Wreck at Sterling Run. The second section of freight train No. 60 was be hind time coming east this morning and was coming along at a rather rapid clip when the accident happened. A coupling broke and in less than a minute thereafter young Nicholas was a corpse. The deceased was a rear brakeman on this trip and sat down on the rear end of a car of lumber.

The car back of this was a box car loaded with charcoal. When the accident happened the cars telescoped and Mr. Nicholas was burried among the debris. Conduetor David Haupt was thrown from his train with considerable force but fortunately was not seriously injured. Flagman Harry Snyder was in the cabin car and was pitched head foremost out of the upper window His nose was scratched and one of his fingers lacerated but beyond this he was uninjured.

How he escaped more serious in jury he cannot explain himself. The crew was immediately attracted to scene of the greater portion of the smash up and were horrified to find the remains of brakeman Nicholas inside the lumber car, badly mangled and covered over with charcoal and lumber. Lawrence Nicholas, the unfortunate victim of the mishap, was a son of Conductor and Mrs. Martin Nicholas, of Renovo. He was about 19 years of age and had been braking on the road a little less than a year.

He was a bright capable young man and was being steadily advanced in his chosen line of work.Renovo News, Sept. 16. A Girl's Experience in Boston. A sparkling serial of Boston life, under the title of "Her Boston Experiences," will begin in the next issue of The Ladies' Home Journal. It is written by Margaret Allston, a vivacious well-bred girl who spent a winter in Boston with relatives living in' Back Bay and was taken everywhere in the most exclusive social, dramatic, literary and musical circles.

She saw the best and worst of Boston life, and she tells both as she saw them, all in a bright but audaciously frank manner, until the picture becomes a perfect biograph of Boston life and people of to-day. Will Reside Here. Mrs. McNarney, nee Miss Winner, of of Lock Haven, wife of Second Lieutenant Frank T. MeNarney, of Company Thirty-sixth Infantry, and his mother, who have been visiting with the Lieutenant in Columbus, have returned home and will reside in this city.
