lessly walking ON the track; that the
accident was entirely unavoidable,
the engineer, James Buckley, having
given the danger signal, and done
all in his power to save the men, but
without avail.
Twenty-oue dollars was found ON
the persons of the dead men, and
papers indicating that they were
we'll educated. Both were Germans.

the necessary examinations and tes-
titled before the Coroner's Jury.

On Saturday last, while the steam
thresber of Mr. A. Vanmetre was
engaged in threshing out the wheat
on the farm of Mrs. n. b. Hen
shaw, near Big Spring, on the Win
chester pike p miles from this city,
the wheat stacks caught fire, and
dispite all efforts TO prevent, it
spread to the stables and other out
buildings near by, and all were con-
sumed. Assistance was sent for,
and the Martinsburg Fire Company
responded, taking with them the
hose reels and the steam fire engine
The fire company arrived too late
to save much Of the wheat, but sue
ceeded in preventing the fire from
extending to other buildings not al
ready destroyed. The wheat crop,
in which Mr., Fulk, the tenant, had
a share, was almost entirely destroy
ed amounting to about 1000 bushels.
Mr.. Vanmetre's threshing machine,
together with number Of the out
buildings on the farm, located near
the wheat ricks were burned
There was no insurance on any Of
the property destroyed.
The Martinsburg fireman were on
the spot with their apparatus in
twenty-five minutes after they left
town. This, we consider, good
/ time.
