FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 10, 1897.

MONTGOMERY county farmers enjoyed their harvest home festival on the fair grounds yesterday.

IT is now two months since Andree disappeared and no reliable pigeon dispatch has been received from him.

Tin-: duty collected on the personal baggage of passengers returning from Europe during the month of August, in excess of 3100 each, amounted to 840,802.

MOHE than 22,000 farmers in the United States are now experimenting with the sugar beet. The Department of Agriculture sent out seven tons of seed into twenty-seven States last season.

A YEAH ago Mr. Bryan's heart bled for the farmer, who could not get a living price for his wheat. Now it bleeds for the consumer, who has to pay the increased price to the farmer. Then the low price of wheat was an evil. Now the high price is the cause of hardship.

THE Secretary of Agriculture has just returned to Washington from a trip through the West, and reports that the only dismal people he saw were the pessimist, whose stomach was out of order, and the politician, whose nose was out of joint. The latter felt badly because his calamity capital is being taken from him.

L'KOPI.E who are assuming that the recent great gold developments arc a mere matter of good luck to those opposing the 16 to 1 theory are mistaken. It is more than luck it is the logic of events. The fact that the world prefers gold to the bulky white metal as its medium of exchange has stimulated the production of gold everywhere until it seems likely to supply the needs of the world for a money metal.

FOR the first time in seven years, it is said, the demand for labor is greater than the supply in many parts of Alabama, and, as a result, there is not a strike or labor dispute of any kind in the State. Increased demands for Alabama iron in Europe are pressing the furnace to fill orders. Coal mines and furnace operators are advertising for labor to meet the requirements of the situation and labor agentB are being placed in the field.

CONSUL GEXKKAL JOSEPH (J. DUDI.BY, stationed at Nuevo Laredo, in a communication to the Department of State says that as a result of the recent fall in the price of silver there has been a marked rise in the price of all coramodities in Mexico. This is true of domestic products. Rents are included in the rise of prices. He says there has been no corresponding advance of wages or salaries. Labor, he states, stays on its silver basis.

NOTWITHSTANDING the heat, and dust, and dry weather, the fair has a good attendance. The crowd is composed of the bone and sinew of the country, the men who work with their arms and not with their jaws, the men who toil and build while would-be leaders froth at the mouth and imagine they are tearing down, and brighteyed wives and sweet-hearts light up the day and the occasion with beauty, and kindly skies are smiling over all.

"MINING experts of undoubted competence," says the New York Tribune, "have estimated the gold in the Johannesburg reefs to exceed 5,000,000,000, and say that the coining century will see it all turned into the world's circulation. Seventy millions is the highest figure yet placed on the Ivlonkike deposits so far discovered and located. There are no doubt a good many more of them, but if the territory were to turn out as much of the precious metel as California did in the years following its discovery there it would still play the smallest kind of second fiddle to South Africa, which, in its breast of bounty, holdB the world's mother lode, enriching Solomon and liiram of Tyre, as it now enriches the current generations of men and monarchs. Africa bore the first blossom of the world's civilization, and if it is to bear the latest and brightest it need not be without a golden flower pot to set it in."

BRYAN, Altgeld and the whole Popocratic tribe have a good deal to say these days about "government by injunction." This was the burden of Bryan's speech at St. Louis and of Altgeld's at Philadelphia on Labor Day. They asserted that injunctions are sought by employers to' prevent employes forming unions for co operation. When they uttered those assertions they knew them to be untrue. Not a single instance in the whole history of the labor disturbances of 1894 or 1897 can be cited in which an employer has obtained an injunction to prevent the formation of labor societies, or to stop any other sort of legitimate combination among employes. No injunction for any such purpose has ever been asked by any one. No judge of any court, Slate or Federal, in the United States «ou'd grant an injunction on any such plea. Injunctions have been granted to prevent workmen who wanted to work from being maltreated or intimidated, to protect the persons or property of employers that were in danger, and to prevent strikers and agitators from committing crime for which they would be punished. For these reasons, and only for these, as they are well aware, have injunctions been issued.

A Tribute.

Lawson 15., son of Howard and Pearl Vaughn, was born March 27, 1807, and died Sept. 5, 1897, age five months and nine days. Little Lawson, the only child of a devoted father and mother, was taken sick on Thursday evening and died Sunday evening. His sickness was short but during that time the little babe suffered death many times. His death came upon us as a keen clap of thunder from a clear sky. Little Lawson was a sweet child possessed of a teinperment for pleasantness unsurpassed and no doubt thrilled the loving parents' heart with unspeakable joy when they would ".ook into the little face always wore a smile. A bright llower has been taken from them, a treasure that nothing of this earth can restore. For anyone to know little Lawson waB to love him. It is sad for the loving parents to give up their loving babe, yet they should remember that the loss to us is a gain to God. It will strenghen the loving parents and the rest of us as well, to reflect on what heaven will be when adorned with such precious jewels as little Lawson. It will inspire us to make our lives "more of a reality in order that we may enjoy a home bedecked with the most precious and loving things that God has given mankind. We should realise that the bitterer the cup we taste on this earth the sweeter the cup will be in the "sweet bye and bye." In the measureless realm of time how short is our earthly life, yet how momentous and eternal its issues. Life's experiences of happiness and sorrow, coming thick and fast, are the soul's appointed means of growth. To-day we build our castles, to-morrow fickle fortune snatches from hope the promised joy. To-day the presence of loved ones fills our cup with joy to-morrow sore bereavement casts us into the valley of sorrow. Then we should brace up and make this life the best we can and the heartaches we have here will be more than a thousand times counterbalanced when we shall clasp the Land and take to our fond embrace the loved ones beyond the "valley of death." It being the largest crowd that has attended an infant funeral at Liberty we hope that the bereaved parents will take it as evidence that the people share with you in your sore bereavement. Since 'twas Gcd's lioly will for your loved one to die,

