KILLED BY THE CARS.
Death of Henry Zimmerman, Jr., on IL
Ft WAYNE Road

Death of Henry Zimmerman, Jr., on the
FIT. Wayne Road.
About one o'clock on Saturday after
noon, Henry Zimmerman, Jr., aged about
sixteen years, an emplOye of the DiebOld
Safe 81 Lock Company, returning to
work after dinner, had to cross the tracks
of the Pittsburgh, Fit. Wayne & Chicago
railroad near the passenger depot, to go
to his work. On a side-track stood a
number of freight cars, two of which
were several feet apart. He was seen by
several persons to go between them, and
supposed to have passed on to the shop
of the safe company. For some reason
he stopped a minute, and while there
standing, a shifting engine backed up
to couple the cars mentioned. AS the
brakeman ran up, too late to make the
coupling, he found that Zimmerman
had been caught between the bumpers
of the cars. They were pulled apart
and the boy taken into the section house
near by, where he died in about ten
minutes. The house was crowded with
excited people, and in some manner the
stove full of burning Goals was upset,
nearly lgniting some waste and several
barrels of oil that were stored within.
After much eXertiOn a cOntlagratiOn was
dverted. The body was taken to his
fathers house near the COnnOttOn depot,
from which place the funeral took place
Monday afternoon.

HUGO, HOW COULD YOU DO sOq
The Great Greenback Journalist as
Mining Stock Sharp.


Mining Stock Sharp.
Everybody knows Hugo Preyer, the
crazy lunatic, who ran a German Green
back paper in little back room in Har-
ter's Block, some years ago during the
palmy days of the Fiat money" party.
The paper was set up mostly from eX-
changes, and we recollect hearing the
brilliant orator and candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor on one Occas on say in
ringing tones to his trembling "slug 2"
''where in h is the Irish World, l
want to get an original editorial"
Aside from wind, bluster and cheek, the
man possessed no weight, nor his paper
any influence. Some time after the lat
ter died natural death, he left for the
west and became associated in business
with Brick" POmerOy in the Buckeye
Mining Company as secretary. Two
great men together. He received ten
thousand shares of stock to secure his
faithful services, with the understand
ing not to sell them, but wait until the
mine was developed and then draw div
idends on the shares. How well he per-
formed his duty will he seen below.
POmerOy'S paper "The Great West"
cautions all persons from buying any
stock in the Buckeye Mining Company,
as the property is all mOrtgaged and no
work being done. The naughty Hugo
knew this and wanted to unload his
stock, 50 he sent out pOstals saying there
was plenty of rich ore in sight and the
company would sell no more stock, but
that he had some left he would sell for
81 share. He sold plenty and pocket
ed the money, unknown to the company.
Of course this stopped their cash re-
ceipts, and President POmerOy advanced
money, until his funds run out, to pay
for work done. When the money was
exhausted the President notified those
who had bought stock of him that the
company was not doing well and ad
vised an exchange of stock to fully pro-
tect them. He gave copy of the notice
to Secretary Preyer, who sent out cir
culars signed by himself and f. B. May
field, as trustees, saying the money had
been wasted by the President, and ad-
vised all to hold on to the stock. He
then sold all his remaining shares on
the strength of that statement. Mr..
Mayfield says he never signed any such
paper and was East at the time it was
sent out. PreyeT sold his last 1000 shares
to pay a ten dollar debt. He was get
ting $25 a week as Secretary, but ac-
cOrding to the "Great West" was
swindler and prOstituted his official pO-
sitiOn for personal profit. Where this
brilliant financial meteor will turn up
next is curious query.

The Fiftieth Anniversary

OF the birth of j. B. Silver, of our city,
was duly hOnOrpd at the family residence
on South Cherry street on Tuesday even
ing last week. This was got up at the
instance of friends, and a happy and
pleasant occasion they made of it. A
good party of invited friends assembled,
and at about Z o'clock, sat down to
sumptuOus repast that would have done
honor to any occasion. The surprise to
Mr.. Silver was after the feast, when his
attention was called to a fine rocking
chair, just smuggled in, of the latest
style and fine finish, bought at the eX-
tensive furniture establishment of j. b.
McCrea. The Rev. Osborne, of the First
NJ. +. Church, addressed Mr.. Silver ,
behalf of the donors, and in few happy,
and humorous remarks, presented the
chair. Mr.. Silver confessed his surprise
and acknowledged beat" Mr.. Osborne
took the paper wrapper off an elegant
ebony cane with an ivory handle, the
gift of Mr.. Churchman, mutual friend,
and presented the same to Mr.. Silver.
The speaker relieved Mr.. Silver by say
ing that 'sileuce was golden on an &C
casiOn of this kind, especially on the
part of the individual situated as he
was. The party after this spent pleas
ant hour or two in conversation, relieved
by songs and music on the piano, from
time to time, the chief performer being
the accomplished Miss Jack.

William Nelson, the thief held for

committed to Jail by Mayor PierO in de-
fault of $500, was released on bail last
Saturday by Judge Pease of the Com
will readily be seen by any one who
knows anything of law, that the Com
mon Pleas Court was the only one hav-
ing jurisdiction in the matter of fixing
the bond, as the case had passed out of
the inferior court. Perhaps the legal
reporter of the Repository would like to
run the COpmOn Pleas Court awhile in
the same manner he once endeavOred
to operate in the Mayors domain last
fall, and instruct the Judge what
amount of bail is necessary to fix in
criminal cases.
