BRAVERY AT THE THROTTLE

INDIANAPOLIS LOCOMOTIVE DRIVERS Something About the Loral Mciubm of the Urotherhooil Sample Exprrivnr of tha Average Man Who Hun nu S'mc Holl of Honor. When one steps into a sleeper preparatory to alon journey, on a dark, blustering night, he rarely fliinks of the man in the blue overalls rvho holds in his hands the destinies of all on Loard. Yet this l.uin has th absolute power, for the time being, over many lives ami much valuable property. He hai a Srisdy appearance, but hi.s yes denote an heroic character a character full of determination, bravery, vigilsr.ee and s;re:ivrth. II is a marked man. ir" tie lias eve r rode on a fast ongiiio Lt v. ill be sble to understand how such u character is fostered awl uouri-heti. On a black night, villi. t!ie nun pourhi in torrents, thi mau Hands with the thro; tie vide ojtea, v. liile tho engine govs speeding and jim-ping; along on uncertain track through the darkness, and the iiuui know i!"t w hat iiH'iiient he and all n board will be hurled into eterniriY. Tin efiect is sublime, and it rouses to intensity all the noble inspirations of the man's soul. Then is the true hero amplified, lie cares not for his own life und looks only to the safety cf others. Instant. 3 are innumerable where engineers have sacrificed their lives in order to bare life and property. Everyone remembers rending in the papers uolonjT ago of the dentil of Mike Rcddington und Iiis son, who were on the same engine w hen acolli-'on occurred and both were killed. They paid the penalty of their lives Ik -cause they relused to jump olf their engine .until it was too laic. An engineer becomes conscious of the immense re-pnosibility which he must bear, and this fcrin.; out all the capacity, energy and resources of the man. It is no wonder thai a comp tent engineer commands a better salary Thau a conductor; and rieht lure it may also be said that the engineer, although a bhginarted fellow, is usually frugtd and abstemious in his habits. The result is a!-r a number of years- sen ice- he lias l.-u,l up quite a sum lor his old :ge, or tor his widow when he die,. Not a few of the l l engineers of the city are well ott'. 'this in spile ot the fact that the eujrinetr dors not have the opportunity of going, into the baggage ar and puitin? in his inside pocket ail Hie cash fares that do not stick to the bell cord when he throws them up. One f the charaeterisiics of the engineer is his inodcsry. If a:i outsider tries to talk to him about hi personal tip rienee he becomes very reticent and evasive, but when several get together ami pet started they tell many queer tales about ghosts on the track and on the cow catc her jMid about strange licht they have seen, and many othersttpernatural phenomena with a twinkle" in their eyes and u wink to cat-h-other. They always speakslightinly, however, about that broken arm or leu, aud talk about their wrecks in an oil' hand wav. Perhaps a story here of Hie experience of a r?ru.in engineer of tins city migiit be 01 intertM. This man at one time lay under an endue with the side of his faee .smashed, M illl one eye Jorced out of the socket, w ith ati arm broken nd both loci? smashed, 'ihe rescuers begun to extricate him when lie told them to Mop, and directed them to flair the train com in; in the opposite direction. 'liiL- done, he directed them how to remove the load ott of him, tor if he had not he certainly would have been killed. Here is the srrvof another wreck he was in: "One I;irk night i left my home for a trip. The clouds looked threatening in the direction in which we were sfoin?. A point about lifty miles vest was the incciing point of the eastern and southern fa-t trains. We arrived there 011 time, waited about twenty minute.', ami tbeu proceeded. At the first station "e could lind out nothing about the other train. We kept on, thinking we would meet her at every station. There was no sign of raia on t!ie track until we passed a station near tlie river. We were running patvilel with the river, when 1 called my companion's attention to the pools of water and remarked, "they have had a storm up here,' and then stated that there wasa stream ahead which we mu-t cross near the place where it enters the river end that an engine had gone thronen this bridge several years ago. I jumped out of luv seat, passed "into the ''i:ncw ay a id lo 'kid at the river. A tlah of lightning