kind for voting for candidate, is a
misdemeanor and punishable by fine
and imprisonment. So, in like manner,
is those of any threat to effect any
mans vote. Betting or offering to bet
on the result of the election is also a
misdemeanor for which man may be
imprisoned. Iti is highly demoralizing
in its influence and severely condemned
by the laws of our State.--Judgc Pear
son.

brakeman on the front section, when
they slackened up, saw that collision
on the heavy down grade was inevitable,
and he and the engineer both jumped to
save themselves. Then Il was that the
true qualities of the fireman were dis
played. He sprang to the vacant seat,
opened the throttle and started down
the mountain. In amoment the collision
came, but Its force was weakened so that
nothing was broken. He was the only
man on a train of thirty-three cars
running rapidly down the grade. 1t
took but a short time to reverse the
engine and apply the brake. Then back
on the cars he climbed and put on the
brakes 1t was three. mile run before
he succeeded in getting them stopped,
but by his nerve he saved tremendous
freight wreck, as had the cars got start
they would have every one landed In

sooner.

Heather at Home.

There is no use spending money to
convert foreign heather while such
cases as the following are found in the
city of Philadelphia. The North A@,er-
ieaa of that city says: "a horrible ease
of neglect and dissipation was called to
the attention of the police Tuesday
morning. Upon proceeding to house
i'm the rear of 1l19 st. John street, a
small child was found lying upon a
table dead, and an inquiry developed the
fact that it had expired on Sunday. The
mother, entirely obliyious to the sur
roundings, was stretched in a drunken
.stupor upon the floor, while in another
room lay another child suffering the
fatal agonies of diphtheria. In the front
house it was learned that four other
children were ailing with the same
disease, and that in the adjOining one a
baby was dead from it also. The quar-
ter is one of great squalor and poverty,
the people inhabiting it being addicted
to drunkenness and to the practice of
cruelty and neglect toward their chill
dren."

that the doctor then dressed her and placed

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, ID. u, August %, 1880.
General Albert s. Myers death was ofIlci-
ally announced yesterday by the Secretary of
war. The General was very popular here,
and he had become so widely known through
out the country that his death will excite
attention. If entitled to the credit for most of
the progress of the "Weather Bureau" as
think he was, the loss was serious one. To
dwellers upon land and sea, and lake, his
Bureau was of great and growing benefit. An
effort has been made to show that what is
really of Importance to the Bureau was sug-
gested and explained by another, and that
General Myer appropriated instead of origin
ating. The authorities here have always given
the credit to General Myer, and probably with
reason. The contest for honors will be removed
however. The deceased officers rank was that
of Brigadier General, and the place will prob
ably be filed from among army officers holding
as high rank as Colonel. There seemed to
be no foundation for the report that sCaptain
Howgate would be selected.
Hon. Horace Maynard, appointed Post Mas
ter General will be commissioned to-day and
will assume charge of the Department. It is
understood that the new official will make few,
If any changes in the personnel of the Depart
ment. He will be absent large portion of
the time until November, and will hardly have
opportunity to learn the merits of his subordi-
mates. Judge Key leaves at once for Ten
nessee.
There are afoat here now two rumors of
interest concerning army officers. One is that
an order has been prepared, relieving General
Bchofeld from command at West Point, but
that II will not be issued until after the No
vember election. The other is to the effect
that General o. o. Howard has asked to be
placed on the retired list. II is known that
General Howard seriously considered this step
some time ago, and the report now current,
and which seems to have authority, indicates
that he has finally decided on that course.
The service could not lose more gallant
officer.
Washington gathers into her permanent
population annually, large number of retir-
ing Government officials and Congressman.
General Halbert e. Paine, late Commissioner
of Patents, and who, by the way, was formerly
law partner of Secretary schurz, will remain
permanently here and devote himself to legal
business, including cases before the Patent
Office.
Senator Conkling in letter to a gentlemen
in this city, says that he is Fastening the set
tlement of his private business SO that he may
engage in the campaign unembarrassed until
the day of election in November. He says
that he does not believe the Democracy of New
York State will be divided in the contest in
that State, and therefore the Republicans will
have to put forth their best efforts to be assured
of success.
