BEVERIDGE'S:TRIP.

His In veatlgatlon of Conditions Around the Globe Will Be of Great Value to the Country.

William E. Curtis, the correspondent of the Chicago Record-Herald, writes from St. Petersburg. Russia, concerning Senator Beveridge's trip around the world. The following is an extract from his letter: "Senator Beveridge of Indiana spent several weeks in Russia this summer educating himself concerning the affairs and conditions of this great empire. He investigated the financial and industrial situation, both by inquiry and observation informed himself about the sentiments of the people and the disposition of the government. He saw the poor and the rich talked with the ministers of state, the mechanics in the factories and the peasants in the fields, and with the energy and penetration of an Indiana lawyer learned more during the brief time he was in Russia than he could have acquired in years from books. Then he started on the grand tour through the empire and across Siberia to Peking. He passed through a region which sooner or later will have a peculiar interest for the United States, because its climate, soil and production are similar to those of our own prairies, and it is being developed by the construction of railways and the location of colonies in a rapid and thorough manner. "Before many years Siberian wheat and corn and other agricultural pro ducts will meet those of the United

States in the markets of England, Ger many and other parts of the world which now depend upon us for food. There is no immediate danger in competition, because the area under culti vation at present is comparatively small, and the entire product is consumed within the limits of the Russian empire, but every additional acre that is plowed brings Siberia closer to the United States and the problem nearer to our people. Hence Senator Bever idge was wise and prudent in making this investigation, and it would be well if all his colleagues, the members of both houses of congress, would imitate his example and follow his footsteps. "I hear that Senator Beveridge in tends to write a series of newspaper articles concerning what he has seen and heard, and put them into a book afterward, which will be of great val ue, and the next best thing for his col leagues to going themselves. Mr. Beveridge is a good reporter. He has the faculty of observation and of picking i-ng out the essentials and rejecting what is of no consequence. It would be a good thing for the government to print his book and circulate it free among the people. "It. was Burton Holmes of Chicago who took the kinetoscope pictures while Beveridge was talking with To! stoi, the great Russian novelist, and he will show them in his lectures on Rus sia next winter. Mr. Holmes accom panied Senator Beveridge in his Siber ian journey and took his picture factory along. A good deal of fun has been made in the American papers about Beveridge's interview with Tolstoi, and it was certainly an event in the history of both gentlemen. I do not believe two such men ever met in the world before."

Calvin Gibson and Son, William, Meet Horrible Deaths—Another Man Also Badly Hurt.

As a result of a cave-in at his gravel pit, three miles east of Jamestown Monday at 1 :,'10 p. m., Calvin Gibson and his son, William, are dead, and Mr. Gibson's son-in-law, Ed Bailey, is badly injured. The three mon, with John French were hauling gravel from the pit when suddenly a large portion of the bank caved in, entombing the older Gibson. The three men at once started to dig him out when a second slide occurred which engulfed them all. French was not caught tightly, however, and at once started in search of help which ho at once secured. The second slide had so deeply covered father and son thai when they were reached by the rescuers both were dead and had been terribly crushed. Bailey was badly crushed but was taken out alive, though it is hardly expected that he will recover. The elder Gibson was found buried at a depth of four feet and young Gibson was in about two and onehalf feet.

Lllburn Allen Makes an {Unprovoked Attack on Marshal Jacob Fisher and Badly Wounds Him With :'$W$ a Klllfe.

Lilburn Allen, of Linden, who was Monday fined in this city for intoxication and carrying concealed weapons, went back home in the evening and tried to get a quarrel out of Jacob Fisher, the new marshal of Linden, accusing him of being the cause of his arrest, and following him several quares. Fisher told

Marshal Fisher came down Tuesday afternoon and swore out an affidavit against Allenjand the later will be given his preliminary hearing in a day or so.

BURIED ALIVE. GOLDEN WEDDING.

Allen several

times to go«home and finally stopped and told him again. Allen then struck at Fisher, who drew his mace and began defending himself. Allen drew a big'pocket knife and cut Fisher severely in the left breast, arm and thigh. He then ran away while the wounded marshal was being cared for. The authorities at Linden at once telephoned for the sheriff, but Mr. McCullough and his deputy had gone down near Ladoga on business. Accordingly Turnkey Phelps and Offioer

Abner Jones, of the city police force drove to Linden, leaving this city about 9:30. They had a great chase after Allen, finally landing him after a two mile run, and brought him back to this city and put him in jail.

Crawfordsvllle's Lost Boy. A picture of Howard Scott Maxwell, the son of Frank Maxwell, who ran away from home several weeks ago, is being published in the city papers. The Indianapolis News says: "The police authorities in this city, as well as in many other large cities, have been instructed to try to locate Howard Scott Maxwell, a fourteen-year-old boy, who left his home In, Crawfordsville, Ind., August 21. He was traced to East St. Louis and was last seen there August 23. Since that time no trace of him has been foundi He is of light complexion, blonde hair, and when he left he wore a checked suit and knee trousers. He was not a boy of bad habits and bis parents are unable to account for his mysterious disappearance in St. Louis. They say he was a lover of horses and they think he may have fallen in with horsemen who are making the country fairs in the iplddle west."

The Excursion This Morning. The Ben-Hur excursion to Chicago Tuesday morning got off on time with a big crowd from this city. There were ten coaches and a baggage car and everybody had a seat. It was a representative Crawfordsville crowd and a nicer looking lot of people never boarded a train anywhere. Ben-Hur badges were much in evidence and along the cars were banners to the effect that the train contained the "Tribe of Ben-Hur from Crawfordsville on their way to Chicago to witness the drama of Ben-Hur." The accident Insurance agents did a land office business before the train pulled out.

A Merry Party.

Last Friday, Oct. 4, a party from Ladoga consisting of twelve persons drove to Darlington and spent the day with Llev. A, S. Buchanan's family. They went prepared for the occasion by filling several baskets, and indeed these were so full that a supply of boxes and paper bags had to bo brought in to bring the overflow. The party arrived at half past ten. Until noon everybody was telling something at the same time, which to a stranger might have seemed confusing. But atjthathour while dinner w&9 being served quiet was successfully restored, with] about "sixteen exceptions, and the fun went merrily on. Some handsome views wore 'secured with the camera and inamed as follows: "The Prepared Table," "The Game,'' "The crowd," and "Mrs. A.M.Scott Kicking Goal With the Foot Ball." This last was a snap'shot taken during a hotly contested gams of "Kick for Goal," in which the ladies successfully participated. When] the hour came for return, invitations extended and good-byes said, the party]whirled away over the hills, past stone fences, wire and hedge until, lost to view in the clouds of dust.

A. M. Scott, Mrs. Chas. Goodbar, Mrs. Harry Daugherty and' son »Carl, Mrs. John Henry and -son Donald, and Mrs. J. N. Foster. The day was a joyful one to the hosts who are'lstill feasting upon the donation left. X.
