GREENSBURG GETS IT. Next Meeting of -Christian Endeavor Goes to Decatur’s Capital. THE PRESENT BIG MEETING. Clever Knie by Which Charles Marvin , Causes Surrender of Parents Who Ob- ' Jected to a Marriage and Made Hl* Wife Prisoner—Singular Case of Sulaide—Other State News. Indianapolis, Oct. 13.—The active, enthusiastic young Christian workers, designated as the society of Christian Endeavor, continue to have glorious meetings for the cause of Christ, and in various assemblages are inspiring renewed interest in the work. The state has never before had such a meeting as the present one, either in point of numbers or enthusiasm, and great good is expected to result. The opening praise service was held last night in Tomlinson hall, which was crowded to its full capacity. One of the novelties of the occasion was a phonographic address by Rev. T. E. Clark, founder and president of the society, who was unable to attend the state meeting. The friendly though lively rivalry which has existed between Muncie, Greensburg and Evansville for selection as the place of meeting next year ended last night in the selection of Greensburg. Tomorrow the society will conduct services in most of the city churches. MARVIN’S CAPERS. He Retaliate* In Kind Against Those Who Imprison Hl* Wife. Logansport, Ind., Oct. 13.—Charles Marvin has caused a sensation in the community north of Idaville by the manner in which he won and kept his bride. For several years Marvin has courted Ida Rich, but their union was bitterly opposed by the girl’s parents. The young people eloped last Tuesday. Wednesday they returned to beg forgiveness, but the bride’s father locked her in the cellar and drove his son-in-law from the premises with a gun. All that night the bridegroom thought over plans of rescue and in the morning sent Ids mother-in-law word to come and get her daughter’s effects, as he was ready to relinquish all claims. When the old lady came Marviu locked her in his house and refused to let her return. She was held as a hostage until Mr. Rich came with a flag of truce and prisoners of war were exchanged. PECULIAR suicide. Little Grandson Innocently Aids the Death of a Paralytic Grandfather. Kokomo, Ind., Oct. 18.—Louis Marquis, au aged pioneer resident of this county, committed suicide under peculiar conditions, making his little grandson executioner. Marquis was a helpless paralytic, unable to move in his bed. A saucer of carbolic acid kept in the room to purify the atmosphere was given the old man at his request, which he swal- , lowed, the boy not knowing it was poison. Marquis died, two hours later. Had Money but Lived on Charity. Peru, Ind., Oct. 13.—Timothy Crawley, 83 years of age and an eccentric old soldier, was found dead in bed yesterday. While changing the clothes on . the body the undertaker found hidden . in pockets sacks containing gold and silver amounting to $1,000; also a certifl- ’ cate of deposit on the First National for ' $2,000.

Oklahoma by Mere Chanco-■ llnppy Denouement to a Sad Incident. Wichita, Kan., Oct. 15, —The clnsn of , i a strangely romantic story occurred here ; Saturday iu the reunion of Mrs. Martha 1 Farrell and her daughter. Lizzie, after a separation of seven years, during which time the two lost entire trace of each other. In 1887 Theodore Farrell, his wife Martha and their son and daughter, Timothy and Lizzie, started overland from Indiana to Spokane, Wash. One night wltile in camp near Beth, a small place some miles from Ogden, U. T., a storm Btani}XMled some of the horses, and in the morning Timothy fiM Lizzie, the latter at the time being 12 •tats old, mounted their ponies and went iik#earch of the runaways. The country was rough-wooded, and, in taking different trails, which they supposed would come together again a mile or two away, the brother and sister became separated. Failing to find his sister, Timothy returned to camp, and for days the family searched for the missing girl, but without avail. They then gave up the idea of going to Spokane and settled near Salt Lake. Last year they moved here, and last winter Theodore Farrell died. Saturday the long-lost Lizzie walked into her mother's home, accompanied by her brother Timothy, who had just brought her up from Oklahoma. How the Reunion Came About. When she and her brother parted seven years ago, during their search for the missing horses, Lizzie had got lost in the woods. She traveled all day and all night in a vain attempt to retrace her steps to the camp, and when morning came she found herself near a ranch occupied by a family named Russell, many miles from the Farrell camp, but only a short distance from the trail to Spokane. Expecting her family to pursue their journey westward, she awaited their coming; bnt, not seeing anything of them after some days, she and the Russells returned to the camp near Beth, only to find the family had left. All attempts to discover their whereabouts were unavailing, and Lizzie Farrell after a while went to Spokane, expecting to find her parents there. Here, too, she was disappointed. At Spokane she secured a position in a millinery store. When the Sac and Fox country in Oklahoma was thrown open last year she accompanied her employers there and the party settled at Burnett. Fri--1 day, by chance, Timothy Farrell, her ! brother, who lives near Burnett on a farm, walked into the millinery store. The brother and sister did not know each other, but from a chance mention of the name “Farrell” they soon discovered their relationship, and the reunion of the family here was the result. TRIBUTE TO HOLMES. New York Baptist Divine Pots Him In the Center of a Brilliant Galaxy. New York, Oct. 15.