FROM A CAR window.
A WEST VIRGINIA GIRL SUICIDES ON A
B. & 0. TRAIN.

Passengers on No. 8, B. & o. train
from Chicago, due in this city at 2:25
o'clock this morning, reported the
tragic suicide Of a young West Virginia
womSn, passenger on the train, while
it was between Mansfield and Mt Yer
non, o.
The woman, who seemed to be about
twenty or twenty-five years Of age, got
on the train at Chicago yesterday morn
ing. She was accompanied to the B. q
o. depot in that city by two women,
who were observed TO be crying as they
babe her goodbye. Ike only baggage
carried by the young woman consisted
of several bundles.
The woman seems to have excited no
particular attention in the car, until
Mansfield was reached, when she went
into the wat or closet She locked the
door, and as she did not emerge after
the lapse of reasonable time the
passengers called the attention Of
the conductor TO the matter and
wanted TO know why the closet door
was locked, some Of them not knowing
that the woman had entered. At last
it was seen that her seat was va:
cant, and that she must be in the closet,
but the conductor, although convinced
that something was the matter with the
occupant OF the closet, decided 30 wait
until Mt. Vernon was reached, as he did
not like to break in the door.
When the train reached Mt. Vernon,
which is about half an hours run from
Mansfield, an entrance was effected TO
the closet through the car window, which
was raised, and the closet was found 10
be empty. The woman had gone into
the closet, locked the door, raised the
closet window and jumped out.
This much being settled, the woman's
baggage was examined, when it was
found that the woman had carefully
torn all names and other marks OF iden-
LITIGATION from her clothing, except and
saving the three letters wv. Va, a part
OF ah address, of which the missing
name was undoubtedly Clarksburg.
As the train was running at the rate
OF about forty miles an hour when the
woman made her desperate leap, there
can be little doubt that she was killed
by the wild plunge in the dark.

The Accidents Reported From About the
City Yesterday.
Yesterday afternoon there was an
exciting runaway, starting from Ford 5
Crossing. a farmer from Moundsville
left his two horses, attached to wagon,
standing at the crossing, while he went
20 a business house near by. The
horses became frightened and dashed
down Chapline street. Az Thirty-eighth
street they were stopped in an unusual
manner. William Kain was riding on
horseback there, and seeing the horses
running toward him, be put his horse
in their way. He succeeded 10 getting
the animals checked without doing him
self any injury. Little other damage
was done.
Last Thursday morning John Finne-
gan, Of the Sixth ward, suffered a pecu-
liar and very painful accident He was

mains 20 Fulton, He started down the
steep road above Seventh street with q
pick on his shoulder. BY slipping acct
dentaly, he fell and the sharp pick pen

THE COXBY ARMY.
BENWOOD NAY SEND A DRLEGATIOE TO
SWELL THR HOST

A movement has been started among
the unemployed persons Of BenwoOd TO
form a detachment 10 join the CoXey
army. This will be surprise to many,
but already several men Of the town
have become interested and are talking
among their friends encouraging the
movement.
liver since the strange freak began
to agitate the people Of the country the
idle men of BenWOod have shown more
than q passing interest. Yesterday the
matter was talked Of more than on any
previous day, and there is little doubt
that a company of at least fifty persons
will be formed in the town to join the
army at Pittsbnrg, if it ever gets there.
By the recent enumurati0n Of the
voters of the town it was found that
there was about 800 idle men in the
town and It is from among these per-
sons that those Interested expect to
draw the crowd Besides these there
are a large number Of boys and young
men, some of whom when seen yester-
day said they would Do glad to join the
army for the fun If nothing else.
There are a half dozen idle men OF
the town Who are az the back OF the
project and they are averse to having
their names made public as yet. These
men have all been idle for months and
they are not of the vagrant class either.
Yesterday q reporter from the REGIS
TER was at BsnWoOd, and had converse
lions with those who are taking the
most interest in the undertaking. They
said thew believed it was TO their ad-
vantage 10 go, as they seem to think
they can obtain some sort Of redress at
least. 1t is the idea to get the detach-
ment under orders as soon as possible,
and 10 begin the march as soon as they
can get the orders from COXeY. 1t was
learned that the general has been writ
ten to, and they hope TO hear from him
in a few days. Those talked to said
they we're OF the belief that the gov
eminent would receive them kindly and
give them some kind of work. They
say, too, that they think the movement
can be carried out without violence to
any one.
A general meeting IS being arranged
for the early part Of next week, when
more definite plans are TO be made.
Coxey's scheme is generally regarded
by intelligent wOrkingmen in this city
as visionary and impracuicable. The
matter was brought up al the last meet
ing OF the Trades Assembly but no
action was tadeu. Ii a leader was
found, however, there would no doubt
5e many young men who would join
the ranks, if but for the prospect OF
having a good time" and the novelty
of the thing.

Home From England.

William Cooper, Of 1923 Jacob street,
one OF the leading potters Of the city,
got home last evening from a trip OF
eight weeks to his former home In Eng
land. Owing to the existing labor com
plcations in potters circles OF this
country, be thought it an advantageous
time to revisit his old home. He states
that the pottery situation in England is
very bad, and that the workmen on an
average are making about four days a
week. This gentleman brought many
relics home with him. While in that
far country he did not forget Squire
Joseph A. Ankle, of the Eighth ward,
but brought him two very fine clay
pipes. One Of them is % inches long,
and they are the only ones Of the kind
to be found in this city. He also
brought three black shamrock thorn
canes, which are novel and beautiful.

ST. PATRICK's DAY.
NO Celebration Here, but a General
'sWeRrin' OF the Green"

No Celebration Here, but a General
''WeRrin' OF the Green"
There is one day in the year whom
Irishmen own the earth-the 18th of
March. What I p Fourth Of July is to
the patriotic American, st. Patrick's
day is to the sturdy son Of Erin. 1t is
the only foreign national holiday which
is generally observed in this country.
In all the large cities the celebration
to-day in honor Of the patron saint OF
the green isle will take on an elaborate
form. In Wheeling IL has been many
wears since there was a formal Observ-
ance. The average citizen Of Hiber-
man extraction, will content himself
with "wearin' the green" Local mer-
chants are distributing many novel de-
signs, the most striking being a combi-
nation of the shamrock and small
silk American flag. Mr.. Martin Thorn
ton yesterday received cluster OF gen
uine shamrock from WestDOrt Quay,
Ireland, which be distributed among
his friends.
Though eXiled from home, the Irish
man loves the land of his nativity and
fondly looks forward TO the day, which
now seems not far distant, when the
unjust laws which have blighted the
prosperity OF Erin will be repealed; and
every Irishman will join in the senti-
ment. which to-day seems appropri-
ate:-
"Oh. IL for every tear
That from Our eXiled eyes
Has fallen. Erin dear,
A shamrock could arise,
We'd weave q garland green
To pierce the ocean through
All all the way between
Our aching hearts and yOu.'

in the details of the story himself, as
follows:
ION the Goth OF last April my msn,
