at 6:35 o'clock with n large number of paSseu-

and several Annapolis merchants bound to

more than half o mile when the engineer dis
covered that the switch connecting with the
main track at the first siding outside of An
napolis was open. He instantly applied the
air brakes and gavo tho usual whistle for
" down brakes" at the Same time reversing
the lever of his engine and reducing the
amount OF speed considerably. but Il was too
late to prevent the entire train from running
off the track and proceeding distance of
about seventy five feet over the cross ties be-

the engine was within $50 feet from 1t and
going under so pounds of steam. Engineer
Sewel did everything in his power, and used
every means possible to avert the accident,
which was unavoidable under the circum-
stances. 1t was owing to his unhinching
courage, his presence of mind, and his fidelity
to his duty, that the accident did not assume
serious proportions.
Edmund Layman, the boss track hand, and
Clarence Stallings, an assistant who were
held accountable for the accident, have been
discharged from the service to- day. Layman
and his hands started early this morning on
hand car to make some repairs on the road.
The hand car was placed on the switch re-
ferred to above, and Stallings was given the
keys of the switch, with instructions to at
tend to it, which he failed to do through
negligence. Layman, who has been on the
road nearly nine years, regarded Stallings as
the most careful man in tho gang He par
ticularly impressed Stallings to be careful and
lock the switch Layman said this was the
only accident that has happened since he has

Potomae Bon club Benefit.

The first performance Of the series for the
benefit of the Potomac Boat club occurred at
the National theater last evening, and at
tracted fairly largo audience. "The Lady
of Lyons" was presented, with Katherine
Rogers, as Pauline, and Mr. Downing, as
Claude Miss Rogers, who for several years
has held very high position on the stage of
this country and of England, has strong quail
fcations for parts more heavily dramatic than
that of Pauline. Her reading, as well as
her acting shows n fine and clear intelligence,
as indeed 1t always hds. There is positive
pleasure to be had out of her delivery of the
lines; and even the tragic somber color she
gives to the whole portraiture is not without
its forgivable lights. Tho audience at least
enjoyed her work. There was q curtain call
at the close of each act and at the end
of the fourth the club presented
to her as a momento of the engagement,
very elegant miniature single shell boat
gracefully decked with the colors-of the club.
Mr.. Downing, as Claude, suffered in the eyes
of his audience by somewhat the Same reasons
as those referred to in Miss Rogers's case
though his acting quite compensated this.
Mr.. Downing is better Claude than might
have been looked for, considering the line of
parts he has been playing in Miss Anderson's
company. The Beauseant of Mr. Hanford
produced most excellent impression-so
good that his friends will wait with more or
less confidence, as well as curiosity, to see
him in other parts. The remainder of tho
cast call for no particular mention further
than a word to the intent that they were ade-
quate. "PygmaliOn and Galatea will bo
