THREE CARS WRECKED.
Fortunately Nobody was Hurt But
Passenger Trains Were
Greatly Delayed.

The West Jersey and Seashore Rail-
road Company Monday had consid-
erable trouble with its freight trains,
two wrecks occurring during the
afternoon.
Spreading rails just east of the Sec
ond ward school house caused a hold
up for several hours early in the
afternoon, and..a wrecking train from
Philadelphia was sent for to get the
cars in shape again. Passenger trains
were held up, and inconvenience
suffered.
Freight trains were to follow the 5
O'Clock passenger train Monday
afternoon and there was another dis
aster. When the freight train
reached the point of the earlier
trouble one of the cars jumped a frog
and toppled over, falling in a ditch.
The two succeeding cars Immediately
teleScoped, all three being splintered
into kindling wood One of the cars
was filled with canned goods and an
other with glass. The freights were
badly damaged. A horse in another
car escaped injury.
A brakeman was upon the top of
the first wrecked car and saved him
self by leaping into a tree as the car
toppled over.
The wrecking crew managed to
clear the tracks and repair the dam
age to the rails by working all night.

little black terrier belonging to Mr..
Frank Watson of CohanSey street.
The dog after running-the streets for
some time entered the yard of Mrs.
Heintz, on Cohansey street, and
there it tried to chew the teeth
of a rake lying. there; this only
enraged the cur on finding it could
not be chewed then a large piece of
wood was next the prey of the dog.
1t then entered the house and after
frightening the occupants passed on
out. Walter Heintz who was at
home was not frightened however but
taking his gun started in pursuit of
the mad cur. He overlook it how
ever and killed it. The head was
nearly torn from the body of the dog
and that it was mad was proven by
the froth in its throat.
