A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
DAVID LAWSON'S LIFE IN
STANTLY CRUSHED OUT.
Run Over by Cars While Attend
ing to His Duties in the
Switching Yard.

At 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon
David Lawson, a yard foreman IN the
employ of the Southern Pacific Com
pany, had his life crushed out beneath
the wheels of a car on one or the
tracks on the river front near the foot
of street
The PIacerville local was just pulling
in and Mr.. Lawson stood on the track
on which it was running and gave
the engineer the signal that the track
was clear. When the train approached
him he stepped back from the track
and onto the one adjoining.
A switching engine was backing a
string of several cars down the track
on which Lawson stepped upon leay-
ing the main line, but owing to the
noise made by escaping steam from
the approaching engine and the clat-
ter of the train, he did not perceive MS
danger.
Two employees Of the railroad COM
pany saw the cars bearing down upon
Mr.. Lawson. and shouted to warn him,
but their voices were drowned by the
clatter of the incoming train, and In
an instant the car struck him, threw
him; TO the ground with his body across
the rail. and two of its wheels passed
over him. literally cutting him IN two

"THE DISTRICT SCHOOL"
A Laughab1e Evening at the West
minister Church.

"The District School, a laughaDla
entertainment at the Westminster
Presbyterian Church last night, was a
success in every way, and the care with
which the program was arranged re-
f1ected great credit on Mrs Frank VAL
entine. who acted as teacher, as well
as on all the pupils (men and womeD
who aided.
This unique entertainment was under
the direction of the Ladies' Aid Society,
who are active in Christian work The
entertainment gave a fine idea Of the
oldfashioned district school, where
spelling. reading and writing are the
chief branches taught. Last nights
representation portrayed the school Of
the olden time. before pedagogics be-
came so much of a science as it is to-
day. The costuming was ludicrous. A
commercial traveller, whose weight
crowds 800. dressed like a boy of 10,
wearing a red wig, his face painted
until he looked like a child born in a
brick yard, was only one of the many
incongruities. He created much
laughter as he faltered in reading SEN
tences of three syllables. The young
ladies were charming as little girls from
the old-time school. and the whole en-
tertainment was a success. 1t concluded
with a spelling match in which the
audience participated, and with refresh
mentS that none missed.

Postum in such a way that it is taste
less and unpalatable. Every one who

may depend upon it that any one who
says they do not like Postum has never
really had a good cup of it. The whole
secret is in the boiling. 1t must be
boiled long enough to bring out the
flavor.
II suffered terribly with dull head
