The train was on time and running at the *f & ot'about thirty miles an hour. An .jspX 'tuination ot the switch this morning

T» ualed the fact that the switch lever hai. been tampered with by removing the .•A. jr»a'bolt, which moves the target, when the switch is thrown. This would throw 'the swith yet not move the target and it u^showed to the engineer, "clear for the main track." The bolt was found about f" twenty-live leet from the target. The track was blockaded, stopping all trains, iuntil a track could be built around the derailed train. This mado all the night express trains about seven hours late 'Trains were not interfered with as a -u,i temporary track was built around the derailed train. The officials expect to have the train on the track and the trrek clear

FOOL'S PARADISE.

The Rare Spectacle Presented at the

Patti Concert for the Michigan y,i,

"i- km «Sufferers. ''V*

Bpoclnl to the Chicago Tribune. It appears that the committee had arranged a sort of literary programme to sandwich in witli.the music, and during one of the pauses a fellow named George M. Saunders, who apparently, was olliciatiug as tlio committee's master of ceremonies, .stepped to the front and began a set. speech which lie had written oil", or some one else had written for him. In the course of his incoherent remarks he mentioned the names of various prominent citizens who had sent their regrets that they could not be present to encourage this atTair and sit on the platform, and. among them, he said, was ''the President, Chester A—A—A—"and here the orator stuck until somp, one in the audieuee kindly snug outi "Arthur," wheu Saunders, who couldn't t«U tlio President's name, repeated it after his prompter, au'3 continued his speech, amidst a tumult of hisses, cheers,, catcalls and the like. Shortly after this, Saunders, who had left the stage for a few minutes, came into the hall with a small flag in one band and an immense laural wreath, iu which wero intertwined flags, in the other. Setting his burden on the stage he stepped forward as Patti finished a number, and,began another speech, much to the disgust of the audience, but to the intense satisfaction of the mayor and committee who had arranged the surprise. He wound up by declaring that he crowned her queen of song of two countries, and liftthe crown, endeavored to place it. on Patti's head. She, however, "dodged" and ran, and the prodigious roll of green boughs tumbled against Saunder's knees and nearly threw him over. Mayor Grace jumped and he&ded Patti off, and, snatching the crown, attempted to place it over her head, but she would not have it, and a race about the stage began, participated in by the three, while the audience yelled with delight, hissed, and cries were heard ot "Throw the fool out ol the window!" "Kill 'em both," etc. Patti was determined she wouldu't be crowned, and it was not until the mayor and Saunders had run themselves out of breath that they determined to bring the farcical proceedings to a close The other dignified first citizens on the platform kept up their llunky exhibition to the last, and the audience dispersed, much disgusted, and yet full of laugbtty over the astonishing antic? that had been sandwiched iu between the numbers the musical programme. ,,4

Kidnapping the Kids. j. cw

Special to the ludiauapolts Journal:

CoHNjEiwvir.LE, .November 17.—A few mouths ago, Skbma Williams, a married man with two ohildren, aged four and ..irtnT six years respectively, left his wife in

Kentucuy and came to this city, bringing the children with him, making his home a, with an uncle, a prominent and highly respected citizen of this plrfce,

About 8 o'clock Tuesday morning a lady who proved to be the mother of the children, alighted from a carriage contain f'v^ingtwo men, seized the children, who were standing on the sidewalk in front of the house, and returned with them to the carriage, which was dHyen Tapidly away, while one of the men drew a revolver and forced the drlv«r toco faster. The husband soon learned his loss and, frantic with grief, started in pursuit. After s' leaving the city they went west and were arrested at Kushvilla. The party retnrnte bore in custody of officers at *8 o'clock

to Sing in Opera.

Special to the Indt&napolls Journal. NKW YORK, NOV. 17.—Madame Patti to-night made a contract with Henry E.

