A oorious nccidont occured yostordny at the crossing of the Union Pnclfia tracks on Klovcnth street. William PAIOOO , n boy about fifteen years of ago , who is omplqyod ni a driver of ono of Mr. St. Felix's grocery w/igons / , was waiting at the Eiovonlh street cross ing for switch engine No. 93 to clour the crossing , The engine backed up just clear of the wagon track and the boy at tempted to drive across. Just as his wogon was in front of the engine and only a few inches from it , the engineer started ahead. The engine struck the wagon , overturning it and vhroiviug the boy to the ground. In his fall his head struck upon a rail and ho was picked up and carried into Boll's drug store for dead. A physician was called and when ho arrived blood was flowing from the boy'a mouth nnd oars. Ho was soon resuscitated , however , and Mr. St. Felix , who had boon notified wont down with a carriage nnd took the boy to his homo , on Fnrnatn street , between - twoon Fifteenth and Sixteenth. Ho is not' so badly hurt ns was at first thought and will got along nil right. The wagon and groceries wore badly demoralized and the horse ran away. A FALLING METEOR , A. Beautiful SlRlit In tlio Western lien von H Humlny Night. Sunday evening about 9:30 : , a beautiful sight was to bo seen in the western heav ens. A BEE reporter , who happened to bo at the corner of Eighteenth and Jack- sou streets at that time , had his attention attracted by a report , as of a pistol , in the heavens abovo. Looking up , a largo star was soon , Burroundou by sparks of fire. All at once tlio sparks faded from view , and the star , which was an unusu ally largo ono , began to move slowly across the heavens in n northwesterly di rection. As the reporter looked ho was moio astonished , for almost in the twinkling of an eye , the color of the heavenly visi tor changed to a blood red and it was so bright as to give a reddish glow to the heavens for some little distance around it. It continued to move and finally sank below the horizon , leaving behind it a reddish glow. It was probably a meteor and it will doubtless bo heard from as falling somo- wboro out in the state. It was a beauti ful sight and all who saw it nro moro than over impressed with the greatness and wonders of this immense univorso.

"Speaking of Rogers the locomotive builder , reminds mo of an intoroatiug in cident connected with the early days ol locomotive building and railroading in this country. Commissioner Swinburne , who died at Patterson last fall , was ono of the first practical locomotive buildore and ho commenced business on a small BC.ilo about forty years ago in that city. Rogers was then laying the foundation ol the works that nro now known all over the world. Swinburne and llogors were rivals. The Erie road was then in operation only as far as Middlotown. Both of the 1 attorson locomotive builders had turned out locomotives for the road nnd there was great diversity of opinion among the engineers as to the fastest of the clilFor out machines. The The Swinburne on gilios had a firm friend and advocate in Josh Martin , and the llogors make was championed by Gad Lyman , two of the original pioneers on tlio Erie , nnd two of the best that over opened n throttle. In 1830 the company purchased a loco motive from the S winburno make. S win burno wa > not looked upon with much favor by the powers of the road at that time , and the hope of iurnidg out n miv chino that would make him solid , ho did tlio most of the work on this locomotive with his own hands. She was called Np. 71 , and when she was delivered to the company to bo tested , Swinburno requested that she bo placed on John Martin's run. Bui she wasn't. Gad Lyman wns told to handle 74 , nnd ho took her. Ho reported after every run that ho couldn't make time with her , and declared that ho must have n Rogers engine. Josh Martin was sure that ho could do good work with 71 , nnd ho bogfiod for the chance , but she wus taken off regular work and put to duty aa a gravel train. ' Well , Josh Martin almn < abroko heart over that. Every chance ho'd got ho'd run down to Piormont , took 74 over , and appeal to Master Mechanic Brant to give her a chance with him. Swinburno was knocked flat by the failure of his pot , and ho joined in with Martin for a now trial. At last Brant got mad. Ho told Joah to take 71 'and go to with her. ' Josh had her taken back to the shop to have her overhauled to see what was the matter with her. .Nothing wrong could bo found. Then ho tried her on his run. His first report of.hor abilities was that it was all ho could do to keep her from getting to Susquehauna an hour ahead of timo. That was a big feather in Swin burne's cap , but two mouths later 71 and Martin gave him a boost that started him on ths road to tho3,000.000 ho loft "Tho Erioroad was opened to Dunkirk