DRAGGED RESCUER AMI
HERSELF UNDER TRAIN.
Girl Grew Frantic and Pulled Conductor
Over Rails, Under Wheels of Freight.
Both Dying. !.

TRENTON. Oct. 17.-After having
been snatched from the Jaws of death
yesterday by william Var D~eventer,
of this city. a Pennsylvania Railroad
conductor, Miss Elizabeth Shomber lost
her presence of mind and dragged her
rescuer from the platform of his car
under the wheels of the train. Both
were badly mangled and are dying in
st. Francis's Hospital.
Miss Shomber, with her sister Mary,
were passing along the towpath of the
Delaware and Raritan Canal, when
they became frightened at the actions
of several mules pulling a canal boat.
In jumping from the path out of the
way of the mules, they stepped on a
spur of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
their fright preventing them from mo-
ticing that a freight train was backing
down.
Reaching over the rail of the car as
the train came, Van Deventer grasped
her, intending to lift her from
danger to the platform beside him. As
the girl felt his grasp she lost her head
and fought against him, dragging him
over the rail to- the tracks. The wheels
passed over both. Miss Shomber's right
arm was cut off and both of, her legs
were mangled. Van Deventer's right
leg was crushed, several ribs were
broken, and he was injured internally.
John Morgan. brakeman of the train
heard the creams and pulled the sister
from the track in time to save hei
life.

MRS. BEACH ROBBED
HARRISON SCHOOL OMAN'S
HOME ENTERED.
Pinkerton Detectives After Two New
York Crooks, who Are Believed to
Have Committed the Theft.

Pinkerton detectives are searching for
two New York crooks who are supposed
to have BEEN the ones who entered the
home Of Mrs Lucy Beach, vice-principal
of School No. 2, Harrison, early Monday
morning and robbed her of silverware'
clothing and other articles:
The detectives trailed the crooks from
New York t, Harrison and lost them in
the neighborhood Of Warren street, thai
town, Mrs. Beach's home being but a half
block away in South Fifth street,
The crooks are described as being both
clever men at their business, and their
pictures arc in the New YORK ponce
rogues' gallery.
The fact that Pinkerton detectives were
on the case was learned today py a re-
porter from a prominent Harrison business
man, who said that the detectives detes-
tives were on the trail of the crooks III
the belief that they were in Harrison in
tent on safe cracking, but they evidently
chose AIRS. Beaeh's home instead,
He stated that about 1880 o'clock last
Sunday morning while coming out of his
place of business in Harrison avenue, he
was intercepted by three men, who, Ell
gaging him in conversation. declared that
they were three Pinkerton detectives from
New York and exhibited their shields and
other evidence to prove their claim.
Theg told him that they had Just followed
two New York crooks from that city 10
Harrison and had lost their trail in War
rem street. They asserted that both men
were expert Burglars and were undoubtedly
In Harrison intent on robbery.
The detectives showed two Rogues' CAL
lery pictures of the crooks they were trail
ing, and the Harrison man also said that
they called up Plnkerton headquarters in
New York and asked that a man be sta
toned near the stopping place of the crooks
in New YoYrYk TO find out when they re
turned.
The Harrison man asked the detectives
why they did not enlist the aid of the
Harrison police, but they replied that they
did not want to.
They requested the Harrisonian to notify
Pinkerton headquarters in New York If he
heard of any ROBBERY in Harrison within a
day or so.
