A Sad Accident.

Yesterday morning about O'Clock as
the east bound freight train, number
twenty-eight, was at the gravel quarry,
eight miles this side of Portland, brake
man Frank Tracey fell from freight car
and the trucks passed over his right leg
midway below the knee almost COM
pletely severing it from the body. 1t
appears the engine with four cars at
tached was going down the incline to
the quarry when one of the cars came
against another that was standing at the
end of switch. Whether Tracey was
attempting to jump on the other car and
missed his footing or accidentally fell off
the car he was on is not known, but he
fell between the cars with the above re-
suit. The leg had to be amputated be-
low the knee. Mr.. Tracey is favorably
known in The Dalles where he used to
be Employed in the company's yard. He
is well spoken of by all his fellow en-
ployes. He has wife and family. A
singular thing connected with the ac-
cident IS that when he was picked up his
left shoe was off his foot, though how it
was taken off our informant was unable
(! to guess. The foot itself was only
slightly scratched.

Marshall B. Wilder, the little comic
dwarf, who amuses the British aristo-
Gratis at dinners by his funny stories,
astonished and amused dinner party
in London recently by telling this story
"When Timothy Healy was a boy his
father was in doubt whether to make
him lawyer, parson or a merchant.
So he placed on a table bible, six
pence and an apple and called the boy
in, determining to name the profession
according to the boys choice. Young
Tim came in and saw the articles on the
table. Without hesitation he put the
sixpence between the leaves of the bible
tucked the bible under his arm and be-
gan to eat the apple. That settles it,
exclaimed the HeaIy the elder. IF he
is such hog as that will make poll
tician out of him."

A HANDY ARTICLE.

Messrs. Lockard and Oswald are
the os .ers of patent granted Aug

lock satChel or coat to the car seat
when they wish to go to the smoker,
get off the train for lunch or leave the
car for any purpose. 1t can be used
in the same way at the theatre, thus
securing the seat as we'll as the lug
gage. 1t consists of chain with an
automatic lock, there being no key to
get lost. The Ir ce is $I.oo, and it
is cheap at that price. 1t can conven-
iently be carried in the vest pocket.
A rangements have been made to
manufacture them in large quantities,
a-.d liberal discount will be given to

be several weeks before he can WALL.
Fortunately he is convalescing com
fortably, although it might have re-
sul-ed fatally.

Some damage was done at the
Carpet Mill, and at Mears' Factory.
AT the latter place the water was over
the boiler in the engine house, and the
