A NARROW ESCAPE.

James Keemer, the eight-year.old
son of Mrs. John Keemer, narrowly es.
ciped an awful death at the hands OF
half crazy man 10 Lancaster, Pa
Tuesday evening. The boy, with sew
eral companions, was playing along the
Pennsylvania railroad tracks in the vi
ciuity of Shippen street. A half-witted
man named Duthy Weaver resides in
the eighborhood, and tantalizing boys
have made him the butt of their ridi-
cule and tormented him.
Weaver was sitting by the railroad,
GEAR Best's boiler works, when a
crowd of boys approached him. The
after deny positively that they either
annoyed or harmed the irresponsible
individual, but Weaver, evidently be-
lug angered at some fancied previous
wrong that had been done him, chased
the youthful pleasure seekers.
All in the party were too speedy for
him except Keemer, whom be caught,
and upon whom he then attempted to
wreak diabolical revenge. With some
rope he had in bis pockets he tied the
lad by the hands and feet to tie in the
tracks, so that the centre of mis- body
crossed the rail. He also took the pre-
caution to prevent his victim from rails
ing an alarm by stuffing handker-
chief in his mouth. Then, leaving the
lad in this helpless condition, he stood
GEAR by aud waited patiently for the
approach Of train.
Keemer's companions were 30 alarm
cd when their. pursuer gave chase tia
they scampered toward home, but
missing their companion, they resolved
TO institute search for him. Weaver
uad selected dark spot to commit his
deed; but after few minutes hunt
tbree of the party made the shocking
discovery.
They ran as fast as their legs could
carry them to Keemer's home and mott
fed his mother. She hurried to the
scene and liberated her boy, who was
yearly crazed with fright, just before
the arrival of q passenger train.
Weaver was incensed at her action,
which he witnessed, and became in
oudent, but shortly afterward sulked
way.
The affair for time created intense
excitement in the neighborhood, and
the widest kind of rumors were set
afloat. Public indignation ran high,
nut soon subsided when it was learned
chat crazy man had been the perpe-
tfator.

COMPLETING THE CABINET
Delegations VISIT Canton in the Interest
of Friends Who Are After
P6rffoJnc

CANTON, OHIO, Feb. 2.-The Maryland
booms for Cabinet appointments met here
to-day and Senator Wellington of that
Stale, who did not come nearer Canton
than Cleveland, is credited with assisting
one OF them to drop quickly from view.
The withdrawal of Judge Golf from the
list of Cabinet possibilities caused the
friends Of Jane, NJ Gray of Baltimore to
think that there was an opportunity for a
Maryland representative in the Cabinet,
and as he is indorsed by influential poll
ticians in all but two of the Southern
States a strong showing was and has
again been made in his behalf
Judge Lewis McComas, a former mem
Der. OF Congress from Hagerstown, now a
Judge in the District of Columbia, has
been suggested by many OF his friends as
an available man for appointment to the
Cabinet. 1t is understood that the Repub-
lican organization in tha. State which is
controlled by Senator Wellington, is not
friendly TO him.
The Missouri delegation which came to
Canton this afternoon to ask President
Mckinley to appoint William Warner of
Kansas City to the Cabinet made strong
argument in his behalf.
4Ae MlSsourl VlsllorS presented lndorse-
ments OF Major Warner from the Legsa-
lures of Indiana, Texas, Kansas and of
their own State. 1t will occasion no sur
prise if tie President-elect should not
choose a New York Republican for his
official family, though it is not probable
that ne will leave both New York and the
South out of it.
The fin al cast for the Cabinet has not
been made, and no one knows the precise
position that will be occupied by some of
the men who have been offered and &C
cepted Cabinet positions.
1t cannot be positively affirmed that ex-
Governor Long will be Secretary of the
Navy until the two remaining places are
filled, though it is certain that he has
been rendered and accepted a position.