—A sermon on the life and character of Oliver Wendell Holmes was preached last night by Rev. Dr. Robert S. McArthur at the Calvary Baptist church. He said in part: “Never was there a more beautiful death than that of Oliver Wendell Holmes. He passed from earth to heaven as beautifully as the sun sets in an October day. Never was there a writer in America or Great Britain more honored or beloved. "Sidney Smith sneeringly asked: ‘Who reads an American book?’ While he was asking this question half a dozen Americans were preparing to write books which all the world should know. Among these men were Hawthorne, Longfellow, Emerson, Lowell and Whittier. Holmes was the center of this brilliant galaxy. There was no writer in the group who reached so lofty a position as Tennyson or Browning, but the average attained by American writers during the period is higher than that reached by British writers of the same time. One’s heart grows sad as 1 he thinks that the last of this group is gone. There was never before such an American school, and in the nature of the case there can never be such another American school. Not until we have some great political upheaval of nature’s cataclysm snail we again produce such a school of poets.” Rev. Dr. Collyer of the Church of the ; Messiah said in his sermon: “I feel some touch of anger because of the newspaper references to Dr. Holmes, ; in which he was described as a man of i limitations. Such remarks touching so grand a man are mistakes. Os all the men I have known, I think he is the last I of whom we could say ‘he was not this and he was not that.’ He was just Oliver Wendell Holmes, the good physician and the grand poet. He was himself, and a bit of the truest manhood we ‘ have known in this generation.” Go Back on the Race Course. i Chicago, Oct. 15.—The announce- • ment of the Washington Park club Sati urday night that it will hold no more i race meetings does not mean that there . will be no more racing on the track, but i simply that the Aub will not assume > control of the racing. The organization . has always been as much of a social as a i racing club and a few of the racing cotene were socially embarrassed by the indictment found against the club officials last summer on the ground that the . racetrack was a common nuisance.

WW TO HUMS. Rnns a tyain Into an Excursion and Then Takes to the Swamps. CASUALTY IN THS SOUTH. A Score of People Mutinied, ICacnpes From Death Being Miraculons—Northen«tern Train Bun Into a Loul’Villo and Nashville at a Cronßlttg Near New Orleans Lisi of Injured. New’ Orleans, Oct. 15.—Engineer ' Simpson of the East Louisiana railroad is respon .ible for a frightful accident that occurred yesterday morning at the crossing of the Louisville and Nashville and .the Northeastern roads, about two miles from whore tho Louisville and Nashville road loaves Elysian Fields street—an accident that will in all probability result in at least bne fatality, while a score of passengers on the Louisville and Nashville received severe injuries. The Louisville and Nashville “across the hike” excursion train, consisting of eight coaches well loaded with pleasure seekers, a large proportion being women and children, pulled out on time. As the train approached the crossing of the Northeastern tracks Engineer Hanley brought his train to a stop and whistled, as the Iftw requires. He then gave the signal to go ahead and proceeded across the tracks of the Northeastern. The East Louisiana train, carrying excursionists to points in Saint Tammany parish, was booming along its tracks, and with a shrill shriek from its whistle for “down brakes” it crashed into the sixth coach of the Louisville and Nashville train. The collision throw a crowded coach completely into the ditch, while the attacking engine was derailed and buried its nose several feet in the soft mud. Passengers on the East Louisiana train were uninjured except for the shock of collision. Not so with the coast excursion, however. Panic Among Excursionist*. Just before the iron monster struck the coach several of the passengers saw it coming and a panic ensued. There was a wild rush to escape from the doomed coach, but lie fore passengers could reach either platform the approaching engine had struck and the coach, with its living freight, was hurled from the tracks into the ditch. Women and children shrieked in JheiiJ terror, while men fought their way blindly for escape. Seats were torn up and hurled in every direction by the force of the collision, and after the first wild panic had sulisided there were heard piteous moans from different quarters of the wreck telling of painful injuries. Wilting hands went to work, and within a short, time the wounded passengers had been taken from the coach and made as comfortable as circumstances would permit. The greatest indignation and anger prevailed among the witnesses of the collision against Engineer Simpson, who had ruthlessly disregarded the law requiring him to stop and had caused the frightful wreck. Inquiry developed the fact that Simpson had escaped to the swamp. A section foreman on his handcar brought the news of the collision to the city and the Northeastern officials dispatched a special train to convey the injured to the city. List of Injured. The names and extent of injury are given below:. Robert Care, sugar broker, left leg broken and head cut. R. H. Holmes, left leg and arm broken. A. G. Whillow, left knee and hip hurt.

