WEST CHESTER, Jan. 20.-The
mystery of the wrecking Of the pas
senger train from Philadelphia for This
place, at LoclSley station, Oh the p, w.
& b. railroad on Saturday afternoon,
by which an engine was thrown down
a twenty-five foot embankment and the
engineer William McCue, of this place,
injured, has been cleared up and re-
veals deliberate attempt to wreck the
train, which, had it been successful as
planned. would have resulted in the
less of many lives The breaking of
coupling was the only thing which pre-
vented the entire train from following
the locomotive.
The wreck was caused by two boys
who are under sentence at the House
of Refuge, at Glen Mills, and who had
escaped from that institution. It Is
said they have made a confession TO
the officials Of the railroad company.
The officials are reucent about the case
and the names of the boys are not
giAon out II is probable that they will
be dealt with by the officials al the
House Of Refuge.
The boys selected a curve at the top
Of the high embankment as the place
to deiai the train, which was fast
passenger. and arranged to throw IL
down the embankment. This was
done by using an old shovel. the han
lie of which was trimmed with a knife
to dt alongside the rail and the iron
portion was arranged so that the
wheels OF the ears would run upon it
and follow the handle to the ground.
The scheme worked well and the en-
CINE and baggage cars left the track
while the train was running forty
miles Gn an hour, but a coupling broke
and saved the passenger coaches.

CAL AND DRAMATIC TALENT.

AlIE-A -AANDhlA'S > SOlIOhED III OSl-
CAL AND DRAMATIC TALEN T..
We note with pardonable pride that
our Alexandria colored people are 'ris-
ingn and | am sure the GAZETTE will
allow space to speak Of the talent alive
among one class of its people. One of
the agencies that advances the colored
people of Alexandria is the Amateur
Orchestra and Dramatic Club. They
are not professionals" and are banded
together for Improvement in voice and
Instrumental music aud to study Shake.
,pean aud heavy literature. The club
consists of teachers and others engaged
IN useful industrial pursuits. When
ever they give public entertainment
the proceeds are devoted to some de-
serving public charity.
Las. Friday night, in the New Opera
House, the Dramatic Club was at its
oest. A crowded house greeted them.
The proceeds were for the benefit of
the Alexandria In6rmary.
This being an amateur performance,
and just as ''in the spring brighter
iris gistens on the FURNISHED dove"
Likewise "in the spring the young man's
fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love"
making on the stage. Thus thought
the Dramatic Club when they produced
tor the first time that celebrated play OF
East Lynne.
The cast of characters would have
done credit to old professionals. Lulu
2. Chapman, as Lady Isabel" ana
Madame Vine," acted magnifcently
her different roles. In act first, "The
Honeymoon" she sang You'll Re-
member Me" with thrilling effect, and
iu act fourth, "The Retribution." The
i ,terest was intense when she exclaim
ed, My child is dead !" Lillian NJ.
Sayles as barbara Hare" was fault
lrssly rendered. Maggie F. FELTON, as
"Corneia Carlyle" kept the hou-e in
the best of spirits and proved herself
an excellent actress. Her articulation
WAS perfec.. Katie E. Boarman as
Joyce" aud Sarah A. Taylor as "Wil-
SOM played their parts well. James
w. Lumpkins as Archibald Carlyle"
acted superbly. Freeman Murry as
Sir Francis Leviton came up to the
standard of star actor. He could
easily make his living on the stage.
Clarence H. Madella as Lord Mount
Severn" performed his task with great
skill. BY the way he took his part he
is worthy of the title OF the "Colored
Chesterfield of Alexandria" Samuel
W. Madden as Richard Hare" sus-
tanned his part as one of the best of the
support.
Patrick H. Lumpkins, as "Mr. John
Dill, was Mr.. John Dill himself. Pa :
rick Lumpkins being one of The "aIl
'ronnd men," is easily the leader OF the
Dramatic Club. He needs no introduc-
tlon as an actor, singer or man to COL
ored Alexandrians. Albert B. Hop
kins, as "Ohicer," looked like one Ct
the finest. Fanchon Chapman as "Lit-
tie William" was beautifully acted.
The orchestra rendered artistically Sc
lections from Wagner, Rooas, Paul and
Hosfeld. The club is managed by 2.
w. Buckner, as director OF orchestrs;
Freeman Murry, director Dramatic
/ Club Alice S. Sales and Ella V. Evans,
pianists; B. Ellis Holsendorf, stage
manager; Patrick II. Lumpkins, busi-
ness manager; G. G. Brooks, president.
