FURNACE NOTES.

The weigh scales ct the smelters has
been housed, in view of the coming
winter.
Mr.. Nickerson has taken the place of
Mac Waite as engineer of the locomo.
tive
Two new houses are being built, one
for the chief engineer and the other for
the night foreman.
The cold snap appears to have fright
ened away almost all the usual visitors
and but few now put in an appearance,
The new engine that contributes the
whole of the driving power for the new
works, only consumes about cords of
wood during the "a hours.
Mr. w. Harris, the sampler, with his
o!her duties, now oversees the unloading
of the ore cars and conveyance Of the
ore to their respective bins.
A good supply of coke is now on
hand and more daily arriving. Should
the bad weather suddenly set in and the
roads become bad, enough is on hand to
ran the smelters some time.
AS regards economy everything in and
about the works is utilized. All the fine
charcoal dust not suited for the smelter
is used in the development Of steam.
The sawmill has been temporarily
shut down owing to defective boiler.
1t will be repaired in few days and re-
sumo operations. Since closing down
the wood for the locomotive has been
cut by hand.

A WISE APPEAL.
winter is Coming on. The Warm
Library Fire. with Brilliant Light
and Mental Food att. nding Doors
open 20 all.

While the races have smoothly passed
by without giving the expected pleasure
which generally accompanies such sport,
It Is to be hoped that none will fall
through disappointment into a state of
dormancy but to awaken to local frame
OF mind and resume the operations OF
affairs. which are to their best interest
and advantage. The best method
through which we may pervade this
difficulty, is by thorough cleaning of
our pastimes and combining them to a
more profitable element. The season is
nigh at hand, when our outdoor sports
will be out of the question. We will at
times be compelled to retreat to the com.
forts OF the hearth, which, with abund.
ant literature, will afford many evenings
of real pleasure, as well as amusement,
through the winter. We cannot utilize
our leisure moments any better than in
course OF advantageous reading. No
doubt every considerate person recog.
nlzes the fact, that library is one of the
most imperative resorts that any locality
can support. Through this great medi-
UNI we can acquire unlimited informa.
tion, that cannot be had in any other
way. Ii such be the case, why not con.
slider our local library's advantages.
Having many volumes of the most au.
thentlc nature, composed by the greatest
authors of the age. No time could be
thrown away perusing their pages. Any
member is allowed either to take books
from the library or enjoy few hours
with them every evening by the warm
fire and brilliant light always attending.
Strangers are frequently lead to believe
by uniformed persons that the Phoebe
Library is only for the benefit of GER
tain class. That is entirely erroneous.
The doors are impartially open to all.
Make inquiries, read the bylaws and
Judge for yourself whether it will be to
your advantage to obtain membership
or not.

The A. D. U. WIS Ball TO be an
Event of the Season.
The grand ball to be given under the
auspices of Phoebe Lodge, No. &c, A. o.
U. w. gives promise of being an event
OF the season. No time or pains are be.
ing spared to make everything huge
success. The care taken in the selection
of music resulted in getting a greater
variety than usual. and the best quality
that Phoebe affords.
The committee on arrangements have
not as yet decided where the supper will
be had, but in all probability it will be
deemed advisable, on account of location
advantage, to give "China Dick" a
chance of again doing the square thing
he has done on prior occasions.
Price was not considered in getting
the best that the RECORD could turn out
in the way Of invitation cards and tick.
cts, and were it not for blowing its own
horn, the RECORD would intimate that
"they were dandies"
Don't forget the invitations are to be
presented at the post Office where the
tickets can be bought. The Lodge is
doing its best, so let us do our parts,
partake of the festivities, and trip the
light fantastic. The REooR acknowl.
edges the receipt of invitation.

AN UGLY WRECK.
Three Persons Killed in a
Railway Collision.
A Score Injured, Some of
whom will Die.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Witnessed
in the Telescoped Coaches.
A Fearful Wreck.

AKRON, o., Sept. 3O.-Early this
morning a collision occurred a mile east
of Kent on the New York, Pennsylvania
& Ohio road between a freight and pas
senger train. Three persons were killed
and twenty wounded, several fatally. The
passenger was the Michigan section of the
Olin family excursion, the members of
which and many friends were going to the
national reunion of their kindred at Ben
ington, VT 1t was a foggy night and
the collision occurred on a long fill thirty
feet high. in the middle of which was a
bridge sixty feet high over the Pittsburg
& Western tracks. Part of the passenger
train was on the bridge when the crash
came. The engines ploughed into each
other, reared high into the air and the
cars on either side were crushed together
like cardboard.
Travelling Engineer William D.. Max
well, Fireman Glass and one passenger,
an old lady, Mrs. Delay of Richiand
Mich, were instantly killed. The other
engine crews escaped serious injury by
jumping. The baggage car and first and
second coaches were telescoped. the In
terror OF the cars being only a mass of
wreckage in which the unfortunate pas
sengers were entaDgled. A stove IN the
second coach was overturned and the
timber took fire. Mrs. Alice Sedgwlck,
with both legs broken. lay close to the
red hot stove. pushing against it with all
her might to keep it from crushing and
burning her little daughter who lay Just
by her. The mothers clothing was
burned off and one side of her body
roasted. Close to her lay Laura Van
Anken, a frail girl of IL years, who was
doing a like service tor her mother, laying
almost under the stove, her arms pinioned
and broken.
Rescuers, however, soon succeeded in
breaking into the car aud extinguished
tt e flames with water from the tanks.
For half an hour men worked lifting
out women and children, many of them
with legs and arms dangling helplessly.
AS fast as taken out the injured were
transferred to sleeping cars and taken
back to Kent, where they received medi
cal and surgical attention. Miss A. NJ.
johnson of Muskegon. Mich, Mn.
Alice M. Sedgwick of Parma, Mich, and
Mrs. G. G. Thompson of Montague,
Mich. will die. The others injured are:
Mrs. G. A. Buell. and daughter, Nellie
Stanford, G. G. Thomson, Mary

