Last evening two Wabash engines
tried to pass each other on the same track,
near the lower incline but, AS in former
similar cases, the attempt failed signally
and resulted IN collision. The dirt train
was going down and an engine came up
with train from the steamer Duncan.
They met on the main track and would not
be stopped in time to prevent the coils
ion. They were not running at very.high
rate Of speed when they came together and
were therefore not much injured. No one
was hurt, but Mr., o. T. Smith, carpenter
on the McComb, had narrow escape.
He was sitting on the front of the engine
that came up from the boat. He saw the
danger considerably in advance, but
thought that the engines would be stopped
before they could come together. He sat
still until they were but short space
apart, then jumped down the embankment
and struck ground just about the instant
the engines met and demolished the timber
upon which he had been sitting.

Siberian Marriages.

Among the exiles in the Island OF
Saghalien, Eastern Siberia, the follow
ing custom prevails: If a man wishes
to get married. he applies to the Gov
ernor, who forthwith selects one of the
female prisoners whom the candidate
for holy matrimony is expected to
keep company" for two or three days.
II at the conclusion of this term the
male party declares to the Governor
that the lady selected is not to his mind,
he receives twenty-five blows with .
stick, and another bride is chosen for
him-and so on. The same course is
adopted with the female prisoners who
are in search OF husbands. These
matches are termed "oilical mar
riages, FOR the Governors marriages,
and are not followed by any religious
ceremony. -Irkntsh Sibir.