shovvpfi me that it was "boomim,'" and was likely to overflow the bridge, so I shut oh' the Ptt-ari and put on the airbrakes. I glanced ahead as a brilliant flash of lightning illuminated the wet rails which were apparently all right but which it proved alurwardi had no support, as the middle span hsd hem washed away and the bridge was hantring by the trusses. The rails are there anwiiv,' says I. and so we went on. When ve passed on the bridge the engine trucks left the rail end be pin jumping, on the ties, and with a horrible crash pitched forward in the s'rvani; cnizine, tics, rails, braces, chains, cars ind tenders in one indescribable mass. I was thrown np in the air as the engine pitched forward and came down feet lirst by the whoels. I came up under the sill ot" the express car but i'M)ti manavPtl to breathe the upper air. I felt really joytul when I found my limbs were t. hole and uninjured. The roar of the steam, the intense darkness, broken only by the lightning, was horrible. The mud and water almost ttmiisrled me, but every sense was perfect and ihe situation was stamped indelibly on my nind. 1 turned on my back, and floating on the water took a.view of the wreck, by the frequent flashes of lightning. At that moment I io-ard a jrman and saw part of a head siieking out .of the water end a hand grasping wildly.. 1 took hold of a rail ond pushed it to him. I thought my companion w as under the engine, Hire, and what was my surprise when I saw Iiis face come up. 1 then began towing him to höre, and glancing r.p at the wreck 1 exclaimed, "Grat heavens! Look at those poor passenger cooking'.' There was a coach standing on end, w ith the steam coming out of every window, and the passengers struggling in the vsder in one end, trying to get out. I lad much ditricutly in getting Al to shore. lie T-as well nigh uu-oii.-,cious and one leg was smashed. On the shore I met the conductor, who was heartily lad to see us nlive. I then v. tnt, tired as 1 was, with no lantern, no hat, and not even any clothes or shirt, as 1 had on :ulv a pair of overalls, to flag the other train. I hail to swim the river, and went hbout a mile down the track mid waited till dcylight, lecoming, very cold and miserable. Altoutdawn I recognized a brakeman of the delayed traiu coming along with an old smoked lantern. ' 'Where is r.o. 102 I cried. 'Got a farm on her' 'landslide), he said, 'down hei about three miles,' and in the Rarne brcp-th, 'Where is no. 'f 'ot to be latea, 1 replied: "'Gone to the üranch.' (The stream was called Lost Üranch.) " The h 11 !' said he, 'let's go to S. and get a trir.k; I am frozen.' "We went from there to a telegrr.ph station and the man at the instrument crie.d; "Silence! Listen to that instrument. "So. 1 eighteen cars, caboose, tender ami engine tiiroutrh bridge no. ; conductor and two brakeepjii luisiing. "Then we" were thankful we were 110 worse 31 There wen two pussensrer and one freight train wrecked and tcven bridges washed out. Our road, was hid up for repairs from that fcundujr morning until trie following; Saturday. A WIFE'S SWEET REVENGE. Sh Call Upon Her Husband to Select a Domestic and lie Quails. "I have faced the cannon' mouth on many a lattle field," maid an old soldier, confidentially, to & friend over lunch at a down-town restaurtnt last night. "I have endured hardships, privations and dlsaitere, such as come to the life of every man, but uever felt my courage iail, r.or quailed in the face of any difficulty until to-night. I am now completely broken in pints, und feel that my usefulness in life is ever." "It was all my own fault," he went on to explain. 'You ee, we have a new cook this week, iiul at breakfast this morning, when 1 tried to harpoon something that I mitsook for a biscuit, it roiled off upon the floor with a thnd a dull, siekening thud to the car of a hungry nan, but was finally captured and proved to I -v. upon close examination, originally intended for a biscuit, a I at first supposed, but as a r atter of fact, was of the shape, Lze and weight ef" a bow b tll. 'In an unfortunate moment I charged my wife vith being a por judge of human nature, as was demonstrated by the selection in the capacity of a cook, end intimated that if hecouldn't select a good girl with common sense I would look after one myself. 'Being a dutiful wife,he discharged the girl asd advertised in the afternoou for help.

