BIHIIS WERE DELUDED

Dy th Skill with Which the Troops at Fort Riley Hid Themselves. I)M SUCCESSFULLY DEFEDID Entrenchments That Were Bard t Find Texas Regiment Wiped . Out by the Umpires, ., i Port Riley, Kan.. Oct 27. Fort Riley still belongs to the government. The enemy made a desperate effort to capture It and failed. They did not exactly fail, either, for the fight still was hot when the umpires stopped it, but they had not secured it at the time the halt was called, and consequently Its possession remains where it was before the fight- The enemy sought to. capture the post was General C. C. Carr with nine regiments of infantry, two full regiments and one additional squadron of cavalry, - and four batteries (the Browns). Good Work on tho Trenches. The force that withstood him under the command of Colonel Stover, of the Fourth cavalry, was the First battalion of engineers, under Major Leach; the Sixth infantry, commanded for the day by Lieutenant Colonel Loughborough; a battalion of the Twelfth Infantry, two batteries of artillery, and one squadron of cavalry (the Blues). The most remarkable features of the day's work was the ability shown by the officers and men of the defending forces in the construction and concealment of their trenches. At a distance of 200 paces they were invisible, even to those who knew tbdr exact loca4 frhtv a Very Birds Were Fooled. The outside of the trenches. was covered with grass and bushes, so arranged as to the resemble the remainder of the landscape. In addition the men twined grass around their bats, or tied branches upon their shoulders, which served to hide the colors of their hats and blue shirts. In several instances so complete was the concealment that birds flying in from the front perched in the transplanted bushes above the lines of Infantry before discovering the men lying beneath them. Disposition of tb i Defending Force. Colonel Stove placed five companies of the Sixth infantry on the right under the direct command of Captain W. K. Jones, with Lieutenant Colonel Loughborough in charge of the entire line. The battalion of the Twelfth infantry held the center. The engineers and a portion of the cavalry being on the left. TEXAS REGIMENT ANNIHILATED So tu Umpire Decided. Before It Could Get Into Effective Action. Up to the time of the actual charge upon the entrenchments the advantage was with the Browns. It was on the rlghwhere Lieutenant Colonel Lough borough fend Captain Jones held the line, that the hardest fighting was done, and here it was that General Carr's attack, cleverly managed as It was, met a complete repulse. Lieutenant Colonel Loughborough bad given orders that no fire should be directed upon the Browns until they were close up, but the Impudence of a Prown squadron prancing along a ridge within 500 yards was too much for some of his men, who fired the few rifle shots. In a short time the Brown Infantry in long lines poured over the hills a mile and a half distant and advanced straight upon the trenches. Every advantage of the ground was taken by the attacking force, but there were thousands of them, all coming down a long slope toward a ravine, beyond which lay the entrenched infantry with a battery and one machine gun, and it seemed as though any man who could hit the hill could not miss a Brown soldier. The fxas Infantry on General Ca it's left made a beautiful mark as they passed In a flank march 500 yards away, .The time for the. defenders had oome, and they seized it promptly. Com pan j K, of 'the Sixth, . under. Captain Welch, opened fire, and In a a instant the entire line was blazing away at the. Texas Infantry. The volume of the fire was so great that the umpires deckled that the Texas regiment was for the most part out of the action before It reached a position from which It could open fire. Other troops came down, but the steady infantry fire and the unceasing pop of the machine gun, punctuated by the report of the three-inch gun, continued, and In a short time the left of General Ca it's attack was in a bad way and the umpires decided that It never could have succeeded on that part of the line. Over in the center and on the right General Carr was still very much In the battle when Colonel Wagner put a period to the fighting. - f Sorioos Result of an Explosion. Sullivan, IndMOct. 20.

