posse and gang Of Italian road laborers,
in which several Italians were killed and
number wounded. Some weeks ago con-
tractor on the Norfolk and Western rail-
road named Keogh went away leaving nu-
merous creditors, among the number being
the Italians. A new contractor took pos
session OF the works, and put number of
laborers to work in a cut formerly worked
by the Italians. The latter refused
to allow any one to work in the
Gut until they had reoeived pay for work
to oust the new lsborers, Three times

tractor applied to tho court for protection
and was furnished a posse Of about dozen
men, headed by the sheriff Of Wayne
Court House. On Friday the sheriff ap-
peared and made an attempt to arrest the
Italians. who fercely resisted, and an uu-
equal combat resulted, with forty or moro
Italians on one side, armed with stones,
knives and revolvers and the sheriff's men
on the other. The Italians fought from
behind trees, stones and whatever would
shield mans body. The firing became
general and lasted some minutes. Several
Italians were killed and several wounded.
The sherif's men escaped with few severe
bruises. About twenty Italians were ar
rested and taken to Jail and the remainder
escaped in the woods. The scene Of the
fight is forty or fifty miles from here and
remote from railrpad and telegraph COM
munication.

Festipa LeAte.


The person who is the exact opposite of
the hurrying sort, the person whose move
ments are always regular, measured, un-
varying and never failing, not necessarily
slow. but never taken at faster rate than
can be maintained throughout. reminding
you of the steady ever-acceleratine move
ment of great engines eccentric beam, is
the one who will always come off winner
in the end. No haste there ever makes an
uncertain motion, occasions loss or failure
or imperfection; no flutter comes from the
focking sensation of the accommodating
pulses of endeavor; point after point is
reached as surely as the tide swell, in the
bay and covers ledge by ledge; what the
hand reaches for. that it closes over: moth
ing is overlooked, and be the end small or
great, it is attained; for nothing has been
undertaken for which the time calculated
and the movement allowed were not sufi-
cient. And all the world about that calm,
unhurrying person receives some of the calm
and is refreshed as if by gracious balm, by
the unshaped conviction amounting to in
stinct, that nothing here is begun that will
not be finished cody and quietly, without
STRAIN or discomfort, and is content to 60
along in the companionship of one who, in
the language of the day. always "gets
here."-Harper's Bazaar.

THE HORROR REVEALED.
Daylight Reveals the Iudescribable Scene
Of the Wreck.


Of the Wreck.
READING, Pa. Sept. 9O.-When daylight
dawned on the scene of last nights wreck
Of the Philadelphia & Reading railroad, .
full realization of the indescribable horrors
was first fully revealed. The engine lay in
tive feet OF water, the body of Engineer
White pinned under the heavy IRON work,
with his arms extended in appeal above
water. Next lay the tender on its side.
then baggage and mail cars and passenger
coaches, timbers broken and the cars over
turned. pinning the unrescued victims in a
death embrace at the bottom of the river.
Searching for the bodies continued all
night, and number were taken out. The
body OF George II. Kaersher, general coun-
sci OF the Reading railroad, was taken out
this morning, badly dis6gured. The scene
on the banks of the river is CHASTITY. The
long row Of dead increased as one after an
other body was brought. It is difficult to
move the ponderous cars. Thousands
flocked to the scene, willing to assist, but
their aid was of very little service where ex-
perienceu men are required. Up to 10
O'Clock q. m. twenty bodies had been taken
out, and the list of injured is now about
fifty.
Brakeman Michael Giilen tells this story:
dow and could see the forward cars being
knocked into the river, and heard the sound
of cracking timber as they ground together,
like kindling wood. l saw the entire side
of the smoking car ahead of mine torn out,
and then turned my back, thinking my
last moment had come. Many of the pas
sengers in our car were screaming and
several Of them had climbed half
way out of the windows. I
shouted to them to keep quiet,
and the next instant our car
was struck and upset down the bank, but
not overturned. Seeing no immediate dan
ger for those in our car, l jumped out into
the river which was about five feet deep.
and worked my way to the forward part Of
the wreck. In one of the wrecked cars
heard man shouting for help. He WAS
not caught and not hurt, but he could not
get out. He was pinned in the car like a
rat in q bog and the wood was blazing all
about him. I secured bucket and began
throwing water on the fire. and ]
think the man was saved. had to
work alone for some time, although
the bank above the wreck, to whom I
shouted tp come and help me. They re-
fused, however, and it was some time be-
fore other help arrived
The body of the unknown man who WAS
among the last taken out of the wreck, was
identified as George Lambert. of Tamaqua.
This places the number of fatalities at
twenty-one. All the wrecked cars we're
taken out of the river tonight and it is
now believed there are no more bodies in
the water and that this ended the death
list. The coroner subpoenaed jury to-day
and will hold an inquest early next week.

PERHAPS THE WRONG MAN.
Arrest of Ben Jones for the Murder Ne
willard Cabin.

BUTTE, Sept. D.-lSpeClRl. deputy
Sheriff Richards came in tonight from the
Silver Bow region, bringing with him Ben
Jones, the man who is suspected of per
petrating the mysterious murder neat
Wizards cabin some days ago. Jones was
found in his camp engaged in rounding up
horses, and was apparently greatly sur
prised when told what he was wanted for.
He had heard of the killing, but did not
know that he was suspected. In general
way Jones answers the description of the
man who did the shooting, but he wears no
goatee as the murderer is supposed to.
Jones also fails to correspond in another
particular. no member Of his party being
missing to correspond with the dead man.
Willard, the informant, will be brought up
tomorrow to identify Jones if possible, but
those best posted here feel confident that
he is the wrong man. So far all search for
the body has been unsuccessful.

JOE MURPHY.

stage-one OF the witty, plucky, noble
hearted peasant farmers, who have
been the heroes of the romance and
song of the Emerald 1sle-and Mr..
Murphy's splendid physique and COM
plete mastery of the brOgue and tricks
Of the Milesian language render him
no mean assistance.
Mr.. George Fawcett Rowe's new
Irish drama, 1.-THE DOnagh, in which
Mr.. Murphy will appear on Monday,
January 20. presents very little that
is novel, but much that is interesting.
The characters familiar to Irish
stories of the present day-the op-
pressed tenant, the naughty landlord,
the wicked agent, the renegade traitor,
a "colleen" or TWO and, of course, a
piper-are all there. The only addition
Is 1.-THE Donagh," and that is intro
duced in the last act and turns out to
be relic of a saint. The third act is
the best in conception. A dastardly
character confesses a murder to the
son of his victim, under the idea that
the latter is priest, and so carefully
is the trying situation presented that
no offense whatever is given to the
most sensitive religious feeling. Mr..
Murphy, of course, introduces several
of his tuneful ballads, and romantic
panorama of the Lakes of Killarney
scenery adds to the strength of the
second act.
