Accidents.

VIM. Deemer, the butcher of Mars made
a narrow escape from death last Tuesday,
between his home and Downjeyillo. He
was waiting for a train to pass when they
cut the train and sigualed him to cross.
As he was crossing the second track az
engine struck his horses, killing one and
upset the wagon Mr. Deemer was but
slightly bruised.
Wm. Abbins, boiler maker OF Mars
was burned while repairing boiler which
had beer previously filled with oil, the
gas ignited from his lamp.
Jos. Berry of Bakerstown broke his
right ankle on the ! n. Fulton farm in
Middlesex twp a few days ago.
Henry Miller of Zelienople was terribly
crushed between band-wheel and gate
post last Thursday The News says: He
was hauling a band wheel to an oil well
near Eidenau, and while passing through
a gateway, the wheel slipped, striking him
on the head and crushed it against the
gate post. HIS head was so terribly mash
ed and laeerated, that he died Tuesday
afternoon.
A horse belonging to Jackson Armstrong
ran off, on the road north of North Wash

Flim-Flammed by a Negro.

Gimme four fves for two tens" said
William Green, the eolored porter of the
Columbia Hotel, of Beaver Falls, to the
young lady in charge OF the money order
department at the Beaver Falls post office,
recently, at the same time throwing down
two $40 bills. The young lady handed out
four $5 bills, which the negro pocketed
quietly, and al the same time said; "Let
me have $50 in small change" Tt young
lady counted out the $50 in change. passed
it over to Green, who passed Ter over the
two $40 bills that he should have given her
for the four So bills, and then he walked
out.
She did not notice the Aim-ham game,
but Postmaster Hawkins, who had proba-
bly, witnessed the transaction, thought
there was something queer about It, so he
questioned her and then the truth flashed
upon her that she had given out $40 and
had only got $50 in return, To verify it, q
cash balance was made up and the office
was just short $40. The lady clerk went
to the hotel to see Green and found him
preparing to leave town. He denied that
there was anything wrong and an officer
was telephoned for and he was locked up.
He still persisted in his innocence. but fin
ally weakened and the police succeeded in
getting the money back from him.

Turned to Stone.

A special from Bradf)rd last Saturday
stated that the remains of William r.
Fisher and wife, together with the remains
of their daughters, Nellie and Ida, and a
niece named Nellie Dart, were disinterred
at the old Kennedy street cemetery and
taken to Oak Hill, where they were again
consigned to earth. The body of Nellie
Dart was inferred in the old cemetery in
1861. The daughter Nellie, was buried
in 1864, and Ida in 1874. William R
Fisher died in 1885, and his death was fol-
lowed four years later, or in 1889, Ey that
of his wife. The earth was dug from the
graves and an attempt made to lift the
coffins out, when the undertaken was
greatly surprised to find them almost i'm
movabla. After considerable effort one of
the caskets was brought to the top of the
grave, and opened. 1t was found that the
body it contained was N perfect state of
preserv alton.
From the top of the head to the bottom
of the feet the body was as solid as mar
BILE, and the features we're lifelike in their
DatuTalness; even the clothing had become
petrifed. One alter another the bodies
were lifted from the earth, and when each
was examined, it was found to have turn
ed to a stone-like substance The body
of Miss Dart, which was inferred in 1861,
resembled statue of marble. At the time
of Miss Darts death she weighed 200
pounds, but when the lady was exumed it
was twice that weight. The bottom of
the graves in the lower portion of the old
cemetery are covered with water at all
times, and it is supposed the mineral prop
critics of this water caused petrifcation. 1t
is said that other petrified bodies have been
taken from the old cemetery.

A Fatal Fire.

On Friday of last week, an oil well in the
Warrington district, which has just been
drilled into the oil producing rock, took
fire from an explosion of gas, eighteen m an
were burned, two of whom fatally, three
dangerously, and three slightly.
One of those fatally burned was Samuel
Anchors, son of Nathaniel Anchors OF
Hovey twp, whose remains were brought
home and inferred in Allegheny cemetery
last Monday. His remains were followed
TO the tomb by large concourse of sor-
rowing relatives and friends. He was
about 81 years of age, and was cut down at
the very threshold of useful life by a
most horrible and excrutiating death.
The family have the sincere and heartfelt
sympathy of every one who know them,
and the circumstances of the sons sudden
and terrible demise. 1t has been rumored
here that the other one, who was fatal y
burned, was Ed. Hays. brother of j. NJ.
Hays who resides on the pike leading from
here to Six Points. We however, have
heard no confirmation of the report. We
regret that we have been unable TO learn
the names of all of those who suffered in
the holocaust -IhOeRir.

A Worthy Cause.

Whereas the number of oolored people
residing here and those that lately immi-
grated here are sixty-t two, and
Whereas we feel there is great neces
sity of having some place to worship where
they can meet and pray that their children
may be brough to Christ,
And as they are not strong enough
financially themselves a few BENEVOLENT
Christian people have come to their aid to
assist them financially and spiritually, so
the people, our brothers and sisters may
be lifted up to better life, we the under
signed committee ask for the cooperation
of all Christian people to come to their aid,
both with your prayers and your money as
there is great work in our town to be
done in this line for Christ.
Any help in this cause can be handed to
any of the committee.
