B. Z 0. FREIGHT Wreck
Delays Passenger Trains on the
Hempfeld Division Exaggerated
Rumors Concerning the Accident.
A Number Of Other Casualties Re.
ported Yesterday.

The B. G o. railroad company is hav-
ing bad luck in this section. Following
upon the washout of last Monday, came
an accident yesterday on the Hemp
field division, near Washington, Pa
There were exaggerated reports afioat
IN the city yesterday concerning the
loss of life in this accident, and there
were many inquiries for authentic re-
ports, on account of ne delay in the
arrival Of the usual Sunday excursion
train for Pittsburg. The train did not
arrive in the city until about six o'clock
last evening. The following account of
the accident was received by the Reg
lister last night:
Special to the Register.
Pittsburg, Pa, July 12.-The through
freight on the Pittsburgh Wheeling d.
vision Of the B. & o. ran into a big
cavern in Grady's tunnel, two miles
east OF Washington at 4:30 this morn
ing Engine No. 1878 and one box car
were completely wrecked, and John
Conley, of Glenwood, the conductor
was instantly killed. At the instant
the engine struck the fall of dirt and
stone, Conley was stepping from the
forward car to the engine. He was
thrown against the side of the tunnel,
the engine rolling upon him. He was
dreadfully crushed and mangled.
JOSEPH w. BROWN IS HURT.
Joseph w. Brown, of Charleston, this
State, was seriously injured at the con-
vention hall Saturday morning.
Mr.. Brown, who is over 60 years of
age, has been figure among the Wis
itors at national conventions for quar-
ter Of century. The calamity came
about as the overlooking of the kind
ness of West Virginia. Delegate B. II.
Oxley noticed Mr.. Brown among the
great audience and at once motoned for
him to come forward and occupy seat
with the West Virginia delegation. The
aged Virginian attempted to step back
ward over his chair. In doing so his
foot tripped and he fell at full length
on the floor. No attention was paid to
the accident until the victim failed to
rise. Attendants at once carried the
unconscious nan to the emergency hos
pital in the hall. 1t was found that he
had sustained a dangerous fracture of
one arm. After it had been reduced
Mr.. Brown was removed to st. Luke's
hospital. Because of his advanced age
it was feared that the accident might
produce serious results. Mr.. Brown is
an attoreny-at-law.

How to Treat a Wife.
From Pacific Health Journal,

From Pacific Health Journal.)
First, get wife; second, be patient.
You may have great trials and per-
plsxities in your business, but do not,
therefore, carry to your home a cloudy
or contracted brow. Your wife may
have trials, which, though of less mag
nitude, may be hard for her to bear.
A kind word, a tender look, will do
wonders in chasing from her brow all
clouds of gloom. To this we would add
always keep a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy in the house. 1t is the
best and is sure to be needed sooner or
later. Your wife will then know you
really care for her and wish to protect
her health. For sale by L. Stabler d

A RocyFALLs FROM ABOVE
IL s+,<es the Barrow the Man Was

Single Man.
|, POcyFALLS FROM ABOVE

Robert Boyle was injured in the High
Ore mine last evening and died or his
injuries. Boyle went on duty at z
o'clock on the 1,100-foot level of the
High Ore. He was engaged in shovel
ing, and at s o'clock he was wheeling
a load in a wheelbarrow along the level
when a rock weighing about 300 pounds
fell from above and struck one end OF
the wheelbarrow. This caused the
handles of which he had hold to fly up
and strike him in the stomach.
Boyle uttered a cry which was heard
by William Moran, who was about 10
feet away, and who had also heard the
rock fall Moran hastened to Boyle's
assistance. He also notified A. w. Wes-
ton. the shift boss, who was in another
part of the mine. Boyle was carried to
the surface at once. The skin had not
been broken by the blow on his stom-
ach, and 1t was not thought that he
was severely injured. He was con-
scious up to the time of his death which
occurred at 3 o'clock. Boyle carried Q
silver watch, the crystal of which was
smashed in the accident, and the water
had stopped at one minute past
O clock, which was, the time of the ac'
cident.
The body was removed to Sherman''
undertaking rooms. Coroner Rlcnardi
will hold an inquest at O'Clock TIM
evening. Boyle was As years old ant
a single man. He has no relative
here. but leaves a mother In Donegal
| Ireland, where he was born. He ooafd
| ed at the Silver Lake house in Eas
Quartz street. He was member OF IN
| Miners union.

% L udd' nhead Wilson" Is Voted an un-
qualified success at Maguire's
Frank Mayo's "Pudd' nhead Wilson"
was voted an unquestionable and un-
qualified success at Maguire's opera
house last night by as delighted and as
thoroughly an entertained audience as
was ever in that house. The play Is
deeply interesting and cleverly con-
structed and Mr.. Mayo's portraiture OF
the eccentric but honest old clientless
lawyer, David Wilson, is probably the
hest performance of the eminent act
or's long and brilliant career, although
IL is in a different line from anything
heretofore attempted by him. Ii Is
triumph for Mr.. Mayo. His company
"a admirably adapted to the play ana
every character is played with a re-
markable thoroughness. Frank Aiken
as York Driscoll, a fine old southern
gentleman; Newton Chisnell, as Sherin
Rlake whose order in the cot during
the trial scene always brought down
the house. Frank Campeau, as rom
Driscoll, the unfavorable character IN
the play; Arnold DAILY, as Chambers,
the honest and wronged lad; Emmett
c. King, as Pembroke the lawyer, and
Adolph Klauber and George Hallton,
as the twins, were the principal male
members in the cast, and each played
his part perfectly.
| One of the strongest characters was
| that of Roxy, the female slave, ne
| eress. which is taken by Miss Eleanor
/ Moretti. a talented actress, who mas
| been leading lady for Salvini and otner
/ eminent actors. She never did any
thing better than her playing OF Roxy
| Aunt Patsy, by Miss Lucille Leverne,
was another excellently performed part
and Frances Grahame made mos'
charming Rowy. Florence Baker, as
Hannah, the slave, the wise men Oh
Dawson, the remarkable jury Oh l.
good and true men, all added to a per-
feet rounding out of an excellent pro,
auction. The costumes were IN stree
conformity with the time of the play
and were a cause of curious interest,"
Mr. Mayo and his company were agaii
and again called before the curtain.
A pleasing thing. though not par
of the play, was the performance De
tween the first and second acts by FRO
fessor Marino and his orchestra OF TN
professors new piece of music, TN
wedding March," beautifui compose
ton. oo.a
"Pudd'nhead Wilson" will be repeate
tonight and tomorrow and at a SAT-
urday matinee, and 1t is likely that Tn
house at each performance VIII De
crowded as it was last night.

When the slave trade was in full
swing. il was a common thing for mer-
chants on the west coast OF Africa to
purchase a cargo of rum and tobacco
and give slaves in exchange. The price
of a prime slave when Mungo Park was
among the Mandingoes was from nine
TO twelve minikallies, the equivalent OF
of one minikalli being something Ike
the following: Eighteen gun hints, ~
leaves of tobacco. 20 charges of gun
powder and a cutlass. D.. Livingstone,

nose the ravages of the slave raider,
