A VERY SAD ACCIDENT.
Mr.. Ambrose s. List thrown from
Buggy on the Island Yesterday
And POSSIBLY FATALLY INJURED.
In Making n Short Turn tho Vehicle
is overturned and Its Driver thrown
out on his Hend---Thc Horse then
runs away and Is Somewhat Injured.

Avery sad accident happened early
yesterday afternoon by which Mr.. Am
brosc S. List, vice president Of tho City
Bank, received injuries 80 serious that
1t can not yet DO told whether hc can
recover or not. Ho was driving across
the Island toward Ohio, and Just as hc
approached the corner OF Virginia and
South Huron streets no cav IN electric
car approaching. Desiring to get out Of
the way before tho car passed, he
whipped up his horse and started to
make quick turn into Huron street.
In doing SO the buggy was thrown up
with one side on stone at the corner
oil tho sidewalk curbs, throwing Mr..
List out.
Hc struck on his head and was rem
dcred unconscious. Tho horse took
fright at the accident and started TO run
ut n mad speed up the street. He was
caught after colliding with post and
injuring himself pretty severely.
Mr.. List was picked up and carried
into tho house OF Mr.. Mcl'adden. not far
oil, and DR.. Myers summoned. Tho in
iurcd NAH lay unconscious for perhaps
hall hour. In The meantime Drs.
Bates and Reed were also called in,
and the three physicians made m OK
animation. after putting Mr.. List under
tho influence OF annsthetics. They
found his skull fractured, bad cash
over one eye, and he was splitting blood.
When he hal somewhat rallied, and
all that could be done to make his suf-
fcrings rs light rs possible was done,
he was removed to the home OF his
father, Mr.. Henry X. List, at S27 Main
street. The doctors said it was i'm
possible to tell just how grave result
was to be expected. 1t seemed about
an even chance that he might recover,
unless some more serious development
set in within n day or, two. His lace
was swollen badly where cut, and the
brain seemed to be somewhat Affected
by tho blow.
Mr.. Lists sister, Miss Hettie, had re.
Gently gone to Delaware, Ohio, to at
tend the wedding OF her cousin, Miss
Morrison, and she was to be Joined in a
day or two by her father and mother.
She was telegraphed last evening to re-
turn home. A telcgram was also sent

shoyels, which scoopcd out u cubic
yard Of earth at one scoop, five small
locomotives to haul the cars out on the
high trestles, and several hundred OF
the dump cars, there was employed the
labor OF from $50 TO 800 men. The first
work was done in August, 1890, and the
grading was completed October /, 1891.
LAYING THE MILES OF TRACKS.
There are to DO in this yard over forty
tracks, OF IN average length Of seven.
cighths OF n mile each, SO that 1t will
contain in the neighborhood OF thirty
five miles OF track. There are several
drilling" tracks, that is, main tracks
from which tho switches or spur tracks
radiatc. OF those tho greater part are
done, and majority OF tho switches are
also done or nearly so. Saturday when
nm lSTELLIdgScEg reporter went over
the ground there was large force OF
track layers at work, and the rails were
growing out along the lines OF tics at q
rapid rate. The engineer in charge said
the work would be done much more
rapidly but for the unavoidable delay
in getting ballast upon the ground. It
Is expected that the laying OF tracks will
occupy three or four weeks yet, and that
every thing but the extensive buildings
will be complete and ready for use by
Christmas. Some OF tho track room Is
already in constant use, and even in its
incomplete condition the yard proves Il
decided increase OF the facilities OF the
company for handling freight trains.
Saturday three or four switching en-
gincs were busy shifting cars and max
ing up trains OH the now tracks, and
there were several hundred freight cars
IN the eastern part OF the yard. When
all done this yard will be used as the
terminal yard OF all tho divisions center
ing here, for which tho terminal work
has heretofore been divided between
Wheeling, Bellairc, and Benwood, and
what the new double trackd loop does
for the benefit OF thu passenger service,
the new yards do for the freight traffic
OF the company, and between tho two
there are few more complete division
terminal facilities in the country.
BUILDINGS TO GO UP.
Be sides the passenger station already
referred to rs about to be erected at the
junction OF the main line and the loop,
there are number OF other substantial
and extensive buildings to be con-
structed, and while it is not probable
that these or any great part of them can
be finished this season, they will all be
done carly in the next year Work
will commence rs soon as the plans are
received from the office OF the chief en-
gincer in Baltimore. There will be
round house with twenty-four stalls,
large repair and smith shops, coal
tipple, q large turn table, water works
and division office building OF roomy
character. The work OF excavating for
the turn table pit was begun Saturday.
Things look very lively about the
junction and in the thriving little
town OF McMechcn, which owes its sud-
den access OF Importance to the 3. & o.
company's preparations for doing q
large business there. 1t is worth any,

press purpose OF inspecting them.

THE SOLDIERS IDEAL.
Lessons in Devotion and Daring From
the Army.

Lessons In Devotion ana Daring From
the Army.
In the arms, with its vague and few
and distant rewards, there may be and
there are rivalries in devotion and dar-
ing, but there is no competition for
place and money as there is in civil life,
and yet the soldiers ideal being duty,
the performance of duty seems sufficient.
1t is state of things which can suggest
much to those who are fond of battling
the hope of better things in us with the
assertion that it is contrary to human
nature to act from any but interested
and selfish motives. Human nature is
great mystery, and we have not yet
begun to solve it; but it appears that
number of men drawn at random from
society and trained to belief in duty
as the chief good, will keep on not only
living it but dying it. We civilians talk
much, we almost talk solely of our
rights but in the army it seems that
men talk chiefly of their duties, when
they talk at all, and never of their
rights These things are true of all
ranks; the ideal is the same from the
private to the general and it seems to
correct all the mistaken tendencies of
the time before they became soldiers
If, as Ruskin has fancied, the army
should ever serve us as the norm of the
civil state and we should come to have
''soldiers of the plowshare as well as
soldiers of the sword" it might not be
loug before we should be told that it
was against human nature to act sell
fishly, and that to be recreant to the
general welfare in any aim or deed was
to be guilty Of conduct unbecoming a
citizen and gentleman. However this
may be, it is certain and it is significant
that those who have attempted to dream
out future brighter than this present
have always had something like mill
tary organization in their eyes; but
these Missionaries have somehow beheld
little of the gaiety and enjoyment which
are quite as compatible with the per-
Torrance of duties as with the assertion
of rights.-W. d. Howells, in Harper's
Magazine.
