SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Florence Citizen Pushed off Tram
at Canon.

A. NJ. johnson who resides on
Frazer avenue met with quite ser
ious accident Tuesday evening which
almost cost him his life, and which
will, to say the least lay him up for
sometime to come.
Mr.. johnson went to Canon City
on No. D ON that day, the train
stopping some two blocks east of the
depot. Several people got off when
the train stopped but Mr.. johnson
heard the colored porter tell someone
that the train would pull up to the
depot, so he remained on the steps
until the train passed the depot, when
he says some one came down behind
him and pushed him off the train. BY
this time the engine was getting up
pretty good speed and Mr. Johnson's
fall was terrific. He struck the
ground with such force that it render
ed him unconscious for some time
and when he came to himself he was
lying in livery barn. johnson was
sent home on No. 4, and is now con-
fined to his bed His face and arms
are a mass of scratches and bruises,
two teeth We're knocked out and
chunk of flesh was cut out of his lower
lip, while one of the bones in the left
hand was broken. An x-ray test was
made which proved the statement of
the attending physician correct.
Mr.. johnson is resting as easily to-
day as could be expected under the
circumstances and the only wonder is
that he escaped with his life.

Mortified by the sudden returning to

SHAFFER'S CHANCES GOOD.
But There Are Rumors of a Bombshell
to Be Exploded.

Wheeling, W. Va, April 2S.-The
Amalgamated association is getting
well on with its business. The last of the
official reports, that of three trustees.
has been made and today and tomor-
row the convention will have little o.
nothing to do while the committees are
wrestling with the reports. Nothing of
an important character will be brought
before the convention until the commit
to report at the same time.
The con mittee on good of the order
has an interesting fight on in a PROPOSE
ton to remove the general headquarters
from Pittsburg. The western members
favor removing the offices from that
city to any point further west. The
Second district delegates want the office
located at Wheeling, where the assOcia-
ton is stronger in this section than it is
in Pittsburg Columbus also has put in
a bid for the headquarters and is back
ed by TIE extreme western districts
Youngstown. o., is also a claimant The
division of the opposition to Pittsburg
may result in the retention of the head
quarters at that place
The committee on constitution and
general laws has several propositions to
consider, most of which are OF interest
only to association mem bers. An effort
is being n ade to secure the repeal of the
law prohibiting discussion of political
or economic topics. The socialists are
back of this and their claim is that in
stead of assuming a bipartisan atti-
tude the association should take an ae-
tive interest in political economy.
It is not likely this proposition will
meet with favor. An effort is also be-
ing made to increase the treasury SO
that the association viii be in better
shape to take care of strikers and pay
benefits.
It is probable President Shaffers re-
port will receive the endorsement Of the
committee to which it was referred.
Skaters chances of succeeding himself
have Increased largely since his report
was submitted Monday. but the opposi-
ton to him is strong and there are in
timations OF a bomb-shen being explOd-
ed on the floor of the convention that
will cause a reaction against him.

SECTARIAN SCHOOLS CLASH
Catholics Forbidden to Attend ortho-
dox Places of Instruction.

St Petersburg, April 2s.-Bishop ze-
verovieh, the Catholic primate of Wilma,
has issued a diocesan circular forbid

dox parochial schools or other schools
over which orthodox clergy have juris-
diction under pain of receiving the Sc
verest penalties that a Catholic prelate
can inf1ict. In case of disObedience of
this order, both the offending children
and their parents or guardians are to be

circular adduces proof. from official
orthodox documents, that the object Of
these schools is. primarily, of a mission
airy and political character. Catholics
being regarded as ipsO facto enemies of
the Russian empire. 1t has also been
printed in one or two newspapers, but
the authorities have forbidden its fur

press car. and gather a gunny-sack of
alleged loot. This elevation of the light

Old Arkansaw, and the swag is planted
by the wellcurb. Three people are
slaughtered in the transaction. but the
household was not in the least disturbed
by the shooting, and knew nothing of

show was not much worse than the

are many people who enjoy them. As

SKULL GRATING.
Piece of Dogs Head Planted on That
of Man.

Saginaw. Mich, April physicians
of the college hospital have performed a
remarkable operation that of grating
a piece of dogs skull upon a human
head. The patient is John Olberg, of
Kenton Houghton county. He is now
recovering from an old affifction.
Olberg's skull was fractured four
years ago. Over the hole, which was an
inch and a half in diameter there form
ed foreign growth. This pressed on
the brain and caused commissions.
When it was decided to operate on
Olberg the doctors chloroformed a dog
and removed q piece of it's skull. The
piece taken out was then implanted in
the opening in Olberg's head.
