A Daring Outrage.

A daring railway Outrage was perpe-

A TERRIFIC CAR RrDE.-A few nights
since one Of the cars Of the Bay View
Railroad Company, in which there wore
thirty-six passengers. was Mt the top OF
the grade at tho southern end Of Islais
cut, going south, when the driver APP
piled the brake. The chain broke, and
both brakes became useless. The car
then started down the grade at a terrific
rate Of speed. gaining impetus as 1t
went along. The driver was unable to
do anything but TO keep the horses
within she track and on their feet. The
passengers sought to leave the car, but
the conductor closed the door on them
and refused to allow them to get out,
believing that they were safer inside
than IL they attempted to jump of.
The car proceeded nearly half a mile,
when one Of the horses, from exhaustion,
fell, aud the car was brought 10 a stand
still. None Of the passengers were In

I wish to add my testimony to the won
derful curative properties Of your Alt.
Ext, or Golden Medical Discovery. I
have taken great interest In this msdi-
cine since I first used II. I was badly
afflicted with dyspepsia, liver dernnged,
and an almost perfect prostration Of the
nervous system. 80 rapidly and com
completely did the Discovery effect o
perfect cure that II seemed more like
magic and a perfect wonder to myself;
and since that time We have never been
without q bottle Of the Discovery and
Purgative Pellets in the house. They
are a solid, sound, family physician in
the house, and rsady at all times to fly
TO the relief Of sickness-without charge.
We have never had q doctor in the
house since we first began the use Of
your Pellets and Discovery. I have
recommended the use OF these medicines
in several severe and complicated cases
arising from. Al I thought, m impure

have they failed to more than accom-
plish all they are claimed to do. ! will

was one OF the most pitiful objects ever
seen-his face swollen out Of shape,
scales and eruptions without end, ex-
tending to his body, which was COM
pletely covered with blotchss and scales.
Nothing that he took seemed TO affect II
a particle. finally induced him 10 try
q few bottles OF the Golden Medical Dis
covery. with daily use OF the Pellets,
assuring him II would surely cure him.
He commenced its use some six weeks
since, taking two Pellets each night for
q week, then one each night, and the

to-day his skin is perfectly smooth and
the scaly eruptions are gone. He has

THE CALIFORNIAN PICNIC.

The Ninth Annual Picnic of the Chicago
Caledonian Club was held at Calendonian
Park on Thursday, Aug 18th, and proved
as anticipated, splendid success. 1t is not
saying too much to state that q more graf.
iied or better conducted party never left the
city of Chicago. Husbands and wives with
their families and lads with their lasses,
seemed to vie with each other-in making
their holiday happy one. The games
always the feature Of the CaledOnian-were
the centre of interest, and were stubbornly
contested. The arrangements were admir-
able-every officer attended to his duty-and
attended to it well, in fact, we didn't meet a
grrmbler on the grounds
The Park is certainly the most beautiful in
the neighborhood Of Chicago, and after ade.
quate railroad accommodation can be furnish.
ed, is no doubt destined to become the favor.
lite resort for our people who desire day,
enjoyment away from the din and hustle Of
the city.
To chief Mcclellan, Messrs. Elder, Forest
and Oag-as also the games committee, special
thanks are due, as their efforts to contribute
te the enjoyment of the company were unceas.

FROM PENNSYLVANIA.

