The coming Of Beach & Bowers
minstrel, under canvas, on Sept.
q. is heralded with pleasure. Its
now the oldest minstrel company
on the road under one continuous
management and we are very for
tunate in getting a performance
from them II will furnish more
fun and entertainment than any
show Of It's kind. This season is
all new, original and funny. The
singing is as perfect as is heard in
the very best Of opera companies.
The specialties can not be beaten
and are decidedly laughable and
intensely interesting as Beach &
Bowers have called TO their assist
snce an array of talent that places
thei. company in the van Of min
strelsy The minstrel boys are
young. active and up to date and
seem untiring in their effort to
please, and they arouse the specta-
tors to the highest pitch Of en-
thusiasm.

was told to take the east siding at Port
land. about twenty miles ahead.
As they neared Portland the conductor
noticed that the speed did not seem to be
slackening and he became nervous. He
went to the rear car and stationed himself
near the valve of the safety brake.
AS the same speed continued. Purple sig

He signaled again. without response. and
almost at the same time he heard the To-
connective leave the tracks at the switch.
He pulled open the valve. setting the air
brakes. The train ran for almost 500 yards
further and then the locomotive was de-
rallied. He shouted 10 him. but received no
answer. The engineer was dead.
The passengers were transferred to train
NO: 8. which arrived at New York at IL
O'Clock. They were unanimous in their
praise of the conductor ard congratulated
each other on their escape.
