Guilty of Embezzlement.

Henry Fischer was yesterday found
guilty OF embezzling $1,000 of the
money of the defunct Homestead Build.
ing Association of Psrkersburg. He
was accused of embezzlement jointly
with Robert Alexander, who died foul
months ago.
Attorneys for the defendant moved ia
set aside the verdict, and asked for a new
trial, on the ground that one of the
jorors, before whom the case had been
tried, was out of custody of the sheriff
for some time one night. II new trial
is not granted, the case will be appealed
to the Supreme Court:
There was q touching scene in the
courtroom when the verdict of guilty
was returned. When the jurors flee
into the courtroom the clerk asked
Fischer to stand up, which he did
trembling, and tesrs streaming down hi
cheeks. When the verdict was read hs
dropped to his chair, seemingly daxed
His two daughters, who had been almos

Fischer is more than seventy year
old, and his hair is snow white. III,

Killed In Railroad Accident.

Five passengers were killed outright
and score we're injured in a rear-end
collision between 8 regular passenger
train and a military special on the Bos-
ton and Maiue Railroad, directly in front
of the Lanslngburgh depot north Of
Troy, N. Y, yesterday.
The collision took place on a heavy
grade and sharp curve. The passenger
train was one that leaves Boston daily at
$50 q. m. for Albany. 1t consisted OF
Eve cars, baggage car, smoker, day
coach and two psrlor cars, and yesterday
was about one hour late when it reached
Lausingburgh station, waiting there fol
chance to get Into the Troy depot.
Without apparently any warning the
special came laundering along with
18 cars and crashed into the passenger
train, smashing the last two cars, which
were Pullmans, like egg shells.
Both these cars were swept from the
track and rolled down the embankment.
The engine of the special kept on for a
dozen yards aud then turned turtle, the
front end blowing into the ground aud
the car behind being teltscoped by the
tender.
The special was drawing four troops
OF the Fourteenth United States Cavalry
from Fort Ethan Allen TO Newport News,
where they are to embark for Cuba. The
soldiers quickly got to work to rescue
the injured. In comparatively short
time most Of those pinned down by the
wreckage were on their way to the Leon
ard Hospital, near the scene of the
wreck. The dead were removed to an
undertaking establishment.
Many of the passengers on the regular
had left the tain when it came to a
standstill, and were pacing up and down
the track when the crash came.
One mans grief was pitiable. His
mans was j. w. Tracey, and he ran up
and down the track crying for his wife
In few minutes her lifeless form was
identified. They were married Wednes-
day night at Arlington, Mass, and were
on their honeymoon, having planned an
extended trip.
Engineer Thomas Holloran, of the
special, who lives 10 Troy, Immediately
went to the police station in Lansinburg
and surrendered himself.

fence. She died soon after from her
injuries.

should also be placed there.
A candelabra with will brighten the table

 We may not lead armies to battle or sit upon a throne but every Che may be faithful to duty as it calls. Emerson in his lecture on Duty has a beautiful idea of Woman's Rights.
 He says: Certainly let her be as much better placed in the lays and in social forms, as the most jealous reformer can ask, but l confide so entirely in her inspiring and musica. nature, that 1 believe only hefself can show us how she shall be, served.
 The wonderful generosity of her sentiments raises her at times into heroical and godlike regions and yer lfies the pictures of Minerva.

Compulsory education was also dwelt upon mentioning Germany as an example. In speaking of the social system he said that the remedy was to educate the young not only men tally, but morally.
 Children should be taught to re spect work and truth and then they will become good citizeus.

 DOUGLAS SOCIETY. . .s . . . . q . . ss ( s A s . . e

Last Saturday evening the band gave one of the most successful danc- es they have ever given. There were fully Seventy-fiYe couples who danced to the sweet strains of music rendered by the boys in uniform. IL isn't every day that one can dance to music fur nished by a full band. and We ought to take advantage of these occasions and incidentally help the band boys along.
 If charming Ellery ever had any doubt as to the class Of music it takes to attract Douglas audience. his doubts must have vanished last Sun day afternoon. The program present ed by Mir. Ellery was at first a diSap- pointment, not because any .lusic furnished by that band isn't highly acceptable, but because We are west erners, half starved for the opera, and We hoped the program would be all operatic music. As it was. the audience fairly drank in the selec- tions from Carmen and Il Trovatore but when substitution gave the sex tette from Lucia the spell' was con- plete. The sextette was a special re- quest, and the applause that followed made it plain 70 be seen that it was a general fayorite. Next time it is to be hoped MT. ElIery will give us the most ponderous selections in his repertoire. If we cant drink in all the fineness of the parts, We can at least try.
 Since bridge whist has been so much in evidence this winter espec- ially since the enthusiasm over the game has not diminished in the least. why wouldn't il be a splendid idea for the young ladies to organize an after noon club for the study of the game? The young men, almost without eX- ception, play a scientific hand, and it seems only reasonable that the young ladies should make an effort to be an equal match in the games. Several persons have approved of this plan, and one lady even offered her servic- es if the girls would show dispo- sition to learn. -1s
