A. Mothers Affection.


Several weeks ago. Thomas Doyle met
with an accident Oh the railroad, near
Clifton, which necessiJated the ampnta-
ton of a leg. He was wanderer, and
had traversed various states anG secs
tons. and been absent from his nome
for twelve wears His mother, living IN
St. Paul Mimi. being Informed OF the
misfortune to her son, mortgaged her
property to secure money, and with iler
daughter arrived in Clifton on Tuesday,
to be with her son and care for him.
Both the mother and daughter are IN
telIigent people, and manifest the ut
most solicitude for the manned young
man. Miss Doyle left for st. Paul on
monday last, while the mother remains,
until her son is in a condition to travel;
which it is thought viii be the case next
SATURDAY., when she will go westward,
with her maynard offspring. She had
not seen him for twelve years, and no
one but 81 mother can adequately
appreciate the feeling at the meeting
under such sad circumstances.

Serious ACCIDENT.


Last Saturday several persons from
this place went to Mountain Top to at
tend a Fourth of-July picnic or barbe-
cue at that place. Among the number
were Messrs VIM. Bird and Benjamin
MoseIy. The latter had been up at Noun
tain Top. and started to walk back to
the station at Basic City. On the way
he met Bird going up in a buggy. and
the latter proposed to turn back and
drive the former part OF the way down
After they had gone short distance the
team became frightened and ran away.
Mosely, in attempting to get from the
back seat to the front i'll order TO assist
in holding the horses, WAS thrown out
and knocked insensbie for some time.
A short distance further Bird was thrown
out also, receiving several gashes about
the head, and has been lying in a criti-
cal condition at Basic City since. The
last report received here night before
last is to the effect that he was thought
to be some better, though not out OF
danger Mosely escaped with sprained
ankle and is able to walk around.
