Foard. The judges took Mr. Crouch from the sulky of Sagwa and gave Claremont, whose driver bad been driving unfairly, into his charge. The officers of the Association knew that this injured chances and permitted his owner to draw the horse and refunded his entrance fee. Had Mr.

Crouch driven Sagwa throughout the race, Mr. Foard thinks Sagwa would have secured second or third place. Mr. Crouch did well behind Claremont and added to his reputation as first-class driver of trotters and pacers. wedding of two danglers of Samuel W.

The building will be of brick, with stone trimmings, while the front of the main ouilding will be quite ornate in appearance. Two stories will extend over the whole building, but the central portion will be higher than the rest and surmounted with a tower in which will be placed a large clock face. The mode of announcement of this clock will be a striking and pleasant innovation over the customary bell or traditional chime, in that large organ pipes will be made to sound and announce the hour. Part of the main building will he used as a department, where all organs will be placed in position and tested. This portion will have no second floor, so that very large organs can be put up without inconvenience.

The whole building will be in full view of passing B. trains and for this reason the capacious grounds of the company will eventually be laid out and beautified with flowers, See.

Railroad near North Khhl. Probably the worst railroad accident that eror occurred iu Cecil county was that ot last Saturday on the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad, near North East. The scone of the accident is known as Stony Run curve and is near the Maryland Kaolin Works, about one mile south of North East. The Washington and New York express, known by train men as No. 92, which leaves Washington at S.IO a.

m. and Baltimore at 9 OS and passes North East at 10.00 was the train derailed. It is one of the fastest trains on the road and was drawn by engine No. 333, recently manufactured, which was said to bo capable of drawing a train at a speed of 70 miles an hour. The train to which it was attached consisted of a combination baggage, mail and smoking oar, a Pullman parlor car and three passenger coaches.

A freight train bad passed southward a minute or two before the reached the curve, an iron barred door bad fallen from one of the freight cars on to the northbound track. It was impossible for the engineer of the express to see the obstacle until almost upon it. The engine jumped the track. It leaped 25 feet before alighting on the crossties and then tore ties and scattered the rails for a number of feet and partly hurried itself in the bank about 300 yards from where it left the track. The tenner was wrenched from the engine and kept on a few yards before it was turned over on its side on the bank.

The Pullman kept on a little further and turned almost upside down. The other cars went about 200 feet past the engine. The trucks were torn from under them but with the exception of the smoker they were not turned over. There were 100 persons on the train and about one fifth of the number were more or less injured. Dr.

P. B. Housekeeper and Dr. Rittenhouse, of North East, were soon at the scene. Dr.

Stocker, of Philadelphia, who was on the train, although slightly injured himself, rendered first attention to the wounded. A wrecking train from Philadelphia soon brought Dr. Draper, from Wilmington, and Drs. Chas. M.

Ellis, H. H. Mitchell, Howard Bratton, J. H. Jamar and J.

Frazer, of Elkton, to the wreck. Mr. H. C. Wells, of Elkton, assisted the physicians.

Mr. Dennis Cauley, superintendent of the Chemical Works of the McCullough Iron Company, which are near by, had the works shut down and the employes went to the assistance of the passengers some of whom had to break the windows of the cars and crawl out through the opening thus made. After the accident fire broke out in the baggage car. Baggage Master Boyle who was out and bruised, managed to climb out of the car by standing on a trunk. He secured a bucket and using water from the engine extinguished the flames not however, until the flooring ot the car was somewhat burned and a canvas mail bag containing papers had been destroyed.

Holes were burned in several leather bags containing letters. The engineer, Wm. Beckley, had his left leg broken in two places, and A. Lawson, the conductor of the Pullman, re oeived severe injuries on the head. Ho was also hurt about the shoulder.

Others were hurt, but none seriously. Their wounds were caused by falling glass and by being suddenly thrown against the sides of the oars. The list of injured is as follows: C. A. Lawson, of Philadelphia, conductor of the Pullman, injured about the head; may die.

Wm. Beckley, engineer, of Philadelphia, compound fracture of the left leg and injured in the side. Martin Iszard. of Puiladelphia, conductor, hurt about the head and side. Of the passengers a number were injured but none seriously.
