SIX CARS DERAILED.
At Barre Railroad Switchback When
Train Was About to Descend.

Six fiat cars of the quarry train re-
turning to this city late yesterday aft
ernoon left the rails at the switchback,
and it was near the eleventh hour of
the night before the derailed cars were
restored to the tracks. The train was
in charge of Engineer McHugho and Con-
ductor Smith. They had reached the
switehback, and the Hercules engine had
been coaled and watered. and had shifted
its position to the other end of the traia
to bear the brunt of the weight in de
scending the stretch of high h-graded track
below the switehback.
While the train was backing UP u
clear the switch. the rails apparently
spread and six OF the cars left the iron.
The cars were not overturned. and but
one piece of granite was dislodged from
its resting place. A crew from Barre
were sent to their aid and near the
midnight hour the train was ready to
resume its Journey to the city.

deep water navigator and well-knowE
resident of Augusta, died, about $50
p. NJ, Monday, of pneumonia, aged 6S
wears. Capt Morang had been in poor
health ever since last April when he
suffered cerebral hemorrhage, but
the immediate cause of death was :.
sudden and severe attack of pneu-
monia. He had complained for sew
eral days of severe cold, but it was
not until Sunday that pneumonia de-
yeloped.
He was born in Pittston and COM
menced following the sea at the age

Among the vessels which he COM
manded We're the brig Charles Dennis,
brig Jennie Hurlburt, both owned by
T. j. Southland & Son of Richmond,
and the schooner Flora Morang. which

years and gave up the sea about 10
years ago, at which time ne secured {;
position as motorman on the Electric
Road and came TO this city to live,
making his home ON Capital street,
where he had since resided.
He served in the navy and was an
eye witness of the thrilling battle be-
tween the Monitor and the Merrimack,
being gunner on the frigate Roanoke,
which was cut of action on account
of the breaking of a crank shaft.
He was twice married. his first wife
being Ella Sibley of Pittston and his
second wife Emma 5. Dudley of Pitts
ton. The second wife, two daughters
by the first marriage, BESSIE. wife OF

This is the third time that the Corner

with a large score The Corner boys
are certainly playing q good game 81
basketball at this time, and it looks
very doubtful if there is a team in
this city that can beat them il they
keep up the pace they are now follow
ing. Every man on the Corner team
out-weighea his opponent, from Is to
80 pounds.
From the time that the pistol sound
ed for the game to start, until the fin
ish. the Corner boys outplayed the
losing team, and it seemed as il every
time one of the Corner men made a
try for a goal the bail would drop in
to the basket The only time in the
game that the Augusta Lumber Co.
BOYS showed Il flash of speed was in
the first part of the first period, when
Can't. McLaugillin shot a dandy goal,
which was soon followed by one made
by Mayo. These We're the only goals
obtained by this side in the first half.
