A Pleasant sat Home'' Evening for
Young Women, Etc.
The reception for Miss Reedor, the
Coast Secretary of the Young Women's
Christian Association, was well attended
on Wednesday evening, despite the in
clement weather, and the exercises served
to pass a pleasant evening.
on Thursday, from 5 to o'clock in the
evening, the Secretaries were at home to
their young lady friends, and about thirty
mostly young women away from home
enjoyed a social time at the pleasant
rooms of the association.
The free employment bureau of the
Young Women's Christian Association is
indeed a commendable feature of the
work. There are generally more appli-
cations for work than situations 10 be
filled.
A public anniversary will be held the
early part of this month, when addresses
will be made showing the advancement
the work has made and what it is hoped
will be accomplished in the future for
women.
The gospel meeting at o'clock to-mor-
row will be led by the Captain of the Sal
vation Army, Miss Harmon, An orches-
fra of girls accompanies the singing.
making the song service at the beginning
of the meeting very enjoyable.

L BROKEN LINK DID IT.
Harry McCabe's Right Leg Very Badly
Shattered.
Four Men Severely Injured by an En-
Gine Coupling Which Could Not
Stand the Strain.

A distressing accident occurred near
the railroad bridge yesterday afternoon,
breaking the legs of two men and injur
ing two others severely.
AS the $50 Stockton train was coming
in the rails on the curve where it had
been recently raised spread apart, allow
ing the engine to leave the rails and ploW
through the ground Two engines were
attached to it in order to draw it back on
the track, and as they had considerable
difficulty and consumed some time IN
doing so a crowd gathered to look on.
Henry McCabe, who has been for some
time working for the city, but being now
out of job, had just come over the Yolo
bridge on his return from Washington,
where he had secured work and was to
commence Monday, joined the throng
and was standing about fifty feet from
the engines.
"Yardmaster Martin Halloran stood
about thirty feet from them, giving direc-
tiOns, and the crowd was standing on
both sides Of the track. Suddenly, and
without warning, the big iron link which
connected the engines gave way under
the strain, and one of the pieces flew each
way Win terrific 1OrCe. Ou0 pl6CO,
hurled like a cannon ball, just touched
the hand of Halioran, bruising 1t slightly,
and striking David Larsen, the Assist
and Yardmaster, who stood behind him,
tore piece OF flesh out of the muscles OF
mis- right thigh, struck McCabe. who was
behind him, smashing the large bone OF
his leg midway between the knee and
ankle, and striking man named OCon-
nors Just above the ankle.
The other piece flew through the crowd
on the other side OF the engines, striking
man, whose name was not learned, on
the foot and lnjuring him severely. Lar
sen, O'COnnor and the other man were
taken to the Railroad Hospital and taken
care of, O'Connor's leg, though badly
bruised, being found not 10 be broken.
McCabe, who was the mOstinjured, was
taken to the Receiving Hospital, where
Or. Huntington found the bone was
badly shattered and removed about
dozen pieces, varying from one to two
and a half inches in length, and it is
feared he will have to lose his leg. The
sufferer declined to use ether, and bore
the intense agony OF the operation like
hero, never uttering a groan. lie is well
known in the city, and much sympathy
is expressed Tor him in mis- misfortune,
as he is a steady, hard-wOrking man.

From an unofficial list already prepared *
appears that the District of Columbia Is
