The bridge was being strengthened for the big locomotives, and the workmen who were putting on the tes were at dinner when the crash came. locomotive passed over the structure, but was wrecked, the water tank being thrown a long distance. The buffet, two a and @ dining car were smashed to when they struck the stream twenty feet below, but the two day coaches and smoker in the rear did uot leave the track.

The train was seven minutes late at Chester and the ratiroad hands say it was going at the rate of twenty miles an hour when it struck the first of the two spans actors the river. The conductor was taking tickets in a day coach, and although thrown violently down, escaped serious injury. ‘There are only a few houses in the vicin- ity, and a man driving by gave the alarm through the village street. In a few moments hundreds were on the scene. The shrieks of the imprisoned were most terrible and scores of people looked on completely unnerved. The heroes of the hour were Dr. George L. Wood of Col- lnsville, who went to the train to meet his wife, and the colored porters and wait- ers in the dining car, who, although their faces were bruised and cut and covered with blood, did splendid work, The village people soon, recovered. from the shock and were hard at work. The hospital was a group of apple trees In an adjoining orchard, where scores of injured were taken. Ox teams arrived with loads of straw, cushions, bedding and food. The wounded were soon removed to the houses of N. A. Harwood, Washington Moore and J. C. Crocker and all that re- mained on the apple strewn ground were thirteen bodies covered with red blankets from an adjoining stable. Many of the deed were horrjbly mutilat- ed. Thetr heads were crushed in, their Mmbs torn, and they were often recogniz- able only from their clothing. Some of the Killed. Mr. Scull of Philadelphia was with his sister, Mrs. Bispham, in a Wagner car. She was instantly killed and he was pin- ned down, but finally extricated. J. F. DeWitt of Portland, Me., president of the Union Mutual Life Insurance Com- pany, was reading a magazine. M. Kirk of Chicago started to sit with him, but, seeing that he was absorbed, excused himself and went into the rear car, and was thus saved. Mrs. John J. Howard of Boston, whose stage name is Hattie Blanchard, was one of the five saved in the sleeper next in front of the dining car, which was the worst wrecked. She left Albany, where the John L. Sullivan Company had appeared the night before. She says that she felt the car going down, and reached for her hat in the seat in front. In an instant she was pinned down by a beam across her waist. A chandelier had crashed down overhead. She extricated hersif and turned to Mrs Bispham, who was crying for help. Her head was wedg- ed under a car seat arm. When Mrs. Howard saw that it was ae possible to extricate the woman the victim squeezed her hand with a “God bless you, good bye.” She started out and stumbled over a cook pinned down near the kitchen, and, mounting the ruins of the next car was taken off safely. I. HL Talbor, editor of the Tron Age, was coach. His clothes ¥ Sha ‘he wes badly bruised, but did splendid work in taking out the dead and injured. —+e+—__—_ SHREWD BUT CRUEL.

Samuel Stringer will in a few days leave the Jefferson Hospital of Philadelphia for his home in Niles, Ohio. He has been the subject of a most wonderful surgical opera- tion, the only one of its kind ever per- formed in the United States, says the Philadelphia Press. About @ year and a half ago @ cancerous growth made its appearance in his throat in the region of the esphagus, and in a short time closed the opening to such an extent that he found it impossible to pass solid food of any kind. ‘The physicians in charge advised the use of liquid food as the only means of suste- nance, and for thirteen months Stringer Mved on beef broth, milk, soups, coffee and soft-boiled eggs, but the malady increased and the growth’ finally closed up the aper- ture entirely, and for days he was unable to partake of any form of nourishment. Death by starvation was staring him in the face when he decided to place himself in the hands of the surgeons of one of the institutions of this city. He selected Jefferson Hospital and arrived there on the Bist of July of this year, a mere shadow of his former self. An operation was at once decided upon and after being etherized an incision was made from the middle of the abdomen clear through the walls, exposing the stomach, which was withdrawn from its cavity and a small opening made into it. Through the opening a rubber tube was inserted, the parts were then carefully put back in position and stayed, and the day after, by means of a funnel, some beef tea and warm milk were poured into the stomach for the first time. This way of feeding the patient has been regularly kept up for the past three weeks and soups, milk sop, soft-botled eggs, oat meal and other liquid food is administered three times a day and oftener if Stringer feels hungry. He has entirely recovered his health and is able to. walk about and will leave for his home in Ohio in a few days. For the Present he must feed himself through the rubber tube by means of a funnel which he keeps in a small case in his pocket, but after some months when the aperture and passage becomes defined, the rubber tube will be taken .out and the opening will then be permanent, requiring only the use of the funnel. ‘The operation is in every way @ success- ful one and Stringer will be able to live thi balance of his days without swallowing a Particle of nourishment. toe FAILED TO SCARE SIAM.
