SAD HOMECOMING OF MECHANIC
and Beside Her a Young Man
in Like Condition.

New York, April Newton Schoon-
maker, a mechanic living in Pine
street, Brooklyn. on returning home
found his wife. Leila, lying uncon-
scioes with bullet in her breast and
beside her Pereival Covert, a young
man living in Euclid avenue, also I'M
conscious, with bullet wound in his
head and revolver, of which two
chambers had been discharged, lying
beside him. The man and woman
were taken to the hospital, where
Covert died without recovering con-
seriousness.
Mrs. Schoonmaker, who is % years
of age, recovered sufficiently to say
that Covert had shot her and shot
himself. She made no explanation of
the cause OF the tragedy and her con-
dition was such that it was impossi-
Bile to obtain any further statement
fIom her. Schoonmaker himself was
unable to thrown any light on the
affair.
On the dead man the police found
two letters, one addressed to Coyert's
mother, Mrs. Emily Covert, of St Al.
bans, Vt, and the other to George
Carstairs. In these letters the police
say Covert admitted that he had EN-.
bezzled several thousand dollars from
the Williamsburg Trust company, in
whose branch Office in Brooklyn he
was employed and that he had de-
termined to kill himself Mrs. Schoon-
maker is the mother of two young
children, who were asleep in the room
next to that in which the shooting
took place There is little hope of her
recovery,
Schoonmaker is the chief engineer
Of the Western Union building in New
York. He recently demonstrated with
Covert about his attentions to his
wife, with whom Covert was acquaint-
ed prior to her marriage to Schoon-
maker two years ago.

SIX MEN ARE KILLED
And AS Many More Likely to
Die as Result of
Explosion.l
DEAD AND INJURED ALL SLAvS.
Men Working in Pit Are Almost
Burned Alive by Hot Dust-FeIlow
Workmen Rush to Their Aid and
Pull Them from the Hole.

Pittsburg, April Without warn
ing % workmen, all Slavs, were
caught in a trap at the Edgar Thorn
son blast furnace of the United States
Steel corporation at Braddock and as
a result six ere dead, three more are
expected to die of their injuries and
1G others are more or less injured
The accident, an explosion, which
added another long list to the record
of fearful and fatal accidents at the
furnaces, occurred just before the
men were quitting work
The names of the dead follow:
Joseph Bubilini, Joseph Bolon, John
Pillar, Andrew Berritz, Joseph Pillar,
John Shotak, Michael Steveko.
Those seriously burned are: MI.
chael Skunder, Frank Sebula, Steven
Bobon. J. Sebula. Michael Miller, Jo-
seph Pubalena, George Kodok.
All of the men dead an dinjured
are grown men, but their ages are not
known. Some of them are married
and all resided in the Slav coloney In
Braddock The bodies of the dead
were taken to Braddock by an under
taker, with instructions from Coroner
Jesse NJ McGeary to have the dead
positively identified by relatives or
friends. Bubilini was also known as
Smith, but he was so badly burned
that had he not told his name before
he died his identity would probably
have remained unknown. he was the
first to die.
fearful results occurred at furnace
81" one of the largest at the plant
1t was caused by what is known
among furnacemen as a "hang," that
is, the contents of the furnace sud-
denly drop down and cause loud ex.
plosions, which force white hot dust
down through large pipe into a pit
1t was in This pit that the men were
working and their only means of exit
from the hole was by a small ladder
When the dust came down in tons the
ladder was burned Ander it and the
men were unable to save themselves
When the hot dust poured down
upon the unfortunate workmen 1t was
said at the plant that their screams
for help could be heard a block from
the plant. Fellow workmen, hearing
their cries above the noise of the fur
races, rushed to their aid and pulled
them from the hole of death They
were removed as quickly as possible
to the emergency hospital at the
plant. where they were attended b.
Drs. Charles Clifford and w. E. Stew
art, and then rushed to Mercy hos
pital in special cars on the Pittsburg
Railways company and the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad
The men more seriously injured
were SO badly burned that in remov-
ing what little of clothing remained
on their bodies flesh in strips also
came off. The men were in some
cases burned and blistered over their
entire bodies and their sufferings
were terrible. Their recovery is con-
sidered impossible.

The subject of this sketch, mention
of whose death was made in the col
umns of this paper last week, deserves
something more than a passing notice.
Mr.. Beeghly was born at Stoyes-
town, Somerset county, Penna., Nov.
10Th, 1921. Married Lydia Flirkinger
April 3Oth, 1913. Five children were
born to them: Jacob and Joseph A.

Mr.. and Mrs. Beeghly moved from
Somerset county in 1S4S and settled
on the farm which they have occu
pied ever since, and through the lab
ors and efforts of Mr.. Beeghly it is one
among the finest farms of Garrett
county. Their children are all located
within a mile of their old home.
He was member of the German
Baptist Brethren church with which
he united at an early age, and served
in the Office of deacon for many years.
He led a quiet and exemplary life
and was neighbor of sterling quail
titles. He was a man of his word and
when approached was alwaysin good
humor. His enemies were few, if any.
He will be missed in the home, church

years ago, and at another time very
sore arm. About three years ago his
right side was stricken with paralysis
of which he never fully recovered; the
immediate cause of his death was asth-
ma and dropsical effusion of the heart.
During his long sickness he was very
patient and always willing to submit
to Gods will His home was welcome
place forrelatives and friends, of which
he had many, and who remem bered
him in his lonely hours.
Until the last few days of his life he
recognized every one and would greet
them with a smiling face. His last
hours were spent in teri ible misery.
To him the Angel ofDeath was well
come visitor.
Besides the widow and four children
named he leaves two sisters, Mrs.
Mary Reitz, of Friedens, Pa, and
Mrs. Elizabeth Metzgar, of Hoov,

Dear Sir: congratulate you on the i'm
proved service that you are giving and the
California. This fulfillS a p prophecy which
l made about 1874 or rs. The new departure
for the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Rail
way will certainly bring it a great deal of
business.
GEO. H. DANIELS,
General Passenger Agent,
New York Central & Hudson River r. II. Co.
The above shows something of the
tremendous interest taken in the in
auguration of through service to Ne
braska, Colorado, Utah, California
and North Pacific Coast points by
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railway, in connection with the
Union Pacific Railroad. Railroad
men today predict its great popular
ity, as Mr.. Daniels, a generation ago,
predicted that such a natural route
would some day become an important
part of the great transcontinental
highway.
The new overland service includes
three through trains, Chicago to San
Francisco, every day.
In addition to standard sleepers,
Chicago to San Francisco, on all of
the through trains, The California
Express, at 1925 p. m, carries tour
