Irk and New York railroad after he had
saved the lives of his three childrcn. The
accident oc:urrcd near the Wr -T iii-men
station of the railroad in the suburbs of
Jersey City. Mr. l'urquhar, who had been
spending thodny with his childrcn crab-
bing In the ilackcnsack river, was instant-
ly killed and mangled beyond recognition.
The children were thrown down an em-
banknn-nt by the father and escaped with
several small bruises each. After the last
one~a little girl, 0} years old had been
placed out of danger he attempted to es—
cape, but was too late. The con watcher of
of the locomotive struck him and threw
him up in the air. lie W’s dead before the
train could be stopped.

A Bright Home I‘D‘sull‘t.

Mr. I‘Vnrqulmr lived it: b He wife and
& cottage at
No. 15 Yah- avenue, Jen-.- .‘ City. He was
employed as Ill‘llll packer iii the dry goods
store of Sweets”, l’cmbrmk & (‘o., at No.
375 Broadway. New York. .-\ vacation had
been given him by the lu'tpnwcelt ago,
and since thcn he has spent a great deal of
time on the river with Ills‘ wife and little
girls. During the warm weather he would
either take them rrnbbing or Ming, com-

ing lionn- late in the afternoon.

Mr. Furipihnr landed on the side of the
river opposite his cottage. To reach the
cottage be mm ('mnpvllctl in Pros,» the New.
ark and New York railroad bridge. which
spans the l’l"('l‘ at that point. He took the
children out of the boat, and the party in
a jolly mood untried over the bridge. The
‘Vl‘at llcrgcu ~i~lc of the- strui turc had
been safely run l.c-l. and Mr. l-'.it'ipili.ir was
about to loan- Il.l' trail.” and go down on
the sidewalk whiu tla [min for Newark

It “In in Fatal I'uuse.

The children stopped to limk at the
train. and so engrossed were thcy tlfht the
express train from New York approaching
on the other truck was not noticed. The
noise made by the other train drowned the
sound of the approaching engine's whistle,
and Mr. l‘amuhnr did not see it until it
was within fifteen yards of where the party
stood.

.\t the point when: the bridge begins the
embankment slopes down about twelve
feet to the lcvcl around. There was only
one chance to save his children from in
stunt death. and even that was a small and
desperate um- 'l'iii~ only chance was to
throw the cliihlri-n do“ n the embankment.
They might suxtaiu thc fracturi- of a limb,
but that could not tin-u be bclpcd.

Illo Ich- for His Children.

Throwing away the basket of crabs he
leupx-d forward and wired the urn young-
est childrcn, who stood rooted to the spot
“itb fright. Ilt‘ pitched them over the
e-mbankmcut and they rollcddown in safe
