Terrible Railroad Accident in Massa-
chusetts.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass, October q.
A terrible accident to a caboose of working
men, belonging to the North Adams freight,
yard, occurred this morning, in which thirty
men were injured, several fatally. About 8:30
this morning Engineer Charles Wells and Fire
man James Bostly left the North Adams depot
on the engine Deerfield on the State Road,
pushing a caooose loaded with thirty men 60
ing to wo.k at different places near Zcar and
Charlemont The party in the car included q
sectionZSlg, John Flynn, foreman; a gang of
miners, = hn G. Madden foreman; stone
crushers, Peter Barry, foreman; tracklayers,
Thomas Quinn, foreman; and carpenters,
J. J. Peckham, foreman. The engine
and caboose started for the tunnel. and had
gone about half the way there when the ca
boose, which was in front, collided with
Troy & Boston engine. The caboose was
raised from its tracks and carried to the COW.
catcher of the engine Deerfield. The front of
the engine was smashed in. Steam and hot
water flew into the caboose. The men not
hurt in the collision were burned badly, and
but few escaped without injury. None would
have been seriously hurt but for the explosion
of the engine Deerfeld's boiler.
LATER.
1t is now certain that eight men injured in
the accident will not live. The doctors have
nearly completed their examination of the in
jured men, and find thirty-three injured, all
scalded, many with cuts, bruises and broken
bones.
The explosion of tho engine was caused by
the drawbar of the caboose bursting in the
plate of the cylinder of the engine Deerneld.
The steam blew open the door of the caboose,
and filled the car in which there were thirty-five
men crowded close together. Many were un-
able to reach the doors, and in the stampede
many bones were broken. The boiling water
and steam saturated the mems clothes in q
moment and the men were fearfully burned.
All the injured were carried to their houses
All day the doctors offices were crowded with
anxious friends, beseeching them to first at
tend their injured.

portion of the earnings of the company
until a dividend thereof is declared.
Therefore, where a premium falls due
before such declaration, the policy

applied to the premium the amount of
an after declared dividend, although the
money divided was earned previously to
the falling due of the premium, and at
that time the question of declaring a

CONSTRUCTION OF WORDS.

Words in a contract are to be con-
strued in their ordinary and popular
sense, unless they have acquired by
usage of trade and the like in connec-
ton with the subject matter distinct
technical sense. Where word has both
a popular and technical sense, the mean
ing is question of fact for the jury. But
where words have acquired an exact
and technical meaning in any business
and are used in contract relating to
such business, they are prinla facie to
be construed in the sense which they
have acquired.-Houghton VS.. Water

There is but one point upon which
Bate and Russell men differ materi-
ally-the debt question. There are
a thousand criminal charges that a
democrat can prefer and prove
against republicanism. And yet
Russell man will contribute to the
election Of a republican against
whom a Thousand infinitely worse
changes can be alleged rather than
contribute to the election of demo
era with whom he differs upon but
one point. The republicans are not
sincere upon this question. They
occupy exactly the opposite posi-
ton in Virginia, and they espOuse
the COG in Tennessee only TO TO
ment strife among democrats and
secure power to themselves. When
ever it becomes necessary to their
lease of power to take the other side
they will turn and rend the very
men they seem now to be assisting.
We had better uphold democracy
and if we differ with each other now
upon one question, we will come out
better in the long run upon more
important matters.

The Reason as to Ohio.

