HAvERHIII., MASS, January 10.-A
frightful accident beiel the Portland ex

o'clock this afternoon, the scene of the dis
aster being near the Haverhill bridge,
which spans the Merrimac river between
! Bradford and Haverhill. The train CON
sisted of : ears; engineer, Thos French,
and in charge of Conductor Weymouth.
This train does not stop at Bradford and
was going at great speed, The George
town branch train was standing on the
track near the water tank house at the
Bradford end of the bridge, waiting for the
express tO pass over 10 liavcrhlll. As the
express rounded the curve two cars lett the
rails and went crashing into the water
tank house, dcmolishing 1t,
Ia this house a number OF section hands
were eating dinner. John O'RTien, a
retired merchant of Bradford, was talking
to the section hands, aud was killed TO,
gcther with William Taylor, one OF the
lahOrrTs. The ear that crushed into the
tank house knocked the foundations out,
letting the heavy tank down upon the car,
crushing through the top of the car aud
doing fearful work within. The next car

ADDING TO THE HAVOC.
The killed aud wounded were mostly
in these two cars The cars behind these
two ran down aiOng.side the Georgetown

forward truck broke and the car bumped
against the end of the bridge causing il 10

distance over the sleeper, then careened the
other way and leaned against the ron work

of whom there were about thirty in the
car, l0nud themselves at the top of the car,
while it seemed TO some of them that the
car was tumblng OF the bridge TO the
river below. The passengers managed to
crawl out, none OF them being very seriously

The Esyptian Heaven.

Earth was not to the Egyptians what
it is to us, writes Prof. Maspero, globe
carried safely through space by the
laws of gravitation. Everybody in
Egypt knew that it was a fiat, oblong,
quadrangular slab, more like the upper
board of table than anything
they could imagine. 1t was sur
mounted by fiat iron roof
stretching at some distance from it,
and supported by four strong pillars
which prevented it from falling and
crushing what was underneath. Thus
the world was like two-storied house,
the various parts of which might be
connected, as they are in our houses, by
staircase, or by ladder. The Egypt
ians supposed that there was some
where i'll the west a tall ladder which
went up straight from earth to
heaven. Gods and goddesses watched
it day and night. Nobody was
allowed to climb it unless he
knew the password, and, even after
giving it, those poor souls were in dam
ger of never reaching the top who we're
not helped by some piteeus divinity.
Once Oh the solid floor of the frma-
ment, they travelled northward until
they came to the brink of the boreal
ocean; there they found the ferryboat
or the ibis Of Thot, the Judge Osiris and
his assessor, the island of the happy,
where they settled forever and ever
among the indestructible stars as indie
Structible as any of them.

BY order of Brevet Maj. Gen. Henry
Fl. Sibley, U: S. A., a special meeting
was held yesterday of the Minnesota
Commandery of the Loyal Legion of
the United States. The gathering took
place in Parlor No. of the
Hotel Ryan, and was for the par
pose of taking appropriate action re-
garding the death of Gen. Philip
Henry Sheridan. Those attending were
Brevet Maj. n. N. Sibley, U. S. ",
lcommander); Brevet Brig. Gen. J. II.
Bishop. U. S. "; Judge Gilfillan,
Brevet Maj. John P. Rea, U. s. ";

corder); Capt. Garrett, U. S. A, Capt.
GrOSSbeck, u. S. A., DR.. Biggar, q. s.
A. Dr.. Perrin. U. S. A.
Capt. Henry A. Castle introduced the
following resolution, prepared by a
special committee:
Phillip Henry Sheridan. general COM
manding- the armies of the United
States and commander-in-chief of the
Loyal Legion, died Aug. 5, 1888. Lifted
by approved merit aud magnificent
achievement through successive grada-
tons to rank among the fore
most leaders in the strug-
gle for national preservation,
he has lived until now wearing worthiIy
the laurels he so nobly won, and wit
Messing the augmented prosperity of
the land he so bravely defended. The
gratitude of his admiring countrymen
was ever in advance of his own modest
Self-aSSertlon, III appreciation of his sol
dleriy qualities, and in recognition of
HIS SPLENDID DEEDS.
1t is an added pOignancy to their grief
that his sudden removal in the golden
prime of his manhood, blights their ex-
pectatiOn of lengthening future years
in which to manifest their endur-
ing regard by cumulative honOrs.
While thus the nation mourns, there
comes to the surviving companions of
his lllustriOus service keener pang.
Within the sacred pale of that cOmrade
ship there is sorrow none out
side can measure, for it embos-
oms memories and loves and premOni-
tiOnS others cannot know.
Conscious of our incompetency to
adequately express this sorrow, as we
are confident that emblaZoned history
will do justice to his deathless fame,
the Minnesota commandery of the Mill
tary Order of the Loyal Legion re-
cords this memorial tribute to our de-
parted commander-in-chief, and directs
that copy of the same be forwarded by
the recorder to his widow as feeble
testimonial of our participation in her
bereavement.
Capt. Castle followed the reading of
lrlfVn .xs,l
tribute to the high military qualities of
the deceased general, and was seconded
in speech by Gen. c. G. Andrews. who
read cOpiouS references from the Lon
don Times, extOlling the military genius
of Sheridan. Commander Rea, of the
G. A. r., also spoke, when the resolu-
tion was adopted by the commandry.

