A.'Wajroti ami Driver Upset bf nu En
Kino nt tlio Elovomh Street
Crossing.
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.

"An old i-nginccr" in the Xow York Sim.
"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.

The Boo Line railway is conducted on

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

The newspaper pictures of John A ,
Logan do not do that gentleman justice.
At his best Logan is not a beautiful ob-
iect , but ho is by no moans the cheap
ookinx nreaturo the newspaper portraits
would load ono to suspect. Logan is not
an Indian doctor nor n patent medicine *
von J or , When ho attires himself In hiu
itoro clothes and gets his hair and IIIUH-
.acho nicely ponionted , ho really presents
very attractive appearance , Ho has an
irect figure and his bearing , is soldierly.
IU whplo expression is ono of vitality
and manliness. But the pictures of him
uow beiu ; ; circulated throughout the
country prints reprt'so.-it im as a dishev
eled bumpkin sulloriug with an acute liver
complaint. _