Imagine my surprise upon entering my sitting room this evening to find it comfortably tilled with females of every variety of size, shape and color. " 'Here is the gentleman of the house,' said my wif to the assembly, and to me see said: 'I have detained these persons, Mr. M'Dufly, that you might exercise jour excellent judgment in selecting; a girl that comes np to your Kandard.' '"Here is an American girl,' she wert on to explain, 'who says hhe can cook well but can't do the wahirg. The Herman girl is first-class in the laundry, but doesn't boaM of her biscuit.' "I managed to stammer: 'Why, I'm surprised; 1 really don't know.' "'Oil, yc, but you do.' she cid inly replied. 'Tills colored girl loves the eUJren, but she doesn't ' 'Ah, but excuse me ladies. I said, trying to see my way out. 'I know nothing about girls.' Kcne y.,i;r knowledge of human nätnrv, my dear,' said my wife, with her back against the door. Thi girl has splendid recommendation, but her hair is so very red, it is possible that your hop;.' ' "At this juncture I escaped, and I want to sny right now that if 1 ever again meddle with the cook, I hope may be blown into tea thousand little pieces." INDIANA'S WAR CLAIM.

Vt'hai She Ask Fro 111 I'nele Sam Mr. Mich euer tVill lleceive No Fee. The spirited fight that has just Leen made in congress on the part of i small minority of the house against the passag? of the direct tax bill has been of considerable local interest, and the question has been frequently a-ked: What benefit Indiana would derive from the passage of the bill, ami what the attorney general would be entitled to as commission? The claim of Indiana, as it was presented by the state to the treasury department, calls for a large sum. At the outbreak of the war th-: treasury' of the state of Indiana w as depleted, and to nable the state to properly respond to t!ie calls of the president of the United Slates for troops for the common defense, and to projjerly raise, organize, equip, support, puy and transport them, it became necessary to raise money by loan. The general ifseinbly. by an act approved May l.'t, lxd. authorized tlie governor to issue two million dollars of bonds of ihe state, the proceeds of the sales of which were to be u-ed in the manner stated. The bonds were issued as directed ami after due notice they were sold at a discount of $24.".,107..")1. because the war then existing had impaired the credit of the state to that extent. The state, however, had to pay the full uinount of the bonds. The expense of negotiating the bonis was Jl,osö.ö:. The bonds called for the payment of 6 per cent, interest, payable semi-annually. In interest, the state has paid S.'!y,l.!.ö). The summary of the losses and payments shows the following: Tlie I'ldted States to the slate of Indiana, Ir.

Approved July 7, The question arose on the filing of the claim as to what construction should be put on the act of congress. And up to the present time Iiis claim ami the claims of other Mates h ive Ik-i ii bandied about, objections being raised on one ground and another against their payment, the sironges.t objection being; that the Vniteil States does not pay interest, which is contrary to the fundamental statines of the government. The states have stood their ground valiently. and have been tirm in their demands for both the prineiyal and interest on n!l sums due them by the United States. The bill luislx en foucht over in nearly every session of congress in the last decade, and defeated on one pretext or another. The total claim of the state of Indiana against the government, including interest up to the present time, amounts to S14,b7.3.3.t. The salary of the attorney general is mostly made up of commissions and fees, and it has been remarked that the allowance of this war claim would be a great w indfall for him. This w ould, indeed, bt; true, if such were possible, but under an act of the trencral assembly dated April 11, !"., he is excluded from all right to a commission on any sum paid to the state by the United States. After defining his fees upon several things it concludes with the following: Provided that the provisions of t hi.4 seetiou in re. laiion to the fees and coniiiiissjons of the attorneypeneral shall Uot apply t-i auy s;nu of money received from the jrnvemiiiriit cf the L'niteü Sait hr the st.ite of Indiana, by virtue ot auy act of congress or otherwise. "No," said Mr. Miehener. "I don't get anything out of this. I have tried to get this thing through as a duty I owe. to my position, but it is all tor glory." MR. BYNUM HEARD FROM.

The statement, however, th.it I have peremptorily lefieed to allow my na:ne to be m, and tkit I would decline a iioniinatiou if tendered ine. N not correct. While it is true that I have not sanctioned the ii'e of mv n unc, it is also true that I hare not forbid it. "I wrote you some time aei that I did not ileire the nomination, but. that it the party eoncloded thut I oie.'hl to make the race, I would do so. There is do occasion for my lacing misunderstood.

The regular monthly meetinj of the Marion County Agricultural society was held in the rooms of ec'y Heron at the eapitol Saturday. The wheat crop was the principal topic up for discussion. lie ports showed a very poor prospect for anything liUe an average yield of that cereal. It had been literally frozen out. There had not been enough Know-full during the past winter to protect the crop aud the ground lias been frozen deeper than for many years. Frequent thaws had occurred which had been very damaging. Many farmers, it was said, would plow up their whcut-tields and plant them in corn. Messrs. Sylvester Johnson of Irvington aud Mr. John Iteagan of f Jreencastle trave an interesting account of their trip to California, where they had gone to attend the meeting of the American horticultural society at Kiversidc. They were received very hospitably and every attention was shown them. They were the guests, while there, of the secretary of the ttate board of agriculture. A Very Peculiar Find. On the Garner farm, northwest of the city, the other day, German laborers, working near the river, discovered buried in the earth a barrel of green coffee that had probably been there for thirty or forty yeanr. The barrel had rotted and the coffee was in a decomposed state. How it got there is a mystery, but most likely it had been taken there by thieves, who failed to return tor their booty.

