New Spring Trimmir gs.

The beauty of this seasons trimmings
is more in their refined effects and light
ness Of weight than anything else.
Three yards Of the new beaded trim
mings are not as heavy as one yard Of
last season s. There is a great rage for
gold and silver tinsel wrought into rich
passementerie bands on cream wOolens
in attractive oriental patterns. We have
a superb line OF them. All through the
stock of Gallons. Passementeries, Orna-
ments, Fringes, Gimps, &C., their weight
and designs are lighter and less pro-
nounced than heretofore though equally
rich and attractive.

during the night of the Is, a stranger,
whose name afterwards proved to be
Daniel Callahan, fell from an east
bound freight train, about a mile east
of Vanclevesville, and was crushed to
death by the cars. From papers
found on his person it appears that
his destination was Roanoke, where
he was going to obtain employment.
a letter dated last December, from
his wife indicates that she was at that
time staying with her three children
in Greenbrier county. His body was
found by the ''pick up'' going east
Tuesday morning, and was brought
here for Identification. Coroner Staley
summoned jury to hold an inquest,
and a verdict of "death caused by
falling from the cars" was rendered.
Furthur investigation showed that
Callahan had been employed as fore
man on the new railroad, but had
quit work on Monday. Statesman.

HAN Cling DEAD ON A BRIDGE.

CUMBERLAND, March 19.-W. H.
Albright, fireman on freight engine
No. 472 of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, met with a very singular
and horrible death last night while
his train was in motion. The circum-
stances and particulars of it will new
err be known. A short distance east
of Little Capon, twenty miles east of
Cumberland the engineer of the train
noticed the steam was going down.
He turned his head around to speak
to Albright, his fireman, about it,
when, to his great surprise, he was
not on the engine. The engineer at
once supposed he must have fallen
from the engine. The train was i'm
mediately stopped, and search was
made for the missing man. The
trainmen went back to the bridge
over which they had just passed, and,
to their horror, they found Albright
suspended by the neck up among the
bridge-irons, dead. The train was at
once backed, and the body taken
aboard and conveyed to his home at
Martinsburg. The place where AL
bright was standing at the time of his
disappearance was in the tender on
the engineers side, where he had no
occasion to look out. Albright was
highly esteemed young man. He
leaves wife and three children.
His remains were taken to No. ~
Water Station, Magnolia, Wednesday
and buried. He was a native of
that place, but had lived here short
time. He was about IS or 40 years of
age. 1t is supposed that he was look
ingyout to see whether the crate bar
had fallen out as fire had been noticed
falling out, when his head was caught
in the iron bars of the bridge and he
was strangled to death. Had he fall
en- through the bridge the high water
would have washed his body into
the Potomac.
