It was stated yesterday that eight or ten carpenters had arrived in Oakland Wednes- day from Los Angeles to.be put at work by the Builders' Association, and that six of the number have been taken into camp by the union. They claim that they were induced to come to Oakland upon false rep- resentations. Their names are T. J. Chun- pel, J. F. Lenhart, Albert _.eal, W. J. Sioughton, A. L. McDonald and another who would not give his name, They state that au advertisement was published in one of the Los Angeles papers by an employ- ment agent there, representing that they could receive employment at Oakland ut 40 cents an hour, and assuring them that thero would be no trouble with the union. It as arranged, they allege, that tney should have their fare advanced upon making a promis- sory note to William Winnie of Oakland for Sir! for fare and S4 for the agent's commis- sion. They say that they expected to beset at work at once, but that Winnie told theni they would have to skirmish and find out who wanted men. When they learned the truo state of affairs in regard to the strike they refused to be used against the union, which will stand by them and see that they nre taken care of, and that the notes for fare advanced are taken up.

A horrible accident occurred at the Union Iron Works about G o'clock last evening, and will probably end in the death of tho victim. Frank Bradley, who had charge of the donkey-engine employed on the new cruiser Monterey, was about to leave work. The hull of the cruiser is surrounded by a framework of scaffolding, and Bradley was at work on the hoisting crane. The whistles were just sounding to quit work— that notice so grateful to the ears of all work- men—and Bradley stepped from his engine to the crane-walk, a plank about a foot wide, and forty feet above the ground. In making the one step the unfortunate man lost his balance and went downward with , fearful velocity, striking on the ground below, As he fell he uttered a piercing shriek, which drew the attention of all the workmen to his dreadful fall. They saw him hurled downward and strike the ground, and it was generally supposed that he was dead, as he laid motionless. The Coroner's office was telephoned to and Deputy Mogner went after the body. When the Union Iron Works was reached Bradley gave signs of life, and lie was con- veyed in a wagon to St. Mary's Hospital. An examination was made of his injuries and it was found that he was in a terrible condition. A fracture was discovered at the base of the skull, bis thigh is broken, there are number of severe facial cuts, the head is lacerated in four places and over his body arc many cuts and abrasions made by strik- ing the hard ground after his fearful fall. Little hope is entertained of his recovery and his death was expected before morning. Bradley is 21 years of age and has been 111 this country a little over a year. 11. has been working as an engineer aud machinist at the Union lion works for about a year and has a sister and widowed mother iv eland, whom he has supported cut of his earnings. While in this cily he has been stoppiug with Mrs. Prints at 13 Cleveland street. A singular fact connected with Bradley s misfortune is that about two months ago a cousin of his named Hall fell from the same place and was killed. . • . BIiWEDDED API-SB 17 YEAIiS. A Georgia I'r.ifi-sor's Second Wooing of th. Bride Whom He l>.*9.*rt- <i. Jesse Herndon about twenty-two years ago came to Mississippi from La Grange, (la., was elected .'resident of Liberty High School, Amite County, and while there won the respect and esteem of the whole com- munity. After teachiug two terms he re- signed this position and assumed control of the school at Union Church, Jefferson County. Among the people of this small village was a Mr. Cato, who was the happy father of a beautiful daughter. Between the young professor and this handsome brunette an intimacy soou sprang up which ripened into love. In due time they were married. Tor two years their married life was a continued round of joyous con- tentment, but soon to end. A letter did the work, lt was from a woman claiming to be the who of Herndon, from whom be was not divorced. To the grief and morti- fication of the wife of two years, Herndon admitted everything, but pleaded his great love for her as an excuse for his sin. Feel- ing that it was impossible for him to main- tain his former position in the confidence of tbe people of Union Church, the facts relating to his first marriage having all been made public, the miserable husband carried his wife and babe to her father's home, aud soon afterward left Mississippi to lead a varied and sometimes reckless life. For several years he taught school in Alabama and Missouri, and for a while represented some prominent mercantile firms as traveling agent. A few months since he succeed, d in get- ting a divorce from his first wife in Georgia, nnd immediately wrote to parties in Ila/le- hurst concerning the whereabouts of his second wife. On receiving information that she lived in Uazelhurstaud had never mar- ried, he at once determined to visit her. On reaching Ilazellnirst he inquired the way to her home and turned his steps thither. The wife of seventeen years ago, who had not seen or heard from him during the whole lime, saw him as he was approaching. Turning to her daughter, a bright girl of 17 summers, she exclaimed, " Yonder comes your father," and fainted. Alter a brief conversation with his wife and child he walked over to the Clerk's office, pro- cured a license and the services of the Bey. W. 0.

What is the best way to stop hemorrhages?, Doctor." If external, the best means is usually pressure either with the fingers or some kind of a bandage. Before binding \up' a ' wound it should be thoroughly washed; an astringent, as POND'S EXTRACT, should be used to . assist the con-traction of the blood- vessels, and the lips of the wound should be stitched if they gap widely. If the bleeding is internal POND'S EXTRACT can also be used to great advantage , bui in such cases it is wise to call a physician immediately. Pond's Extract is ALWAYS sold in bottles with BUFF wrap- per. Accept no substitute. Made only by Pond's Extract Co., Hew York and London. Beware of imitations. ...... * .."To----'.-::- --....Tr-.
