Susquehanna. April 1S.-As an on
tario and Western fast train on Thurs
day swept around a curve into u cut
near Poyntelle, an enormous bald eagle
was seen on the track by the fireman,
who was at the moment peering
through the forward window of the
cab.
The pilot was upon his eagleship be-
fore he could rise, struck him, tumbled
him up on the frame, which he clutched
wooden beam with one of his great
claws and held fast. Before the bird
had time to recover from the fright and
shock of the collision with the pilot
the fireman had climbed along the rum
ming board and was upon the noble
bird, when savage tussle ensued.
The eagle fought viciously for his
liberty. and the fireman was equally
determined on making him his prison
er The train was going at the rate of
forty-fve miles an hour The man had
to hold by one hand with all his power
to one of the guard rails below the
headlight to keep his footing as the
engine swayed from side to side, and
bounded over the inequalities of the
track in its headlong race against time,
and manage the eagle with the other
hand.
But the bird was finally secured af-
ter he had nearly torn the flremans

talons that are fully four inches long

The Wyoming conference closed its
sessions at Kingston yesterday. Nat
urally the matter that excited the
greatest attention was the appoint
ments. The appointments printed in
yesterdays Tribune for the Wyoming
district were practically correct.
1t was announced before the close of
the morning session that the appoint
ments would not be read until all the
business of the conference was con-
cluded. In fact they were not read
until SIS, after the bishop had made
an address when as usual. his mag
nctic presence and deep fervor moved
his audience with a power given to
few men. He described his early ap-
pointments and disappointments and
endeavored To cause the brethren to
feel contented with their lot.
1t was a great shaking up that
struck the conference, and in fact
many of the ministers were. as it is
termed. ''up in the air. until the last
moment of the cabinet session. Sever
al are rather dazed yet since landing.
1T is a pathetic thing to sit and wait
for the announcement of fate in the
shape of the bishop and presiding
elders to decide ones future, and many
of the ministers did not know until the
appointments were read out in open
conference. Many We're not happy at
the changes affecting their home ties
and their closest interests. but no
complaints were heard, although the
bishop invited any one to write letters
OF protest to him today,
