Frightful Mishap to a Construction Train on the Fall Brook Ratlroad. Sunday the Fall Brook construction train with a full crew of sixteen men in charge of Master Mechanic Zura Baker, left Wellsboro’, Pa., to do some repairing on the road. As the train passed Stakesdale Junction a number of young men and boys who had walked down to see the wreck of the trains that collided some days ago climbed on the wrecker to reach home. The train proceeded slowly at about four milesan hour. The engine and tender crossed the bridge in safety, but the derrick on the wrecker caught the bridge cover and the next instant the bridge broke down, plunging the train into the creek. Grant Milliken, Daniel Howard and Conrad Dittenhoeffer wer: standing on the center platform. Milliken’s neck was broken, Howard's head was struck, killing him, and "Dittenhoeffer's right arm and leg were crushed. In the cars men were piled up and buried under a mass of ropes, tools and timbers, John Roberts had several ribs broken. Mr. Baker was ba burt. William Francis, 8. B. Dimmick, William Green and others, «bout eighteen in all, were more or less in- jared. William Brew, the telegraph messen- ger, was taken out unconscious, but seems to be im a fair way torecover. Both of the men killed were married and Howard had three small children, _~ 00s They Paia Their Bill With Snow. Two respectable-looking men entered Horace L. Harriman’s restaurant, at No. 190 6th avenue, New York, Wednesday, and ordered a dinner, of which turkey was their principal dish, When they had eaten their fill they coolly announced that they hadno money. Harriman told them they must pay or give security for the 85 cents due. One of the pair, who had an oblong card- board box under bis arm, rather hesitatingly Proposed to leave the box as security. His companion objected that it was scarcely wise to trust it to Herriman, but after some more con- versation, calculated to impress Harriman with the value of the parcel, they offered him the mysterious box. Harriman wanted to know its contents, but the men objected, and when he insisted upon opening it one of them sidled to- ward the door and made a successful break for the strect. Harriman held on to the box and the second man, and upon opening the former found that it posirersat 9 @ general assortment of dirty snow. A policeman took the prisoner to the Jefferson Market police court, where the man gave the name of John Connors, He said he was out of work and had accepted the invi- tation of the man who had escaped to dine at his expense. Justice Gorman fined him $10, and in default of payment Connors will get free meals in jail for tem days, Charles Lever’s Son Dead. Charles Lever, son of the celebrated Irish novelist and himself a scientific electrician of prominence, was found dead in bed in Dublin ¥esterday morning. The doctors say that his death was caused by heart disease, au affliction to which he had been tong subject, A Boy Poisons the Family. Ed Church, son of Woolford Church, a farmer living near Huntingdon, W. Va., became angry at his father, went to Givjandotte and pur- chased a box of “rough on rate,” which he put in the flour. The whole family except the boy were poisoned from eating biscuits. A thir- teen-year-old girl is dead and the father and two children are dangerously ill, Young Chureh has fled. He is only seventeen years id. oi ce Allie Jackman Found. Allie Jackman, the sixteen-year-old peiress of St. Louis, who was abducted again Sunday, turned up at the house of Albert Sprink, No. 2612 Dayton street, about 11 o’clock Sunday night, drenched to the skin by rain. Her story is that while going to the grocery Sunday even- ing she was seized by two men, hustled into a covered wagon which was standing in an alley, and driven to the house of Mr. Brouthers in the southern portion of the city. Here she was put into the same room she occupied when she was there before and was told to go to bed. She did not retire, however, but when every- thing was still in the house she stole down stairs and escaped by the back door and ran through the rain to the home of Mrs. Sprink. The Post- Inspotch declares that the alleged second ab- duction of Allie Jackman is disproved by the facts, Fortunately for Mr. Brouthers there were witnesses present at his house at the hour when Allie Jackman claims to have been taken there who deny the truth of the story. Just where the girl was during the first haif of the night, or what her motive could be for telling sach a sensational yarn, has not yet been developed. ————+e+_____. Higher Prices for Window Glass. It is said the American window glass trust as been formed at Pittsburg. The twelve hi largest American importers of window glass met last week at Young’s hotel, Boston, and after considerable discussion agreed upon an advance of ten per cent. Prices abroad have risen very sharply about thirty per cent from the lowest by reason of the advance in raw materials, ———-e-___ Fire in a Kansas Hotel. Fire was discovered issuing from the stair- case of the principal hotel in Hiawatha, Kan., early yesterday morning and the guests were obliged to jump from the sec- ond and third story windows to lives. A number of persons were injured by the flames and in jumping. Among those most severely hurt are Dr. Wilder of Chicago, Frederick Brooks of Hastings, Ni H. Whelan of Hiawatha, ali of whose injuri are dangerous. The total loss will be about $20,000, with an insurance of $7,000. To Carry the Wa ar Into Africa. The anti-slavery society of Great Britain is organizing an armed expedition to proceed to Lake Tanganyika, The object is to police the lake aud prevent the passage of slave caravans, The country to the west of Tanganyika has for years been the chief source of slaves.

Cremating mortgages is getting tobe fashion- able among Jersey City churches. Some time ago the Bergen Baptist church got rid of one for #75,000, Then the Tabernacle Ccngroga- tional church burned its $11,000 burden, and last night St. Paul's Free Methodist church im , 3d street followed suit with a paper worth $3,000. ———_ ee _______ Waste in Photography. From the Phiographic Times, it is estimated that there is from #40,000 to $50,000 worth of nitrate of silver and gold used by the photographers every year in our little city of Chicago alone and as much more in the great state of Illinois, and $1,000,000 worth of nitrate of silver and gold isa very | low estimate for the photographers of the | United States to use every year in maki ing. thew countless millions of photographs, At least €500,000 of this hard-earned money could have been saved that was wasted, thrown away, in solutions in the washing and fixing these millions of photographs. Could all of this waste for the past twenty-five years have been saved the enormous amount would sur- prise every one of you, as it would reach the enormous sum of $12,500,000—quite enough to retire every photographer of Americ& today with an independent fortune, to say nothing about the anoual interest of this vast sum, which certainly would have doubled the whole amount that has been wasted in the past twenty-five yeara. i «ee —__ Married on Sight.

