THE TRIPLE TRIo.--Wc are glad to
commend the excellent music of the
local organization known as the Trl-
pie Trio. This club, when organized
was composed of nine mbers, from
which fact they took their name, but
the membership has grown until
there are now fifteen skillful musi-
clans on the roll. The music this
little club is highly artistic, ard at
each public appearance they show
such improvement as TO warrant us
in believing that they will soon be as
noted for their skill as they are for
their obliging kindness when asked
to play for any public enterprise.
We urge the boys to continue their
practice, and we look forward with
much pleasure TO the time when
they will come before us with some
thing on q larger scale than they
have yet attempted World.

of this city on Saturday last. The
train was drawn by two engines, No.
8l2, Robert Harris, engineman and
sos, VIM. Blackwell, engineman.
When trains are running with two
engines, all signals are to come from

to be applied by the engine next to

at right rapid rate of speed and on
going around the curve Mr.. Harris
saw freight train on the track just
in front. He blew for brakes and re.
versed his engine, but the signal was
not heard by the next engine. The
second signal was heard, but it was
too late to avoid q collision. They
ran into the caboose of tie front
train and demolished 1t and three
other cars. Engine 8l2 was consid-
erably broken up. Mr.. Harris jump
ed before his engine strucS and was
considerably bruised and injured. As
soon as the wreck was gotten out Of

Mr.. Keplinger was in the caboose of
that train. He left the caboose and
started for his own train when the
caboose in which he had been moved
back, and not hearing its approach
he was struck by it. He grasped the

dragged along considerable dis

once taken to the Queen City Hotel
and assistance called. He was re-
moved to his home in this city the
next day, and is getting along as
well as could be expected consider

infamed condition OF the nucuus

rumbing sound OF imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can he taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out OF ten are caus-
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but
an iDfamed condition of the mucous

We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case OF deafness (caused