While innocent us innocent could be, You can re fleet on the days of the sweet bye and bye.

When your loved one again you can see.

'Twill lie sad when you think of the tender blue eyes That once could look up in your face. Hut remember, dear parents, that the soul never dies,

Hut is secure in tlio Saviour's embrace.

The voice that once lilled your heart Willi deliglil. Is stilled by the call of our God: Yet 'twill speak to you like anangel at night,

While its body rests under the sod.

Your loved one's body Is put to rest in tho grave, As will »orne day be yours and initio. It is watched by him who is able to save,

And secured by a power divine. VV. V. STANKIEI.D.

The parents wish to tender their sincere thanks to their neighbors ana friends for the kindness they bestowed upon them during the sickness of their little babe.

A NEW INSTRUCTION CAR.

The ltlR Four's Model for Instruction Its Kinployes in Charge ol Will lliirtmaii.

The C. C. C. & St. L. air instruction car No. 1000 has just been completed at the Brightwood shops, receiving now models of some of the latest machinery that company is adopting. On Saturday it will be stationed in the sleeping car yards on Capitol avenue, Indianapolis, one block west of the Union station, to be inspected by the general officers, after which it will be coupled on to train No. ii. to go over the Peoria & Eastern, for the purpose of instructing and examining the employes. The car was specially built for the instruction of train crews on the road. It is fitted with a complete full size train equipment, such as the air brake, tho steam heating apparatus and lighting equipment. The car is fifty-four feet long on the inside, and is finished in ash and walnut. It is divided into two apartments, one of which is carpeted and used as an ollice and reception room. This is furnished with chairs, a desk, one lower and one upper berth, the former being of a portable lounge pattern, and there is also a warorobe and toilet. The other and larger compartment forms the lecture room, which contains the Westinghouse and American air brake appliances, full 6ize. In the oilice is a complete air brake equipment of two locomotives (one eight wheeler and one ten wheeler), and also complete driver brake models, driven by a small motor and made to operate in conjunction with the other appliances. Then, in their order down the side of the car are one passenger car aad six freight car equipments, complete, with all pipe fittings and hose cock in their regular positions, the same as upon a train of the same length. To compensate for the shorter pipes the full brake volume on each car is represented by small reservoirs, which are placed out of sight. At the opposite end of ihe car from the oilice is an upright boiler and a coal bunker. In a large case are six blackboards, each containing working templates of all the air valves, pump valve motion, Hodge & Stevens' brake foundation gears, etc., which are used in the elementary lessons and referred to in explaining mechanical eilectB. The plan of operating the car is to have it go from one division point to another. The car is in charge of W. J. Hartman, who for six years traveled for the Westinghouse Company as instructor and expert, and previously waB instructor of engine and boiler management at the Rose Polytechnic Institute, Terre Haute,

DISASTROUS WRECK

Passenger Trains Collide Near

Emporia, Kan.

W. J.BRYAN ON BOARD THE TRAIN

Late Candidate For tlio Presidency Did Noble Work In tho Crowd ol Kescuers. lloitcrs of tho Ku^ines Kxploded Immediately After tho Cru»h—Curs llocome Ignited.

EMJ'OKIA, Kan,, Sept. 0.—One of tho worst wrecks in the history of the Santa Fe railroiid occurred throe miles cast of here at about 7:!50 o'clock last night. Twelve or 15 persons -were killed and as many more wore badly hurt. The fast mail train, going east, and the Mexico and California express, westbound, collided lieud on. The Mexico and California express was pulled by two locomotives, and when they struck the engine drawing the fast mail the boilers of all three engines exploded and toro a liolo in the ground so deep that tho smoking car of tho westbound train went in on top of the three engines and two mail ears and balanced theie without, turning over. The passengers in the smoking car escaped through the windows. The front end of this ear was enveloped in a volume of stifling smoke and steam belching up from tho wreck below, and the rear door was jammed tight in the wreck of the ear behind. The wreck caught lire from the engines. The cars in the hole and the smoking car burned to ashes in no time. In climbing out of the smoiving ear several men fell through the rifts in the wreck below and it is impossible to tell whether the3T escaped or were burned to death.

