Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD. !
CHICAGO, January 23.-A husband and
wife were slain outright this afternoon
while attending the funeral OF their
child. The driver of their conveyance,
and neighbor driving with them, were
fatally injured, and died in few min
utes. Mr.. and Mrs. Frederick Payne
were the unfortunate parents. Simon
Anderson was the name of the hackman,
and Mrs. Reynolds was the neighbor.
Just as the carriage reached the gate OF
Rose Hill cemetery where the road
crosses the railway track, the Chicago
express on the Northwestern road
dashed upon it, utterly wrecking it and
throwing the unfortunate victims 80 feet
away. The -,ear-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Payne miraculously escaped
with slight scalp wound. The driver
and engineer are each censured for q
lack of care, but the absence of flag
man at the crossing (none being kept
there by the railway company eeems to
have been the principal cause of the
horror, as the view Of engineers and car
riage drivers is shut off almost, if not
wholly, by the Rose Hill railroad station
and group of saloons.

NORWICH, N. Y, May s. 8.-Georgia
Dibble and her pipe caused the loss of
thirteen lives in the Chenange county
poor house last night at midnight. She
was an inmate of the insane ward, and
after finishing her pipe she put it in her
pocket. Her clothing caught fire, and
from them the fire spread until the
flames enveloped the whole building.
So fierce was the heat and so rapidly
had the fire spread that the keepers were
compelled to retreat to save themselves.
A few of the idiots, babbling and jab-
boring, ran with the keepers, who cried
the alarm as they went. Some of the
patients were so badly burned that they
fell to the ground as soon as they reached
place of safety.
There are still considerable number
of violent patients in the woods. Most
of those who escaped had been kept in
the closest confinement on account of
the peculiar nature of their maladies,
and it is not at all safe for them to be at
large. The posse of the sheriff is scour-
ing the entire country in search of the
fugitives. Two of the seven who were
captured were found five miles away and
resisted vigorously before they allowed
themselves to be re-taken. Thirteen
perished in the flames. The loss on the
building is $4,000.

Lexington Dispatchl
Little Jesse Mclean Stockton, whose
mother lives near Michael, was the VIC
tim Of a very sad and fatal accident last
Wednesday about 12 o'clock, by falling
into we'll. It seems that the little fell
low had climbed upon a milk box,
which sat behind the windlass, and
from that he climbed to the box curb.
He is supposed to have then moved the
light covering from the well and peeped
in, and while in the act lost his balance
and fell headlong He had been missed
only about five minutes when search
was instituted for him and signs dis
covered which caused the searchers to
believe that he was in the well. The
neighbors came in and recovered the
child, while Mr.. Addison Wood came
for the mother, who was in Lexington,
and who was almost heart-broken when
the sad news reached her.
