SENECA, 5. c., December II, 1889.
1t is surprising how much cotton
is still coming in. 1t is nothing un-
usual to see fifty to scvcnty-livc
bales Il day here. Trade is pretty
lively, too, the streets being crowded
every day.
The many friends of George John
stone, Esq, were pleased to see him
in town the other day.
BY the way that reminds me that
| am reliably informed that Mr.. ID.
N. Norris, OF pcnllcton, is added to
the list OF candidates for Congress
sional honors from this District and
will formally announce himself at
the proper time.
The oil mill people are greatly
disappointed at not getting their en-
CINE long ago, so that it could be at
work. The delay is certainly very
annoying,
y great many people are moving
into this ncighborhood from other
counties. There is Il great demand
for houses in town, too, and not near
enough TO supply The demand. a
trW nice cottages TO rent would add
Il grca, deal to the prosperity Of our
town. y.

How a Boston & Maine Car Ran on
TWO Tracks.

Boston. December 13.-A few minutes be-
fore 9 o'clock this morning an accident hap
pened on the Boston Sc Maine railroad with
in 600 feet of the Boston depot, which might
have proved disastrous to the company, in
asmuch as several persons had very narrow
escapes. The 8.28 train from Reading was
approaching the depot, running at the rate
of five miles per hour. The train crossed the
draw bridge in safety, but within ten feet of
the bridge the wheels of car No. 49, the
last car Of the five that composed the train,
struck frog, which caused the wheels to
diverge over the new portion of the track,
which has only recently been laid, and
which is some 20 inches higher than the old
readbed. The wheels ran on this track for
about 20 feet, when they slipped off and
came down on the old roadbed, causing the
car to careen over at an angle Of 60 degrees.
The car parted from the train and came to a
stand on the sleepers. Fortunately but few
persons were in this car, and those who oc-
cupied seats were thrown with considerable
force against the side of the car, and several
received slight injuries from the broken
glass and from contact with the seats.
The accident caused considerable excite
ment, and passengers who had escaped ran
back and assisted those in the car to get out.
Two of the ladies tainted, but we're not in
Jured save for the shaking up, and went
their way without the assistance of physi-
clan.
The wTecking gang was Immediately put
to work, and by 10 o'clock traffic was re-
Sumed.
General Manager Furber says that the ac-
cident was caused by switchman on the
railroad moving the switch before the last
truck had passed, causing it to run onto
a track different than that the front wheels
had taken Mr.. Furber refused to disclose
the identity of the switchman, as he is man
who has long been emploved nv the railroad
and who has an excellent reputation for care
fuinpsS
