A Train Accident.

lad about fourteen years old, named
Geo. Dayton, whose father lives in Port
land, came near losing his life last night
by jumping off a passenger train short
distance west of the trestle that spans
Mill creek. The boys story is that he
got on the train intending to go to the
next station. When the conductor came
along he asked him for his ticket, and
the boy said, 'I've got none.'' ''Then,"
said the conductor, ''you had better get
off, The boy did SO, and in the fall his
arm was broken near the wrist; there is
is slight confusion on the forehead and
one of his eyes is badly blackened. He
made his way back to the Umatifla
house, where Col. Sinnott took care of
him and called in DIR. o. D. Doane, the
company's physician, to attend to his
injuries. Colonel Sinnott telegraphed to
the lads father in Portland and received
answer to have him properly cared for
till his mother would arrive, if it were
found necessary that she come up and
see him. The lad worked all day in the

pected back this morning.

The Benefit Tonight.

When Mr.. John Jack, of the John
Jack and Annie Firmin Theatrical com
pany, heard of the great fire in The
Dalles, being then at Ilwaco, he imme-
diateiy telegraphed to Astoria, offering
benefit for the relief of the sufferers.
The Astorians were then at work raising
subscription for the same purpose and
they did not think the benefit necessary.
Mr.. Jack, still anxious to do something
to add to the funds of the relief commit
tee, has cancelled an assignment which
had been fixed for tonight in Goldendale,
in order that he might take advantage
of the large number of persons attending
the circus. Half of the gross receipts
will be given to the relief committee and
Mr.. Jack bears all the expenses. This
will give an opportunity to all who de-
sire it, to contribute to the funds of the
Relief committee and to have the enjoy
ment of an excellent entertainment at
the same time.
