much larger attendance than it re-

cellently recited by Miss Clara
Moshcr while the illustrations were
made by twelve girls beautifully
gowned in white and gold. The

Musical Invention.

Mr.. Ed. Dorward of Windsor
street, has invented something new
In the way of an automatic music
turner which fastens on the front OF
a piano or organ, and by simply
touching a button promptly turns
the music and holds it in good posi-
tion on the instrument. Mr.. Dorward
is to be congratulated upon having
the only invention of the kind on
the market and as he has the rights
fully protected, he will no doubt find
ready sale for the new device.
On Saturday night he will make
public demonstration at the Baker
piano parlurs at PA West Center
street, and musicians are especially
invited to be present and see the
practical workings OF this very use

for his path. The Big -Four tracks
west of Agosta are straight as a
die and under ordinary circum-
stances the engineer could easily
detect an object ON the tracks
several miles away. However Fri
day morning the heavy fog obscur-
cd a view for any great distance
and the train was within hundred
yards of the victim before the en-
ginccr saw him. The noise made
by the crushing of snow under his
feet undoubtedly drowned the roar
of the train, as the unsuspeeting
victim walked ON to his death.
Mr.. Berger was thrown about
thirty feet when the yilot of the
engine struck him, but strangely
he felt on the tracks directly in
front of the tram and dhe wheels
of seven ears passed over his body
completely chopping it in two just
above the hips. Coroner Brady
