FATAL ACCIDENT AT FRANKSTOWN.

  On Friday last James Wiser, a youth aged about 17 years, whose 
parents reside at or near Spruce Creek, was so unfortunate as to have 
his left though crushed between two ore dumps on the tram road between 
the ore mines and Frankstown.  The injured lad lived until Monday 
morning, when death ended his sufferings.  He had only been employed by 
the Blair Iron & Coal Company a few days previous.  His remains were 
sent to Spruce Creek yesterday.