Its Condition in Indinna and Illinois Growing 'Worse In Otlter States. Chicago, April I t The following crop summary, compiled by the Farmer Ra it tr, will be printed this week: Spring is now so far alvajoed that the real condition of the winter wheat can be approximately determined. The fe;ir expie.ei in the last report, of date of March 21, that the condition is more likely to grow worse than to improve in the next tw o or t'iree w eeks, has been realized in the states of Indiana and Illinois, whiie reports from the other of the western wheat-grow ing states show as hiji percentage of condition ks nt that date, with a sliulit gain in sonic eases. The report by ,-tates show ihe follow ing averages of condition at pn -em date, as compared with cotnlkioo on March 21: Ohio Thirty-two counties rcjtort present condition tts compared wiih an average condition at this time of year, of 7- per cent.; couditio.i on March 21, l't per cent. Indiana Twenty-three counties report condinoni'i per cent.; condition on March 21, 70 per cent. Illinois Seventy-one counties re ort condition lU'a per cent.; condition March 21, S2 per cent. Kennieky Sixteen cot;nfi,'s report average condition SO per cent.; condition March 21, 7" per cent. Missouri Twenty-six counties report conditiesi'jpcr cent.; condition March 21, i?J per cent. Kansas Twenty-eight count ie report condition H J.'i per cent.; condition March 21, I'll per cent. YViseonsin Pightcon counties report condition V2 per cent.; condition March 21, 1'j per cent. Michigan Fourteen counties report an average of 76 per cent.; condition March 21, 77 per cent. The slight change of condition in the states of Wisconsin aud Michigan is due to the fact mat, until witnin a recent peno.i, mo m n:s were covered with snow, while in Kentucky, Mi-souri ami Kansas the wheat, ha. not been subjected to the frequent freezing and thawing which proves -o injurious to the plant in ihe states of Illinois mid Indiana. "L'r. Jchjl" Lclipcd. "YVood is good in the transformation seen remarked a south-side man, "bin there is a wo- i man who lives next door to ub mat he can't hold a candle to." "Is the on the stage?''

The Dubois county delegate convention met at Huntingburg to-day and organised by electing A.M. Sweeney chairman and -C Doane secretary. The convention was large and enthusiastic. Resolutions were unanimously adopted iudorsin Cleveland's administration and his tariff measures; commending Gov. Gray's gubernatorial conduct, and inviting him to step higher to the vice presidency; also indorsing the course of our congressman, the Hon. John H. U'Xeal. The delegates to the state convention were instructed for Myers for governor, Niblack for supreme judge, Munson for auditor, and Pernes for treasurer. The delegates to the congressional convention were instructed for the Hon. J. H. O'Neal ; those to the joint senatorial convention, composed of Dubois and Perry counties, for the lion. YY. A.

Piekard of Dubois; those to the representative district convention, composed of Dubois, Orange and I-awrenee counties, for the Hon. James II. YViilard of Lawrence, and those to the judicial convention of the Eleventh judicial circuit, for the lion. John L. Pretz of Dubois for prosecuting attorney. ' A resolution to nominate henceforth candidates for eounty olhecs was vehemently voted dow iijso the Irec-for-all race still obtains in Dubois, with her 1,81 democratic majority. This is certainly a novel feature in politics, but we get there all the same. After a short but siirriug speech by Cypt. Myers the convention adjourned. Richmond. April l'y Special. The democraey of YVayne county here yesterday indorsed Gov. Isaac P. Gray for second place on the national ticket with Grover Cleveland. T. J. Study w as recomincuded tor presidential elector. Among the resolutions adopted was one that YV. Dudley Foulke might ponder over to advantage. It reads s follows: That we deplore Hie ccuuiulatlntj evidences of iolitieal itegeiieracy and di-.liuety in the republican party of Wayne couniy, as seen in the open use of money at the oils, and as lowu by the unwarrantable and startling increase of exinse for tlie perlorneiiice of pl.;in and simple olfiv'ial duties, and that wea-k that part of the s li-c..utit.e 1 civil serviie reform association of Indiana which r.ides in this county, to turn the li-jht of its inwstijtiou upon the transactions of republican otiW-lndder and office-seeker of oareouuty, and to show up iu th,-ir true colors tbe Mcnuac and hypucriv of men who, in the name of reform, wink at 'the robbery of our taxpayers ami the debauchery of voters. This was the largest democratic convention ever held in YY'ayne county. Judge Lewis Jordan addressed the convention in a two-hours' speech, confining bims It largely to the tariff rpiestion.

There seemed to be a slight ma.joritv favorable to Harrison, bat it was thought advisable not to adopt the resolution. Charles P. Griüin, secretary of state, addressed the meeting, ladling out the regulation gruel to the brethren. They listened in vain for him to explain w hat became of the books belonging to the state and under the imnlediate care of our "cfli'.icr.t secretary of state."
