B* BmJd, whowan preeent when the accident occurred-. Mr 1 Budd, who bad *.*ld2,300 aoree of tiroher to the J. W, Wilita LnraW Company, of this city,’ metMr. Chap­ man at Fulton, where the engine and boiler were unloaded from a Bat ear and placemen a large log wagon Mr. Willi# badW t down’ there, and w«# astktiug and directing Mr. Chapman in getting themachinerydown to Red River, cloaeby, and onto a barge, to transport It some live miles to themilt* rite ou Little River. . _ ■/ The engine, large balancewbeel iihd boiler wereall fast together, weighing right or nine, tone, and.it was evident °to*aU bnt Mr. Chapman that it *a# top-heavy on the wagon, and that the wagon was in coheijant danger o f top*' plhjg over while ip transit down the abrupt river bank, some twenty, feet in height, to the barge, ,> ' Mr. Chapman was warned of the danger; and different ones plead with him to let themremove the fly-wheel from the boiler, andthus insure safe ty, but Mr, Chapman thought that Would causeunnecessary delay, and he thought it could be gotten down onto the barge without going to all that trouble. So they arrangedwith pul­ leys and capstan, to which a span of horses wereattached, and the work of Joweringthe wagon and boiler was commenced, allowing it to move about six inches at a tiiSae. At the bottom of this declivity*.near where the end. of the barge was moored close to the shore, wasseveral feet in widthof soft ground, made more so from the eedi- ment o f sand and mud left there by the late rise in the river.' This aecu ■tjaaswkw-- iflfaaliV^-grilrr~f i l l IBTPtt ; aari» ride and space .made solid with timbers and plank, forming a bridge. From this bridge onto the end o f the bulge heavy plank about a foot wide were laid for the wheels of the wagon to run up on. ' When they had lowered the wagon onto the improvised bridge at six-inch stages there was a sudden slip in the pulley and then a slack, the wagon wheel struckand displaced the wheel- board on one aide by barely half of rite tire resting on the plank* causing the {dank to turn, and that pulled the top-heavy wagon over on one side. Mr. Chapman and a colored man bad been guiding the wagon tongue by bolding back by the breast chains on each ride, and when the warning oryVas given that the wagon wasfall tag over, Mr. Chapman, who was than at a safe distance, walked to the danger side o f the wagon and took his siaad at the aide o f the overturning wagon. Bat in attempting to escape fell feet slipped hi the pile of soft sand and mud tbay had removed from the bridge-had, aod he feMbackwards and feefbet be wmld ris# h#was pinned to the earth with tha weight o f nine tons * f beta* and. wagon, and burying all bet bk head out o f right in the soft earth, Biting him instantly. There were only two feoktisg jack* In the town and they had to take a deff m i m r two aritai up the river .imaaMMWBamauMma to a steamboat and get twomotejacks. Then when they did.get to work to jack np tbs immenw weightfrom the body Ike ground was to soft that they rimpiy sank deeper and deeper in the earth ay they put on the power, and they had to place blocks of timbers under thejack* ,and keep at it until finally they got a solid foundation so that jacks would bold, and tha body was taken out from under the mass of iron at midnight, mxhours after the accident occured, , . Strange to tell, Mr, Rudd says that notwithstanding the large wheel that pinned Mr. Chapman to?tbe earth had every spoke broken out of it*yet .not a bone in Mr. Chapman's. bady was broken except the thumb. But the pressure of blood to the head caused the face to turn black and remain in thatcondition,. Mr. BttdcLwha is the owner o f 6 ,000 acres of fine timber land in the Little River country, lives, at Inde­ pendence, Arkansas, with his family. He baalaid out two towns on bis land —Ogden and Red Bluff,^Ogden being the station from which the J, W. Willis Lumher Company will ship their lumber, and from 1 where' they will rub a Bhort switch to their mill. Mr, Rudd says Mr, Chapman was HERALD’S WEEKLY PHOTOGRAPH, well pleased with'that country, and especially the fine timberon their pur­ chase, which is composed o f oak, ash, hickory'and some walnut. Oak trees that' were seventy feet to first limbs werenumerous on'this land, and that ofbourse was a pleasant surprise' to Mr. Chapman, The remains were,met atCincinnati by Messrs. Wm, H. Dial and A.

Medical Talk for the Home, Cays: “ Lettuce is an absolute preventive of smallpox; that uo one is in the least particle o f danger o f catching small­ pox who eats a little lettuce every day; that smallpox belongs to the scorbutic dam of diseases, and that sailors, at sea, deprived of fresh vege­ tables, get scurvey. Scurvey u a typ­ ical scorbutic disease. Smallpox is another, aud which always rages dur­ ing the winter seasonwhen the poor peopleare deprived of freab vegetable foods; that ester} and onions are good for this purpose, but there is such long, interval between thsir being gathered and being eaten that they lose most of tbeir ami-scorbutic prop­ erties. Lettuoe is served shortly after it is picked, and hence contains the valuable properties whichwill prevent smallpox. “ W* say without the least hesita­ tion or reserve, that lettuce will pre vent smallpox; that it is a thousand times better than vaccination, as it has no Abilities to produce other dis- i, and that those who eat lettuce daily will not catch tha smallpox, whether they be vaccinated or not. “ Lsttnce » «n absolute specifics as a preventive of this disease, All fear o f smallpoxmay vanish when thissim­ ple precaution is taken.

' In the death of Dr. avid Mac Dill, the United Presbyterian church lost one of its strongest members. His death occured at hie home in Xenia last Sabbath morning and was a great shock to his friends.

He studied theology at Oxford and A?- legheney and took hia first charge at Cherry Fork,* Ohio, in 1868. In 1876 he.was appointed to Chata Philosophy iuAfonmouth college. In 188.0 he was appointed professor in theTheological Seminary, bufcresignec; about one year ago, Dr. MacDil was a trustee of Miami, Univetaity, having been appointed two years ago by Goy, Nash.

The manufactures of Castoria have been compelled to spend hundreds of thousands o f dollars to fainaliarize the public with tbe signature of Chns. H. Fletcher, This has been necessitated by reason of pirates counterfeiting the Castoria trade-mark. This .counter feitiug is a crime not only against the proprietors of Oastoria, but against tbe growing generation. All persons should be careful to see that Castoria bears thesignature ofChas.H* Fletch er, if they would guard the health o f theta children. •Parents, and moth­ ers iu particular, ought tb carefully examine the Castoria advertisements which have been appearing in this paper, and to remember/ that the wrapper of every bottle of genuine Castoria bears the fac simile signature of Chas. it. Fletcher, under whose Supervision it has been manufactured continuously for over thirty years, Phils. Bulletin, CASE SET FOR SATURDAY Tbe George Dean case comes before Mayor McFarland Saturday morning for final bearing. This casehas been postponed some four or five times on the grounds of sickness Ofthe defend­ ant,' At the last date set his attor­ ney furbished a physician's certificate showing bis inability to be present. Some say that Dean is able ta be around the streets of Xenia and’ that he is using this method to dodge trial. It is hoped that the case will be set­ tled tomorrow as the committee has other work that they will have to look after. DR. TALMAGE WAS INSURED. Brooklyn, N. Y ., Nov. 28th, 1892. Robert A.
