One Man Cremated aad Three Others :ailway Tom Hendricks last week bought a house and lot In Bast Brookville and his friends are now convinced that Tom means business. He acted wisely in proriding a cage before catching the bird. Of course he denies the soft impeachment but every body knows better. The late Schuyler S. Jackson left a will in which he bequeathed $500 to each of his seven children by his first wife. The remainder of his estate he left to his second wife.

E. church last Thursday afternoon and evening. There was a large number present and the exercises were very interesting to those engaged in Sunday School work.' The new "Guyasutlm" club now has a membership of over 80.

Ladies Committee No. 3, of the Presbyterian church, treated our people to a musical entertainment on Tuesday night of laet week that waa one of the best performances of the kind ever given in Brookville. Ernest Gamble, basso, and Edwin M. Shonert, pianoist, rendered an hours programme of which each number waa heartily encored, the performer being compelled to appear time and again. The church was well filled and the ladies netted a snug little sum for their trouble. Brookville is very much excited over the robberies and attempts at robbery that have been perpetrated in the past two weeks. Over a dozen houses have been entered, but as far as is known the only losses sustained were those of IT. N. Brosius, who lost four dollars, and that ot P. H. Woodward, who lost less than three dollars. Notwithstanding the strict watch being kept attempts are made nightly to break into houses. There is no doubt that some of the worthies will enter the wrong house some night and come to grief. Register and Recorder John D.

Notioe to Taxpayers. William Kerr, a bridge builder of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, aged 22 years, had two ugly scalp wounds, a broken ankle, and was supposed to be injured internally. An unknown tramp, who was stealing a ride, was slightly injured. All of the cars wrecked and burned were heavily loaded with freight, and the loss to the Pittoburg & Western Railroad Company is heavy. Clarence O. Sprague, engineer on the extra freight, had his shoulder dislocated and was badly cut and bruised, but will reoover. The fireman was also badly cut about the head and body, and was taken to his home in Bonnett in an unconscious condition. A rescuing party then went to work and the body of Thomas O'Hara waa found. He waa dead and partially cremated. He lived in Tltusvllle and waa on his way to Pittsburg in search of work. He was 28 years of age. An account given by the Pittsburg Times says: " Immediately after the collision, the broken cars in the rear end of the local train that were piled up, were ignited from the tire in the furnace of the wrecked engine of the extra. The flames communicated with the four front cars on the fust freight, and for a time all the cars on both trains were in danger of destruction. The hundreds of persons who were attracted to the scene were too panicstricken for a time to act. When the excitement had subsided the remaining cars were detached from those which were on fire and shifted to a switch." The B., It. & P. " llyer," which is due here at 1.28 a. in., did not arrive on Tuesday morning until 9.30, being delayed by a freight wreck on the Pittsburg & West ern Railroad at Gibsonia station, sixteen miles out of Pittsburg. An oxtra through freight train of thirty cars dashed into the rear of a local freight train of twenty cars. The engine of the rear train plunged almost through two of the reur cars of the local, and four cars of the extra freight were piled on top of one another. Altogether there were ten cars derailed and wrecked. Time for Olovei. PUNXSUTAWNEY, PA. I There was a largo crowd oil the oponi night.
