NARROW
ESCAPE

New York, Aug. 13.-The north-bound
Boston express OF the New York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad this after
truss Of the new driving bridge over the
railroad tracks at Two Hundred and
Fourth street and Bronx Park and the
truss turned over. precipttating three
other trusses OF the same weight and a
Cotton girder to which they were attached
into the railroad cut.
The last car OF the express was about
300 feet beyond the bridge when the truss
es fell and the train had narrow escape.
Five men were working on the truss
that turned over and three OF them fell.
two OF whom were seriously injured.
Frederick Hartman, 81 years old. will
probably die.
The railroad cut at that place carries
four tracks, two OF the New York. New
Haven and Hartford Railroad and two
OF the Harlem division OF the New York
Central. On account OF the dangerous
work, two fiagmen have been stationed
there since the work of building the
bridge began.
AS soon as the crash came one flagman
ran north and the other south. The nag
man who went south tagged the White
Plains express going 40 miles an hour,
about a quarter Of a mile below the scene
OF the accident The train came TO q
stop about hundred yards below the
bridge The accident resulted In COM
plete tie-up. and II Is said that at least
IL hours will be required to clear the
tracks.
A crew OF railroad employees and a
number of policemen cleared a path
through the woods around the wrecked
bridge.
Policemen were then stationed az
various points along this hundred-yard
path TO guide the passengers OF the many
blocked trains through the woods. III
was estimated that 10000 persons were
transferred by this path to the north
bound trains made up north or the
Urecked bridge.

MIRROR GAVE
UP SECRET
or WEDDING

New York, Aug. 13-Detective Sergeant
James H. keenan, OF the Bath Beach sta
ton. was sticking his mustache In front
OF his mirror after a shave yesterday
when he read, upside down. in the glass;
Much love to you. Sadie. from your
loving husband, Dennis"
The sergeant forgot all about his mus
tache, and seizing the open letter that
lay on the dresser he ran through II and
abstracted the startling knowledge that
his ls-year-old daughter had been bride
for five months.
Miss Sadie was summoned forthwith,
with her mother and others OF the
keenan, family. The detective father
read the letter to her. Instead OF get
ting excited the girl said:
why. yes"-as a matter OF course.
Dennis and were married here Feb
ruary IA. / just thought / wouldn't tell
you till everything was all right"
Dennis" is Dennis Vincent Grady,
salesman we'll known among the younger
folk OF the summer resort. Confronted
by her mother In tears and her father In
wrath, Miss Sadie told how Dennis had
gone 10 Bishop Mcdonnell of Brooklyn.
FIVE months ago and obtained dispensa-
tion that the bans might not be published.
Then he met his Sadie on the street and
said:
II dare you to come with me aud get
| married"
Sadie said she couldn't take the dare
| for she loved Dennis too dearly, and they
went before the Rev. Father Alphonse
| Parker OF the Church OF st. Francis dc
| Chantal, and were made man and wife.
Then both went their way swearing
secrecy.
Sadie had been careless with the letter
that gave the secret away. The elder
| Keenans discussed the matter and sum-
moned young Grady before them. He
told the same story as had their daugh-
! ter.

and forgiven and dispatched TO Provi-
dence. II. l.. to spend months honey

The bride is well known In Batf
