\ Runaway Troop Train Crashes Into IL
Train Filled with Passengers.

llAKI;l>BIKG, Pa. July p An almost
miraculous escape Of many people from
terrible railroad catastrophe occurred at
the PtHn> lvania Railroad depot III This
city late Tins afternoon \ number OF
a>>cngcr trains were about ready To start
East and " est, and several hundred mon,
women and children Were bu>tng about
in their preparations for departure. sud
denly Il shout WAS heard and :. long pas
Senger train from the north, having on
board the Thirteenth Regiment y. e., en-
route to Camp Slegfrled, dashed INTO sight
a short distance above the depot. 1t ap-
preached ut an unusually high rate of
speed, and the cry from some one that the
train was beyond the control Of the engi-
neer created the greatest CONSERVATION.
The first thing the runaway train struck
was Il baggage car which was being shifted
across the track This was Knocked to one
side and the train came on, finally collid
ing with the day express East winch was
standing III the depot. The runaway en-
Sine was thrown from the track and the
cars 1t was drawing We're considerably
damaged. The express train was impelled
forward Il couple of hundred feet. Not
single person was injured, which is re
markabe when the character Of the acc
dent and the surroundings are considered.
The soldiers jumped out Of the windows
of the cars rs soon as the train cOllidcd.
The air break refused to do its duty, and
the engineer was unable to stop the tram.

A CURE FOR OBESITY.

DR.. German See read a paper at
the French Academy of Medicine a
day or two ago on the treatment OF
obesity. The method which he
recommends for getting rid of the
superfiuous flesh is simple, and does
not involve so severe a regimen as
that prescribed by the late Mr..
Banting. Azotized food is, the
doctor holds, the great cause of fat
and accordingly he insists on g
sparing consumption of meat. AL.
coholic beverages he proscribes, but
he allows the victims of corpulency
as much tea as they can drink,
This is the entire programme, and
Prof. Germain See is confident that
it suffices. = st. James Gazette.

to be that "the State should neither
support q Church nor be subject
to it."
The movement for disestablish.
ment of the Church of England
which in its ecclesiastical functions
also included Ireland, was COM
menced in that portion of the King
dom of Great Britain. The popu-
lation of Ireland is overwhelmingly
Roman Catholic in its religious
faith, and bitter complaints were
made of the people having TO sup
port q Church with which they had
no affinity. Constant agitation at
last succeeded, and few years ago
the Act of Parliament was passed
which disestablished the Church so
far as Ireland was concerned. The
established church of Scotland is
Presbyterian. Its leading clergymen,
however, have no seats in Parliament
by virtue of their office, and it is
free from most of the Objectionable
features of the Church of England.
The Queen, in the General Assembly
of the Church of Scotland, is repre-
scented by Lord High Commits
sioner, appointed each year by the
Crown, and who receives the sum of
$4,000 for his services.
The Archbishop of Canterbury
and most of the clergy of the
Church of England are eNerting
their influence in behalf of the Con-
sentative party because it is opposed
to .disestablishment, and it is stated
that Cardinal Newman, who, before
he became convert to Romanism,
was a noted English divine and q
professor of Oxford, has also ex-
pressed himself as strongly in favor
of the retention of the present
Church privileges. Mr.. Gladstone
does not come out in this matter as
openly as was expected. He appears
to be lodging the question, much to
the disappointment of many of his
followers. Perhaps it may be nc.
counted for by the fact that he is q
devoted churchman; in the absence
of the rector he officiates as the
leader of the service in his own
parish at Hawarden, and has al
heart hesitation for inficting q
blow upon the Church IN which he
was reared.-Sdn francisco Bul.

A DELIGHTFUL COMMISSION.

Young Mr.. Smythe was passion
ately enamored of Miss Browne, and
was squirming in his chair prepar-
atory to a proposal, when the young
lady said:-
"Mr. Smythe, you pass Mr.. Thin
plate, the jewellers, on your way
home, do you not?"
"Ies," he said huskily.
'Well, would you mind doing me
little favor?"
'Mind! dear Miss Browne" he
replied with a look of unutterable
reproach, "you have but to name it. "
Thanks! Will you kindly ask
Mr.. Thinplate if he has frightened
