BARELY ESCAPED DEATH.
A Tram Killed Two Horses at Trenton
This Morning.

Two men barely escaped death on the Le-
high Valley railroad at Trenton, near
Delano, this morning. They were Andrew
Pickum, butcher of Mahanoy City, aud a
friend named Michael Madura. At about
eight o'clock this morning they tried to beat
passenger train No. 90 at a railway crossing,
but the train made the most speed. Their
two horses were struck and instantly killed
and the wagon was badly wrecked Pickum
and Madura were thrown high in the air and
fell several feet from the railroad The
former sustained no injury and Madura only
received scratches and bruises about the face.
They had a remarkable escape.

less. One morning when the kitchen
girl went out to throw out some refuse
che saw queer-looking bundle,
wrapped in a shawl, lying in the box.
Poking the bundle to one side with
the side of the pan she was carrying
what was her surprise to hear a shrill
little wall Of terror from the folds Of
the shawl. Hastily dropping her pan
the girl drew aside the dirty old shawl
and revealed TO her astonished eyes a
little face with blue, fearful eyes and
pale, pinched features. Picking up the
founding she carried it inside and soon
the whole household was gathered about
the kitchen table staring at the new
discovery. The discovery-a wee mite
of baby girl-feeling the cheerful
warmth of the house stopped whimper-
ing and returned the stares.
Although pale and terribly thin, her
golden hair and big blue eyes were so
pretty that the pallor and emanciation
of her cheeks but added a touch of
pathos to their childish beauty. 1t
wasn't long before the innocent eyes
had found their way to the hearts of the
husband and wife and the end of it was
that a nurse was hired and the little
one became the central figure of the
family circle.
Years passed away; no one ever came
to claim the founding. The baby grew
into girlhood, her frocks heightened
into dresses, the incident which had
been something more than a nine days
wonder was forgotten by nearly every
one outside the family and she came to
be considered the daughter of her fos-
ter parents. A few years ago she, then
beautiful young woman, met Chi
cagoan who was visiting in the east.
They evinced a more than usual liking
for one another's company. When he
returned to Chicago there was a boom
in foreign note paper and the volume
of the United States mails suffered an
increase. Then the Chicagoan had fire.
quent business calls to the east. It
was not long until wedding was an
nounced and a newly-married couple
took possession of a brown-stone front
on Ashland boulevard.
A short time ago q newcomer came to
make his home behind the brown-stone
front. 1t was then that the old garbage
box again came into prominence. After
the bundle in the old shawl had BEEN
