Shocking Accident.
Brother Of Rev. H. 7. Steven. Run
Over and Terribly Mansled by
Railroad Engine in Washington
City, and Dies from Effects.

The following account of the the
terrible accident by which Mr.. John
Stevens, conductor on the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad, and brother
OF Rev. FL. L. Stevens of Henderson,
lost his life in Washington City last
week, is taken from the Raleigh News
and Observer of last Saturday:
The many friends OF Rev. Herman II.
Stevens, a poplar young Baptist minis
ter of Henderson, will deeply sympathizs
with him in his grief over the horrible
death of his brother, Mr. John Stevens,
who died in Washington, ID. C., Tuesday
after twenty hours of agony from in
juries received on the Baltimore and
Ohio yards in that city Monday night.
He was working as conductor in the SER
vice of the B. L O., when he was struck
down by an engine on the yard, his
right arm being torn and completely
severed from his body, leaving a great
open cavity. He also received severe
bruises about the head. When picked
up the arm was lying on the ground
separated from the body. The young
man, however, was conscious, and re-
manned SO until near the hour of his
death. The surgeons thought at first
to perform an operation, but decided
such course to be useless, as they saw
that it was impossible to save life.
Rev III. T. Stevens came from Hen
derson to Raleigh Tuesday and while on
the way received a telegram from anoth-
er brother, Mr. Jesse Stevens, stating the
young man had lost his arm in an &C
cident. Rev. Mr.. Stevens took the first
Seaboard trainfor Washington and when
he arrived found his brother dead
The body was brought by the two
brothers by way Of Greensboro to their
fathers home at Wilson's Mills Thurs
day, and the funeral took place yester-
day.
The deceased was an industrious
young man "a years of age and is sur
vived by his father and several brothers
and sisters. He was unmarried.
Rev. II. Il. Stevens is pastor OF
Island Creek, Rock Spring and Pop
lar Creek Baptist churches, and his
friends here and elsewhere will sympa-
thize with him in the sad and dis
tressing death of his brother.

Good Show.

Williams 4 Baynard s Troubadours and
Jubilee Singers, an aggregation OF gen
uine negroes, gave three performances
under canvas in Henderson last week.
1t was one of the best shows ever seen
here, all things considered. They certain
ly pleased their patrons If laughter and
applause mean anything and gave them
more than the worth of their money
Edward Stafford, the comedian, is the
best exponent OF his art ever seen in the
person of a negro on the local stage. He
is simply great, his comedy clean and re-
fined while he excels as a singer and
dancer also. Peewee Williams, the tramp
juggler and eccentric roller skater, is in
class by himself, without a superior
among his race, perhaps. His work is
clearcut, startling and pleasing through
out. Nettie Baynard's musical act, play
Jag on the banjo, mandolin and cOrnet
was we'll done and constituted an en-
joyable feature.
The singing and dancing was good
some fine voices and excellent dancers
bling represented in the company. The
drills and marches were well executed
and altogether it was a pleasing and
enjoyable performance that they gave
There was plenty OF comedy and when
the audience was not laughing at the
funny sayings and comic situations pre-
sented they were applauding the clever
act of some individual performer or the
meritorious work of the company as a
whole.
There was perfect good order at each
performance, the aim OF the management
being to please their patrons and main
tain the high reputation established
elsewhere.
Prof Eph Williams, the manager, is a
veteran at the business and has proba-
bly had a wider and more successful ex-
perience than any other negro Snowman.
The educated ponies introduced were
trained by him and he regards them al
most as members OF the family. They do
some very intelligent acts but the alb
sence of the leader, the smallest and best
trained one of the four. told somewhat
in the performance of the Others. This
pony was accidentally killed in Weldon,
where they showed before coming here,
by being run over by train. After be
ing brought out for the performance the
| little horse got away and strayed on IN
| the dark. Getting on the railroad he fell
! into the trestle over the canal and before
| he was found a train passed and killed
him. He was given decent burial the
next day a coffin being made especially
| for the purpose, and the Roanoke News
says.it was pathetic scene as the entire
| company solemnly followed the mangled
remains OF the deminutive equine pet to
the place OF burial, many OF them shed
ding tears as ii a loved relative or friend
| had departed this life.

DRUNK, WRECKS HOME; GOES;
BACK IN 7 YEARS; SAME JAG
Pittsburg Man Reappears at Home
with Same Fighting Load He Ran
Away with and Is
Arrested

Special to The Herald.
PITTSBURG, Pa, July 26.-Seven years
ago Daniel McHenry came home drunk,
beat his wife and their 10-yearold daugh-
ter, broke up the furniture, and, after he
had had all the fun he wanted, disap-
peared. Seven years came and went, but
no trace came to Mrs. McHenry of the
husband who had treated her so badly,
and she supposed he was dead Last even
ing there was an awful RACKET in front of
the door of her home, Miffin street, and
Mrs. McHenry and her daughter, who is
now II, were badly frightened.
Mrs. McHenry finally managed to pluck
up courage enough to open the door, and
there he was-the same old drunk. Both
Mrs. McHenry and her daughter think he
was even worse than on the night he dis
appeared His clothes were more tattered
and there was every indication that the
jag he carried away with him had lasted
throughout the seven years.
Daniel wanted to come in and break up
the furniture again, but Mrs McHenry
and her daughter refused to kill the fatted
calf for him. He insisted on remaining
about the front of the house and bother
ing the neighborhood, just like he used to
do, SO they called a policeman. Daniel
probably will sober up now, for he was
sent to the penitentiary for sixty days.