The westbound tram carried seven or eight coaches, and its passengers included many excursionists who had been to hear lion. W. J. Bryan at the county fair at Burlingatne. Mr. Bryan himself was on the train, but was riding in the rear Pullman, some -100 feet from tho cars which were wrecked, lie states that nothing but a heavy jolt was experienced by the passengers in his coach. 31 r. llrvaii a llero*

Mr. Bryan was one of the noblest men in the crowd of rescuers. He helped to carry out the dead and wounded and gave the greatest attention to their care. One poor fellow who was badly maimed called to Mr. Bryan and said: "I went to hear you today I am dying now, and want to shake your hand and say God bless you. If you possibly can Mr. Bryan, get me a drink of water." Mr. Bryan went into the fast mail car, one end ut which was burning, and came out with the drink of water, which he gave to tho sulfering passenger. He brought two cushions for others of the injured, and was everywhere present to minister to the wants of the sulfering.

Met on a Might Curve.

The engineer of the westbound train had received orders to meet tho fast mail at Kmporia and were making up lost time. These two are tho fasteft trains in the Santa Fe system and tho westbound train must have been running at a speed of at least 40 miles an hour. The westbound express was going around a slight curve and met tho fast mail probably within 200 l'cet. Of the seven or (sight cars making up the Mexico and California express only the mail, baggage and express and smoking cars were destroyed. The coach following the smoker was badly splintered. There were not more than a dozen passengers on the fast mail, all in one coach, and while none of them was seriously injured, their shaking up was terrible. Every seat in tho coach was torn from ihe lloor and many floor planks came up with tho seats. One man, John Sweeney, was thrown over three seats and through a window, but escaped with only scratches and bruises. The other cars of tho fast mail, a baggage and an express car, were totally wrecked.

It is feared that nearly all the seven mail clerks perished in the disaster, but so far only six bodies have been taken from the wreck. The dead: .JIM HHKNXAN, engineer,'I'opeka.

Mike Sweeney, Gainesville, Tex., back hurt. Miscarriuge of Orders.

It is stated that the wreck was caused by a miscarriage of orders from the trainmaster. At Emporia the easibound last mail train received orders to pass the California express at Lang, seven miles east. Another order was sent to Lang for the Calilomia express to take the siding there, but this order was not delivered and the westbound rain passed on, the trainmen expecting to pass the fast mail at Emporia.

Continuous Shocks oi KarthquuUo. WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.—Consul Dart at Guadaloupe, in the West indies, reports to tho state department that continuous shocks of earthquake are being experienced there. He says that on Aug. 25 there were eight distinct sliockB. It is said to be a strango phenomenon, affecting no other part of the island.

LUETGERT MURDER TRIAL.

State Spring:* A Surprteo on tho Defefi*©* Prisoner^ Demeanor. CHICAGO, Sept. 9.—The defenso in the

trial of Adolph L. Luetgert for wife murder wero surprised by a move ol' tho state in tho trial yesterday. What is considered to be one of the strongest pieces of evidence in the trial was introduced. Mrs. Christine Foldt, Luetgert's one-time sweetheart, was called to tho stand by the state for the third time. Assistant State's Attorney McEwen handed her an ugly appearing pocketknife, the blades of which wero stained and rusted, and asked her if she had ever seen it beforo. She testified that tlie big sausage manufacturer had given her this knife for safe keeping on tho day of his arrest. The prosecution asserts that it was with this knife Luetgert murdered his wife before placing her body in the boiling potash, where it was dissolved.

The ugly looking object was passed around for the inspection of the attorneys and was handed to Luetgert, who opened and closed the blades, gazing curiously at the weapon and scraping the blade with his linger as if to feel tho stains. He evidenced no emotion, though he knew that every person.in the courtroom, including court, jury and spectators, was closely watching and taking note of his every action. In talking with his attorneys'lie admitted the knife was his property. The greater part of the day was taken up in dry expert testimony.

The attorneys for tho defense assert that the day has done their cause good. They expect to controvert the material points in the testimony and ignore inany points which they consider to bo irrelevant to tho issue. Luetgert's unconcerned demeanor continues and tho most- damaging evidence seems to all'eet him but little.

RESULT OF A FEUD.

Alleged Wliiteeapper Placed In .Tilil. Warriuils Out For

OIIHTS.

RICHMOND. Ky., Sept. !).—John Isaac, alleged to be one of the whitecaps who so brutally beat Charles Murray and tho Clemonses in Froman's Hollow, has been placed in jail here, and warrants aro out lor others of tho gang, who wore recognized by their victims. Tho trou ole is said to be the outgrowth of tho killing of Lafayette Powell by W. H. Moody at Big Hill a year ago.

Murry and the Clemonses were among Moody's principal witnesses, and it was upon their evidence that Moody was given a very light sentence. Threats were made against tliein at the time of the trial, and this rough treatment a few niirht-s ago is said to have been at the hands of the Powell faction.

FIRED INTO COACHES.

Trumps Resent ISeinj Injected From a Passenger Train. LIMA, O., Sept. 9.—As westbound passenger train No. 3 on tho Chicago and Erie road was pulling out of the depot here a gang of tramps boarded it. Tho trainmen ejected tliein several times while the train was in motion, and the tramps ran along tho sido of the train, firing into the passenger coaches as they passed. No one was wounded.
