pipe in his vest pocket, in which were a
number of cartridges for a pistol.
While his hand was still in his pocket
tt Q cartridges exploded and tore three
of his fingers off, and the end of one his
thumbs. One of his eyes was also
80 badly injured that it is feared he will
lose the sight of it. The bones of the
thumb and fingers were shattered into
his face and one eye. The face was
completely peppered with powder.

reference to several persons who were
under the influence of liquor on the re-
turn trip on Thursday night:
In Jersey City the manager of the
Philadelphia excursion tram, that pass
ed us at Frankford Junction, asked
me if l would allow him to attach
two cars to the rear of one of my Sec
tions on my return trip.
"I desired to know for what purpose.
He replied that his excursion left the is
land at 6 p. N. and some wished to stay
until 10 p. m l answered in the atfirma-
tive, providing they would be orderly,
as my exclusions were noted for order. He
said he would give me no trouble. ! told
himto write out two large cards and hang
them on the side of the two cars and to
90 along with them. He said that he
would have to 60 with his train, but
would deputize bis son to look after
them. l saw nothing OF his son nor the
cards.
"When once on the train, they went
where they pleased, but the disorderly
ones appeared to be to themselves and
settled down in one car. am sorry for
my passengers that were in the same
car. 1t has learned me not to be too ac-
commodating in the future when the
comfort of others are likely to be inter-
fered with"

. JUDGEiBLA0K's PROPHECY,
MADE BEFORE THE ELECTORAL CON-

The recent death of Judge Jere
Black has recalled his famous speech
before the electoral commission, a
speech that no other man perhaps
could have delivered unchecked. 1t
is not necessary to report the. whole
address. The nub of it was in the
concluding passage, which were as
follows: - ...' -.
"If this thing stands accepted,
and the law you have made for this
occasion shall be the law for all oc-
casions, we can never expect such a
thing as an honest election again.
If you want to know who will be
the president by a future election.
do not inquire how the people of the
States are going to vote. You need
only to know what kind of scoun-
drels constitute the returning boards
and how much it will take to buy
them.
"But | think it viii end end some
day. At present you have us down
and under your feet, Never had
you better rightrto rejoice. Well

a STARTLING PREAOgTTJ0N "

/ An old lawyer from the country
tells this story; II was brought up
on a farm, and there was seven OF
us children. We had all the work
to do pretty much, and liked the oe-
cupation. 1t was the business iof
my eldest sister to look after the
cows and milk thomJ and she was
good at it. One night she came to
the room where we boys slept and
reused us up, saying she had had a
dream twice oyer that the COW
stable was on fire and all the COWS
We're killed. We grumbled and told
her to go back to bed and dream
something better. She left us, but
some time afterward returned and
told us'she had had the same dream
again. = We grumbled more than
before, and when she begged us, ito
go and see that all was safe, we re-
piled that a thunder-stor was
coming on, and it was not likely we
were going on any such FOOLS err
rand. Then, said she, I'll 90 N.Y.
SELF and sarei enough, in Spfte Of
the storm which had broken right
over US, she went to the Stable. and.
though she found everything ali |
right, she turned the cattle loose. |
It was close upon daybreak,,a and |
they were glad enough to be free. |
Then she returned to- the house and
came to,our room and told sus what |
she had done. Scarcely had. she I
done speaking when there was
terrific flash followed by a crash |
which shook the, earth. Two min
utes later there was glare, .and on
looking we saw that the stable was
IN flames The dig htning had struck |
it and knocked it into a @shapeless |
mass, at the same time setting. fire
to IT. Not a vestage of it escaped. y