in May , 1851. Early in that month Gad Lyman was notified that ho was to take his onaino , No. 100 , and run ono of the excursion trains ou that occasion from Piermont to Dunkirk. The 100 was a Rogers' engine. Lyman started with the train. It had nine cars , but they were too heavy for Gad Lyman's engine , and when they reached Middlotown the train was almost an hour behind time. Then Superintendent Charles Minot telegraphed - graphed to Port Jorvis to have old 71 and Josh Martin on hand to take the place of Lyman and his Rogora online. Josh and 71 were waiting when the train got bo Port ) Jorvis. They coupled on. Swinbutno was one of the excursion ists. When ho found that his pet engine was to try and redeem the character of the road , ho came near fainting. But away Joah wont , an hour behind timo. If over a railroad train sung along the precipices of the Delaware valley , it did that day. Lld ) Joah whirled that excursion train : nto Narrowaburg in just thirty minutes , lud the distance is thirty-four ratios. When ho reached Depoalt , sixty miles further on , every minute of the lost time vias made up , and 71 tore down Lake Erie into the western terminus of the road only _ n few minutes behind the schedule tirnc. Swinburno was made , and Josh Martin made him , The former gathered in his millions , The latter was running n switch engine at $00 a month the last I over hoard of him , boiiif ; too old for regular train scavico.

Marvellous as are the "freaks" ghth- jrod together by the show people , they wven't anything in the way of n human curiosity to compare with a remarkable being confined in the county infirmary of Pike county , The creature is a man but his right io that title rests solely upon the fact that ho was born of wo man. In every other respect ho differs [ rom his kind and possesses no attributes in common with ordinary ropregonta- tivoa of his sex , Ho bears upon hUpor- eon , his habits and vocal organs , till of the characteristics of n bull , in as nearly a perfect form as possible for a two legged feature to possess them. This remarka ble creature is named John Ilaincs , and s 40 years old. He is the son of very re spectable parents , who at thn time ot the monster's birth lived in Pebble township. Twelve years ago the mother who gave birth to this unnatural object died , but lits father ia still living , Prior to the 4 mother's death John was watched and ; arod for at homo , but since her demise , 10 has been confined In the infirmary , Iho existence of the monstrosity it known to comparatively few people , and many of the o who do know of his be ing have never seen him , being dotorrcd from viaiting his cell because of the terri 1 ble eight that would meet their eyes. Jlaines , or "John , " as ho'ia called by everybody who has , occasion to speak about him , has boon confined at the in firmary for twelve years. Ho is of med ium height , with a very large lioad , and the forehead brood and bold , with a strongly marked ridge running down the . center of it. The nidus of the head are a flat , running back almost at right angles with a forehead , while the top of the : head slopes backward and downward at g. vli&rp incline , leaving the cranium without brain room , /tcoiadurk skinned , heavy and brutish in express- ion , and very ropuloivo , The oyus nro like those of u bovine , and roll about in j his head in an aniroalith sort of way A I iicnvy jnoulli , in which u rosUiw tongue | li is almost constantly rolling A quid , stren gthens the creature's lik'oncss tc a bull. His largo oars sUnd out from his head like these of nn at armed boast. The long , thick , nnd bushy hood is cov ered by n close growth of short , coarto stubby hair , his shou'.dora ' nnd breast are romarknblo features of the monster , they being extraordinarily thick and hoayy. Ho has n remarkable depth of cheat , the formation of which bonrs n strong resom- bianco to that of his shaggy counterpart. From the breast downward his body grmlunlly tapoas to the thighs. His 1 iw- or limbs nro slender nnd joined together like thoio of n noble steer. The foot and hands nro these of n man. John in a remarkably strong nnd vigor ous combination of flesh nnd bono , and prior to his confinement In thoinfirmary ho was noted for his wonderful speed on foot. II o would dart nwny from his homo into the wuoda and run like a hound for miles , inakitip the air melodious as ho went , hollowing like _ n bull. His action ) are nil governed bv instinct. His reason is an inftnitosMtnal quantity. Ho lacks the power of speech , and the only words that ho can Bay that possesses meaning to his hearers is , "bicca. " Ilo is intensely fond of tobacco , and the first thing a visitor hears when nearing his apartment is his cry , "Baccal Baccal" When ho is given n piece of the palata ble loaf , ho tears it into little