EIGHT DIE IN TRAIN WRECK
BALTIMORE & OHIO PASSENGER
RUNS INTO A FREIGHT.
Several Persons Fatally Injured
Musical Director of Carries Opera
Company Loses Right Arm.

Bellaire, o., Sept. 30.-Eight men
were killed and score injured, four
fatally, when the Chicago & Wheel
ing express on the Baltimore G. Ohio
railroad crashed into freight train
at a siding near here Saturday.
Failure of an operator to throw the
switch and give clear track to the
express train, which was speeding to
make up three hours lost time, is
said to have been the cause of the ac-
cident.
The dead are: Carl Bereran, Mil
waukee; l.. N. Galbraith, engineer,
Newark, N. j.; Michael Heinze, Wheel
ing, w. Va; H. A. Lipscomb, En-
gineer, Newark, N. j.; f. f. Motz,
conductor, Newark, N. j.; F. l.. Rose.
Cleveland, o.; Harry Seitz,, Massillon,
o.; William Shaw, Wheeling, w. Va.
The fatally injured: E. ]. Blu.

press were the members of Richard
Carries "Spring Chicken" Comic Opera
company. All of them, with the ex,
ception of Alfred Daily, the musical
director. escaped serious injury, how
ever. 1t was found necessary to am
putate Mr.. Dalby's right arm, thus
ending his musical career.
Several other members of the COM
pany, including Mr.. earle himself, had
narrow escapes from serious injuries.
They owe their escape to the fact
their private car was last on the train.
Engineer H. A. Lipscomb underwent
a heroic surgical operation to save his
life. Caught beneath his engine, 1t
was impossible to remove the broken
iron from his body. Escaping steam
across his face made it impossible to
administer any anesthetic and the
physicians amputated his leg as he
lay there conscious. The effort was in
vain, however, as Lipscomb died later.

The complaint which was filed in
the justice court yesterday by DR.
Clark, charging c. l.. Staten with
maintaining nuisance, arose from the

living in the adjoining house to Mr.

made in the disposition of the water
from his kitchen sink. The waste pipe
now leads the water out through the
side of Mr.. Slatten's house, which
stands just about on the lot line, and
empties onto the ground where it has

THE SUNDAY SCHOOLS
County Convention At Wright Was
Most Successful.

The rain OF thursday AID friday,
tae dates of the annual convention
of the Manaska County Sunday School
Association, greatly interfered with
the attendance of the meeting, re-
ducing it 70 minimum. While the
meeting in point of numbers present
was the smallest in years, the pro
gram was the best and the theme OF
the convention, Better Schools" will
bear an abundant harvest in he work
of the coming year. The statement
that the Sunday schools of Mahaska
county are greater and better than
ever before in their history, with in
creased attendance, more teachers,
more schools and better financial rup-
port, was emphasized in numerous
ways. Increased interest is shown
both by officers and by pupils AID re,
ports and gossip heard on the moor
of the convention made up interest
ing and encouraging subject matter
chat will be food Tor thought during
the coming year.
The program for the meeting had
been well planned and almost al
| numbers were carried out. Several
other good things not looked for were
presented and all present at the con
vention felt amply repaid, despite in
conyeniences or personal discomn
| lures.
The present very satisfactory condi
dition of the Sunday school work II
the county has been due directly &c
the efforts and the unrelentiag ener
| gy of the present corps of officer;
of the association. Their experience
and their capability have accomplish
ed what would have been impossible
with just as well meaning but less
knowing leaders and managers. The
officers We're congratulated upon al
sides for the accomplishment OF the
past year and their own satisfaction
| in the knowledge of work done PEI
vades the entire association. Ever
the individual schools of the county
know they are doing good and thor
ough work.
| The association was so much i'm
pressed with these facts that they
determined to continue the present
| administration and so far as possible
the same officers were elected to sue
coed themselves. Only one new name
appears in the list of officers, Miss
Lillian Kilburn, of this city, taking
the place of Miss Mabel Cochran, Of
| Wright, and two new directo"', ]. p

to take the places of w. r. Cowar
