stephen Rice, manager of the Nor
gan store met with a serious accident
at the Delaware and Hudson depot
Saturday morning Mr.. Price had been
to the bank and had with him the
cash to pay the Blue Ridge Coal COM
pany employees. He alighted at the sta
tion from the Oil a. m. train, deposit
ed the cash which was in two leather
grips, in the wagon which was in wait
ing. He then attempted to take his
seat beside the driver, William Will
liams when the mule team started up
throwing Mr.. Rice forward. In fall-
ing he struck the wagon pole between
the mules, one of the lines was under
him the team started on a run. VII
liams tried his best to stop them, and
having only the use of one line could
only swing them around in a circle
and up against the depot. When the
wagon struck the depot Mr.. Rice was
thrown from his perilous position on
the wagon tongue and both wheels OF
the heavy delivery wagon passed over
him. The team continued their flight
and when they turned upon the track
at north end of the depot Driver Will
liams jumped, as the team was making
straight for the passenger train that
was just pulling out. The wagon struck
telegraph pole and the team came to
a sudden stop. They were taken off
the track as the down passenger
rounded the curve. Mr.. Rice was
placed aboard the down train and taxi
en- to his home in Scranton. His in
juries consist Of large cut upon the
head and severe bruises about the limbs
and body. Had the team ran away any
distance they would have no doubt
scattered the eight or ten thousand dol
lars that was in the wagon during the
exciting episode.

BoSToN's BIG STATION.
1t Is the Largest Edifce of It's Kind
in the World.


From Harpers Weekly.
The Great South Railway station in
Boston, the largest edifice of it's kind
in the world, was opened for use on
the first day of this year. 1t provides
terminal facilities for two great rail-
way companies-the New York. New
Haven and Hartford and the Boston
and Albany, thus accommodating the
several trunk lines that enter the city
on the south. 1t was first suggested
by Hon. Josiah Quincy, just before his
first Inauguration as mayor, three
years ago, and construction was begun
Il little less than two years ago. The
new station is centrally located in the
heart of the business section of Boston.
The city cO-ODerated with the railway
companies by re-arrangirg the street
system about the station at an enor-
nous cost. The location. at the corner
OF Summer street and Atlantic avenue,
with one side of the station bordering
the harbor-front along a broad street,
is exceptionally good for a monumental
effect. Approached by Federal or sum
mer street, the effect of the magnifi-
cen: curving facade, with its breadth
VI 30 ictlt Is imposing.
The station was built and is owned
and operated by the Boston Terminal
company, composed of trustees repre-
senting the several railroad corpora
tions that furnished the funds. 1t was
planned and designed by George B.
Francis, resident engineer, and Shep-
ley Rutan & Coolidge, architects. The
total frontage on three streets is 2l9O
feet. The building covers thirteen
acres and there are twenty-five acres
Of yard room besides. The maximum
dimensions Of the building are S5Ox725
feet The head house on Summer street
and Atlantic avenue is five stories high,
and above the first story is occupied
by the offices Of the Terminal company
and the railway companies. The vast
train-shed is cO2 feet long by so feet
wide, and has a height of l12 feet. The
light and delicate looking steel trusses
of the enormous roof have a clear sweep
in one great curve from side to side
upheld by three spans that divide the
area into what might be called nave
and two aisles.
4 remarkable feature is the practical
doubling of the train capacity by prn-
viding for the suburban service in a
subway space beneath the main
platforms of the train-shed where the
great width o. the station enables the
construction Of two loops of tracks,
over which, by the use of either cleo
trlcity or compressed air-which will
probably be adopted for the suburban
services OF the railways entering the
station-two thousand trains daily, in
and out, can be accommodated. As
soon as all the railways will begin
using the station there will enter and
leave it 25,OOO,0OO persons a year The
twenty-eight sub-tracks on the main
