The Tri-State Fair is brilliant success
all around this year. Every department
is well filled and interesting. The only
complaint we have heard mention OF was
against those exhibitors who never get
through driving nails or get their exhibits
in shape until the first, second and some
times even the third day Of the fair
The managers are highly complimented
for their untiring efforts to makeit wha,
il is, a success, and are only blamed for
being too lenient with tardy exhibitor
The attendance Wednesday was said tc
be the largest OF amy previous third day oI
the fair, and yesterday il was jam, the
estimate in attendance being $4,000.

The following is General Gibson's view
OF Judge Foraker, as expressed in recent
interview ~ regard him as one of the
m lost successful campaign orators Ohio has
ever produced. He speaks with ease and
grace, his words are well chosen, sincere
and impressive, and have un effective in
fluence upon his audience. He comes be-
fore the public unprecedei by great rep
utation, and his hearers are astonshed that
they never knew him before. His charac-
ter is perfect, his record clear, and his
ability large. He is the cleanest and best
man Tor Governor the State has known in
thirty years; and, possible excepting John
Brongh, the ablest stumper. told Hoadly
when he was at my honse at Tiflin, short
time ago, that he would suffer defeat ii he
allowed himself to go before the people IN
Joint discussion with Foraker. Hoadly
isa very poor politician, and his record is
such that Foraker would break down every
point he could make by answering HIM
with his own words"

A Frightful Accident.

A special dispatch from Webster, w.
Va, gives the details of a sickening acct
dent which occurred near that place one
morning last week. William Carson, =
young farmer, went to tho meadow to NOV
grass, taking with him his three-year-old
bow. The child, carried in his fathers
arms, made several rounds OH tho ma
chine. At one corner Of the field the
horses frightened at some object, and the
sudden start threw the boy from his faith
er's arms to tho ground in front of the
cutter bar. Quick rs thought the father
sprang to the rescue, but the horses, now
thoroughly scared, leaped forward crush
ing down parent and child, cutting tho
latter into small pieces, and horribly
mangling the former. 1t is though he
cannot recover. The horses dashed into
a fence and one Of them is reported dead.
The field where the awful accident occur
red is near the house and CarsOn's wife
beleld the whole scene without being able
to render any assistance whatever. She
Is nearly frantic with grief. The excite
ment in the neighbOrhood is intense. Car
son was young man, highly respected
in his community, and the sad and terri
Bile accident has cast glooom over the en-
tire neighborhood. One limb, the side of
the face aud great slices Of flesh were cut
from the child, and 1t was otherwise
bruised and mangled. Mr.. Carson sus-
tanned injuries about the head and breast.
The arm and leg OH the right side are
frightfully cut and torn, and the victim
presents sickening aspect.

Death On tho Rail.

A terrible collision occurred on the
Romo, Watertown and Ogtlensburg Rail-
road at Carlton, six miles north Of Roch-
ester, n. Y, on the shore of Lake On
tario, OH Friday night, by which 10 per-
sons were killed and large number were
injured. About 8 O'Clock the steamboat
express from Niagara for the ThOusanG
Islands was running at furious rate OF
speed In terrific wind and rain storm.
AS the train ncared Carlton the engineer
noticed single freight car which had
been blown OH the track ahead of him from
siding. He at once put Oh the airbrakcs
and reversed his engine, but before the
speed of the train could be lesscned the
engine dashed into the freight car and all
was instantly scene of wreck and horror.
The train included two engines, six pas
scnger coaches and six slecpcrs. The
cars were we'll filled with tourists. The
first engine, strangely enough, tipped
over into ditch and was not much dam
aged, but the second engine was totally
wrecked. The engineer, who faithfully
remained at his post, was fatally scalded,
and the fireman, who stood by him brave
ly, was instantly killed. Envcloped in
darkness and drcnched in rain, mingled
means and piteous appeals for help came
from the wreck. kilograms for assistance
were sent to Lewiston and Oswego, ard II
relief train was promptly dispatched to
the scene of the calamity. Then began
the dreadful work of extracting from the
ruins the mangled and bleeding bodies Of
the dead and wounded. 1t was realized
at onco that many had been crushed to
death in the first terrible shock. Those
of the injured who could travel were
placed in sleeper and taken to the Falls,
while the rest were taken to the neighbor-
ing honses and cared for. On man, who
lives but few rods from the wreck, had
driven his son to Lyndonville, = distance
Of three miles, to take the train, and got
home Just i'm timo to find him corpse.

A Terrible Earthquake.
The town of Casamicciola, on the ISL,

The town Of Casamicciola, on the island
Of Ischia, near Naples, was almost entire
ly destroyed by an earthquake Saturday
night. The neighboring towns of Forio
and Lacccameno were greatly damaged.
The number Of people killed is not known.
Many Romans having Willis at Ischia are
known to have been lost. The dead are
fearfully mutilated. In some cases corpses
are plainly observable through the ruins,
but they cannot be extricated. 1t is sur
missed that some persons are still alive in
the cellars. The calamity will, it is said,
infinitely exceed the Chios earthquake in
1881. The shocks began ut half-past nine
O'Clock at night. AT that hour majority
of the people of the upper classes were at
the theatre. Nearly all Of the houses i'm
Cassmicciola collapsed. The Syndic of
CasamicciOla telegraphs that the shock
came with irresistible violence, and was
accompanied by deafening noise. The
confusion in the theatre was fearful.
Lights were overthrown and set fire to the
building. A dense cloud of dnst filled
the air. Cries Of pain and terror were
heard OH all sides. On hearing shouts Of
''To the seal" general rush was made
toward the shore. Every boat and float
ing thing was taken by assault. The Pre-
feet OF Naples telcgraphs that the town Of
Casamicciola has ceased to exist. The
Bishop of Casamiceiela is reported to be
among the dead. None Of the dispatches
mention American names among the killed
or injured. 1t is impossible as yet to give
the number Of dead. In the latest ac-
counts the number is estimated ut four
thousand. The Hotel PlccOla Sentinella
sank in the earth, and buried many of its
inmates. The centre OF the arc Of the
shock was tie same as that of two years
ago, but the radius was wider. The shock
was felt at sea, and, according to some ac-
counts, oven at Naples. The ground OPEN
cd in many places, while in other places
there was no movement. Water gushed
out of springs. Several boilers in the
bathing houses burst. The theatre, which
was wooden structure, was literally torn
open, allowing the audience to escape.
AS it would be impossible to recover and
bury al! the bodies Signor Genela, Minis
ter of Public Works, has ordered that, in
view Of the horrible eXhalations from the
decomposing remains, the unrecovercd
corpses be left where they lilo and liquid
lime be poured over the ruins made by the
earthquake. Casamicciola will thus be
converted into vast cemetery.

A Strange Story from Texas.

A carriage containing the skeletons of
three adults and two children, sitting bolt
upright. as If in life, under large tree,
has been found near a road in Llano coun-
ty, Texas. The tree was shattered by

the horses. The weather-beaten appear
