A DISASTROUS WRECK
Of a Freight Train Two Miles West of
Oakland Last Friday.

Nine cars loaded with coal from the
Fairmont region which made up a
por ton of the cargo of an east-bOund
freight train on the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, were wrecked at Of
futt's Mill, two miles west of Oakland
on last Friday about noon, resulting
in the complete blockade of both
tracks of the road for more than five
hours and a monetary loss Of several
thousand dollars.
The train was being hauled by an
engineer from the Fourth Division
who, it is alleged, was unacquainted
with the grades along this section Of
the road and was running at top
speed when a flange broke derailing
the cars which were sent flying in all
directions. The tracks were consider
ably torn up and the cars with their
contents remaining on the roadbed
were dumped over the bank by wreck
ing crews from Piedmont and Rowles-
burg which arrived about an hour at
ter the accident occurred.
None of the trainmen on thefreight
were injured although one of the
brakemen had narrow escape and
saved himself by jumping.

5ELF-I INFLICTED WOUND
ENDED IN DEATH.

Himself. Died Saturday Evening.

MOrning-Act Attributed 10 III
Health Followed by MelanchoIia

Mr.. James Sampson Broadwater.
retired merchant and prominent cit
izen of Grantsvillo, this county, who
shot himself in the right temple last
Wednesday morning with suicidal in
tent, as published in these columns
on Thursday following, died at his
home as result Of his seIf-innicted
wound on Saturday evening at
o'clock.
MIR. BrO2dwater was born and rear
ed at Grantsville, being a son of the
venerable liking Billy" Broadwater.
who survives him at the advanced
age of ninety-three years, his anniyer-
sary occurring on the same dav that
his son fired the fatal bullet which
terminated his life. Up to a few
years ago Mr.. Broadwater was active
ly engaged in mercantile pursuits at
Grantsville but owing to bis health
failing he sold out and retired from
business, since which time he resided
quietly at his home with his wife and
four children, all of whom survive
him. The reason advanced by Mr..
Broadwater's friends for the act which
had such a disastrous fnality is that
his health instead of improving be-
came steadily poorer, and fearing
that he would become a helpless in
valid, concluded to put himself out
of the way, hence the deed
Mr.. Broadwater was in shed adj
joining his stablein the rear of his
home when he made the attempt up
on his life, using 32-calibre revolver.
He fired one bullet which entered his
brain at the right temple and shortly
afterward was found by some mem
Der Of his family. Deputy Sheriff
James Frantz, of Oakland, who was
in GrautsviIle on business that day,
assisted in carrying Mr.. Broadwater
into his residence. In twenty min
utes afterward Mr.. Broadwater re
gained consciousness and conYersed
with his family concerning the mat
ter but relapsed shortly afterward in
to Inconsistencies in which condition
he remained until his death occurred
on Saturday night as above stated.
Until recently Mr.. Broadwater was
without church relationship when he
became a member of the N. e. church.
His funeral took place on Tuesday
morning from his late home and was
largely attended by relatives and
friends.
He is survived by his wife, a half
sister of the late Thomas W. Frost,
and four children, all of them grown.

WAS MARRIED FRIDAY AFTERNOON
And Made the Plunge to Destruction
the Same Night-fiis Condition Is
Considered Hopeless by Physici-
ans.

Thomas Benton Frantz, a well
known resident of Confluence, Pa,
and member of the city council of
that borough, is lying at the point of
death in Confluence from injuries re
ceiYed Friday night by a leap from
the second story window of his resi-
dence.
Mr.. Frantz was married Friday
afternoon to Miss Alice Wyatt, who
had been his housekeeper for several
years. That night after the two had
retired the groom suddenly threw
open the window of their bridal
chamber located on the second floor
of the house and jumped to the street
in his night clothing. He broke his
left leg at the hip and is so badly in
jured internally that he has slight
prospects of recovering.
Mr.. Frantz is a son of the late jack
son Frantz of Selb sport, and cous-
in of Sheriff Frantz of Oakland. I'm
til the railroad was built through Sell

give any reason for the rash act com
mitted by the groom.
