Fell From His Kngine.

Fell From His Kngine.
Mr. James Amos, an engineer ON she
Norfolk and Western railroad, fell from
his engine In the Island yard at about o
o'clock last night. and Sustained seri-
GUS frsoture of the skull. The accident,
as near IS could be nscertained. WAS
caused by the engineers missing bis
footing. He WAS stepping from the
engine into the tender to procure some
thing, when losing his footing, he fell
headlong. The fall from big freight
engine even when it is at standstill is
by no means an easy ono, and when to
this Is added the motion of the train,
the fall is very dangerous one. Mr..
Amos, In falling, must have struck his
head several timon; for the injuries in
fiicted could not have resulted from one
blow. Drs. John w, billiard, a. I.
Clark and Geo. w. Preston were sum-
moned, and upon examination found
that the skull was fractured and In
jured in two places. Amos was re-
moved to the Homo of Retreat, where
he Is in an extremely critical condition.
Mr.. Amoa lives in Roanoke and has
been connected with the Norfolk and
Western TOR several years. He is ap-
parently about 35 years of age.-Lynch.

combined with a stock show and
athletic meeting.
They say they will do all they
can to aid such a project and will
endeavor to secure the attendance
Of a large number Of poultry breed
ers from all over the state. The

NO COUNCIL MEETING.
A Stumbling Block in the Sewer
Matter Is Discovered.

The special called meeting of the
city council was held yesterday
afternoon. A caucus of the alder
men, at which the mayor and
engineer were present was held for
two hours in the mayors office,
discussing the sewer outlet pro.
posals, but nothing definite was
decided on.
There seems to be a stumbling
block in the way Of the council, In
building the large sewer. which
will be from 40 to 50 inches in dia-
meter, from where the sewer con
tract proper is to be finished in
the southern part of the city, and
the sewer farm. This sewer farm
will be several miles down the
river and the cost Of the large
sewer will be very great, roughly
estimated at between $4,000 and
$4,000 per mile.
Another meeting Of the alder
men Is to be held this afternoon.

when the war began. In March, 1851, he
was a lieutenant in command of Fort
Quitman, Texas, and received orders from
General Twiggs, the department. COM
mander, to abandon the post and join
Captain Reeve of the Eighth infantry IN
a march to San Antonio. The Texas
commissioners had agreed with General
Twiggs that the Federal troops should
leave the state, but when Captain Reeves
little command neared San Antonio aft
er a hard march of 900 miles it found
General Earl Van Dorm and Confed-
crate army Of 1900 men opposing its
further progress north.
To the disgust of the war department.
Captain Reeve surrendered, and although
Lieutenant Bliss was powerless to pre-
vent his superior officers act the dis
grace followed him throughout the war.
Bliss was imprisoned until April 5,
1862, when he was exchanged. The next
month he was appointed colonel Of the
Tenth Rhode Island volunteers, and for
several months commanded the northern
defenses of Washington. He was then
appointed colonel of the Seventh Rhode
Island and served with great valor
throughout the remainder of the war.
On three different occasions-once by
General Grant-he was recommended
for promotion as brigadier general for
gallantry, but the deserved promotion
was withheld because the war depart
ment had decided that no officer who
surrendered with Captain Reeve should
be promoted, no matter what he did or
how strongly he was recommended. He
commanded brigade at the Wilderness,
and was breveted for gallant and meri-
torious conduct. He has served in the
regular army since the war and was ap-
pointed colonel in 1885.
