DR.. Weiser received some unusually
sad news from his old home in Pennsvl-

ranged for their annual sleigh-ride from
! Selins Grove to NIiddleburgh, and when
the members started out with their Ia
dies, they formed jolly party and little
dreamt of the calamity that was soon to
befall them. Near Middleborgh they
were compelled to cross railroad track
near curve, and their singing drowned
the noise of an approaching train, which
struck the sleigh and killed two of the
party outright Several others were bad
ly manned and only three escaped iniu-
ry. Miss Minnie Schoch, who is we'll
known here, was to have been one of the
party, but was fortunately detained at
