She Scared the Gamblers.


WIFE RECEIVERS THE MONEY LOST BY HER Hus-
BAND
One of the gambling dens of Pottstown, Pa,
was the scene of sensational affair Sunday.
farmer named Williams had for many weeks
past been a regular habitue of the place, and
had dropped nearly all his savings ON the gam
ing table. He was such a regular player that
he was given key with which to enter the
gambling house. Several days ago he missed
his key, and thinking it had been lost he APP
piled for new one, which he received.
Sunday afternoon William was in his accus-
toned seat. Hehad not been there long when
his wife drove up High street, stopped in front
of the resort, tied her horse to post. and walk
ing across the pavement applied the key which
she had taken from her husbands pocket to the
lock. She entered the room where game was
in progress just as one of the gamblers was
scooping in pot containing her husbands last
dollar. scene ensued. Mrs Williams threat
ened, and the gamblers and her husband i'm
plored, but they could not move her. She gave
them the alternative Of paying her amount
equal to what her husband had lost in their den,
Or of taking the consequences of an exposure.
Mrs. Williams finally conquered. and few
minutes later she and her husband drove away
several hundred dollars richer than when she
entered Pottstown

Killed by a Locomotive.

William A. Durham, about 20 years of
age, resident of Madison. was struck and
instantly killed by the Morristown Accom-
mediation train at Madison about o'clock
on Thursday afternoon. 1t appears that
Durham undertook TO cross the track near
the station after the gates were down, and
was warned by the gateman that the train
was approaching, but he went under the
gale and started across the tracks, replying
to the gateman's warning, g The cars can't
catch me and they probably would not
had he continued straight across, instead
of which he went up the track aways TO-
ward his home. stepping off of the east
bound track onto the west bound right in
front of The engine. Coroner Hazen was
summoned. and upon examination it was
found that the man lost his life by his own
wilful carelessness.
Deceased was an old soldier. and leaYes
a widow. but no children. so far as known

When any Of our readers go 10 New
York city, be it a husband, or wife,
boy or a girl, if they want any deli
cious candy the place to get it is at
MaiIlard's, whose little shop in the Ar
cade Of the Equitable Building, l20
Broadway, has just been opened. We
do not suppose that those who go to
New York every day and return every
night will load themselves down with
candy. but certainly those who visit the
Equitable Building should not fail al
this season OF the year to buy some q
the delicious bon bons that Maillard
makes. and they will be gladly received
by any member Of your family.

distance of some thirty>iye feet, breaking
his neck and crushing his skull. No one
was present at the time. but it is supposed
that he made a misstep and struck the
scaffolding in his fall and was probably
dead before reaching the ground.

unnecessary DR.. Douglass made an ex>
animation soon after the accident and found
the neck broken and skull crushed as

siding on the Bishop Wigger tract. He
