One OF the excursionists to this city
from Pittsburgh Monday night narrowly
escaped losing his life on his way home.
The mans name could not be learned,
but he came down over the Panhandle
in company with the clubs that came in
overthat route. He was not a member
of any of those organizations, however,
and instead OF marching, put in his time
taking in the sights and getting COM
fortably full. He started for home on
the Pan Handles last section. AT Nc
Colloch's, about eight miles above here,
he stepped out of the car he was riding
in to the platform, and while there q
sudden lurch OF the train threw him
off into the track ditch. His head was
very badly cut and he was otherwise
injured, so badly in fact that he lay there
stunned for nearly five hours. He was
first discovered by the engineer Of the
early morning train TO this city. He
was brought here and fortunatelyiellinto
the hands of some friends and acquain-
tanCes who took him back to Pittsburgh
on the first train. 1t will be wonder If
his injuries and the fOct that he lay SO
long Il time in the mud and rain do not
result seriously for him.

On Monday night the popular musical
comedy, "The Kindergarten" was pre-.
sented at the Grand Opera House by
Miss Katie Hart and an excellent sup.
port. There is nothing like a plot about
the piece, but there is plenty OF fun and
laughter. An advcnturer starts kin
dergarden school and then makes love
to his pupils, and at the same time pre-
tends that he is going to marry the
mother OF one OF them, IN Irish widow.
Any number OF laughable situations re-
suit from such state OF affairs. The
piece is made up to a considerable ex-
tent OF musical selections, some OF which
were very finely rendered. Mr.. Alfred
Mcdowell, as PkiLaRdcr MoRimarcRci s..
Clair Duohesic, was the soul Of the play,
and his every action and speech was
mirth.prOvoking. Miss Katie Hart made
a delightful Icy Mage and rendered some
charming vocal selections. She is q
pretty graceful little creature and quick
ly had her audience captive. Mr.. $. +.
Sanford took the part OF The Grinder
excellently and his bass solos were par
ticularly pleasing. Mr.. Fred Mendoza,
as Vid0,O Mdgee, was the source Of a great
deal OF merriMent. Eddie Giguere, as
the Sleepy Boy, was very funny. His
ialsetto solos were as fine rs anything OF
the kind ever heard in the Grand. Tho
balance of the support WIS also well
taken. This afternoon there will be a
grand matinee for ladies and children,
and the house will no doubt be crowded.
