Swanson Musie Co., Masonic templo xpected Some Mistortun -, The case of Willam Parkhill, who was crushed by the cars Thursday evening, turns outtobe a very sadone. He has always been noted among his fellow workmen for his cconomy, every cent that was not absolutely needed in tho ca mg for his family being applica o paywng for a home on” South avenue. The homa was a very humble one, but he had just succeeded n getting it paid for a_fow days ago. Thursday before going to his work he spent quite a while m going ovor the papers. that secured his home to him, and yesterday they were found to have ' been careful arranged as though he had had a presen ment of what was to como Mrs. Parkbill, the wife of the unfortanate man, also seemed to have a forewarning thav some misfortune was about to happen to her, The fact that her husband was killed was carefully kept secret from her Thursday night, and some of the ncighbors went over ‘early In_ the morning, thinking that thoy would break tho news to her i a loss abrupt munner than if she vead of it first in the papers. They had no sooner entered the door than sho told them she kuew thoy had come to tell her somo bad uews, aid usked them not to keep it from her auy longer than thoy must. When informea of her bereavement she was couipletely vroken down, and wept piteously, The inquest over the body of the dead man was beld yesterday morning in W. C. Estop's undertaking rooms. A jury was empaneled consisting of C. 8. Hubbard, 5. Cavalt and James Horn, The testimony of John Costello, foreman of the crew which was working on the track at the place where the accident took place, C. B. Liebold, engineor of the same crew, M. Jones, a ‘switchman, C, A, Kuott, F.'W. Truds, George Winer and Klmer Pratt, the night yardmaster, was taken in order. It was aoveloped that two crews of men had beeu working, one at each end of the yard, making up the trains from the cars on track No. 5. The crews who do this sort of work have never had to watch each other's doings, and a switchman who was engaged in making a coupling had to ruu the risk of baving & car seut flying against the other ond of the train he is at work on at any time. Mrs. Parkbill isloft in a most distressing condition by the acath of her husband. She bas ine children, of whom the majority are under 12 years of age. The oldest, & girl of 17 years, has been working out for some time past and helpiug the family what little she could i that way. A brother of the dead man is expected to arrve this morning from Des Moines, and when he comes the arrangements will be mude for the funeral. It will probably take place on Sun- day afternoon, under the auspices of the switchman's union, of which the dereased was & member.

Au iuformation bas been issued in Justice Hammer's court against May Thompson, a woman who has living over Waltor's haruess shoo on Upper Broadway, charglog bev with being an inmate of a house of pros itution. The complanant is Mrs. William Priost, wife of a barber who hus been doing business on Broadway near the corner of First street. The filing of the information is the sequel to & been story of domestic troubles which nave been going on in the Priest household for some time past. Mrs. Priest olaims that her husband has been led nstray by the machinations of Miss Thompson, 80 that sho is cheated out of tnat portion of her bus- band’s society which belongs to her by right. She deternined to put a stop to this, ana with that end in view has in- volved the strong arm of the law to her nssistance. Miss Thompson learned that something desperate was about to be done, however, and a day or two ago shut up her house and flea to the seasido. Priestsold out his barber shop, and there was a report last night that he had left town, but an investigation failed to verify the rumor. All efforts to find the woman have beon nnavailing, but Justice Hammer's office will be kept warm for her night and day in tno hope that she will return, Genuine tortoise shell combs at Bur- horn’s, Carman Feed and Fuel wholesale and retail hay, feed.

Oxaua, Dec. 17.—To. the Editor of Tae Bee: A friend asks, who wroto the poem, ‘Every Year{ The poem ‘“Every Year" originally emanated from the psn of the late Goneral Albert Pike. Had any doubt haratotore ex- 1sted it would b3 swept away by tha asser- tlon of Mr. T. S. Parvin, grand secretacy of the grand lodge of Towa, who is ackaowl- edged authority in all matters of this kind. No less than six “Ivery Yoar” poows, crouited to as' many different authors, have come to my notice and of which I have files, and 1n some instances as cited by Mr. Parvin, are identical to tho poom ascribed to Gianoral Piko. Tosome of usthese mystic words “Every Year,” are fraught with very des old meémories. A bit of unwritten history in connection herewith is the fact that the poem “Evory Yoar,” by “Mary I. Briggs,” was read by Longfellow just prior to his death, and a let- ter to Mrs. B. written by his duughter, Mrs. Charles A. Dana, and signed by himself, con- tains this paragraph: “Presuming that you have other copies of the poems sent me, 1 yenture to keep these, uno am, yours with all good wishes.” (Signed.) A most peculiar and significant value is at- tached to this poem. Tt never appeared in print in the wost until we prosented it to the “Pioneer Lawmakers of Iowa” at their quad- rennial meeting, beld at Des Moines, 1890, when it was made a part of the oficial record ot that body, the Hon. Theodore S. Parvin bemg preseut at the time. Most respoctfully, Mus, xo. S, Brigus, R s COMPARISONS ARE ODIOUS, Railroad Contracts Suggested by the Bordentown Monument., The first railroad monument erected in this country was unveiled at Borden- town, N. I, by the Pennsylvania!Railrond compuny, on the sixtieth anniversary of the operation of a stean railroad in the state, On November 12, 1831, the ‘John Bull,” a locomotive brought over from England by Colonel John Stevens, in August of that yeur, made its first trip with a load of passengers over a piece of track laid between where the monument now stands and a granite shaft about 8,500 feet eastward . of it. After a long and bitter fight the project.of a steam railway had advanced far enough to ustify'n public tefdl teip, und accord- ingly on that day, 60 years ago, a large number of the member's of the legislature and other state officials boarded the two carvinge-like cars,-und the train made several trips over the short line without accident or delay I'his trial, althpugh it was not followed by others till somglime afterwards, us many defects in the locomotive had to be veome, practiculfy opened the era of | n the state. On this first trip "with passengers the engineer was Isaa® Dripps, who is still living. now 82 yeur® old. The old engine is still in existenc¢e’in the United States National Museum#in Washington, It weighs only ten tons, and the boiler is 12 feet long and feet 6 inches in diameter. The firing was dono with pine ' cask that held the water for the boller, | and wigh two of the high-bodied coaches attached.