BIG RATHER AND BULL
SNAKE IN HOT BATTLE

FORT WORTH, Tex, July 26.-Texas
is the home of many varieties of snakes,
and out in the western and southwestern
portions of the state rattlesnakes abound
and are the cause of many deaths annu-
ally. Hardly week passes that the pa
pers published in those sections do not
contain notices of the death of some per-
son from snake bite, and in the major
ity of instances the victims are hcildren.
But it develops that these deadly rattle
snakes have a potent foe in what is
known as the bulsnake. This snake is
not venomous and grows to enormous
size The bullsnake makes short work
of the RATHER, and for that reason de-
serves a better fate than is usually ac-
corded him. The following interesting
story of a fight b~tween a bullsnake and
rattlesnake is told by w. F. Kellis of
Sterling City:
mot only did I hear great rustling in
the leaves, but quickly detected the loud
singing of rattlesnake. l was tracking
deer, but being attracted by this sound
with my rifle ready for instant use
cautiously crept to the spot and there 1
saw a big rattlesnake coiled ready for
striking, while rapidly circling around
him was monster bullsnake, whose red
tongue was darting like shafts OF light
ming from a thunder cloud"

LONG BEACH ENJ0INED
FROM SELLING WHARFAGE
City of San Pedro Gets Writ and
Charge of Trlckery to
Force Hand Is
Made

Special to The Herald
LONG BEACH, July 26.-The injunc-
ton secured yesterday by the city OF san
Pedro, restraining this city from selling
wharf franchises at East San Pedro, is
believed by George A Skinner, city at
torney of Long Beach. to force this mu-
nicipality to show it's hand in the suit to
be tried before the supreme court Au-
gust 5.
on that date the old question of the
validity of the West Long Beach an
nexation election is to be threshed out
before the supreme court.
The temporary injunction granted yes
terday by Judge Bordwell was made re-
turnable August g. three days before the
trial of the case, The injunction, there
fore, serves to force Long Beach into
court before the trial, and also to inter-
fere with the sale of the proposed wharf
franchise to the Blinn- Robinson Lumber
company.
The superior court some time ago issued
an injunction restraining San Pedro from
interfering with the control of affairs at
West Long Beach. This injunction was
secured by John E. DAILY, then city at
torney of Long Beach, and was to re-
main effective until such time as the
annexation should be finally adjudlcated.
The franchise in question has been ad-
vertised for sale on July 3d. The fran
chise would have covered 700 feet of
water frontage on the inner Wilmington
bay, between Railroad avenue and Fourth
street. The temporary injunction stops
the bidding on the franchise.

BERRY DIET SO HOURS
Special to The Herald.


DURYEA, Pa, July 26-Seven-year-old
Joseph Klutch of this town, who was
lost on the mountain near here on Mon
day, was restored to his parents late last
night, when they had about given up
hope of ever seeing him alive. The young
ster was found by H. w. Davenport of
Taylor several miles from here.
He had been when found for thirty
eight hours without food or water except
berries, but was uninjured. The boy left
home on Monday morning His elder
brothers had gone earlier to pick buckle
berries on the mountain, and the boy
wanted to go with them. He reached
the mountain easily enough, but when he
went into the underbrush searching for
his brothers he was speedily lost.
AS darkness came he strove franctically
to find his way out of the woods, when,
exhausted, he fell asleep. In the morn
ing he resumed his waNderings and event
ually came upon road. This he followed
for a long time, and was then found by
Davenport. His clothes were torn by
the bushes, but he had not suffered ex-
cept from fright.

Street Superintendent H. L. Johnson is
preparing recommendations to the city
trustees asking for plank in the special
sewer bond election to be held shortly, by
which bonds may be voted for incinerator
improvements.
The incinerator now in use has capac-
ity to consume daily the garbage of a city
of 1000 population, but at this season of
the year when the winter population of
about 1000 is nearly tripled 1t has to be
operated all day and night in order to
meet the tax made on It. The proposition
of the city constructing an altogether new
plant along more feasible lines for local
work, it is said, will be put before the
board.
The annual season of high tides is now
under way, but as yet no reports of
damages by the seas have been made. AT
1888 last evening, when the tide was at
it's highest. several big breakers washed
over the cement promenade on the ocean
front near Venice. Tomorrow night at
1910 the maximum of the tides will be
reached when high water, six feet four
inches, is scheduled.
