Deadly Trolley Poles.

Philadelphia, January 22.-CIayton G,
Collins. a motorman of the IS and 18th
street line, was killed last night xs the
result of a singular accident, and his car,
losing it's guiding hand, ran for half a
mile without CONTROL endangering the
ives of score of passengers.
While Collins was descending a steep
grade, one of the gates on the front plat
form became loosened and he leaned over
the side to fasten the gate. The trolley
and feed wires on this part of the line
are carried on poles placed between the
trucks with clearance of hardly twelve
inches between the poles and passing
oars. Collins evidently forgot about
these posts for he leaned out toward the
other track and almost instantly crashed
against one Of the poles Stunned by
the blow he fell upon the gate and his
head received crashing blow as each
post was passed, scattering his ife's
blood along the sides Of the car and leay-
ing horrible trail in it's path.
The car was we'll filled with women
and the conductors view of the front
platform was obstructed. He did not
know Of the accident until the skrieking
women mado a rush for the platform a md
shut off the current.
Collins was dead when the car WAS
stopped and his head was mangled almost
beyond recognition.

"Hawthorne and His Times. i.

Last evening, at the cozy EFirst Parish
house, Miss Margaret Brainard delivered
her interesting lecture on Hawthorne,
his life and times" under the auspices
! of the Women's Alliance. The audience
was very much interested and showed
| their appreciation markedly at its close.
Miss Brainard was gracefully introduced
in few words by Mrs. Edwin 9. Jor-
dan.
| Miss Brainard has very pleasant
voice. and delivered her lecture in con-
vocational way, free from Inannerisms.
Commencing her story with the facts
| that in 1904, when Hawthorne was born.
Washington had been dead but five years,
| and enumerating the great historical per-
sonages then in the public view, she
| called the attention Of her audience to
| the circumstance that all the great in
| ventions that have revolutionized the
world came after that time. Then she
proceeded to speak of Hawthorne's ances-
tors; the first coming from Wiltshire
with Gov. Winthrop to Dorchester and
thence to Salem, man of strong charac-
ter and great energy, grim Puritan; his
son, chief judge in the witch trials at
Salem; his grandson Joseph, quiet far
mer: Nathaniels grandfather, command
or of privateer; and his own father a
sea captain who married Elizabeth Man
ming Of Salem.
The lecturer then spoke of the meian-
oholy temperament of Hawthorne's
taciturn father, and the secluded widow
hood of his mother, that doubtless had
much to do with the peculiar tempera-
ment o. the author, who was as Handsome
as Apollo. His school and college life
was referred to, and the story of his
courtship and marriage to Sophia Pea
body prettily told. The sojourn at Ray
mo nd in this state was spoken of. Then
the speaker told of the circumstances
und err which Haw thorne's various novels
we're written, of his Brook Farm expert
ences; of the coterie gathered about him
at Concord in the cold Manse" These
are but few of the points touched upon.
