John w estuu Instantly Killed aS Steeiron
Yesterday.
John Weston, timer, and a resident
of Harrisburg, was instantly killed at
Steelton on Monday. He was engaged by
N. s. Hensel, q slater, to roof the residence
of Peter Logan. He worked all morning,
but was unwell. At dinner time no COM
planned somewhat, but decided to work on.
He had scarcely got up on tho roof when
he was seized with sickness and lost his
balance. The house is about "a feet high
and Mr.. Weston fell to the ground. In
his fall Weston struck the projecting posts
of a porch with his head, crushing his
skull. When picked up it was found that
besides the fracture his both arms and
one leg were broken. He did not recover
consciousness after he fell and died in
about Is minutes.
Dying From Axe Wounds.
At Roanoke, Virginia, John Ed
wards (colored), who recently came there
from Buckingham was found yesterday
morning in the suburbs Of the town hor-
ribly mutilated. How he came to be in
this condition is mystery, but it is sup
posed that he was attacked by q negro
who is a rival of his for the affections of a
young mulatto girl, and who met him
last night on his way from church and
assassinated him. The instrument used
in the attack was an axe. The wounded
man cannot possibly live. His mock is
almost severed from the head, and there
are other dangerous wounds about the
back and shoulders, He is unconscious
and unable to give an explanation.
Talk OF Another Lynching.
John Smith, alias John White, q negro
who murdered Josiah Harding, at Elkins,
Garrett county, Nd, on May Is, will be
turned over to the authorities of that
county. Besides tho crime of numbering
Harding the man committed feIoniOus
assault on the lattsr's wife, The murder
was committed for that purpose. The
prisoner fled from Garrett county and
made his way to Winchester, Va, where
he has just been captured. The Maryland
officers left for that place, secured their
prisoner and proceeded home with him. 1t
is not all improbable that they may be
intercepted on their road, and the muir.
derer taken from them and lynched.

Not Wanted.

The English government, having
hanged a certain number of the PQlenix
park murderers and having accepted the
testimony of others to secure the con-
viction of those hung, now proposes to
send its witnesses out of the country
whether they will or no. 1t gives them
a choice of places. Mr.. Carey says he
prefers to stay in Dublin but he is in
formed that he must get out of Ireland
and is encouraged to 20 by being us
sured that the police will not be able to
protect him if he stays. This is showing
a great deal of consideration for its wit
nesses and for itself. The government
probably does not care much for the
witnesses but it wants to get out OF
the hanging business, and knows that if
the witnesses are killed it will have to
hunt up those who did the deed and give
immunity to some of them to catch the
others and will be likely to have al
endless work of it.
We do not suppose that Mr.. Carey OF
any of his associates will elect to be
sent to this country, They would prob
ably he safer in Ireland. They have III
admirers here. They are the worst o
the men who perpetrated the murder
in the Phoenix park. They saved thei
necks by surrendering their fellows tt
the gallows. They are not the kind o
citizens We desire to have among us. l

clude the United States among tue place

THE long canvass for a board Of direc

was for change in the present system by
which stockholders absorb so much of the
valuable sittings and the concern pays no
