Anderson Meets With who on P. Dunn city, died Saturday night at the Alle- ganv hospital from injuries sustained a' fall from his train near Connellsville. 24 hours previously. He was a Baltimore and Ohio brakeman. In the fall he sustained a fracture at the base of the skull.

Mr. Anderson -was found lying along the track and was carried to Markleton Sanitarium. Friday he was brought to Cumberland and taken to the Allegany hospital. The body was prepared for burial moment Officer Chaney was upon him and had Earsom in his fond embrace. It hard to tell which was the most surprised, Earsom or the people witnessed the unexpected coupe of the officer.

There is also a mystery in connection with the arrest almost as great as the thieving, and that-was, where Officer Chaney came from? S.o one saw the officer in the neighborhood, but at the right moment he dropped upon his victim, like a hawk upon an innocent chicken, and tne next thing the man knew who was stealing was to find himself on the way to the police station. Now tne question, the one absorbing question, is where did Officer Chaney come Some seem to think he must have dropped from an "aeroplane, or else had suspended himself in some manner directly over the buggy, and came down when some one at the po- station pressed the button. Any wav. Officer Chancy got there and des'erves credit for his cleverness. Just why Mr.

Lindner was picked out for a victim the second time is a little strange. Many other wagons stop at the same place. Earsom gave bond for his appearance for trial at the police station this evening. Since the above was written Officer Chaney. who made the arrest, was seen.

He stated that prior to eaten her first It became days 1 tried to pronounce name and lisped "Ouida. her pet name. That is one story. Another is that "Oui-da" is only an emphatic self-assertive, as an American would say, "Yes, sirree. In 1S63 she began to write.

She earned an immense amount of money.
