THE ACCIDENT RECORD.
A ROANs COUNTY CATTLE DEALER STRUCK
BY AN Engine.
An Eighth Ward Boy Struck by Street Cara
Party Dragged from in Front Of an En-
gine-Oihsr hishapS Of
Yesterday.

Last evening about seven o'clock there
was very narrow escape from fatal
ity on the "Pewiky" trestIe, near the
foot of Twenty first street.
Two Roane county men had brought
a lot OF cattle to the city, aud they un-
loaded some of the baggage from the
freight train, just south OF the creek, at
the time named. One of them moved
off the tre<le, while the other,
A. B. Looney of Tariff, re-
NAMED getting his effects together.
While he was thus engaged the yard
engine came along, and before the
drover could get out of the way, or even
realize his danger, he was struck and
thrown from the track. The engine
was stopped, as soon as possible, and
the wounded man was picked up and
removed TO the east side OF Water
street, where il was seen he was
badly hurt. The police were
informed, and the patrol wagon being
summoned, the victim was removed to
the City Hospital, where medical aid
was soon available. Mr.. Looney had
two wounds on the head, and also ap-
peared to be hurt internally in the re-
gion Of the abdomen. Neither the po-
lice nor the people at the hospital ap.
peared to know who the wounded man
was last evening, and al ten o'clock the
report came from the Hospital that the
patient was unconscious. The compan-
ion Of the wounded man said he had
made the latter buy an accident policy
before starting on the trip.

Struck by a Motor.

Charlie, aged eleven years, the son Of
Isaac Powell, the well-known Riverside
employe, of Forty-frst and Wood streets,
met with bad accident yesterday even
ing. The little fellow was on the street
car tracks aud was struck by an uptown
motor. 1t was not known last night
just how badly be was hurt, but there
are evidences of internal injury. A
crowd of probably dozen boys were at
the corner Of Fortv-frst and Wood
streets, playing the game of ball called
sock" Young Powell was running
from another boy who had the ball.
The boys did not see street car No. 80,
which was coming up the street at a
rapid rate OF speed. The mo-
torman could not get the car
under control before it struck the
boy. The lad was struck first on the
leg, and then fell back against the car,
striking his head. He was then hurled
from the tracks. The injured boy was
carried TO his home in an unconscious
condition, and remained so for half
hour. DR.. w. E. Stathers was called
and gave the medical attention. IL was
found that none of the bones had been
broken, but the boys face, hands and
back OF the head were badly bruised.
The doctor was not able to state last
night whether or not the boy had suf-
fered internal injury. How the little
fellow escaped death is mystery.

the acts are crowded with specialties,
so many in fact that space forbids de-

A rare treat is promised lovers OF the
legitimate at the Opera House tonight,
when Robert Downing, supported by
Eugene Blair and an excellent company
will prasent Serbian Knowles master
piece "Virginius." Perhaps 10 TRACE

act the role OF Virginius than Mr..
Downing. Miss Blair is a beautiful
woman and an accomplished actress,
who has risen to her eminent position
in the theatrical profession by meritor-

Cold and Electricity.

That extreme cold paralyzes every
vital function is Of course piece OF
everyday knowledge. But it has
been left to Professor Pictet, who
has been conducting some expert
ments on this subject, to discover
that at temperature Of 1870 degrees
below the centigrade zero there is no
chemical action between nitric or
sulphuric acid and potash, between
oxygen and potassium, though, TN
der ordinary circumstances, the af-
fnity of the latter metal for oxygen
is so great that twill burn if thrown
into water, owing to its combination
with the oxygen in that fluid. But
if the electric spark is played Oh bod
les which have thus lost the power
Of chemical affinity, some new and
curious combinations result. The
latest Investigations, tho conclusions
of which, however, have been theo-
retically presaged for some years
past, may require us toreconsider tho
question Of tho temperature Of outer
space and the possibility of an at
mosphere composed Of gases in COM
bination existing there.

replied the girl, ushering the visitor
into the dining room, But instead
of leaving him alone she rang for an
other servant, whom she desired to
bring writing materials.
The gentleman wrote his note, en-
closed it in an envelope, addressed it
and left it on the table.
This being done, he departed with

Tho Tower Of Pisa,

Tho famous leaning tower Of Pisa
is campanile or bell tower. The
building, which is cylindrical in
form, is 1917 feet high and so feet in
diameter, made entirely OF white
marble. 1t is called the leaning tow
er from the fact that it inclines some
SO feet from the perpendicular, and
it is not generally known that this
inclination, which gives tho tower
such a remarkable appearance, was
not intentional. At the time it was
about half done the error in meas.
urement was perceived. 1t was
guarded against by the use Of extra
braces in the further construction OF
the building and an adaptation of
the stone in the highest portion.
There are seven bells on the top of
the tower, the largest of which
weighs 1000 pounds, and these are
so placed as to counterfeit as far as
possible the leaning Of the tower it
self.-Fire and Water.