Abbey, theatrical manager, to make a tour of the United States and give thirty musical entertainments. He agrees to pay her $5,000 & sight and expenses for

herself and company. They will give acts from various operas, and not ballad concerts, as was. the intention of the first managemeht. Abbey says he is embarrassed greatly by Patti's engagement, and is compelled to shape everything else so as to meet that. Haverly offered Patti $4,000 a night. .i:'

,yl,'n'r t- '.J

Begs leave to call the attention of the American people to its mode of busisness, and twks the support of tjie art-loving public. We shall, as fast as possible bring out lathis country, in the higtea style of artistic work, every ftwnous ait work of th§ Old World, and at prices which will enable Ihe people of moderate means to adorn their homes with the choicest art worksr.

As an introductory example of the quality and style of work which will.be produced by tis, we will take pleasure in forwarding tq any applicant a Complimentary Copy Free of the first., edition of art work produced by us in America.

Visitors to the Dore Gallery, London, will remember the superb painting, occupying nearly an entire side of the splendid gallery, entitled .,

Christ Leaving the Praetorium.

Ot this magnificent painting—the most important of Dore's works—a pure line steel engraving has just been completed in England. This engravintr is only sold by subscription, and the price is £Q, or about $80. It is alsolutely impossible to secure a copy at a less price, except through tne offer. The engraving represents the Savior as he is leaving the Pnctorium, after being condemned to crucifixion, lie is descending the steps leading from the judgment Court. At the loot of the steps stands two burly executioners. in charge of the cross wlticb the Savior is to bear. On the right are the followers and believers of Christ, with de spair im their every look, while the mother of our Lord is an agonized and fainting attendant* In the rear and on the left are the judges and scoffers, sur rounded Poatins Pjlate,whoarc looking with fierce complacency on their work. The central figure is that of Christ, as he uncomplainingly descends the steps to take up the cross and bear ,it to thescenc of his crucifixion.

The work in this portion of the engraving is more perfect and beautiful than we had supposed could ever be executed. The expressions of the faces, tne grouping ot the figuros, jnd the careful attention to detail in the drapery and accessories of the picture, are all carried out in perfection and with consummate skill. There is a very large number of figures in the work, and all are depicted with life-like faithfulness It stands to-day unquestionably •., *i

The Finest and Most Valuable En-

graving" in the World-

fjc

The engraving of thu plate cost upward ot $30,010, and no copies from it qre sold at a less price than $30, which, with duties and shipping added, brings the cost to American purchasers to about $40 per copy.

This splendid work is the first of a series of prominent art worka of Europe, which the American Art Exchange will produce in America, [simultaneous with their production in the Old World, and at prices which will enable the multitude to purchase.

This first work "Christ Leaving the Praitoruim," will be used as an introductory advertisement, and a limited number will be furnished "Jt'j *5« l-'UUn V6X 4^

Free To All Applicants.

It is a correct reproduction of the Engglish plate, which sells at $30 per copy, many of which have been purchased by a number of Atkerica»s at that price who subscribed- for it through the English house. The American edition will, be furnisued in the same size and wilh the same attention toperfeet work as characterizes the $30 copies.

The object of this extraordinary offer iB to bring our enterprise into imihediate recognition1 in this country, s© that when we announce future works, the public will have had an opportunity to judge of the quality and beauty of the art work produced by the American Art Enchange.

TJntil the fitst edition is exhausted, we will ship a perfect copy of the engraving "Christ Leading the Praetorium" to any applicant. The engraving (which is a very large one) will be put up in heavy tube, and sent by mail. The only charge will be the cost of tubing and postage, which will be ten three cent stamps. It was at first thought twenty cents would be sufficient for this Chairge, but from frequent breaking of the tubes in the mail bags it was decided to increase the thickness and strength of the tubes (thus making them heavier) so that they could not be broken except in case of an accident This necessitated an increase of charges this purpose to 80 cents or 10 three oent stamps.

On receipt of application we will immediately forward this superb engraving to any addres in the United States, all charges prepaid, when 10 three-cent stamps are enclosed in letter to cover postage and tube. At anv time within one year we will take back the engraving and allow a credit of $8 for it in payment for anv works issued by as.

Two or more copies, each for a different person, but to the sfcme address, can be forwarded at the cost of 21 cents each, as one tube can be used for several copies. Not more than five copies will be sent to any one addressed for distribution, and the name of each member of the club must be sent
