A Miraculous Escape.

Yesterday afternoon, about one o'clock, Cap

and wagon at the head of Central wharf, just
as a train of freight cars were backing IN the
wharf, land passenger train was backing down

driving and noticed the passenger, but not the
freight train. When he saw the latter he whip
ped up his horse but the animal fell on the

reins broke and the two men were at the mer-

managed to regain his feet. AS he turned
from the track the rear Car hit him on the
shoulder pushing him on one side and barking

AS the car struck the horse Capt Horace

mhite Mountain Club.

The club were favored yesterday with as
clear and mild day as could be asked for, and
their visit to Bradbury Mountain in PoWnal
was every way pleasant
This so-called mountain is only 48O feet high
bat it commands view equaled by very few
of our New England peaks. The clear air
brought out plainly the Camden Hills in the
east and the White Mountains in the north
west. The woods and fields furnished an
abundance of wild flowers, SO that taken alto
gether it was the most successful excursion the
club has ever had.
Taking advantage of the exceptionally clear
atmosphere the club made study of the Mo-
riah range and Stoneham group and finally
F-alyed the problem which has been before the
clubs number of years. Speckled Mountain
of StoneAam was found, although the tin sig
nal lately pos there by the clob could not be
seen through ansof the glasses. Mt. Royce
was also found, and It was discovered that it is
not recognized from Portland because it lies
Just in front of the northeast spur of the Mo-
riah range, and having a similar outline it
With these two important discoveries the iden-
tifcation of other mountains was made easy.
The club desire to call public attention to
the beauties of this place and the adjacent
country, and hope that lovers of nature may
pay frequent visits to this vicinity

Attemnt at Robbery.

The Item says: ga man on his way from
Colorado to his home in the eastern part of the
state stopped at boarding house on CONNER
cial street, in the vicinity of the Custom House
Tuesday night. He had with him over $500.
During the evening he had occasion to change
the money from one pocket to another and it
is probable that some men who were in the
room at the time saw the money. The traveller
retired to room in the second story of the
house about II o'c ock How long he slept he
does not know but it must have been more
than an hour, when he was awakened by
bright light being flashed in his face. He
sprang up in bed and saw man just entering
his room through the window, which had been
left open. The man held in his hand bulls
eye lantern, the light of which had awakened
him. Selling chair, the intended victim
raised it over his head and made dash for
the robber. The fellow turned back through
the window, and dashed down ladder by
which he had assembled to the window AS
the travele looked down he saw that there
were three men. When they saw that their
intended victim was on his guard, they fed
down the street. He sat up the rest of the
night, but was not again disturbed. The
landlord of the house pretended ignorance of
the affair, but the man who told US the story
thinks he put the job up.

LIGHTNING'S FREAKS.
Terrible Effects of Thunder Storm at
Winter Harbor.
[cor. Ellsworth American

[Cor. Ellsworth Americana
In the terrific thunder shower which visited
Winter Harbor Sunday night the lightning
struck the house Of Mr.. Sewell Myrick at the
lower harbor, making sad havoc with every
thing with which it came in contact Were it
not that your correspondent visited the scene
and saw for himself the effects, he would hest
tate to make anything like particular report,
for mere sight of the debris scattered in every
direction, would make one sceptical that the
occupants could have escaped without serious
injury Mr.. Myrick and wife were awakened
about midnight by the noise of the tempest,
but lay listening to the almost continuous re-
ports, little thinking of the peril which awaited
them At twenty-three minutes past twelve
the fiery bolt struck the house near the CHM
ney, and penetrating the roof passed down
through the castings around the same, sweep
ing everything before it, and, when it entered
the sleeping room occupied by Mr. Myrick ana
wife it had not left single brick upon another
The room occupied cannot DO more than ten py
twelve feet in size, and the bed was about six
feet from the chimney. While the chimney
was falling the bee stead was struck, either by
the bolt or the flying bricks and pieces OF wood,
and the foot piece was torn into spl1nters. Inc
shock threw the occupants from the bed, where
almost paralyzed they found themselves pris-
oners in the burning room, and the lightning
playing around them in every direction. When
death in a most horrible manner seemed immi-
nent, the gas with which the house seemed
filled exploded hurting the helpless victims
through the window, which with sash and cas-
ing was carried some distance from the house.
The fast falling rain soon restored both Myrick
and wife to consciousness, and their cries speed
lily brought help from neighboring houses.
When it is known that more than two large
loads of bricks, plaster and broken wood were
piled around and upon the bed, that large
pieces of wood were driven entirely through
two partitions and door of thick material,
that every door in the house was burst from its
hinges, that six windows with sashes were COM
pletely demolished, that a large part OF one OF
the cellar stills was thrown several rods from
the house. that the lightning entered the eel
lar through the floor in three different places
and escaped in as many others, that a mattress,
two quilts, several curtains, ETC., were burned,
it must seem, as it seems to all who have seen
the result, veritable miracle that the Myricks
escaped with only few bruises and slight
burns.
Mr.. Myrick estimates his loss as somewhere
between two and three hundred dollars on his
house, ucon which there was no insurance, but
he deems himself fortunate in escaping with
no greater loss and no more serious injury.
Late in the day those assisting in clearing
away the debris found the clock, thrown from
its position, indicating just twenty-three min
utes of twelve when the lightning struck.

RAILROAD NOTES.
Eastern and Boston and Maine.

The fact that no measures have yet been
taken to arrange new pooling arrangements
between these two roads, the old one expiring
by agreement July LIST, leads TO the expecta-
ton that the near future will bring about
practical consolidation of the two roads. LII Is
stated that one of the propositions recently
made came in the shape of an offer from the
Boston and Maine to lease the Eastern ana
pay its stockholders per cent. per annum De-
sides the fixed charges. Another account says
the negotiations have SO far progressed that
the Boston and Maine Railroad Company mas
proposed 20 the Eastern a consolidation upon
thia basis, the earnings Of both companies 70
be treated as a whole, and out Of the net earn
ings the interest upon the bonded debt OF both
roads to be first paid; then per cent. upon
the stock Of the Boston and Maine Railroad
Company to be paid, and thel any surplus TO
be divided jim equal per cent. upon both the
Eastern and Boston and Maine stocks.
Another proposition from the Eastern is for
Il at company to lease to the Boston ana
Maine Railroad Company upon ike terms,
save that after Boston and Maine Railroad
Company stock has paid s per cent. dividends
Eastern Railroad Company stock shall Do
entitled to per cent. dividends before both
companies divide the surplus.
OF course any proposition that may be ac-
ceptable to either road will have to be accept
able to the stockholders of both and the bono
holders of the Eastern.
Minor Notes.
The second class or smoking car in the In
bound train from the West, on the st. John and
Maine, due at ST. John Tuesday at p. M, ran
off the track at the head of Rodney Slip near
Carleton, and was thrown off the track on Its
side, narrowly escaping fall into the slip. The
passenger car ahead was dragged off the irons,
but not damaged much, The other car was
pretty well shaken up. The accident, 1t is
said, was caused by the forward truck OF the
smoker breaking loose and derailing :he car.
Nc one was hurt, but if it was not customary
to run very slow around this curve the results
of thu accident might have been serious.
Under the plan of reorganization OF the
Rome, Watertown and Ogdensburg Railroad
Company the committee of purchase were au-
thorized to reorganize the company without
a sale of the road. Ninety-seven per cent. OF
the bonds and over eighty per cent. of the
stock having been deposited under the plan,
the committee have decided that it would be
inadvisable to sell the road. The Farme
Loan and Trust Company of New York are
issuing the new securities IN exchange for GER
tificates of old bonds and stock.
