Keb- Ul.-Three live* were lost and aeventy-nlue per*ou» more or lees aerloualy Injured wlicn tbe Tuxedo dub special of tbe Krte railroad was ditched on tbe Berjen Bhort cut midway between ’ft'ar rvu Point and Fair lawn, N. J.. about four miles north of Patereon. Tbf train left tbe track and rolled down an embankment Into a deep ditch. Of tbe three killed but *wo have been Identified—UIs- Grace Matthews, on her way to New York to seek a |»oaition to aid her ajted mother, and All** Mary Spec a. eighteen years old. of Turners, N Y The third was a woman about seventy live years old. That tbe wreck was due to a flaw in a casting ou tbe truck of tbe enrtne tender was the statement of an ottlcial of the Erie comperuy. He declared the accident unavoidable and said no one was to blame. Of tbe ISO passengers on tbe train were many wealthy residents of Tuxedo. Suffern and other {mints near by. They were mostly brokers, lawyers) and bnsiueas Jueu on their way to New York to buaine-ut. The train was made up of a parlor car. smoker, a day coach and a Tuxedo club special car. The train started from Suffern and was half an hour Intc. making up lost time when the accident occurred. One mile a minute is said to be the sctMxlule time of the dub tntin at the (mint where tbe smoking car left tbe rails. Tbo train Is said to have bee a making nearly that B(>*ed. and fo.nearly half a mile the smoker was drugged and t>uni|»e.l along ihe track la-fore the ears and engine left the

track.

In his effort to pull tbe he!! rope and stop tbe train when tbe smoker left the track Clifford Walk an office tsiy ployed in New York, was hurled against a window and severely cut about the head. All that saved the wreck from Itelng one -of the most horrible In tbe annals of railroading In tills section was tbe fact that after tbe cars Jumped the track they pounded along on the ties )Ar a quarter of a mile before plunging the embankment. The entire jkx of four care—a combination baggage and smoking car—went into the ditch, but speed had begn slackened, and tbe ditch was full of auow. Tbe train, running at talgb *i«-ed. bad just passed over a switch at Warren Point when tbe rear truck of the tend «r broke Tbe back of tbe tender swung to one side, and this threw tbe first of tbe five cars off tbe track and broke tbe coupling between the car and tbe tender. Tbe train plunged ahead for a dialsD'-e of a thousand yards, tearing up the tracks aa it went, and finally, while the passengers were trying frantically to reach tbe doors, all fire cars rolled over the ten foot emiwnkment alongside tbe track. Three of',tbe tart turned completely over and m.w lie upside down. The engine did rmt leave tbe track and ran nearly half a mile before It could be brought to a ENGINEER MURDERED.

The Golden Text. ’1 am the Living Bread which cam* down from Heaven." This declaration of Jesus commands our attention, because God has said that “Man shall not live by bread alone.” When Jesns called Himself the "Living Breed." It was to announce the relations which He waa to anstaln to tbe sonl. As a body was fed by bread, eo He. tbe Living Bread, waa to feed tbe soul. Living Bread to •atiafy soul hunger, therefore. ' Blessed are they which do banger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall b% filled." "Lord, evermore give ns this Bread."
