The narrow escape from a collision or rather
from one train running into another, at Spuy-
Ten Duyyil, ON the Hudson River railroad, last
Saturday recalls the fact that the terrible diSas-
ter at precisely the same spot last winter has
passed entirely out OF mind without any OF the
persons responsible for 1t having been called to
account for their criminal carelessness on that
occasion. Even the brakeman whose guilty negli-
gence was clearly shown, and who ran away for
rear OF being lynchc1 therefor, has never been
brought into court, nor has there been any steps
taken either by the courts or by the railway COM
pany itself which will prevent a recurrence OF the
same sort OF calamity any day In the week when
train happens to be delayed for few moments
at or near the scene of last winters sacrifice to
Mr.. VanderbiltS greed. 1t is evident that, by the
distribution OF free passes by other equally
Gemoralizing agency, that gentleman is stronger

GREENSBORO, n. c., Oct. 1S.-W nile
the usual Wednesday night services
were going on In the RoxbOro Baptist
Church, which was crowded, the I'M
mense chandelier, holding twelve large
kerosene lamps and suspended from
the ceiling, broke and fell in the midst
OF the congregation. As the chandelier
fell, the lamps were overturned and
spread Kissing sheets OF ire Ill every
direction, and in aH instant the church
and many of the congregation were IN
flames and others were stitied by the
black oil smoke, which quickly hlled
the building, Men, women and ch'l-
dren were soon crowding together In
one budding mass, all panic stricken.
The minister was among the first to
recover his presence of mind and he at
once called to the deacons to preserve
order and PERSUADE the congregation 70
be calm. This had the desired effect,
and as soon as the minister, who fortu,
nately had . stentorlan voice. shoutea
the names of the different church 9TH
GERS present they began at once to break
open the doors and windows and organ
ized to remove the women and children
The church, which is large frame
building, without galleries, had four
doors and large windows on each side,
and fortunately was not raised high
above the ground. The congregation,
therefore, were enabled to get out with,
out delay. Several ladies and an old
gentleman were badly injured by the
railing chandelier. Numbers OF others
were burned by the oil, but up to TINS
hour no deaths are reported, but 1t II
feared that four of those present, all
young ladies, will die from the effect OF
the flames,

was before the Mayor last evening to
answer the charge Of using threatening

disorderly manner. The evidence
showed that the defendant had been
employed at the Arlington Mills and

perintendant Gambrill to dischart 8
him. 1t was alleged that Schofeld then
went into the Office and acted in a dis
orderly manner, and threatened Mr..
Grimes with personal violence. He al.
30 attacked Mr.. Grimes that evening on
the street, aud threatened him again.
The defendent admitted using some OF
the langua e complained of by the proo
ecutor. but said he done so on account
of Mr.. Grimes refusing to give in his
time, 80 that he could draw his money.
There were several witnesses examine
for the prosecution, and after hearing
all the evidence, the Mayor adjudg
him guilty, and imposed fine of 81
