ters From Harm

Steubenville, o., May 20.-An in
stance where the large puff sleeves
worn by women came in good play, was
in an accident occurring here yester-
day evening. a carriage belonging TO
J. d. Tweed was being driven down a
hill near his home, when one Of the
horses started to run, and swerving,
tumbled both horses over a bank. Two
of Mr.. Tweed's sons were in the car
riage, and one jumped to catch the
horses. while the other held the lines.
The carriage, which upset, rolled over
several times before reaching the bot4
tom of the bank. Two Of Mr.. Tweed's
daughters were in the back seats, and
although the carriage was damaged
they escaped uninjured and attribute
their escape to FILLING on their sleeves.

A Narrow Escape,

PIrTsBURG, Pa, June 25.-The lives
of thirty people were miraculously
saved at 1890 o'clock this morning only
by the remarkable stop of q fast freight
train on the West Pennsylvania Rail
way, near the Sharpsburg bridge. Five
people we're injured and one may die.
The accident was caused by the freight
train striking trolley car of the Sharps
burg aud Citizens Line on cross
ing. The trolley pole slipped from
the wire just as the car got
fairly on the West Pennsylvania
rails, leaving the car in darkness
and helpless. While Conductor Lind
say was endeavoring TO replace the
trolley pole, the freight train approach
ed at full speed. The engineer of the
freight saw the car and reversed his
engine, making q most remarkable
stop, not, however, until the trolley
err was wrecked and the motorman
aud four passengers were injured. The
motorman was terribly bruised and
may die.

nine Kentucky Convention.


LOUISVILLE, KY, June 25.-At noon
to-day John d. Carroll, chairman OF
the State Central Committee, called to
order what will probably prove the
most interesting democratic convention
ever held in Kentucky: This Is the hrst
time the republicans have ever had a
chance to elect O governor, and the
democrats feel that the man they
chose to run against Bradley must De
one of more than ordinary popularity
and possessing unusual qualifications.
The rock that the republicans look to
for their salvation is the one upon
which the democrats are expected to
split-the money question.
There is big free-silver contingent
in the State. led by Senator Blackburn,
but in this convention the gold sd,
yocates are largely in the majority and
the platform will undoubtedly indorse
that adopted by the national convention
in Chicago in 1892.
The Clay men this morning are claim
ing increased strength during the night
and the Hardin men are not SO san
guine but it is still far from settled who
will be the gubernatorial nominee. Be
sides governor this convention will
select lieutenant governor, secretary
of State, treasurer and other State OF
ficers. 1t will take at least two days to
finish the work and probably three or
four. The organization of the COM
mi,tee on resolutions shows majority
of gold men in the committee.
Jos. G. Blackburn was beaten by
