Freight Trains in Collision.

SHELBY, O., Feb. 15.-One of the most
disastrous wrecks that ever occurred on the
Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and In
dianapolis railroad occurred at 4:30 o'clock
yesterday morning four miles north of this
place. A freight train bound north and one
bound south, both running very fast, by a
misunderstanding collided. Both engines
were totally wrecked and several cars were
piled on top of the engines, nearly hiding
them from view The engineers and fremen
of both trains narrowly escaped death by
leaping from their cabs. The engines had
collided with such force that they could not
be gotten apart. Trains were delayed nine
hours. The wreck was pronounced by old
railroaders to be one of the most complete
within their recollection. The loss will
probably reach $40, 900.

A doctor dislikes nothing so much
as to have patient die on his hands.
He regards it as q reproach, not only
to the profession, but to himself indi-
vidually.
John Smith, a Boston man, was far
gone in consumption. His family
doctor expected that he would not
last more than a few weeks. So in
order to shift the blame on some
other member Of the profession, he
told Smith -
What you need is q change of
climate. You had better go to San
Antonio, Texas, where you will re-
cuperate in short time"
Smith did so, and arrived in the
Alamo city in an exhausted condi-
tion. He Immediately sent for one
OF the leading physicians. That pro-
fessional gentleman, like his colleague
IN Boston, very much dsliked to
have q corpse on his hands, 80 he
says to the unfortunate man -
MY dear sir, this climate cannot
agree with you. What you need is a
climate to which you are accustomed.
You should 90 back to Boston whore
