The frisky bicycle, yet that wheel of mine bad acted so deccntl) that I had sufficient confidence iu its good conduct to venture it to take me safely over the plank across the ditch. But a man proposes ami a bicycle dis poses! When I got half way across the ditch the bicycle got a dizzy on spell, it made a few the plank and then hopped into the ditch to make some morn zigzags there.

The exact particulars in railway accidents are always difficult lo when it is necessary to rely ou railway men for information. The present case is no exception. From other sources though, tha story of tho wreck is told substantially as folio wn; l'be engine ou which Pickering was employed and ou which he met ids death while at the post of duty was No- 138 and had been ordertd west from Thistle with Cdnall at the throttle to assist a freight up the cauyou which was to Ibiive Springville iu charge of Engineer Sullivan.

Death was instantaneous. Fireman Burns escaped death by jumping. Last night the of l'ickcriug, aud the in jured men wer,o brought to this city. Pickering was a married man with a family of young children. He was 26 years of age, ami regarded as n fait h Til employe.
