The cause of the wreck is said to be
due to the carelessness of the Porter

LATER PARTICULARS.
The Porterville train came in from
Porterville and left the caboose on the
main line and then went on the siding.
The women who were killed arrived
in the morning from Los Angeles and
were compelled to wait until last even
ing for the train to Porterville. They
boarded the caboose as it stood in front
engine and some cars were just being
coupled to the caboose, when the crash
came. The heavy passenger engine tore
through the caboose as if it were card
board, and the hapless inmates were
crushed and thrown aside.
The mail and baggage and express
cars were derailed, and served to pre-
vent the heavy train from being tele-
scoped.
Passengers on No. S were shaken up
and bruised by the jar of the collision,
but only one man received a serious in
jury which took the shape of a broken
arm. His name could not be ascer-
tanned last night
At l o'clock this Thursday morning
DR.. Taggart of this city, who went to
the wreck on a special train, gave it
as his opinion that the fireman and en-
gineer would both die.
The track walker was still uncon-
scious at / a. M. but so far as ascer-
tained, his condition was not that of a
dying man and hopes are entertained
for his recovery.
Mrs. Majors and Mrs. Larue were
both dead when taken from the wreck.
Mrs. Ross was still alive, although she
died about midnight. The bodies were
frightfully mangled and bruised, that

The blame of the catastrophe appears
to be with the crew of the Porterville

time, and to make the carelessness
more criminal, the passenger train was
some minutes late. Last night there
were no passengers for Formosa, and
the train passed the station with full
speed, not seeing any lights on the
caboose. The tail lamps on the caboose
were on the opposite end of the car and
were not readily discerned. The car
was not protected by a flag, nor were
there any torpedoes out.
A sad feature of the accident is the
anguish of friends and relatives who
were waiting their arrival at Porter.

Angle of a Horses Foot.-By the
angle Of a horses foot is meant the
angle formed by the wall and the
ground surface of the foot at the center
of the toe. In order to get the feet
alike in shoeing trotters h~orseshoers
usually measure the length of the toe
and the height of the heel from the

is we'll to remember that different
horses may have toes and heels Of the
same length and height, and yet the
angle of the foot may be different IN
each case. A study of a picture of the

A Dynamite Explosion.

Melville Echo.
 The family of Mr. ". B, Wood. who lives about three miles east of Yell vile had very narrow escape last Sunday morning. Mr. Wood had about five pounds of dynamite and a box of caps, that he had purchased for mining purposes, and concealed them in an unused fire place in his residence. None of his family, except his wife, knew it, and on Sunday morning his daughter swept the room, and quite lot of old papers having accumulated in the fireplace she struck q match and set them afire. Her mother who was in an adjoining room, discovered what she had done and entered lbe room, telling her of tine dynamite being in the fireplace, she began pouring water on it, when the explosion came. She was thrown backwards onto the floor, her clothing almost blown off her, yet strange to say she was not seriously hurt. Her face and eyes were consid- erably burned and the soot from the fire place was blown into her face, otherwise she was seemingly uninjnred. little girl who was at the .ine standing beside tne fire place near the wall, escaped entirely unhurt, The mother, who was just entering the room, was pretty seriously burt iD the back and hips, having been struck by some of the lumber of the house. The room in which it occurred, was almost entirely wrecked. The chimney was blown down, one side of the room completely blown out. except two studding. and two other sideB nearly entirely blown away; the cell ing overhead and the siding on tae siding the room across the hall, WAS all turn loose. The cook room was badly damaged and the furniture smashed up generally. Dr. Thompson was sent for, who hastily went to The scene and done what he could for the Lnforiuuates.
