HE ACCEPTS ANOTHER GIFT
HHY THE PRESIDENT WILL SPEND
AUGUST At ericsson SPRTNGh

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company he's
offered Him Ono OF the Prettiest Cot.
taEes. and He hns Accepted the Oher.
WAsHINGToN, July 9.-From Cape May Point
thero comes q piece OF gossip regarding tho
change OF plan by which the President, instead
OF going to Deer Park as he expected to UP to
month ago, will spend August at Cresson
Springs on the Pennsylvania Railroad. Last
year the President and Mrs. Harrison put In
very pleasant summer in cottage at Deer
Park. not far from the residences Of the Hon.
Stephen B. Elkins and the Hon. Henry G.
DRvis OF West Virginia, and the family Of
the latter became very intimate with the
Administration. In the Davis family was
Lieut. r. NJ. G. Brown, U. s. N, who married
q daughter OF tho ex-senator from West Nir-
glnia. and had besides distinguished himself
aboard the Trenton during the disaster at
Samoa. He was navigator Of that Inflated
vessel, and through his efforts and skill In
seamanship tho crew OF tho vessel came out
safely from their terrible ordeal Under such
circumstances the President felt himself in
duty bound to order Lieut.. Brown to WASH
inRton and he was assigned for service to the
Judge Advocates office. When the Presi-
dents family went to Deer Park for the sum-
mer Lieut. Brown was not much behind them,
and during the visit OF the President no one
was moro assiduous In his attentions or moro
popular with every visitor TO the Presidents
cottage than Lieut.. Brown.
Nothing further was said about honors for
the Lieutenant until q few weeks ago. when
Mr.. Davis urged that he should he advanced
on the naval list thirty numbers. This request
did not find favor with the President. and he
told the friends OF the Lieutenant So greatly
to their disappointment Up to this time
everything was moving along smoothly as far
as Deer Park was concerned, for the President
is very fond OF the mountains, and his cottage
last summer was as comfortable as could be
desired Officials of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company announced that the Presi-
dent and his family would be with them again.
and about six weeks ago Mrs. Harrison made
similar declaration to party OF friends Since
the Brown episode the President thought 1t
would not be 80 pleasant at Deer Park this
summer as 1t was last year, And the facts were
not long In coming TO the knowledge Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad. Accordingly they
rendered one Of the prettiest cottages at
Cresson for the use OF the President and his
family this year and the offer was accepted
There Is not the same cordially between the
President and the Davis family that formerly
existed and all because Of the failure to give
Lieut. Brown what he was thought to have
earned by his heroism at a critical time when
q mRn-of-war was being wrecked on coral
reef In the Bay OF Apia

PennsylVAnIn Train.

As the train which left Philadelphia on the
Pennsylvania Railroad at O'Clock yesterday
afternoon reached point about half way be-
tween Bristol and Tullytown 1t ran into
furious gale and thunder storm. The train
was spinning along at q high rate Of speed
whom bolt OF lightning struck telegraph
pole just ahead OF 1t. and an instant later poles
began topping over on the track until thirteen
Of them lay In the path Of the train. Tho
engineer reversed his lever rs quickly as pos
sible, but the distance was too short and
the engine crashed into the tanRle OF
wire and broke two OF the poles. The pilot
and headlight OF the engine were smash
ed, but the train remained on the rails and
10 further damage was done. While the crew
was clearing tho tracks two other trains
reached the spot, and their crows, together
with some section hands, worked In the pour
Ing rain and had the tracks free OF poles and
wires in about an hour. Meanwhile. lightning
struck two barns near tho tracks, and they
were burned. At ono time tho tangled mass OF
wires over the track and train glowed with
electric fire. and this dsmayed tho trainmen
who had to clear them away. Nlppers were
found and the wires we're cut FREQ from the
roles and thrown into the ditch The train
was nearly two hours late at Jersey City.
lightning also knocked the tops of several
chimneys In Paterson yesterday, killed New