Victim of Vl"H.ntc« Forced to Jump From a Bridge After Curbing Hie Cuptoth — Tragedy at the B'-Htlyrlllc Fair _ Followed l>y an Indignation Meeting and Execution. Lexington Ky., Oct. 15.—Saturday Oscar Morton, a prominent citizen of Stuntou. Wits lynched by a mob at Beattyville for having killed the sheriff in a fight on the fair grounds. At the close of the fair Morton went on the warpath. Only two weeks ago Morton killed his man at Stanton and was ont on $5,000 bond to appear next week in the Powell circuit court. When Morton arrived at the fair he proceeded to get drunk and then went to hunt Sheriff William Simms, who was his deadly enemy, a feud of long standing existing between the two. Simms and Morton met near the entrance to the fair grounds and after a few words both drew guns and a quick exchange of shots followed. Johh Hogg, a friend of Simms, whipped out his gun and joined in the battle. When the smoke had cleared away it was found that Sheriff Simms was dead, having a shot through his breast, one in his abdomen and another through his arm. Morton was shot through the neck, while Hogg was unhurt. “Orderly” Mob Formed. Before a crowd could collect Morton was hustled to jail, but the people became infuriated and a. big meeting was at once held on the public square. Colonel John Drummond made a speech in which he said the murderer must be hanged, but that the work must be done quietly and with perfect order; Morton had killed two men in less than two weeks’ time and he must die by the rope. A mob was quickly formed and marched to the jail. Tho jailer was overpowered and the keys to Morton’s cell obtained. He was found lying in his shirt sleeves on the floor of his cell and after a bitter struggle was seized and dragged out. He then became very imprudent and told the mob he did not care what they did with him provided they did it quickly. After a short parley he was taken to a little bridge some distance from town and the rope was placed aronnd his neck. The leaders drew their guns and told him to jump or else he would be riddled with bullets. Cursed His Captors. Turning around, the condemned man cursed his captors and uttering wild im- * preoations leaped into space. The jump broke his neck, and after dangling in the air for some minutes a volley of shots were fired into him. The mob then dispersed and the body was left dangling from the bridge. None of the mob made any attempt to conceal their identity. The dead sheriff was only recently married and leaves a young wife. The murderer was a wealthy man. He had killed three men. Coming to the fair he attempted to kill the fireman of the train because he would not increase the speed at which the locomotive was running. This is the eighth lynching in central Kentucky in the past three months and the people have determined to put dows murder by lynching. MURDERESS IN MAN’S ATTIRE. Confeulons Concerning the Murder of Mr. Gibbs of BuflUo. Cleveland, Oct. 15. —The police of this city believe that the murder of Montgomery Gibbs of Buffalo has been run down at last. Sadie Robinson was taken to Buffalo Saturday night after confessing that it was she who killed Gibbs, and she is believed to have told the truth in part. Her husband is in jail here charged with burglary, and a cousin of hers named Bert Snyder is also under arrest on the same charge. Snyder made a statement to the police in which he said Robinson had confessed the murder to him. According to the story, Robinson and his wife arrived in Buffalo early last spring. They were penniless and decided to commit a robbery to get money. The woman donned men’s clothing and she and her husband went to a lonely place on Delaware avenue to wait for a victim.
