On last Thursday the mail train did
not arrive until after night, and we
heard various reports about the cause
of the delay
The following, from the Hamden
Enterprise, gives the facts:
DEATH ON THE RAIL.
Again it has become our sad and
painful duty to chronicle one of those
fatal railroad accidents which so often
happen and which no earthly power
can avert. Last Thursday noon as
train number tbity-one east-bound
freight, engine No. 81, Ferdinand
Eichenlaub, Of Chlllicothe, engineer,
reached Summit Switch, two mile
west Of Hamden, the engineer saw a
large COW ahead on the track. He
tried to stop the engine before it struck
the COW but being down a grade and
the engine under full headway he
could not do so. At the crossing this
side of the switch the cow got into
the cattle guard when the engine
caught her. The engine having on
one of what is known as the short
pilots" the COW instead of being
knocked off was rolled under the en-
gine. The tender was thrown from
the track and the engineer and fire.
man both jumped; the latter jumping
from the engine on the left sustained
no injuries further than some severe
bruises, but the engineer, in jumping
from the right side Of the engine was
caught under some of the cars, several
OF which were then off the track, and
literally ground into atoms, there be-
ing no portion of his body left in a
whole condition except the head, the
balance being strewn along the track.
The cars piled on top of one another,
making one confused mass of timbers
and broken rods.
The conductor came to Hamden and
reported the accident and an engine
was sent out to help clear away the
wreck. The wrecking train was also
soon on the ground with a force of
men, and by seven o'clock the track
was cleared so that trains could pass.
Five cars and an engine, in all, wreck
ed. Two Of the cars contained wheat.
Eichenlaub leaves wife and three
small children, the youngest being
about two weeks old. His remains
were taken to Chillicothe in the even
ing. He was man well liked by all
who knew him.
1t has been but few weeks since
fireman was killed on the west end
and the engineer SO badly hurt that
for long time his life was despaired
OF, and all because of the "short pilots"
which are used on some of the engines,
and which, when they strike stock of
any kind, will never knock it from the
track, but instead, roll it under the
engine, thus endangering the lives of
those having charge of it.

Naughty TImi

Sheriff Cherrington took little trip up into Guern-
sey County, last week. Tim Thompson had taken a
little trip up that way some time previous. Tim is
accused OF toying with the affections of a certain
young lady hereabouts, named Alloway, Hence these
two trips to Guernsey County.
A man never knows when he is safe, and while Tim
lay in the early hours of the morning dreaming of
the fair Aoway, and attempting to fight off the little
demons that attacking his conscience with
sharp sticks of these little faries suddenly trans
formed itself the genial but firm Sheriff of Jack
son County, and Tim was unceremoniously yanked
All-o'-way back to Jackson. Now Tim and Ellen are
married-just what they ought to have been in the
first place.

pay us one dollar per year, if we would
continue it. That was several months
ago, but no dollar has come, and the pa
per is discontinued

On Tuesday of last week Adam W.

On Tuesday of last week Adam W.
Long was fifty years of age, and he had
family party at his house. His mother
are seven brothers and two sisters-all
living, and all at the party, with their
children, making As persons. Adam is
the oldest of the family. The other
brothers are William, George, Isaac,
Stephen, Lewis and Taylor. One of the
sisters is the wife of Andew Carrick, of
Hooking county, and the other is the wife
of Thomas Rogers, of Jackson.
The dinner at Mr.. Longs was one of
the best ever set in Jackson, and the
friends and relatives made Mr.. Long and
his family valuable presents. Among
the presents was beautiful gold pen and
pencil, presented by Josiah Caldwell and
sons, who are, and long have been, in the
employ of Mr.. Long at his marble shop.
We also learn that Price Brothers made
valuable presents.
In the year 1868 Adam w. Long was
elected by the Republicans of Jackson
county Treasurer of the county, and he
was reelected in 1865. The affairs of the
Office were ably and honestly conducted
by him. After his time was out he went
into business, and has been in active
business ever since, at this time giving
all his attention to his marble shop. He
has been pleasant neighbor, and use
full citizen. For many years he has been
Superintendent of the M. E. Sabbath
School in this place. A few years ago he
received licence to preach, and he preach
es occasionally, as opportunity offers.
Mr.. Long is an honest man, and a zeal
Gus Christian gentleman. We do not
like to f1atter any one, and will say that
he has his failings, like other men. We
have sometimes told him that the only
fault we could find in him was, that in
his kindness of heart he sometimes failed
to rebuke evil as boldly as we could wish.
He never likes to hurt the feelings of a
living mortal. Perhaps he is right in
this, and we may be too radical.

THERE were no goods sold at Oliver 5.
Miler's store on last Sunday. We have
not the least doubt in the world that it
paws to do right. The God-fearing, law
abiding citizen is the one who ultimately
makes the most money. No man has a
right to engage in abusiness which seems
to require him to violate the laws of God
or man.
MI. Miller sells enough goods Oh the
six days, to enable him to rest on the Sab
bath day. And such men deserve to be
patronized by all good citizens.

1858, and died in Jackson county, August 1st 1881.
For some time he had been sick with consumption,
which ended in his death, while yet in his early man
hood His disease gave him full warning of death, and
favored him with time for preparation. He sought
and found the Savior, Joined the church, and ex-
pressed the that his in the hands
of Christ, and that everything was safe.
The fuHeral services were held at the home of his
mother, August End, and laid him to rest in the

THE OLD FARM HOUSE FOR ME!

Let Luxury its palace seek.
And Pride its fine display
These are but fancies of the weak,
And quickly pass away;
No stately mansion is so fair
AS the woodland, wild and free
With its shady groves and bracing air,
The old farmhouse give me.
Let Fashion smile her sweetest smile,
And lure dull Folly on,
Let weak Pretension rule the while,
And earthly cares be gone;
Yet in the city's pent-up throng
No pleasure do 1 see
With flower, and field, and bird, and song,
The old farmhouse give me.
The worldly pleasures of mankind
But shadows are, at best,
Enjoyed few short years, to find
A need of peaceful rest;
Let others go where'er they will,
The world is broad and free
Imake my choice-for good or i'll
The old farmhouse give me.
When, down the sunset slope of life,
wander, old and frail,
When, tired out with worldly strife.
These limbs begin to fail
oh, may be prepared to meet
Bravely, the great decree!
Then, a grave within some wild retreat
Near the old farmhouse, give me.

IT is appointed that all men must die.
When those we love are taken from us
we cherish their memory, and desire
never to forget them; hence the last
resting place of the body is held to be
hallowed, or sacred place.
From our office window we can see, a
mile north east, the city of the dead-the
new Cemetery. 1t is becoming dotted all
over with monuments, from the thousand
dollar granite monument of the promi-
nent and wealthy citizen, down to the
cheap little marble slab at the grave of
some little child.
Most of these mementoes of dead
friends were made right here in Jackson,
at the great marble shop of Adam w.
Long. No finer work is done any where.

THE crowd in town on last Sunday was
perhaps the largest crowd of strangers
ever seen in jackson. 1t did not seem
strange, however, to Morris Sternberger,
the great Clothing man, Corner Main and
Broadway Streets. He has such i'm
mense crowds every day at his store that
great crowds have become commonplace
sights to him. But Morris always finds
time to attend to all cOmers.

Jackson on that day for tobacco, beer and
whisky. He did not dispute our estimate.

for something to eat, wear, or use in a
