A GREAT MECHANICAL EFFECT.

The mechanism Of the enlarging 10
comotive, which is seen in "The Heart
of Chicago" which will appear at the
Opera House next Thursday night, is
the most intricate and costly piece OF
machinery ever used in stage effect,
and, like all the stage illusions used in
his plays, was invented by Mr.. Carter,
who has always boasted that he could
reproduce on the stage any wonder of
nature or work of man. After seeing
the approaching train in THE Heart
Of Chicago" one must admit that the
possibilities of stage illusion are indeed
great when in the hands of one who is
a master of the art.

FELL INTO THE HOLD.
Two seamen Seriously Imperil on the
Hibernian.


A serious accident happened on the
steamer Hibernian yesterday morning
when Coleman Connolly and Michael
Casey, two longshoremen who were GEM
ployed disoharging her cargo of coal, fell
through harchway to the bottom of the
hold, distance of some twenty-five feet.
The work of disoharging the coal had
Just commenced and what is known as
the stronghold, beam running fore and
aft across the hatchway upon which the
hatch rests, had not been removed. The
men were upon a platform resting on
this beam and they had a coal barrow
with them.
AS the heavy coal tub was being
hoisted up rapidly from the hold it struck
this beam, knocking 1t from it's position,
which threw the platform with the two
men and the wneelbarrow through the
hatch. Casey escaped with slight inju-
ries and was able to walk to his home on
Washington street. Connolly was not SO
fortunate and was severely injured.
The ambulance was called and he was
taken to the Maine General hospital. He
had a severe cut on his head and 1t is
thought that his skull was fractured.
Both arms were broken and 1t is feared
that he is injured internally, although
that has not yet been positively ascer-
tanned. Connolly resides at 244 Fore
street, where he keeps small restau-
rant He is about thirty years old,
is married and has seven children.
