Tried to Skin En-.

There were many petty impositions
practiced on some of the unsuspecting
visitors that came in on the B. G. O.
excursion Sunday, and some of them
at least will not have a very favorable
impression of their treatment here.
They were made to pay double for eat
ables at several restaurants and
lunch stands.
Some of the street car eondustors, If
all reports are true, considered the ex-
cursionists legitimate prey to be
plucked. They were made to pay dou-
BILE price in many instances, and one
party got off an outer loop car at the
corner of Market and Fifth streets be-
cause the conductor told him he would
have to pay 80 cents for a trip on the
outer loop. He told a Parkersburg
friend of the occurrence and was ad-
vlsed to notify the street railway Of
ficials. Parties who heard of the af-
fair took the number of the car and
procured the name of the conductor

A Needle Mystery.

For some time Mr.. William Hopp
has been treated for sciatlca without
any apparent relief. Last Friday ne
felt something protrudlng through his
clothes from his thigh, and on closer
examination he found needle stick
ing in the flesh, which he at once ex-
tracted. The needle was discolored,
probably from the chemical action of
the blood, and had evidently been in
his body for some time. but never ap-
pearlng until last Friday It was pre-
sumably the cause of his trouble, as he
las been getting better since the
needle was removed. How the needle
entered his body is a mystery to him.
as he has no recollection of having a
needle enter his flesh at any time. 1t
is thought that the needle entered his
body through the stomach. 1t having
been swallowed in food.
.ds is another peculiar case of a
needle entering the body and travelling
about through the tissues until finally,
by the action Of the muscles, etc, 1t is
forced through the skin. Other cases
are on record where needles have trav-
ersed the entire length of the body
without producing much inconven-
fence or pain.

thrown from the wagon and the
wheels passed over him, but he was
not badly hurt. The horse continued
in its mad flight down to the lower end
of Third street, where it was stopped,
but not before the wagon was wrecked
and the horse bruised and skinned up
badly.

Averted an Accident Bot Lost
His Life.

A sudden and fatal accident occur
red on the B. & o, s. w, west Of Bel
pre-, near Porterheld, on Saturday af-
ternoon about o'clock.
McGraw's section hands were at
work repairing the track at the point
of the accident wnen No. 10 east,
Rnown as the mountain flyer, came
laundering along. All the men had
plenty of time to get out of the way
and stepped to the side of the track.
One of them, David Markley, discover
ed that the track guage had been left
on the track, and he stepped toward
the rails to get it out of the way and
succeeded in doing so, but he was not
quick enough in getting himself out of
the way. While still in a STOPPING po-
sltion the cylinder of the engine struck
him glancing blow alongside the
head, throwing him backward and
causing instant death Markley's
skull was fractured, but the blow left
no mark His face was bruised some
what when It came in contact with the
gravel.
The victim of the unfortunate acci-
dent was married man and resided at
Rockland, and the remains were taken
to that place
The removal of the track guage
probably ayerted a serious accident, as
it no doubt would have thrown the en-
gine from the track had it been allow
ed to remain there.-Sentinel

RUNS INTO ICEBERG.
Thrilling Experience of the Steam
ship City of Rome.
Crunchcs on Mountain of Ice ana Is
Lifted seven Feet ont Of water,
Then Gracefully slides
on Again.

The Anchor liner City of Rome
steamed into New York the other day
with 90T thankful passengers aboard
and a story of an encounter with an ice
berg 1000 miles from port. The day
was foggy about $3.50 o'clock in the
afternoon. The lookout on the portside
bawled in stentorian tones: "Ice dead
ahead!"
Capt. Young signaled to reverse the
engines at full speed, and the wheel had
been thrown hard over to sheer the YES
sci to port to avoid the berg.
The City of Rome had been GO
ing forward at only three or four
knots an hour, but she struck the
berg almost before she began to
feel the backward pull of the pro-
peller blades, and just as she began
to veer off in response to the rudder
there was a crash and crunching, and
then the big ship began to rise, five, six,
seven feet in the air. The crunching be-
came louder, she listed to port bit,
and then sank down as gracefully as she
had come up and in less time than 1t
takes to tell 1t the fog had closed in
Down in the saloon at the moment of
the crash the dishes went flying from
the tables, some of the women shrieked
as they were nearly jolted from their
seats, some of the men swore regardless
of the presence of the women, and
everything was in confusion.
In every other part of the ship where
the passengers were there was fright
that they will not forget as long as they
live. Here and there passengers
grabbed life preservers and made for
the deck with them. Others fell on
their knees and began to pray. The Of
fiecers and the 297 members of the crew
were In their places ready to man the
boats. Those whose duty it was to at
tend to passengers in case of accident
were running hither and thither, shout
ing that there was no danger and doing
ell they could to avert panic.
The captain. after an examination
announced that the ship had not been
damaged. and tho passengers were
finally quieted. The only visible dam
age that was done by the collision with
tho berg was the knocking off Of one
elbow Of the gilded agurehead and the
bending of the body stay. The passen-
gers presented resolutions of thanks to
Capt. Young, his officers and crew for
their courage and discipline.
