The engine was turned over on its side. The fireman, John Taylor, was buried under the debris, having one leg badly Jacerated. besides being scalded by the es- caping steam.

It is thonght he will recover. Trains were delayed about an hour and a half by the accident. “MARTI.” This new sensational whieh was performed in the National The: ter last night—its first representation on any stage—is destined to hold a place on the boards, if onecan judge from effects pro- duced on its first representation. The story portrays the sufferings and inward conflicts of an innocent wife of two husbands, with an interesting child to part from and be reunited to, and Mrs. Bowers. as the heroine, so work- €d wpon the sensibilities of her audience last nigbt as not only to moisten the eyes of the jadies who were present, but to affect the sterner sex. The play has not a of the faults of the so-called emotional (gener- ally, as in this case, bigamous) dramas. Tne tity of the wife who will cousent to leare a lovea and loving husband, No. 2 sooner than get bis belp and support by tell- ing him the trath. is one of the improbable features of this play; but for ail that it has same strong points, even excelling “FE Lynne” in barrowtng up the feolt sensitive. Mrs. Bowers was ably snstainet by Mr. MeCotlom, Mrs. Germon. Miss Gio- ver and Mr. J.¥. Ward. “Marti” again to- night. Barry Sullivan at the National next week.

VERDE OF IRCON- Dr. Bliss called attention to the inconsis- teney of the member. He had forgotien when the Board of Health atone time voted him 09 for this Same purpose at the time he was health officer. The present officer had per- formed many duties which were not expect- ed of him as health officer, and Le had broken down his buggy. Dr. Verdi corrected the genileman in his statement of making an app.opriation of 40 to him while he was acting as health officer. At that time the health officer did not receive a dollar's salary for hts services. On the health officer was imposed the duty of cleaning the whole city ot Washington. ‘The chair said that in bis whole experteace he bad never witnessed so much sensitive- ness in the consideration of a smal! was extraordinary. The precedent alluded te of sur had great force. The then health officer bad $00 given him for a wagon for his ow bim say that this serviee could be done for £1,000, and In the same breath say that he was in favor of paying liberally for valuable services.

Mr. Langston again opposed the payment bill | of th are ne | ting low.” Mr. Marbury.—“I said no such thing.” Mr gston.—*He says there is likely to be a deficiency in the funds of the board, and that it will be impocsible to pay a micro- scopist to inspect food. The only difference between them is, that the treasurer's ideas of justice are onr ideas of generosity. THE BILD PAID. Registrar Bliss submitted the following tion is hereby, made to reimburse the cer for extraordinary expenses in He said: to pay; “The treasurer says we that the funds are get- health 8 curred in performing extra services as medi- | cal sanitary inspector for a period of two months during the present fiscal year.” Secretary Langston moved its reference to | the finance committee; lost; and after an- other lengthy discussion the resolution was adopted.
