Something New in Shears.

It is not often that an apparently use
full innovation in the art Of scissor or
shear manufacture is heard of and doubt
leFs for that reason we have become apt
to consider these indispensable adjuncts
to civilization as probably unimprovable
instruments. In a new kind of shears
which has been brought on the market
by an ingenious mechanician, the cutting
blades are connected by a capsule, in
which a simple lever movement on the
closing Of the instrument, causes the one
blade to be drawn under by the other.
The lower cheek then acts as a support,
and the upper cheek as knife, which
sewers the object on the support. Com
pared with the orthodox scissors a much
greater efficiency is Gained for the new
form Of shears.--Iron.

A Ernnl r.Sade.

Near Colmar. in Alsac-, Germany, an
experiment of an unusual kind was sue
cessfully made a few months ago. The
town is surrounded by vineyards, and for
several seasons past the young vines have
suffered severely from frost. This year
the vine dressers formed a union TO pro-
fect themselves against their enemy-an
enemy which 1t might appear impossible
TO combat. The frosts most dreaded
are those which come after the vines
have begun TO grow, when a cold dew,
coDgea!lng upon the delicate young
shoots, may inflict irreparabIe injury.
The Colmar vine-grOwers learned that
by producing in the vineyards artificial
fog of certain degree of density, the
condensation of dew and its transforma-
ton into the fatal hoar frost could be
prevented.
Mist or fog may be produced artitc-
tally in several ways, and after having
decided upon the one that would be the.
most convenient, they organized them
selves into body, pledged to hasten to
the rescue of the vines at given signal.
Each man knew his post, and one was
appointed TO act as sentinel every night.
His watch began at sunset. He noted
the least change in the weather, and at
the first sign of approaching frost
fastened to a certain church and gave
the alarm by ringing the bells, as for
FIRE.
The chosen band Immediately hurried
into their clothes, rushed to their APP
pointed positions and passed the night
in mist and darkness, raising mysterious
clouds and coiling vapors, like so many
modern magicians. Their labors some
times lasted until an hour after sunrise.
They preserved their organization and
kept their watchmen posted until the
last Of May. They feel assured that the
harvest of the coming autumn will prove
them to have gained a substantial vic
tory over their silent and elusive antag
onist. and expect henceforth to renew
the fight with every year. Hoar frost is
nolonger to be permitted in the vineyard

SEVEN WE'RE KILLED.
Fatal Collision on the Reading Near
Philadelphia.

The Shamokin express, on the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad, which is due in Pnila-
delphia, Penn, at $50 p. M. ran into
train OF empty coal cars, a short distance
north Of West Manayunk Tunnel, about
eight miles north of at city, at few
minutes past o'clock in the morning.
Seven persons were killed outright, nine
teen injured persons were taken TO st.
Timotny's Hospital at Peterborough and
several others were treated at other PLACES.
The Shamokin express lett Pottsvlle,
Penn, at O'CLOCK. AT Pnoeni1ville orders
dated Reading were received to run on the
northbound track from West Conshohocken
to West Falls, a distance of only a few
miles. regardless of all other trains,
which was done. The train was composed
of FIVE cars inclu ling a Pullman parlor
car. The southbound track was blocked
with freight cars, and to this fact is primar-
ily due the catastrophe. Train No. 53S OF
empty coal cars started north from West
Manayunk on the northern track shortly
before O'Clock.
The two trains came together right on
curve at two minutes past O'clock with
terrible crash. Inc express was comfort
ably filed with passengers. The englneo
literally ploughed their way th1 ough eact
other, and rolled over on tteir sides in one
conglomerate mass OF shattered ma
chinery The greatest force OF the collision
occurred between the smoking car and the
passenger coach next to it. Tha smoker
teiescoped its way into the other coach fully
,one-half it's length, and how any one who
was in either car escaped death is a mys-
terry
The baggage car caught fire ana was soon
burned up. The next two cars kept the
track, although they telescoped together All
were almost completely demolished. Except
tor scratches and bruises, the passengers Ill
the last two cars all escaped unhurt.
AS the engines approached each other, the
engineer, Billig, the conductor, Gerlacher,
and the fireman. G aliagher, of the coal
train, all jumped and escaped with injuries.
Conductor Hamilton at ono. collected a
staff of helpers and soon had the dead and
wounded out Of the wreck. The injured
were quickly taken away, and soon row of
seven dead bodies were laid out on the
side of the road, battered and torn al
most beyond the hope OF recognition.
Word was sent Immediately in several
directions for medical aid, and in a short
time a staff of physicians were on hanI
looking after the injured who could not be
Immediately removed in the ambulance.
AS soon as the wounded had all
been attended to they were removed in am
buiances; those who could go home or come
to the city going to trains, and the others to
adjacent hospitals. The dead were taken to
the city police station at Manayunk.

FATAL COLLAPSE.
A Bridge Gives Way and the Work.
men Fall Sixty Feet.

An appalling accident occurred to a ganS
of workmen who were doing some construc-
ton work on the line Of the Great Northern
Railroad in Washin yton, resulting in the
death of seven of the men. the fatal injury
OF five more and the serious injury of six
others.
The men were employed by Shepard, Sims
& Co.. and had finished the track to the
Wenatchee River. They then started to lay
rails across the stream. The east approach
and the first span were crossed safely.
when the middle OF the second span was
reached the false work under the bridge
collapsed, and the track machine, to-
gether with two car loads of ties and
timber and several cars loaded with
ralIS, Tell to the river, sixty feet
below. The workmen were thrown in
every direction, and some of them were
buried under ties AMI rails. The water in
the river was about three feet deep and ran
through solid rock channel Conductor
John Leonard, of st. Paul, was standing at
the emf of his train when the accident &C.
Cured. His body was afterward found
with heavy rail lying across his head and
another across his feet holding him under
water.
The accident was due to the under mining
of the false work of the bridge by the water
That part OF the road on which it occurred
is still under the control of the contra ctors
and has not yet been accepted by the rail-
road company.
No intimation of the catastrophe was given
to the unfortunate men. All were busy with
their respective duties when the bridge
shook. tottered and finally collapsed
entirely, dasning them against the solid
rock below. Six fat cars and an engine
were on the the bridge at the time
The engine was uncoupIed, luckily for some
OF the injured. because the horror of
roasting to death would have been added, to
the distressing accident The temporary
structure was supported by piles driver in
the gravel ami in such a way that each
span depended on the other, hence both
spans are now a mass of broken timber at
the bottom of the gully.
