known III Port DEPOSIT, where be formerly
lived, but now residing in Philadelphia,
was knocked down while crossing q vacant
lot i'll that city sunday night last and rob

money. He was not seriously hurt
Engine 209, otfreisht train No. 102, due
in Port Deposit at 1 80 p NJ, left the track
on the Baltimore Central railroad at Mt.
Alverno Tuesday, and plunged down an al
most perpendicular embankment into a
gully 20 feet deep, partly burying itself in
the earth at the bottom. The tank went
over the top OF the engine, carrying away
the cab an fatally crushing the engineer,
James Rambo, aud seriously, and it is
feared fatally, injuring The fireman, George
Mutt, Isaac Williams, the conductor, was
also on the engine, but escaped by jumping,
as did the rest of the crew, save one brake
man, who was slightly injured. Five loaded
house cars were carried off the track, and
two Of them went down the bank and are
badly wrecked. The engine is not much
broken, but the tank is lying upside down
and almost totally ruined 1t will, how
ever, be an expensive and laborious job to
get the engine on the track again, and it
will probably have first to be taken to
pieces. James Eambo, the dead engineer,
was killed almost instantly. He was 81
years of age, and leaves a wife and three
children, the youngest 10 weeks old, in
Philadelphia, where he lived. George Mutt,
the injured fireman has wife and one
child in Lamokin, Pa. The track was not
running as usual The accident was caused
by the breaking Of an axle.

use every effort to ferret ont the perpe-
traitors of this outrage, and, il appre
hended, they will be summarily punished.
The people of the neighborhood are
thoroughly aroused by the great number
of violations of law lately committed, and
at a public meeting held at Rising sun a
short time ago vigilance committee was
organized, which resolved that any one
arrested and found guilty of robbery or
attempt at robbery should be summarily
shot or hung, at the discretion of the
Eigilantes. The excitement iii the
community over this muderouS assault
upon Mr.. Richards is the greatest ever
known. He is we'll known, very popu-
lar, and his many friends aud acquaint-
auces would be glad of an opportunity to
avenge his injuries. Should his assail-
ants be arrested and identified, no mercy
will be shown them. but they will be
swung up to the nearest tree.

Assault.

On Saturday night. between nine and
tetl t. clock, Mr. J. Granville Richards, a
merchant doing business at Porter's
| Grove, about seven miles from Port De-
p Pbst, had closed his store and was walk
ing to lis residence, about half mile
| away, when he was suddenly confronted
by two men, who demanded his money
! or h!s life. Mr.. Richards prepared to
defend himself with his fstS-the only
H.ans ol Hy.cnce he had. One of the
mrn t&an struck violent blow with a
| c,ab, which richards received on his left
al ii, and knocking his assailant down
"llh his night fist, closed Immediately
with Aim and proceeded to punish him
severely. l'he man under him used a
knife effectively upon Mr.. Richards
shoulder, breast and thigh, and calling
to his companion to BE quick, for God S
! sake, be quick" the second man re-
sponGej to the call by striking Mr.. Rich

THE SHAPLESS MURDER.
New Charges Against johnson, Who Saws
He Expects to Hang

New Charges Against johnson, Who Says
He Expects to Hang
Special officer Alexander of the Third
police district, Philadelphia, returned
from Media Monday night with more evi-
dence against Alexander, the negro, who
is in the Delaware county Jail, charged
with the murder of Farmer John Sharp
less OF Neither Providence Township. At
the house of Carrie Lane, in Phiadel-
phia, where Johnson was living at the
time of his arrest, there were found a
spirit level, a coat, two razors, a razor
strap and some clothes which it was
supposed was stolen property. A search
was made..for their owner. He was found
i'll the person of Lewis Lewis of Upper
Darby, relative of John Lindsay. whose
barn was burned at the time of the
sharpless murder. Lewis is butcher.
His house was robbed on Saturday, No,
vember 2Sth. The robber was disturbed
in the midst of his work and fled, leav-
ing thick poker q feet long. which got
wedged between a sofa and a wall IN
such way he had no time to extricat it
and the coat In the pockets of the coat
there was big hole, which showed that
the poker had been let down in the 1ina
ing so that it might be hidden. 1t Is a
double breasted frock coat, such as the
venerable Mrs. Sharpless described as
being worn by the murderer. Officer
| Alexander thinks that the poker was the
weapon with which the kind Quaker,
Mr.. Sharpless, was killed, The identif
cation OF the property by Mr.. Lewis, who
is a careful man, was complete. There
has been rather a change of sediment in
Media on the subject of the murder.
| The people who declared that because
Johnson was arrested by outside detec
tive talent, that he must necessarily be
innocent are now beginning to concede
that circumstances are against him.
Johnson told Warden Baker Of the Media
Jail, that he expects to be hanged for the
murder. The farmers pocket-book found
on johnson has not yet been inaentified.
A woman has been found who, it is said.
gives the police information tending tc
show that the prisoner was near the
scene OF the murder at the time it was
committed, There is lots of evidence
coming out to show that johnson is a
thoroughly bad man. 1t has been showr
that during his stay near the Sharpless
farm he used to make periodical raids or
the verandahs of his neighbors and stea
their rocking chairs for firewood.

