BROKEN UP.
The worst railroad accident of recent
wears in this section of the State and the
greatest smashup ever seen in Vermont
occurred at s :02 o'clock last Friday night
lust north of Brooksville station and
about four miles from Middlebury. Two
tranmen and one passenger were killed

those bound for stations ON the Addison
road and for Ticonderoga, were dropped
Next the engine on the rest of the TRIP
was passenger coach and back of that
a combined baggage and smoking car

buys for cash and saves discounts. He

Coroner Mcdowell Surprised to Find His
Name Dropped.
The only new thing in politics going
about last night was a report that Arch H.

ticket, intended to procure votes for him at
the expense of Coroner Mcdowell, his col.
league on the Republican ticket. One OF
THE DISPATCH by man who averred that
it was given to him by young lawyer, a
friend to Rowand, who was formerly in
Rowand's office. The ticket reads "CoUN-
TY. For District Attorney, Arch II. Row.
and, Jr;, For Coroner, Harry Beltzhoover." F"
The supporters OF Richard H. Johnston
have got hold of some of these tickets and
are making out of them all the capital they
can.
The politicians were quiet yesterday but
busy. The four county candidates are work
ing hard. Mr.. Beltzhoover, the Democratic
candidate for Coroner, visited Homestead,
and put In some work among the mill men.
His opponent, Coroner Mcdowell, is hust-
ling like beaver. 1t may be said that Nc
Dowell feels certain he will win, while
Beltzhoover feels confident. Beltzhoover's s
friends admit that his weakest territory is
the First and Fourth wards. There he was
cut badly by Democrats when he last ran
for office. Democratic headquarters were
open last evening, and were visited by many
workers.
Coroner Mcdowell, when shown one of
the new smoothbores last night said that he
was somewhat surprised to see such COM
bination. 81 do not expect that such a
move will defeat me" said he, because 1
have every reliance upon my friends that
they will carefully examine every ticket,
and see that my name Is on it. The fact
is this is not the only attempt that has been
made to injure my candidacy, and from
quarters where it would be least expected,
but am satisfied to trust my interests in
the hands of the people of Allegheny
county, who will roll up the regular old
Republican majority, and demonstrate that
good sense will watch, and an honest vote
protect those worthy of the peoples conf
dence.''
The result o. Tuesdays elections, both
local and in other States. will be received
and announced at the rooms of the Allie
gheny Central Republican Club on Tuesday
night. Allegheny residents are invited to

THEY CRY FOR WATER.
Residents Below Heron Hill Supplied by a
Small SpriEE.

Small SpriEE.
While DISPATCH reporter was investi.
eating a matter in the Thirteenth ward, he
discovered one of the incongruities of muni.
cipal legislation. In steep ravine fanked
on one side by the Twenty-eighth street hill
and on the other by Heron Hill, there have
been within the past seven months about 13O
houses erected. The dwellings are commo-
dious, and have been built by thrifty work
men. Most of the structures are frame and
in close proximity to each other, but they
are in perilous condition, not having
any supply of city water. MANY of
the residents on Brereton avenue which
runs in a circuit from Thirty-third street to
Twenty-eighth street are complaining bit
terly that council did not pass an ordinance
for the laying of water pipes in their dis
trict. They claim that the nearest freplug
is 9, 900 feet away from them.
Mr.. Samuel Thompson, a resident on the
avenue, said if fire was to break out in
any part of this ravine. the consequence
would be great. He stated that before
water could be turned on the fire the whole
place would be il flames without the possi-
bility of saving a house. He further said
that frequent petitions had been presented
to councils setting forth their need. He
stated that councils had always ignored
their petitions.
Another inconvenience that residents in
this neighborhood are put to is the distance
that water has to be carried for household pur-
poses The old Hebrew custom can be seen
in this ward, women with ancient pitchers
drawing water from well, and taking it to
their homes, possibly a quarter of a mile
awav. The residents assert that it is an
outrage to ignore them in this manner. One
old lady said that it required half a dav
to bring water on washing day. As a mat
ter of hygiene and safety they demand an
immediate investigation of their wants.

PASSED THE ALLOTTED SPAN.

An Old French Lady Who Was Over 100
Years in This Vale of Tears.
An old lady, who attained to more than
the Biblical allowance of mans tenure on
life, and reached the reverential age Of q
centenarian-she had exceeded 100 years by
months-passed away yesterday in the
person of Mrs. Magdelena Burton. The old
lady had been an inmate of st. Francis
Hospital, on FortY-fourth street, for the
past year ard half, or since her son. Mr..
Michael Burton, formerly of Carson street.
with whom she resided, left the city to pur.
sue his occupation of glassblower at jean
nette. Mrs. Burton was a Frenchwoman.
and claimed Lorraine as the place of her
nativity. Her family included one daughter
and four sons, two of whom died in France.
She lost two sons in the late war, one OF
them being killed at Gettysburg.

mighty forest spreads its roots in the very

cedars overshadow our highest business

milkwhite buds, in the very center of our

with the radiance Of summer, red with
autumn's loveliest dyesl The birds carol
sweet and loud amid the roal

haps recalling the wild joys of long-gone
boyhood, spent beneath trees akin to those
which whisper in the wind above his head.
Children play in front cf the cable cars be-
meath the trees, and live no longer in the
ietid air of the town. There is a newer,
brighter atmosphere around them; their
young lives grow to maturity free from the
depressing influence of the gloomy, cheer
