Failed to Show.

The proposed Ole Olsen ir. show at
Loves hall Thursday evening did not
materialize. Manager Markham had
some disagreement with Mrs. Love re-
garding payment for the use of the hall
He claims that she agreed to accept a
certain sum of money on account of
rent, before the performance, and the
balance after the show was over. About
six O'Clock last evening Markham found
that she demanded the full amount in
advance. Thereupon he went on the
street and announced that no perform
ance could be held. His speech was
followed by one from John Donovan,
one of the Chinn variety troupe. He
appealed to his hearers to help a
brother in distress. This appeal
aroused the sympathy of the audience,
and DR.. Gall, with his usual kind
heartedness, accompanied by Chez
ArdittO, passed round the hat among
the crowd, with the result that SIS. IS
was collected. and paid to Mrs. Mark

to herself and husband

A weak stomach weakens the man,
because it cannot transform the food
he eats into nourishment. Health and

Butterick Patterns at Redlick's.

Tim Mahoney, the engineer of the
central Eureka, met with a peculiar
accident last week, incident to the use
of fuel oil in the furnace. From some
cause the pumping apparatus for feed
ling the oil to the furnace got out of
keller, and the fire was eXtinguished
to fix the trouble. During the sus-
pension, gases must of accumulated in
the furnace, owing to the seepage of
oil. At any rate, when the engineer
started to relight the fire, by throwing
in lighted ball of infammable material,
there was an explosion, the flames
shooting out in front, and burning
Mahoney considerably about the face.
Fortunately, he escaped without serious
injury. The damage to the furnace
was slight, and every thing was put in
running order again in short time.

PAYMAsTER KILLED BY DYNAMITE.
Yesterday afternoon on the Middletown
road, about fifteen miles from Washing
ton, Pa, Samuel T. Ferguson, of the
Ferguson Construction Company, of
Pittsburg, was murdered, and his Sec
retary, Charles L. Martin, of Cincinnati,
was fatally injured. The two men were
driving along the road in buggy, carry
ing $S, 500 in cash with which to pay off
some Of their men employed on construc-
ton work along the line of the Wabash
Railroad, when suddenly an explosion
ofdynamite in the roadway tore the rig
to pieces, killed Ferguson outright, and
threw Martin 200 feet, tearing his left
arm almost from the socket. 1t has been
learned that two men, supposed to be
Poles. placed the dynamite in the road
for the purpose of killing Paymaster
Ferguson, and had arranged to explode
it by means of sn electric battery. The
satchel containing the money is missing.
Two suspects are under arrest IN the
camp Of the construction company, near
the village. So quickly was everything
accomplished that the men who are I'M
plicated got away with their booty be-
fore they could be overtaken, although
the county authorities believe that If the
right men are not those under arrest,
they will have little difficulty in finding
them.
