switch aforesaid caused it to leave the track

it impossible to stop At the place where the
Catawissa road crosses the l.. 4 b. track the
engine was prccipiated down the cmbank-
ment and lodged diagonally across the
L. Il b track, ellcctually stopping all travel
The restle work caught fire and for a time it

explosion. 4 force of men at once went TO
work to raise the engine, but it was not until
Tuesday morning twenty-four hours after the
accident, that the engine was lifted upon the
track. 1t was then taken to the switch, trans
ferrcd to the Catawissa road and then over
the bridge to the shops ut Catawssa, The
damage done to the engine was not great, All

any enemies while on the bench, they will

the Court for sentence.

Serious Accident.

At about six o'clock Monday evening, Mr..
John c. Harms who lives up Raven Creek in
Benton township, started from Blooms
burg driving Il pair of horses attached to II
loaded wagon. 1t was quite dark and Mr..
Karns was unable to see the road. When
near the house of William Shocmaker,a II short
distance above town on the Light Street
road the wagon ran off the bank on the left
hand side of the road and was prcciptated
into gully some six feet deep. The wagon
body was thrown up against the fence and
Mr.. Karns was hurled from his seat to the
ground. His cries brought assistance when
it was found that his left leg was broken. He
was taken to Mr.. Shocmaker's house and
DIR. Gardner was sent for and set the broken
bone. At u late hour he was taken to his
home by ncighbor who had Il team in ad-
vance. The place of the accident is extremely
dangerous and should be fixed without delay.
Considering the depth of the hole in which
the wagon fell, it is Il wonder that the acci-
dent was not more serious. There is turn
in the road at this gully which adds to the
danger, and some provision should be made
at once to protect those who drive over the
road. Mr.. Karns will he laid up for some
weeks and will suffer much pain from his
injuries
