Two Men Were Killed and Il Num-
her Injured

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 21.-The To-
cal north-bound train on the Reading
railroad, which left the station in this
city at 6:15 this morning. and reached
the suburban town of Frankford, at
6:44, started from the Frankford sta
ton without waiting, as is customary,
for the down train, which arrives at
6:44, and the result was head-on col
lision at Sellers street, two blocks
north of the Frankford station. Two
persons were killed and a number in
jured, three of them fatally. The kill
ed are:
DANIEL HART, aged 70 years, of
Frankford.
GEORGE ANDERSON, 16 years, Of
F'rankford-
Injured: Edward Stott, 90 Frank
ford, both legs crushed, will probably
die; Samuel Sievers, Frankford, both
legs and one arm crushed, will proba-
bly, die; George Lee, 10 years, Frank
ford, both legs and one arm crushed,
will die; Charles Guard, %, Philadel-
phia, baggag agemaster; Herbert Fray, II,
Frankford; William Mosley, 16 years,
Frankford; Irwin Udall, 45, Frankford.
All the Killed ana seriously injured,
with few exceptions, were in the COM
bination car of the outbound train.
The force Of the collision was so great
that the bumpers of both engines were
smashed to splinters. The tender of
the north-bound train was driven clear
through the baggage compartment of
the combination car into the smoking
compartment, which was crowded
with passengers, and this is where the
slaughter took place.

excited frame of mind today and flock
ed in large numbers to Walhalla hall.
There were so many of them that all
could not find standing room. Many
women, the wives and daughters of
the tailors, crowded the galleries. Mr..
Schoenfeld and others made speeches,
assuring the men. that they had the
right side and were sure to win in the
long run. The contractors say that
matters will be brought to a focus to-
morrow. Sunday

SAME OLD GAME.
This Time an Embryo Pedagogue
Was the Victim.

A young man by the name of Howett,
on his way to attend the state normal
school at Mankato, was done" out of
$40 early last evening upon his arrival
in this city over the 500 road. On the
train Howett made the acquaintance of
a stranger. When they arrived in Min
neapolis the stranger had some pack
ages at the express office which he
wanted to get out and wanted Howett
to help him carry to the train, as he,
too, was going to Mankato.
The story has been told so many
times that 1t is new to no one who reads
the daily papers. The stranger was
met by a second man. who told him he
would have to hurry to get the pack
ages. The first stranger only had a
check and Howett was induced to loan
$40. The first stranger then went after
his packages and Howett waited until
he tumbled to the fact that he had
been worked" He then told his trou-
bles to Officer Tom Mcnamara. No
trace of the confidence men could be
found, however.

Funeral Over the Remains of
Gale n. Walters Held.

The coroner's jury to investigate the
death of Gale n. Waters, who was
killed Thursday, at the Palace Cloth
ing house, was impanelled yesterday,
and the remains identified, after which
an adjournment was taken until Mon.
day, when witnesses to the accident
will be summoned.
r. w. Walters, of Fond du Lac, Wis,
a brother of the deceased, arrived in
this city yesterday, to take charge of
the remains and complete arrange,
ments for the funeral. The Masonic
burial rites will be performed this
afternoon at o'clock, at Masonic Tenn
pie, after which the body will be
shipped to Fond du Lac for interment.
The remains were removed to Hume
& Davies undertaking parlors, in Ma
sonic Temple, yesterday afternoon, and
will be kept there that friends may see
them until this afternoon.
The Palace Clothing company has al,
most entirely repaired the damage done
by the accident. The repairs were
made yesterday morning, and the store
could have opened for business then.
Manager Rothschild, however, decided
to remove all traces of the disaster
before reopening. Monday morning
the Palace will do business as usual,
with everything as it was before the
wreck.

oueer Place for Coin.

A very curious affair occurred in Van
Buren,, Me-, the truth of which is
vouched for by several witnesses
While w. f. Records, the well-known
horseman, was in the village he was
asked to look at a horse which had a
hard bunch on the shoulder blade. Mr..
Records opened the swelling, when to
his astonishment he found a silver 10
cent piece in the center of the bunch.
AS there was no mark on the skin,
curious people can amuse themselves
in formulating theory as to how the
piece of money found lodgment there.
Whether the nag is a walking mint or
whether Mr.. Records would have found
quarters, gold pieces or greenbacks had
he kept on, deponent saith not. The
truth of the dime, however. is beyond
a doubt.

NIGHT LATCH.

ed in the Dark.


Philadelphia Record.
Oberlin Smith has been allowed a.
patent upon an entirely new type of
combination lock. 1t embodies several
unique and valuable principles; the
knob is without dial, heXagonal in
shape, with small push button device
in the center. The tumblers of the
lock are so arranged as to make 100 900
combinations by rotating the knob
about its axis to each one of the five
angular positions, which are determin-
ed by the sides of the hexagonal knob
becoming approximately vertical.
When unlocking the first and second
fingers loosely clasp the neck of the
knob between each of the positions;
as the knob is revolved a certain num-
ber of pushes are given to the button
in the center of the hole, numbering
anywhere from nothing to nine, as
the combination may be set. The lock-
ing is accomplished by a twist of the
knob and pull. The lock has the ap-
pearance of being ingenious and Sc
cure. 1t has been named the Ere
bus" because it can be worked as well
in the dark as in the light.

ETY. Has Results.
Because of the interference of the
Humane society, the gentlemen who
projected and furthered the scheme to
have a coursing meeting New Years
day at Minnehaha Driving park, heve
declared the meeting off.
Such an affair has never before been
attempted in this vicinity, though sue
cessful meetings are held in other
cities. The original idea was to hold
the meeting on Lake Harriet, and Agent
Tatro gave assurance that no one
would interfere; but conditions made it
impossible to- hold the meeting there,
SO Minnehaha Driving park was en-
gagged. The gentlemen connected with
the affair have no desire to antagonize
the Humane society, even though, in
their opinion, their project, when un-
derstood, would be sanctioned by the
society. They are unwilling to urse
the matter.

Poker is all the rage just now among the

are permitted to sit at the green cloth and
daily with the seductive chips. The ladies
play like men-that is, they put their
money up before they sit down and cash
in their chips at the end of the game, ac-
cording to the rules and regulations pro-
vided. There has been good deal of
comment and gossip recently about the
stiff games played by some of these
women and it is predicted that if the
practice keeps up a scandal of huge pro-
