ACCIDENT AT NEWPORT.
Conductor Kelley injured In wreck of
Freight Train.

Freight train No. 80. running between
Wsterville and Bangor, in charge of Con
ductor Michael Kelley, and Engineer
Joseph Butler, was wrecked at Newport.
Friday night at 7.30 O'Clock, near the end
of the bridge over the Sebasticook. Con-
ductor Kelley was badly injured.
The train was made up of 81 cars, the
caboose and the engine. On the sharp
grade outside of the town, the train
broke in three sections, with nine cars
and the engine In the first, four ears in
the second, and the remaining 81 cars and
the caboose IN the third.
A part of the cars In the first section
were connected by air brakes so that
section came to standstill when the
break occurred. The second section was
some distance behind. The third SEQ
tion OF 81 cars, having nothing to restrain
1t. crashed into the second section. The
third section had gained a fearful
momentum ON the grade and literally
smashed the four cars to kindling wood.
These cars were loaded with pulp and
pulp wood. This was piled in one heap
over the three parallel tracks. It so
completely blocked the tracks that No. 3,
due TO leave Newport at O'Clock, was
delayed several hours.
When the two rear sections came to-
getber, Conductor Kelley, who was sit
ting in the cabooss, was thrown the
length of the car and badly injured,
though it la thought not seriously. He
was carried to the station. The extent
Of his injuries cannot be learned.
The track was so torn up that even
after the debris was removed It was
necessary to relay the rails.
The exact cause OF the accident cannot
be learned. 1t Is supposed 1t was due
to draw bar pulling out
None Of the q ears left the rails. The
wrecking crews made very good time
OF the repairs, and the Pullman trains
were not delayed long. considering the
exent Of the accident.

WILLIAM ]. RYAN.
The following is self explanatory.

IL would seem unnecessary to call at
tention to "BiIly Ryan" so long q
worthy citizen OF Portland, but in the
rush and hurry of business, men In
Ryan's case are inevitably jostlsd aside
or overlooked. The writer remem bers
how, twenty years ago, he met Ryan, q
hoy stone blind and struggling to earn
his bread by playing ON q harmonica, aud
how he wondered that one SO handicapped
could fight the battle Of life by himself
while so many with the faculties unim-
paired were falling by the wayside. So
he has fought the battle worthily and
won his bread with his own hand, part
Of the year nottoming chairs, in the aut-
umn giving q concert, and the rest of the
time selling almanaos thr3ugh the state.
How he can DO such delicate work as
bottoming chairs, guided solely by the
sense OF touch and travel over the state,
Is marvellous. Lately he has been de :
prived of his little place In the City
building and Is now trying to sell tickets
for his eoEcert. Ambitious to advance
In music he will devote the proceeds Of
his concert to that end, that ne may
the more easily support himself. Will
not those who like TO see a man like
Ryan support himself by his own efforts.