'sThere's horrid bug on your trous-
ers. Brush it off, Jackr'
A pretty girl and particularly we'll
dressed youth were walking out Walnut
street yesterday afternoon about 5
O'Clock. The pretty girls face filled
with horror at the sight of long,
brightly colored caterpillar which ex-
tended itself lengthwise on her COM
paplOn's pantaloons just above the
knee. She struck it deftly with her
parasol, but the insect clung to the
cloth, whi eh was fine quality of black
cashmere. A second poke with the par
asol failed to disledge it. Finally she
stopped and tried to pick it off, but it
refused to move.
Better leave him alone, SIS"
laughed the young man, and upon her
asking what it was, remarked as fol-
lows:
'slt's new wrinkle. You order let

When Lawrence Was Larry.

New 1ork Telegram.
Away back in the ante-bellum days,
when every city of any pretersion had
its own stock company, which sup
ported the few stars who travelled in
those days, J. II. McVicker visited
Cleveland, o., in order to fill an en-
gagement for an eminent actor who was
under his management
With the aid of the local manager. he
cast the piece for the opening night
from the regular stock company, but
found that there was one small part for
which there was no actor left.
Larry can play that part all right"
said the local manager; ''I'll send over
for him. Here, you, jim! run across
the street and tell Larry to come right
over here us quick as can be-"
'Wh hos Larry?" inquired Mr.. Nc
Wicker.
ooh! he's young fellow who works
in a printing Office here and OCCASION
ally plays small parts for me. He'll do
it all right"
In few moments Larry arrived. He
was short of stature and of cadaverous
features. He was in his shirt sleeves
and his hands bore evident traces of the
composing room, which he had just left.
Small men are apt to carry themselves
very erect in order to atone, if possible,
for their lack of height, but Larry
carried himself so straight that, to use
a nautical term, he ''raked aft.''
DO you think you can get yourself
up in this role by tomorrow night?'' in
quired Mr.. McVicker, handing him
part of about two lengths.
Larry east glance of ineffabIe
scorn at the manuscript, threw his head
a little further back, and exclaimed:
Learn it? l should hope | could.''
The part was handed to him and he
made dignified exit.
What name shall [ put down on the
bill?'' inquired Mr.. McVicker,
Lawrence Barrett" said the local
manager.

RAILROAD EMPLOYEES
Organize a Club for Mutual Pro-
lection.

With view to preventing undue
anti-railroad legislation the coming
session. about 200 railroad employees
met in Winthrop's hall, in the Drake
block. last night and organized the st.
Paul Railroad Employees club. All the
lines running into the city were well
represented. Speeches were made by
President George III. Webster. of the
Minneapolis club, L. &. Boody, and
others. An outsider asked if Seheffer
could be permitted to speak in the
meeting. This was refused OH
the ground that it was not
a political gathering, and no
sides were taken with either party
or any, faction. A committee of three
from each local railroad was appointed
to nominate officers and select the next
place of meeting.
This movement ON the part of the
railroad employees is spreading all over
the state. 1t is in the interest of the
railroads, on the theory that what will
hurt the employer will eorrespondingly
lnJure the employe. 1t is to watch
legislative candidates, and throw
strength to the candidate who is favor
ably disposed toward the railroads.

A Young Mother.

BuHalO Express
A friend of the firm who declares that
he has no humor in his makeup, and
who. were he writer for the press,
would probably be dead failure at the
making of bright paragraphs and
''gOaks," has nevertheless an occasional
inspiration which is apt to be good in
proportion as it Is unluckily said.
Talking recently to a mother and her
daughter, he foolishly said:
Really, Miss l., your mother looks
younger than you do"
Then realizing from the young lady's
flashing glance that he had terribly
missed the compliment he sought to
give the mother, he fastened to add:
Because, you see, the older woman
Is, the more time she has had for mast
ering the art of looking young"
And now mother and daughter "cut
him dead"
