street just about the time a freight
train was passing north, and colli-
sion occurred in which the locomo-
tive, as usual, came out best. A steer
belonging to Mr.. Allen Entler had
two legs cut off. and one of Mr..
Myers's cows was so badly injured
that it had to be killed. The below

House RAIDED.-The town was
unduly excited Saturday and Sunday
over the destruction of the Belts
shanty on South street running down
towards Bakers lime works. Notice
of warning had been sent the family
several times, and Saturday night
about % or 80 men with ropes and
axes pulled the house to pieces, the
inmates getting out and off in all di-
rections. The house belonged TO Col.
Nadenboush, and he IS glad 10 get a
chance to put up new building. The
inmates were "A man and wife and
several women, who have long been
charged with keeping a disorderly
house, fighting, drinking, &c. They
acre poor set of people, and in very
destitute condition as the scanty fur
niture and worn clothing attest. The
effects were still lying around Sunday
and crowds of people went there fol
the excitement and curiosity. The
family found lodging with some color
ed people. 1t will help to clear the
moral atmosphere of the lowest cir
ccles, but better plan would have
been TO make affidavit and proceed
by the lawful course.