Stir in tee Spring Valley Methodist
Church-The Clergyman's Record.
The Rev. DR.. George II. Brstor is the
pastor of the Spring Valley Methodist
Episcopal church, i'll Rockland county,
New York, In November Ida Downs,
age sixteen, an inmate of a BROOKLYN,
asylum, was indentured to him for two
years. A few days ago an inmate OF the
house overheard DR.. Bristor warn the
girl that ''if she ever said anything
about it he would have Judge Gemmell
send her to jail Justice Gemmell is
next-door neighbor of DR.. Bristor That
night the girl was closely questioned and
tearfully admitted that the clergyman
had on three occasions been criminally
intimate with her. On Saturday Ida told
her sad story to Mr.. Gemmell and also to
Mrs. John G. Wood, whose husband is an
officer in Dr. Bristor' church. The pas
tor was summoned on Monday before a
meeting of the church officers, but except
the proceedings of the council are not
known. 1t is said that on Monday after
noon DR.. Bristor threatened to kill Ida
and she fled to Nj. GemmeI'S house.
There she was questioned by 5 II. Burr
and jackson Rose, two officers Of the
Methodist church. Dr. Bristor came in
greatly excited and demanded that Ida
return to the parsonage. Justice Gem
NELL said she had placed herself under
his protection, and refused to let her CO.
Finally Mrs. Gemmell, to prevent fur
ther trouble, allowed Ida to 60. DIR. Bris-
tor was appointed to the church in March
last by the Newark Methodist Episcopal
Conference. Two years ago he was ac-
cused of assaulting boys connected with
his church in Newark The Newark
Conference found him guilty and sus-
pended him. He appealed to the General
Conference and was reinstated. Last
March there was another bitter fight over
him in the Newark Conference. many
clersymen asserting that he was unfit
70: the ministry. BY small majority
committee reported that the charges were
not sustained, but recommended that
the case be reviewed at tse next annual
session. DR.. Bristor is brilliant
speaker, and at first the Spring Valley
church was not large enough to hold the
congregations called together by his elo-
quence. But with the opening of the
last campaign his power waned because
OF his activity in politics as rabid Pro
hibitionist.

parents, following a hearse, in which
rested a very plain coffin, through tho
streets of Reading, Monday afternoon,
to Charles Evans Cemetery, closed one
of the saddest of tragedies. The coliiu
contained the body of Miss Ida Hunger
ford, the pretty girl who was found in
the Schuylkill, below Reading, Sunday
last, after having mysteriously disap-
peared over three months ago. The
body was not taken inside the IIu ger
ford residence. The hearse containing
it was driven to the curb in front of the
house, while the ceremony was held in
side. 1t then pursued its mournful
journey to the grave. This was the sad
sequel to a skating rink acquaintance
ship. The girl was but twenty-one
years of age and taught class in the
Second Reformed Sunday School She
formed passion for the rink, where
she made the acquaintance of young
man belonging to respectable family.
Miss Hungerford was poor but pretty,
and under promise of marriage she was
betrayed. The young man fled the city.
Her trouble oppressed her and to com
panion she confessed all. To Miss Ida
Reese, friend, with whom she spent
her last night on earth, She said next
morning upon awakening: Ibid dream
