A FALSE STORY DENIED.

In several of the state and New York city papers of Saturday there was a dispatch from New Haven stating that Edward T. Trowbr,dge was dying at the city hospital there from alcoholism. It is also stated that over twenty years ago MT. Trowbridge made VOW that he would die drunkard because he had been tilted by Litchfield woman. How such a story could have started is be- yond comprehension. As far as the woman in question is concerned it is absolutely false in every particular. She was not only never engaged to MT. Trowbridge, but never knew or heard of any such man. A careful investiga- ton shows that no one in Litchfield ever had any knowledge of Edward T. Trowbridge. As the story is not only absolutely false, but very cruel as well, the Enquirer will be greatly indebted to the state papers if they will give as much space to this denial as they did to the New Haven dispatch.-Lit Enquirer.

ELEVEN KILLED.
Railroad Train Dashes Into Crowd of
 Workmen.

New York, Nov. 1S.-Eleven section men who were at work repairing tracks were run over and killed on the Hack ensack meadows, near Marion at o'clock this morning by the Millstone local train on the Pennsylvania rail- road. Several other men were serious ly injured. It was one of the most serious accidents in the history of the road. The men, without the slightest warning of their fate, and while in the performance of duty, were moved down by the locomotive. Nine of the laborers were killed outright and two others died within an hour after the ac- cidemt. There was a heavy fog and the men were unable to see the ap- proach of the train whose noise was drowned by the train that had passed but few minutes before.

FIRE !!

Last Tuesday afternoon between 4
and o'clock. the fire gong sounded,
and in a very few minutes the fire was
located in the east part of town at
the residence of Rev. Gunckel. The
fire department turned out consisting
of a chemical engine, several men and
boys and a quart can. In spite of the
fact that the engine refused to work
Immediately every household article
was saved by our best citizens who
worked quickly and valiantly. 1t
might be said the delay i'm the engine
was due to the fact that the chemicals
in the jugs were frozen.
The ladies of the town turned out
and the work they done ought to put
to shame the gentlemen of leisure
who leaned against the fence with
their hands in their pockets and
watched them.
1t is thought that the fire originated
from defective fiue. The house be-
longed to VIM. Damn, of Elkins, w.

KILLED.
An Unknown Man Killed By Section
Men

From the Sharon Springs Times
An unknown man, probable - years
old, was shot and almost instantly
Killed by Gus Hesler early yesterday
morning, and the cOroner's jury re-
turned a verdict of justifiable homi-
eide.
The circumstances leading up to
this killing started Thursday night
when the dead man, known as Robert
Bailey, held up the agent at Weskan
and took his pocket-book from him.
The arrival of passenger train No. 3 at
Weskan scared the robber away He
proceeded on toward Sharon Springs.
and when about four miles west of
town, stopped and built a big fire out
of the snow fence, which was reported
by the engineer on passenger train
No. due here at 3:27 a. m. The sec
tion men on both sections were order
ed out to put out the fire, and upon
their arrival found Bailey sound
asleep near the fire. When awakened
he drew 32-caliber revolver and fired
once at close range at the section men
without injuring them, and then
turned and fled, in the meantime
siiooliHS siSiiH tie SecllOn men
were armed and opened fire. The
robber fell, and again fired without
result, and finally gave up. He was
loaded on tile hand car, but died be-
fore reaching town. An examination
Showed seven buck-sh OF wounds in his
back. Nothing was found on his per-
son to identify him save a small MEM
Orandum book with the name Robert
Bailey" The dead man wore good
clothes. and had 81. p in money The
agent at WeSlxan positively identified
him as the man who held him up
Thursday night.
