A Broken Draw,

There was serious Interruption to travel
on the Eastern Railroad yesterday morning,
owing to an accident which befell the draw in
the bridge over the Mystic river between Som
erville and Everett. The draw was opened
at an early hour in order to allow q steam ves-
sci to pass up the river. Just as the beams Of
which the draw is constructed were swung
clear Of the opening the iron stays supporting
them gave way, and the free end Of the draw
fell upon the pier. It was fortunate that the
break did not occur just as the free end Of the
draw left its supports in the bridge proper, as
in that case it would have fallen into the
opening and might have caused a more serious
breakage. The cause Of the accident was the
rusting away Of the iron whore the stays we're
connected at the free end OF the draw. The
passengers on the inward trains crossed the
opening in the bridge by means of temporary
foot bridge and were brought to the city on
trains sent out for them. The outward trains
were held back, owing to the large amount Of
baggage to be sent, until repairs were COM
pleted, soon after noon. The trains arrived

Herring Gut" and looked at the ''Monu-

fortunate predecessors have been washed
away. Three "Sugar Leaves, which no boy
has ev er tried to steal, were pointed OUT and
a villa sc SO rocky that dirt has to be brought
in order that the hens can scratch.
l saw the place where that noble end his
toric red man was fishing who pointed out the
Kennebec river to Popham and his crew with

anybody doubts the story let them look at the
island, whose name Seguin, is almost lie rep

I almost wished for an alarm of fire so as 10
see it extinguished before fairly begun. For
the officers thoughtfully get up little surprise
parties once or twice q week for the enjoy
ment of the crew. A few days ago they
sprung the FIRE alarm when the mon were
lounging about thinking of everything else in
the world but fire. In ten seconds three
streams of water were playug-and She men
didn't hurry either.
Pc rhaps the officers Of the ship did no moro
than their duty towards the education OF an
ignorant land-lubbber, but they will, I hope,
pardon me for saying that was never under
more agreeable tutors and governors, or I
the guest of more, hospitable hosts.

shifting panorama, yet a fsm and steady joy.