pieces , put ting them into his mouth ono nt n time. Ho rolls tlio tobacco around with his tongue like n cow chows n quid of grass nnd finally swnllows tlio moss tobacco , snlvn nnd nil. Tobacco is a luxury that fills the poor devil with keen delight , nnd when ho sees * n pouch produced his eyes roll in pleasurable anticipation. John is kept in constant confinement in n little eight by ton cell , the entrance to which is Jmd through u barred door of heavy hickory strips. Just In the rear of this is an inclcsuro. twenty or thirty foot square nnd unroofed. The fence surrounding it is about twenty feet in height. This ia John's prorcisiug yard , Ho possesses the instincts of a bull , and is strongly affected by changes of the weather. Ho becomes greatly excited just before a. rain , thunder , now , or wind storm , and will plunge out into 1iiat exorcising pen , tear round at n fearful rate , pawing up the earth and hollowing most frightfully. Ho has n voice of wonderful power , nnd the bullish uoiso ho makes can bo hoard for a mile around They cannot bo distinguished by a stranger from these of n gorgeous bull. So unerring is John in his demon strations , that the residents of that local ity rely ou him as their barometer , and ho never failuoacquaint thorn with pending ing meteorological changes. Ho wears men's coarse clothing , after a manner peculiar to himself. Ho can not bo induced to use suspenders. He ia frequently presented with these useful appendages to n male a toilet , but it mat ters not how bright nnd gaudy the colors may bo , John will tear the suspenders up and ornament his nock , arms , andl ega with the pieces. Ho keeps his pantaloons in place by constantly holding them up by the band in front. When cup hand is tired ho catches n fresh grip with the other and struts around his dismal quar ters with all the pomp and circumstance cf a prize bull at an ugticultural fair. Ho sleeps upon a small cot in ono corner af his cell , having for his bod-fellows 3 number of old tin cans , bones and brick bats. He never removed his pantaloons , and nothing can induce him to wear shoes. Ho is a ruggad , healthy creature with o body' llko 'b4H"YWrf-\i ' \ voioo like n cyclono. v The man's history is a sad ono. His mother , a very pleasant and intollgont woman , was ono day crossing a field not far from their homo a few months prior to John's birth. A vicious bull was pas tured in the fold , and when ho caught sight of Mrs. Haines ho came plunging toward her at full tilt , snorting angrily. The terribly affrighted woman ran with all speed to the nearest fence , and suc ceeded in getting on the other aide of it before the bull , which was close in her wake , could harm her. The shock was n terrible ono , and Mrs. Haines suffered for days from nervous prostration. The terrible effects of that fright were Im pressed upon her unborn child , and when lie was ushered into the world the poor mother found that her offspring partook uoro of the nature of a bull than ho did that of a human being. Her grief over this misfortune was pitiable , and for al most thirty years her lifo was embittered by a contemplation of the hideous child. When the wretched woman died John was removed to the infirmary , and has been confined there over sinco. of North Carolina Tobacco is the boat. _ Boo Ijliioljouoiiiot I vo Service. From the ClcnchuiJ Herald. The Boo Line railway is conducted on the strict civil-aervico-rcform prinoip1 ! } . When engineers nro needed u certain number of reliable firemen are examined , first by the divison superintendent with reference to their knowledge of the rules of the company , Then the master mechanic examined thorn OB to their knowledge of the engine , and If they paes they are given certificates as engineers of the second class nnd are placed at the throttle of yard engines. One of the points on which an en gineer is expected to mal'o a record is with respect to economy in fuel. After two years' aorvlco as yard engineer they are nligiblo. If they pass a second examina tion , to promotion to the position of road engineer. The company then gives them certificates of the first-class , simi lar in form to those given by the gov ernment. This ataict system has and is working wonderw. In April , 1883 , it co t the company 17,21 cents per milo to run its locomotives , and lait April this bad been reduced to 14,30 cents , and that , too , without cutting down the wages of the engineers. Indeed , when it obtained control of the I , & St. L. , the Boo Line raised tlio pay of engineers From 3 to 3J cents per milo. The sav ing in repairs was the difference between 2.00 cents per mile in April , 1B84 , and 70 in 1883. fuel 4 , M cent per mtlo as compared with 0,00 cent in 1883 , stores ,30 cent as compared with ,05 cent , and wages 0.04 as compared with 0,31 in April , 1883.