Following Is a list of the dead: Timothy SulUran. foreman; William Schnette, electrician; Alfonso Arxneteilo, Guiseppe Barone, Lulgi Poet Glacomo Shaccettl, Ferri Teill. two unidentified, and Frank Uppert. Injured Juno Pasquale, Batasto Velantio, and Juno liaskl Seams That Foretold tbe Disaster. The accident was the most disas trous that has occurred in the con struction of the subway. At the point where the cave-in occurred a gang of twenty men was at work In the tun nel, which Is' about 110 feet below the surface. Ruf us C. Hunt, general superintendent of the tunnel work, said that two converging seams had appeared in the roof cf the tunnel during the day work on Saturday. The presence of these seams, however, was not believed to indicate any more dangerous char acter of the rockthan had previously been encountered. Fell Just After a Blast. Three blasts had been let off Just before the catastrophe and ten minutes after tbe . explosion Timothy Sul livan, the foreman, and Electrician Schutte advanced, the latter intending to string wires and hang electric lamps to light the way. They were followed by sixteen workmen. The vanguard of the gang had reached the broken stone when a rumbling sound was heard. It grew In volume with light ning-like rapidity. Those In the rear had Just time to turn about and run when, with a deafening crash, hun dreds of tons of rock fell on the men at the face of the boring. The drillers and two or three Italians who were out of reach of the fall of rock were knocked flat on their faces by the rush of wind driven through the tunnel. Had to Amputate Iiis Leg. "Wnen the roor had ceased the cries of Injured workmen echoed through the tunnel, and relief work was at once organized. The first victim found, an Italian laborer, was pinioned on a shelf of the excavation by one leg-, a boulder of about ten tons In weight having fallen on the limb. lie was hanging head down. The rock which held him was restrained from falling further by a small piece of stone in securely wedged under it. An examlna lion showed that an effort to move the boulder would cause the Italian to be completely crushed. The doctors then determined to amputate the pinioned leg, and this was done In the light of the ambulance lamp. The man died liter. Pathetic Incident. The most pathetic incident in connec tion with the accident was the finding of the body of Foreman Timothy Sullivan. From about 3 o'clock vm the morning until after daylight his 10-year-old son Samuel had stood close to the policemen who were helping the laborers and blasters pick away the debris and could not be induced to leave until the body of his father had been extricated and taken from the tunnel.

Typhoid is Contagious. Dr. Robert Koch, the world renown- j ed physician and bacterologisr, says: "I warn everybody that typhoid is communicated from mao to man, and that it is highly contagious as contagious as cholera for instance. It can be restricted and fought by the public health authorities and henceforth must be subjected to the rules and regulations that apply in cases of cholera. One case is propagated by anotbef, in spite of ordinary precautions. First one person Is sickened, two or three weeks later a second, again after a few weeks a third etc, a perfect chain. The disease was communicated by inhaling the patient's breath, by a handshake, by wiping his brow, by washing his linen in the same tub with tbe rest of the peoples, etc. Whenever a typhoid epidemic breaks out tbe water supply is blamed, and usually with excellent cause, but in the majority of cases people's unclean habits, negligence and downright contempt for scientific rules and regulations are no less blamable. Small children often suffer from typho fevers in mild form so as not to be obliged to take to their beds, tbe illness passing for a simple diarrhoea. As a consequence no precautions are observed, and whole households and schools may be infected, sometimes long after the little sufferers have got over the indisposition." Had You Thought of It? It you were offered $1000 a year for your services, and were. asked to de posit $40 as a guarantee that your du ties would be promptly and satisfac torily performed would you accept? of course you would. $40 is the small amount of money required to take a six mouth's course in the Huntington Business Univer sity at Huntington, lud., so as to prepare for such a position, and $1000 per year is the salary that the United States government is offering for stenographers. Business firms in large cities are just as much in need of of fice help as is the government, yet there are thousands of people who have never thought of how easily they can make themselves capable of earnmg a large salary. The person who is lazy or skeptical will not give this information a second thought, while the person who bas higher aim in life than to merely eat and sleep will investigate this opportunity, and he will not wait about it, either. Young people in this locality are wide awake enough to know a good thing like this and we hope to hear of their giving this matter immediate consideration. O. E.

It is just such instances as this that have aided this man to rise from a poor and obscure discharged prisoner from Tasmania to the father of a doctrine which thousands now claim as their religion. When John Alexander Dowie landed in San Francisco he could carry his few dollars In his band; now he is the possessor of unbounded wealth and day by day is growing richer and richer, ne landed in San Francisco in 1888 and two years later he was . in Chicago without a cent. In some manner he secured possession of a small one story shanty and for three yeras preached the Zlon doctrine, gradually recruiting his ranks until be had a considerable following. After a residence of 10 years in Chicago he was In comfortable circumstances, having Induced the members of his nock to Dart with $100,000 of their wealth. Later he founded Zlon home, built Zion banc and erected i Zion tabernacle. He also became the owner of several semi-charitable institutions and the possessor ot 6,000 acres of land near Chicago, the site of Zion City. Dowie is now In his zenith and with a personal fortune said to be $4,500,000, not to speak of his power zs a director ot estate value at $8,580,000, he is one of the greatest characters of the century.
