Killed while at work
William STEINER, an air tester at the Union station, Pittsburg, was
instantly killed on Tuesday night. He was preparing to examine an automatic
coupler, which was out of order, and the engineer dropped his engine back
harder than was expected, catching STEINER between the bumpers. He was 35
years old, and leaves a wife and child.

The body of James WENZEL, of Allegheny, was found hanging to a tree in
Seminary Grove, Glenwood. Life had been extinct for hours. The man had
stood on a chair, and after adjusting the rope, kicked the chair from under
and the rope strangled him. WENZEL had been missing from home for several
days. The _____'s friends say that he had been acting queerly for some
time, and had been a frequent visitor to Hazelwood. He formerly lived
within a short distance of where the act was committed. Being out of work
is the supposed cause of the suicide.

Patrick BROGAN of McKeesport was found by the police lying along the B. & O.
railroad tracks near Demmler, early Saturday morning. BROGAN had been
spending the evening at Braddock.

A Frenchman named John CASE , said to be formerly from Willow Grove, was
drowned at Fayette City on Sunday last.

Miss Lizzie REED, a sister of Samuel REED, of this place, died at
Washington on the 7th inst.