Trenton, N.J., was treated to a new sensation ip the Kniffen case yesterday when it was learned that Dr. Kniffen had tried to commit suicide. Dr. Kniffen and the brother of Miss Purcell, David Purcell, had been sitting talking with Dr. Palmer of New Brunswick, the brother-in- law of Dr. Kniffen, during the night. Shortly after the departure of Dr. Palmer, who took the 1:30 o'clock train in the morning, Purcell and Dr. Kniffen, who were in the front bed room in the third story, began making prepa- rations to retire, they both occupying the same bed, As Mr. Purcell was about ready to go to sleep Dr. Kniffen said: “David, I think I will | take » bath; —_ and it may refresh me.” PREPARING FOR SUICIDE. With this remark Dr. Kniffen went down to the second story, where the bath room situated, and Mr. Parcell fell asleep, Upon entering the bath room, which is directly back of the reception room, in which ae acs 1 PATENT si gcse iW THE noe ERT Prepared only para v ia Druggiets re wor the U1 ary 6 ETIeTS | Si cnn Sione md. °F.

Taking a horse blanket he fastened it up over the window so as to shut out all chances of being seen by any watchers at the rear of the house. Another blanket, a large ies one, was care- fully folded sy ooys placed in the corner. The doctor had in his Possession a razor, which had evidently been secreted inthe bath room by him during the day and also a pint bottle con- taining aconite, USING THE RAZOR. an evi tr With the razor Dr. Kniffen first cut himself et across tho left wrist, attempting to sever the | EMY UF FINE ARI radial artery. After making the cut, Dr. Knif- fen seated himself in the corner of the bath room in the blanket, and holding his wounded way from his body so that blood would not soil his clothes, waited in the expectation of slowly bleeding to death, Although he lost a large quantity of blood | “ti fysres#and to Foreign Legatio from this cut, he had not severed the artery, and after a time realizing this, he made a fresh | NS attempt to end his life. Aguin taking the razor he inflicted a gash in bis throat about four | # inches long. His nerve had evidently failed him, for the vein. When he saw that even this wound was not to prove fatal the doctor drank from the bottle containing aconite enough to have killed adozen men.

It prints ALL THE NEWS, Local, Domestic and Foreign, LONG IN ADVANCE OF THE MORN- ING PAPERS. This is conspicuously true of all classes of news, but especially so in regard te Local News and District Affairs. THE STAR has a very much LARGER }and BETTER force of LOCAL RE- |PORTERS and SPECIAL WRITERS than any other paper in Washington ever thought of employin and ITS MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT AND PRINTING FACILITIES ARE MORE ) | THAN THREE TIMES AS POWER- FUL AND RAPID AS THOSE OF ANY OTHER WASHINGTON PAPER. It ts therefore able to print each day a full Feport of every transaction of public ine ferest occurring in the District up te the very hour of going to press. By the free use of the OCEAN CABLES: for REGULAR AND SPECIAL DIS- PATCHES, and with the difference of time in its favor, it is also able to give its readers every afternoon the news of the WHOLE EASTERN HEMISPHERE for the entire day, and up to 12 o’clock midnight, thus leaving literally nothing im the way of news from Kurope, Asia, and Africa for the morning papers. —o7——_ Equally does THE STAR lead all its | contemporaries in the publication of the NEWs OF OUR OWN COUNTRY. Receiving the regular dispatches of both News Associations; with alert and enterprising special telegraphic cor- respondents at all important points; and with wires leading directly from its own office to the general network of telegraph system touching every city, town and hamlet in the United States and Terri- tories, it is enabled to receive and print atonce a full report of every event of consequence occurring during the day aoywhere between the Atlantic aud Pas @ NOTE THE RESULT: ¢3 THE STAR HAS MORE THAN THREE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR SUBSCRIGERS and MORE THAN BIVE TIMES AS MANY REG AR READERS AS ANY OTHER DAILY PAPER IN WASHINGTON. It is de- -vered regularly by careful carriers at the HOMES OF THE PEOPLE, AFTER THE BUSTLE AND WORRY OF THE AY ARE OVER, and it is thus read leisurely and thoroughly by EVERY MEMBER OF THE FAMILY. They know that it prints all the news, end has only the interests of the people of the District in view, with no partisan measures to advocate, and no private schemes to forward. They know it,in short, tobe THE PEOPLE’S PAPER, and nothingelse. Asan ADVERTISING MEDIUM it is, therefore, ABSO- LUTELY WITHOUT A RIVAL, It is im fact worth more as a means of reach- ing the public THAN ALL THE OTHER DAILY PAPERS IN THE CITY TOGETHER. Furthermore, in proportion to the re- turns it gives its patrous, ITS ADVER- TISING RATES ARE THE CHEAPEST UN THE CITY. In conclusion, the public should bear in mind this one significant fact: THE STARK does not rely upon empty boasts to impress the public. ITS CIRCULA- TION IS SWORN TO; its PRESS- | ROOM IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC; and its BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED | by any one having an interest in their examination. These are CRUCIAL | TESTS, which few papers invite, and which those that boast most are least able to stand. —o— © The esteem in which THE STAB. fs held by the reading and advertising public is conclusively shown by the fig- | ures given below. In the first six months of each of the five years named the average daily cir- ulation of the paper was: In 1885..
