KILLED in SLEIGH CRASH
HOrnelIsviIle, N Y, Plunged Into
Mourning by Horrible Accident
Railroad Train Hits sleigh at Fun speed
Contalnine Large Party Of womsn-
seven DIE Instantly.

Hornellsyille, n Y.-seven women
were instantly killed when train
struck sleigh on the Stephens cross
ing of the Pittsbufg, Shawmut and
Northern Railroad. Three others were
so terribly hurt that they soon died.
The dead are Mrs. B. Moore. Mrs. Il.
Shaw, Mrs. J. Hallett, Mrs. G. G..
Graves, Mrs G. Thomas, Mrs. M. Gil
lette, Mrs. J. Coates, Mrs Fred Green,
Mrs Fred Boughton and Mrs. D.
Patchen; the injured are, Mrs. S. Row
ley, Mrs. E. Bono and Mrs. W. Clarke.
All were of this city.
Shortly after o'clock in the after.
noon two sleigh loads of women mem
bers of the Universalist Church left
this city as the guests of Mrs. G. G.
Graves for a sleigh ride to Airport,
there to spend the afternoon with Mrs.
Baldwin, an out-of-town member. They
started on their return shortly after
7.30 o'clock in the evening.
Stephens crossing is about mile
from the home of Mrs. Baldwin, where
the afternoon had been spent. 1t is
a dangerous crossing at any time, but
especially dangerous at night The
first sleigh approached it cautiously
and crossed safely. But while cross
ing the occupants saw train coming
They mOtioned to the driver of the
second sleigh to remain behind.
The driver is an old man and failed
to understand them, for he kept COM
ing along. However, as the sleigh
peared the track he saw the head
light of the approaching train and
Jumped, but the horses continued on
pulling the sleigh and its occupants
directly in front of the train. The loco
motive struck the sleigh squarely,
hurting the women through the air and
into the s1owbanlls. Every woman
in the sleigh was killed or injured.
The other members of the party hur-
ried back to the assistance of their
unfortunate companions, and the train
was stopped and backed up to the
crossing. The sight was appalling. It
seemed impossible that any occupant
of the sleigh could have escaped death.
Bodies lay alongside the track for a
distance of 100 yards.
The dead were placed upon the train
and the injured were laid upon inn
provised cots in the baggage car. The
train thea proceeded to Hornellsville.
The news Of the accident had been
telephoned to the city from a farm
house near the crossing, and hundreds
Of friends and relatives of the un-
fortunate women were waiting at the
station. The scenes there were heart
rending.
At the hospital shortly before mid
night it was thought that one of the
injured would die. Engineer w. J..
johnson was in charge Of the engine
and +. j. McLafflin in charge Of the
train that struck the party. No arrests
were made Coroner Sutton will hold
an inquest.

park pictures Of Disease.

A young girl, delicate and sensitive
to cold, has been told from her early
childhood that she must exercise the
greatest possible care, because she has
surely inherited consumptive ten
dency from her mother, who died Of
consumption. This black picture of
consumption and its fearful rayages
on the system stamps indelibly upon
the young life, and prevents healthful,
buoyant growth or prompt physical
reaction.
Dwelling upon these conditions ruins
the appetite, disturbs digestion, cuts off
the assimilation of food, and emacia-
ton sets in, at length, as a result, and,
as II this were not enough to discOur-
age and dishearten the victim, every
body has to tell her how bad she looks,
and how she is growing thinner and
thinner every day. Very often they
say, Now be careful, for you know
your mother went by taking cold, or
by exposure to draft" They give her
cod-liver oil and tonics, but these are
sorry compensations for the resisting
power of the mind, of which th2y have
