A Chapter Of More OR Less Serious
MiShapS Yesterday.
a South Side Glassworker Serious
ly Injured Near Washington, Pa.
Ed. Murrin's Arm Fractured--A
Wreck on the @. L. g w. Rail
road-Other Small Accidents.

Myles Megrail, South Side glass
worker who is employed at the Novelty
glass factory in Washington, Pa, was
brought home from that city yesterday
morning suffering from injuries of a
very serious nature, which may teynin-
ate fatally.
Mr.. Megrail spent Sunday in the
city, and in company with James
Campbell, another South Side glass
worker, boarded the B. & o. train leav-
ing at 5:45 o'clock Sunday night. Mr..
Campbell missed him when the train
pulled out, and it is supposed that he
got off about Elm Grove. At any rate,
he caught freight train which did not
stop at Washington.
The train had gone about three miles
past Washington when he attempted
to get off. His coat caught on the car,
and he fell with considerable force on
the ground. His left leg was crushed
and several bones fractured, and his
head and body were bruised in pain
Jul manner.
No person witnessed the accident.
When Mr. Megrail realized his cOndi-
tion he found that he could not walk.
He saw a barn about five hundred
yards distant, and started to crawl to-
ward it. He reached the fence within
a short distance of the barn. Here he
stopped, and a man living in a farm
house was attracted by his cries for
help and came to his assistance.
Megrail was taken TO Washington be-
fore daylight, and his fellow workmen
made him as comfortable as possible
until he could be removed to this city
He was brought in on the morning
train and taken in the patrol wagon to
the Haskins Hospital, on the South
Side. 1t was found that he was not in
jured internally, and a very delicate
operation was performed in the hope
that his limb may be saved. He was
then removed to his home on Wetzel
street, in the Eighth ward. His condl-
ton is very serious.

known constable to try TO grab the
money in the box Office Mr.. Dryden
alleges that he was willing to let the
performance be given, and allow the
money to remain in Mr.. Feinler's
hands, but the latter claims that he had
no such understanding. Mr.. Dryden
was also indignant about the idea OF
any person directing an officer to ar
rest a constable, who was armed with
authority, in the discharge of his duty"
The whole matter is decidedly COM
pllcated, and further developments
promise to be interesting.

BETTER THAN THE BEST.

That, of course, means the celebrated
Wurzburger beer. now on sale at all
first-class saloons. 1t was imported by
Mr.. "Zeke" Ball, the agent of the GoeOel
Brewing Company, and the connois-
seurs, who sampled it yesterday,
stamped it as one of the best beers ever
introduced in the community. 1t has
many elements that recommend it. 1t
is pleasing to the palate and agreeable
to the stomach. DO you have that cele-
brated tired feeling in the morning ?
Well, if ycu ever do, all that is neces-
sary to dissipate it is to drink about a
couple OF glasses of Wurzburger.s It
never fails.

There was a brakeman on each car.

Some OF the stories told about the
raids made on the Republican candi-
dates, in the way of beer, are extremely
queer. and at the same time Illustrate
the boundless resources of the gangs
who devote all their time to working
candidates. while the devices Of the
ticket-sellers are many and intricate.
A glance at the sample case" of all
sorts of tickets. in the Office of the City
Clerk, gives a faint idea Of the extent
to which this evil is carried on. There
are at least one hundred tickets in this
collection, ranging in price from 15c to
81 each, and calling for admission to
all sorts of entertainments, balls. and
chances on everything from a coal bank

things are frauds pure and simple. the

entertainment or chances in anything.
In short, il is simply a device to extort
money from the aspiring candidate,

palpable fraud. but has not the moral
courage to refuse to contribute to the
man who demands rather than solicits
the money.
