CAt'SHI) IIV A FATA I. MISTAKK. ASPKN, Col., .Inly l:I. Ity a wreck CM the Colorado Midland near here Suturda.y night at 11 o'clock siv»n lives ha.ru been lost and mtuiy people seriously injured. Aspen Junction WIIS the scene of the disaster. A collision occurred between a Midland locomotive and the couches of the Saturday "Laundry" or excursion train running' between Aspen and til en wood Springs. The coach-load of people returning in happy spirits from the springs, where a few pleasant hours hud been spent in the swimming pool, were suddenly plunged in the horrors of a frightful railroad accident, which resulted in the killing of seven people and severely scalding and burning six others. Of the twenty-five passengers three colored mon, who were in the forward compartment, were the only ones not injured. A 2-year-old _ehild of Mr. and Mrs. Frank E. Ellis, of Aspen, was killed intantly. Miss Annie l'helan, of Cardiff, died soon after she was taken out The other dead are Mrs. Frank Ellis, Mrs. J. C. C. Baldwin, Mrs. W. L. \Vlllougliby and Mr. and Mrs. A. 11. Rogers. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Leonard, Mr. Frank KUis. Thomas O'Donnell. Miss Mary O'Donnell and James Leach, all of Aspen, were scalded and burned.

Mrs. Baldwin and Mrs. Willoughby were the most frightfully burned. The latter hogged piteously to be kept nllve, if possible, nntil her husband could reach her. Of those still living only one. Miss Mary O'Donnell, is considered as dangerously burned, and hopes are entertained of her ultimate recovery, although the inhaling of tho scalding steam may result more seriously than at present anticipated.

Conductor Miller had received his orders to pull out for Aspen, and stepped on tli coach to give the engineer his orders. At about the sumo time Engineer Shepherd had received orders to take his engine and pull west with a freight train standing in the yard and had gone to the roundhouse. The switchmen noticed both engine and passenger train hacking down and signaled to stop. Shepherd stopped his engine and Brnkoman Ryan was on the rear nf the passenger train, turned on the hot air and stopped the train. The switchman then signaled to Shepherd to back down, with which he at once complied. The engineer of the passenger understco-.l the signal to be for him und accordingly begun backing down, Itralceman Ryan liavjng released the air beeuu.se he also understood the signal to be for his trnin Rotli the freight engine and the passenger engine must have started rather vigorously, as the crash came before the frantic signals of tlie switchman to stop could be seen and understood. The passenger engineer says he could not see the freight engine backing out of the round-house, as the coal-chute and other buildings obstructed his view. The engineer on the freight engine was likewise, he claims, in ignorance of the {pet that the passenger was backing down. The trainmen unite in saj-ing that the accident was the result of a misunderstanding of the signals given by the switehman.

While the injured people were at Aspen Junction the person of Mrs. A. H. Rogers was robbed of a gold watch and chain and also SI-0 in money. There were also other robberies reported, but not authenticated. With a warrant sworn out by A. A. Kophatn before Judge Prentiss, Marshal Andy Sutton went to Aspen Junction and arrested J. 0. lvnlin, a cook at the railroad eating house, charging him with the robbery. Marshal Sutton now has the prisoner in the county jail.

MANY KII.I.KP IN A LANDSLIDE:. TACOMA, Wash., July 13.—About 0 O'olock a. m., July 7, those working and living near the North Pacific cannery at Skeena River. Wash., heard a great rushing noise in the direction of the high, steep mountain at tho back of the cannery. In a moment an avalanche of rocks and earth and trees was upon the doomed settlement, carrying away everything close to the cannery. The occupants of the houses hod time to get outside of the buildings, but, before they could escape from the advancing torrent of debris, were caught and carried along at a fearful velocity. In all nine houses, with their occupants, were destroyed, including the mcss-liouse atul residence of the foreman of the cannery. In the messroom at the time of the catastrophe was the young wife of the foreman. She was carried along aud dashed to death. The Indians claim that oniong those destroyed were about forty Indians of the Post. Sampson, Sitka, MetluUatluli and Kiliinat tribes. The bodies of thirteen of the Indians have been recovered and taken to l'ost Kssington for burial. The body of the foreman's wife has not been recovered, but there was not the slightest hope for any living thing within the range of the terrible slide of bowlders, rocks, trees and earth.

It seemed as if all the bottom of the boat was suddenly lifted up and blown Into the air. Every person on board was hurled into the water. He sank with the rest. When he came to the surfece he saw nothing but wreckage. There was not a body in sight He swam to a buoy and clung there until rescued.

Dr. Barrows, of the First Presbyterian church of Chicago, announoed that the next international convention would be held in Madison square garden, New York, in 1802, and in Montreal in 1893, the date to be decided upon and announced later.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., July 13.—The third day of the great international convention of Christian Endeavor was inaugurated at 6:30 o'61ock Saturday morning with a prayer meeting conducted by Miss Grace Livingston, of Winter Park, Flo. At 9 o'clock the delegates met in regular business session, and after the usual roligious exercises reports from the worldwide field were made by General Secretary Baer. He gave some Interesting details of the growth of the movement In England and presented particularly encouraging figures from Japan. On February the Christian Endeavor societies in that country celebrated their decennial anniversary of the first society. The native ohurches are UIBO organizing the young people into Christian Endeavor societies. The growth of the movomont In Australian colonies was also dwelt upon.