cratic upheaval in Ohio-a separa-
tion of the republican neucleus, and
the orbit of the fragments is to
wards the headwaters of salt river.
There must be some powerful rea-
son underlying such a political
earthquake. Why did the demo
Gratis score a majority of 80, 900 in a
state that but recently was as de
cidedly the other way? None OF
the ordinary questions that cOnsti-
tute the points of difference be
tween the parties have ever pro
duced such enormous results and
the reason must be looked for in
some local matter. The republi-
cans last summer, casting about
for material to make up an issue,
seized upon the temperance ques-
ton. Like their half brothers in
Tennessee, they did not care for
temperance itself, but they thought
they saw in such espousal a lever
that would prize them out of the
mire in which they had engulfed
themselves by bad management and
general cussedness. They pushed
vigorously through the Legislature
n temperance law that was decided
to be unconstitutional, and then
they passed another that was une-
quail in its burdens and failed to
promote the cause itself. Their
sole idea was to promote their own
al, e
dy-gurdy haste to accomplish this,
they lost sight Of the effect Of The
law itself, and the consequence was
that it was found to be deficient and
unjust. They had to uphold it, at-
ter they had fathered it, and the
fact that they did uphold It after it
was found to be deficient and I'M
just strengthened the belief that
they were using the question only
for selfish purposes and not 80 ac-
complish 4 temperance reform. 1t
was exactly so. The people saw it
and knew it and they arose in their
might last week and rebuked them
for proStituting it to such a mean
purpose. 1t has an exact parallel in
Tennessee. The Boilers, in desper-
alton for something to "catch" the
people with, made a false pretense
that the democrats proposed to re-
peal the four mile law, and they
themselves its especial
defenders. 1t was ridiculous in the
extreme for them to seize upon a
measure that was passed and up
held by democracy and was firmly
fixed into our laws until it had be
come as effectual and irrepealable
as any organic principle; and it was
criminal to drag up this question
again and subject it to the ordeal of
reaf1irmation, with possible
chance of its repeal, for which they
would be solely responsible. The
mighty rush of waters in Ohio
warn them that the flood is coming
this way. 1t is an insult to moral
decency for any set of men to make
a false issue upon a question that
one Of the best laws ever
enacted and threatens to break
down a holy reform. The Ohio
idea will prevail in Tennessee next
month.

Give the Boilers the very highest
vote they claim for Russell and it is
not half enough to elect him. The
man who beats Hawkins must get
10000 votes. Their highest claim
.or Russell is 10000, and they seem
to be straining every energy to reach
this figure because it will take just
that many for Russell to elect Haw-
kins. Democrats ought not to lend
themselves to such a scheme.

Impressions.

A. convention which brought to-
gether the largest number of people
was the farewell meeting held in
Antoinette Hall Sunday night. The
capacious room was crowded. The
congregations from the several
churches assembled there at So'clock
and manifested a most profound
interest in the services, which were
truly touching in many respects
The chief purpose of the meeting
was to hear a brief statement from
each delegate of what had been the
most important impressions made
upon his mind by the convention.
Some had been impressed with the
present and prospective growth of
the Y. NJ. G.. A. work; some with
the spiritual and religious work that
had been done here; some with the
fact that middle aged men and old
men Of influence and high character
had enlisted, greatly to the encour-
agement of the young men and the
advancement of the cause, and some
with the consciousness that they
had been built up in their faith and
that they could return home to work
more zealously in their respective
associations. Others felt that they
were engaged in a glorious work and
had a glorious convention. All
were impressed with the beauty of
Pulaski as a town and the hOspi-
tality of her citizens, and all the
young men had been impressed in
some way or other by our young
ladies. We were not at all surprised
to hear such expressions as these
last mentioned, because the accom-
plishments and attrdctiveaess OF our
young ladies are irresistible, and
calculated to impress older men than
they and more of them. Our own
beauX sympathized with the dele
gates whenever they spoke on this
impressive subject, and were ready
to give them warm shakes by the
hand and tell them-good-bye As
to the beauty Of oul town, we al
ways have been proud of that and
ever expect to be. But we were i'm
pressed upon this occasion with the
expressions of the delegates in re-
gard to the convention, and with
their manner of expression as WE'LL
They evinced that they were deeply
in earnest and fully acquainted with
the work in which they areengaged:
that they have studied the bible and
are qualified for the duty and zeal
Gus in WHIT they do; that the or
ganization of such young men as
they for such a purpose as they have
in view is a powerful agency for
good, and demands the encourage
ment and support of all fair minded
persons everywhere; that they are
destined to attain great success in
rescueing the fallen and to obtain
lasting reward from Him in whose
service they are laboring.

pressions as these cannot result in
evil, and as was said by the presi-
dent of the convention here, no one

object and workings of the Y. NC.