Dusky Valet and White Maid.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,, Sept. 30.-Wyatt
Roberts, the trusted valet and constant
companion for many years of the late p.
I. Barnum, is believed ia have eloped
with Miss Clara Lewis, the pretty little
English maid who for a year and a half
has waited upon Mrs. Barnum. Al
though Roberts Is a colored man, he is of
very light complexion, is we'll educated
and of stylish appearance. He was
faithful to the veteran Snowman for
thirteen years. and always accompanied
him on trips abroad and in this country.
During Mr.. Barnum's illness Roberts
rarely left the bedside of his employer
and benefactor, and when the long will
was read there was a clause found which
provided a generous portion Of money
inc real estate for the trusted valet.
Roberts is 40 years old. Miss Lewis is
%, and speaks with a pronounced cock
ney accent. The two were thrown cum
stantlyl into each others society while
travelling over a good part of Europe with
Mrs. Barnum, and Roberts was not long
In winning Clara's affections.
Their love was kept a secret from Mrs.
Barnum, and not until recently were her
suspicious aroused. To avoid a scandal
she. Immediately discharged the valet,
and on Friday last Roberts took all his
personal property and left for New York.
On Saturday Miss Lewis announced her
intention OF Joining her lover and took a
late train for the city. This evening Mrs.
Barnum was i'll and would not see a re-
porter, but Mrs. Pikeman, the house
keeper, admitted hat the couple had left
Marina not to return. Mrs. Pikeman
said: Roberts dismissal was tor good
and sufficient personal reasons, which
Mrs. Barnum declines to state for publ
cation. | do not think Mrs. Barnum was
aware of the intimacy Of the couple before
she ave Roberts notice to leave. When
Clara was informed of her lovers dIsmis.
sal she at announced her intention OF
joining him, and would not listen to ad-
vice from Mrs. Barnum and myself. She
confessed that she could not live without
him, and we believe they are now to-
Rether."

distance from Nine. de Bonnemain's
tomb. suddenly heard a sharp report in
that direction. Running to the spot the
attendant found Gen. B%oulanger living
dead upon the ground with a revolver
cllnched in his right hand. A hasty
examination of the body showed that the
dead man had placed the Weapon to his
right ear and fired the fatal shot.
The generals position, financial and
political, has. 1t it is generally admitted,
been getting blacker and blacker of recent
months. He had no hopes for the future,
and his remaining friends were becoming
colder as the once famous general dropped
more and more out of public notice.
There is no doubt the general was con-
scious of these facts and that they preyed
upon his mind. Coupled to this was the
morbid love or lnfatuation which he had
for his dead mistress, to whom he was
undoubtedly greatly attached. as is evi-
denced by his %renouncIng what might
have been an important political career in
order to fv with her from France.
1t is an open question as to what would
have happened in France had the general
chosen to face imprisonment and political
upheaval instead of preferring the safe
sunshine of Nine. de Bonnemain's favor.
The revelations made by M. Laguerre, the
well known Boulangist member of the
Deputies. subsequent to Gen. Boulanger's
fight. show hat he had held relations with
the Count de Paris, with Prince Jerome
NAPOLEON and that the Duchess D'Uses,
n OF the most ambitious and active
members of the Royalist party, had sent
10000, 600 francs in advancing the cause
of the man who has Just taken his own
life oyer the tomb OF his mistress. Lord
Randolph Churchill, the Marquis de
Breulil and the sou Of Duchess buses,
and the Due de Lynnes were also at one
time warmly interested in Gen. Boulan-
gers fortune.
This evening his friends admit that re-
Gently he frequently openly avowed his
desire for death. and it is even added that
the general several times of late made an
attempt to take his own life. The conse-
quence has been he has been watched
closely as possible by the friends who re.
NAMED loyal. Even thew, however, ap
pear to have grown tired Of their task
and warned the generals niece and the
%latter's husband. The niece and husband
arrived a few days ago and the first thing
they did was to cause all weapons to be
taken away and hidden. Gen. Boulanger
must have noticed the precautions and
managed to secure and hide a pistol with
which he shot himself.
B~oulanger, according to the stories told
this evening, made no secret of his weari-
ness OF hte since Il collapse of his party
and particularly SO since the death of
Nine. deBonnemaiu. HIS friends now
recall the fact that when the coffin lid was
finally closed over the remains of his mis-
tress he kept on repeating aloud IN heart