After a prayer service, conducted by Rev. W. li. McClain, of St Louis, t&erc was a symposium of pastors, the different denominations represented by the speakers developing tho widespread interest in tho movement and the fraternal good fellowship that is manifested. The morning session closed with a short address by Rev. Dr. A. A. Fullor, of Canton, China, upon the "Society for All the World." In the afternoon the delegates enjoyed an outing at Lake Minnetonka.

At night Rev. William Potterson, of Toronto, delivered an address on .!'lnternational Fellowship."

Resolutions were adopted complimenting the twin cities for their hospitality recommending tlint all societies adopt the "Revised" Pledge" promising support to the church, and welcoming to fellowship all denominationl societies which adopt the Christian Endeavor pledge. Banners were presented to the different unions.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., July 18.—Sunday many of the Christian Endeavor delegates wore in the Twin City pulpits both morning and afternoou. but full sessions of the convention were Kcld, the only recess being to allow the delegates to go to churoh in the morning. Before that time 5,000 delegates and others were in their seats in the auditorium to hear President William R. Hnrpor, of the Chicago university, give an interesting Bible study, with applications, on "Ninevah's Fall the Prophecy of Nahum." The short session closed with a fifteen-minute prayer service, led by Rev. B. B. Tyler, of New York city. One of the finest audiences of the convention gathered in the auditorium in the afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Prof. Lindsey led in some grand chorus singing. Rev. H. C. Farrar, D.

Leitch, from the Jaffna mission, Coylon, India, who spoke upon »"The Young Woman at Work." She appealed strongly for more mission workers, believing 20,000 missionaries were needed within five years if the heathen of this generation were to hear the Gospel, and asking for 10,000 from the Christian Endeavor to be sent through their various church mission boards. John (}. Wooley, of Boston, delivered an address on "Gospel Temperance." Ho said he believed in Gospel temperance in the ballot box, and as he said it an Iowa delegate stepped to the front waving a banner,one side of which read: "Des Moines, the largest city in the world without a saloon," and the other, "Iowa's glory, a schoolhousc on every hilltop and no.saloon in the valley." From floor to gallery a storm of applause swept over the immense gathering, continuing for a couple of minutes. He closed by saj'ing he believed in no temperance except Gospel temperance.

It was stated from the platform that the attendance of delegates was 14,000 jnd the session closed by singing the doxology.

At the evening session resolutions opposing the opening of the Columbian exposition on Sunday and denouncing the "whisky ring's" influence in politics were unanimously adopted. President Clark was reelected and a long list of honorary vice presidents representing every state, territory and province. Bishop M. N. Gilbert, of Minnesota, of the Protestant Episcopal church, delivered an address on the nocd. strength and growth of the Endeavor movement, which he thought an indication of a rapidly approaching millennium.

The consecration service began with fifty or more personal testimonies, and then Indiana, Ohio, Minnesota and others in response to calls from the chairman renewed their consecration in songs or in repeated verses of scripture. A song by Mr. Sunkey and singing by the congregation closed tb« tenth annual convention.

FIRRCE FIRES.

ST. IONACE, Mich., July 18.—One ol the moat destructive forest fires which have ever swept tho northern peninsula is raging between Marquetto and this city along the line of tho Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic railroad. For hundrods of miles nothing can be seen but one mass of (lames, and tho density of the smoke is so pronounced that the sun appears like a leaden ball. Railroad officials have large crowds of men stationed along the track, battling against the fir«, but the flames are quickly gaining headway. It is feared the track will bo destroyed. In many plaoes between Newberry and Seny tho small bridges crossing little creeks are now burning. At several of these places the train was compelled to stop in order to extinguish the fires. The telegraph poles have been burned down and the wires rendered useless. The general loss will aggregate thousands. Inhabitants of small villages have been fighting against the fire for the last four days and are now almost exhausted. They have called for aid from the officials of the road. It is feared that peven loggers along the banks of the Tahquamanon and Fox rivers have lost their lives.

He looked happy and contented. "1 am not dying, nor do I anticipate anything serloua. I am nervously ill,' but I have no die.ease. My head Is rather troublesome, bl)t the doctors aay It In due to overwork at Washington, where I .pent too many hours ol my ityn In work. My eyonlKlit Is not falling. Neither am I troubled with deafnens, as has been reported. 1 am near sighted, hut hava always been no. My heurlng la extra good."

Mrs. Blaine said: "I have great falih In Dar Harbor air ae a sure cure tor Mr. Blaine. He secma lo revive In this bracing atmosphere and grows stronger every day. When he first came he was per haps a trifle weak and exhausted, but now be drives out every day. Mis (cct arc rather tender, so bo does not walk very muoh, but otherwise his health would allow him to take even that fatiguing exercise. He Is rather thin from his bad turns, but on his bread and milk diet I expect him to grow stout and fleshy.:'
