WORDS WISELY Spokrs.-We clip the
following from an exchange. 1t will be
a glad day for the Nation, when a ma
jority of its oface-seekers follow the e1-
ample of Mr.. Train. Our authority
says:
George Francis Train withdrew from
the canyass as q candidate for Territori-
al delegate in Congress from Nebraska,
for reasons which are thus set forth:
az am told to-day that money Is wanted
for carriages to bring up the voters, and
to scatter about the beer shops and tho
groggeries. Any spare money I may
have I prefer 10 devote to education and
to Christian charities. Purchasing
votes debases the franchise and democrat
ICES the people. l have lectured too
often for the Irish Father Matthew So
cieties to 60 back on them by treating
the voters. No wife, no little children
shall have reason to complain of q
drunken husband or father on election
day on my account. Whisky. is the
curse of our time. II Is running our
young men, and hurrying our old men
in,o the grave. Rich and poor, high
and low, alike, are being destroyed un-
der its blighting influence. When we
have fewer breweries, fewer distilleries,
and more Christian churches, more uni
yersities and more schools, the law
courts will be less patronized, and the
world the better for It." sia@ 4

IT is universally known that the cele-
brated Indian Chief Tecumseh fell at
the battle Of the Thames, G. W., Octo-
Der 5, 1913, but what is not generally
known is the following Circumstance,
related to a correspondent of the New
Orleans Pieayune, by the late Captain
James Davidson, of P~laQuemine, La.
HIt was reported that Tecumseh was
killed, every one was on the alert to find
the body. l was informed that next
day, Mike (my brother) and charles A.
Wickliffe, Of Bardstown, determined to
have a look at Kings Indian as Te-
cumseh was sometimes called. They
went to the spot and found the Indian.
While they were looking at him, Gsner-
al Harrison and the British officer came
up, and one of the latter exclaimed: Il
believe that is Teeumseh.' The other
also thought it was he. They reported
that Tecumseh had q scar on his left
cheek, and one leg was shorter than the
other. This Indian had q small scar on
his left cheek, and, upon examination,
one of his legs was more than an inch
shorter than the other. They agreed
that this was Tecumseh. It was 500
noised abroad that the body was found,
and the skin was taken by our soldiers
to make razor strops." According to
Captain Davidson, Tecumseh was shot
BY o private soldier called David King,
and not by Col. r. N. Johnson, after
wards Vice President OF. the United
States. l3tsa r5 esIup

Awful ~Catasrropho.


A terrible calamity occurred at Men,
phis, Tenn, Wednesday morning. The
confectionery establishment of Joseph
Specht, No. sc Madison street, took FIRE
between three and four o'clock. About
twenty-five persons were asleep in the
third and fourth stories of the building.
The FIRE, which originated in the cellar
from ONE unknown cause, filled the up
per stories with smoke and the fumes Of
burning oil, while the flames in part cut
of egress by the stairs. Fourteen per-
sons were suffocated in their rooms or
lost their lives in attempting to escape
by leaping from the windows. The
killed were as follows: VIM. Jehle and
wife the latter daughter Of Mr.. Specify
both sufocated; VIM. c. Honke, killed,
by lsaping from a window; Frank Ru-
~deihuber, a German pastry cook; Luz
cinda Ringwold, o colored woman and
two children; a German cook named
Philip, Dolly Flint, colored; J. German,
confectionery; Fred. A. French, cook;
one white and one colored man, both
walters and a colored woman, names
not known. An infant child of Mr.. and
Mrs. Jehle was found alive in the room
with them, the only saved of those re-
naming in the room. Mr.. Specht saved
himself BY tying curtains together and
climbing down the balustrade on the
second story. Joseph Barthol jumped
from the fourth story in a mud hole in
the alley and saved his life. Mr.. Wal
ter and clerk lesped from the fourth
story and caught on q window shutter
of the third story where they held them
selves until rescued by the fireman.
Several others were saved by ladders
from the fourth story windows. The
FIRE was extinguished before the build
ing was entirely destroyed. The front
walls remain standing.

PLoUaHISs.-We notice that the farm
ers Of. Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin,
San Francisco and San Mateo counties
are busy ploughing upon the hillsides
around the bay, broad belts Of dark
brown appearing afresh, daily, where
the blue Of the emerald only wa to be
seen before. The high lands are, of
course, fit for ploughing first; but, as
the water runs of, and the earth be-
comes dryer, the ploughing gradually
,descends toward the valleys, whern the
soil is richest, but most moist. The
area of titled land on the bills q. stesdi-
" increasing, year by year; and, in a
few more seasons, nearly the whole sur
face of the very SUBMITS will be made
to bear paying crops. Even the dryest
Of the high hills Of Alameda will pro-
duce tine crops, If ploughed and seeded
early in the Beason} as the experienceof
ne last two years abundantly proves.-.

OuR PRisrIeE ABsoAD.-The events
Of the past Ave years have given the
United States q great importance in the
estimation Of military powers abroad.
Our remarkable achievements with
volunteer soldiers astonished the
old Governments that had believed war
impossible without legions Of regulars.
At 6rst they ridiculed our awkward
efforts, but it vas not long before they
were glad to send out officers to take
notice Of our doings. Both the French
and English Governments took lessons
Of Us during the war, and the United
States kept 9 sort of military school,
wherest the rest Of the world might
learn how far they were behind the
times. Our Government iu~augurated:a
new era in naval architecture, and forth
with all the powers Of Europe built
themselves iron-elad vessels after NJ
patterns. A late dispatch says that the
Prussian Government is about to send
but scommission of experienced officers
to inquire into affairs connected with
our naval service. The United States
generously invites all nations to avail
themselves Of its discoveries and i'm
proyements, and the fact that the oldest
Governments unhesitatingly do so, is 8
gratifying proof of what American en-
ergy and ingenuity can accomplish when
concentrated for q specific purpose on
any given subject.