Not having seen anything in your inter
esting paper from the Iron Workmen of this
city, and thinking, perhaps that few
words from your fellow workmen Of the
City Of Brotherly Love, would prove inter
estlng to some one, Ill take hand and
try. We have started Lodge here, which
meets on the fourth Saturday of each
month. 1t has been in operation about
eight months. 1t represents SIX regular
merchant mills and one spike mill. 1t EN-
braces a membership of about one hun
bred and ten QIO) members. We have
some good takers and some good workers,
and Of course a few drones. The Lodge Is
in a healthy and hourishing condition,
each Brother striving 10 work for the good
of the others and for the good of the
Lodge, all blending together in one accord
to keep all bones of dIssensiOn outside the
place, except such as affects our whole
organization and then all JOIN with
strong hands and willing hearts to avert
the threatened emil, and proclaim light over
tyranny. As yet we have had no difficulty
that has not or cannot be settled by Arbi-
tratIon.
The Iron trade Of this city has revived
up little in the last few weeks, most Ut
the mills are running ON full time, with
some talk Of double turns. Owing tO the
advance in the price Of iron, to 3 cents per
pound, we have received a weeks notice
from the bosses of an advance of wages
of eight and two-thirds $50 per cent, or
the same amount that was taken off us
few weeks ago. Robbins mill, which has
been stopped since about the first Of July,
is expected to start up IN a few days, the
proprietor being melted to action by the
late advance in the price Of iron he hav-
my said that he would not make iron for a
less price than three cents per pound.
l see some complaints in your paper, of
some employers paying their men in store
orders, but p iladelphia employers pay
their men in green-backs the most of
them keeping one weeks pay back and
some firms keeping only two OF three days
back, each mill paying its men every week.
Now my dear ADVOCATE, because | have
written such favorable letter of the con
dition Of the iron trade Of the Quaker city,
! don't want any Of your friends or mine
to think that all they have to do is, to
come here and go to work, for owing to a
strike among the Heaters Of Baldwin's Lo-
connective Works, and the double turns be-
ing off nearly all the mills, there are a
great many Heaters and Roughers out of
work here at the present time. SO beg
of any fellow workman, be he in the Union
or out of it, il hunting work, for his own
good, to steer wide course from Philadel-
phia, while times are such a. they are now.
Hoping this letter may be Of some interest
to you, subscribe myself,
Fraternally Yours,
OLD RAILS.

are coming to an appreciation Of their folly,
as We believe they are loosing from ten to
twenty thousand dollars . month. Not
outstanding their long pockets, We believe
the blacklegs will find the bottom Of il.
The blacklegs are mostly Scandinavian,
and ! believe they have an organization in
Chicago for the protection Of labor If %,
| think they are not going the right way
to protect labor, but rather 10 degrade it.
Il any Of the members belonging 10 the
above association should see this, would
be pleased to have them investigate the
matter, and stop their countryulen from
njuring us. On the 18th Of April the
Star Coal Company called q committee Of
their men to meet them, and make arrange
ments for going to work. The men met
the president OF the company, but failed
to make any settlement This WAS the
tirst time the men met that company. On
the LIST Of August rumors were AhoAt that
Star Company offered to let the men 20 to
work at 10 cts reduction, 90 a committee
Of the men went to him, and wished tu
know If these rumOrs were true, but he
said they were not. And he stated that
his shaft would not start except ON the ~
cent reduction, but ON the next day, he,
(Crombie) was reported as being around
with some Of the Bohemians trying to get
them to work. He gave them lager beer,
all they could drink, in order to induce
them 70 20, but when he stopped treating
them, they told him they would not 20 to
work till all the men went together; 50 his
bride did him no goood. The Diamond |
Coal Company here, had a few blacklegs |
working, but they are putting out very lit |
tie coal, as you may judge by the follow |
ing A farmer went to the shaft to get q |
load OF coal, he asked the clerk If he could |
get load; " Yes, says the clerk, " if
YOU pay cost price tor 1t. What Is the |
cost price g" asked the farmer. Sirty dol |
lars per ton, says the clerk. Guess |
won't take any, says the farmer, and he |
drove away as fast As possible. Mr.. Whit |
comb, the superintendent, says he will nil |
his shaft with blacklegs If the men do not |
20 to work at the prices, but | think such |
n man must be either u knave or fool or 1
both If he would prefer to pay sixty dollars
per ton instead OF one dollar and twenty
hve cents per ton. But we cannot ex-
pect a great deal more from hlm, As he was
brought up to be a shoe maker, but | am
thinking the proprietors Of the mine will
not let him come any II his shoemakIng
tricks on them, as | believe he will soon be
discharged in disgrace
The men are in pretty good condition a.
far as determination, this IS the old miners,
goes, but some of them are badly of and
need assistance. We are receiving some
htfla frnm surruundinp nlact.s and OlV0 |
out the provision to them as long as we
have any money, but our funds are low,
and we would be pleased to receive little
from those places that are working. Viii
you send some If so, forward the same
to NJ Dando, box 14l, Brentwood, Will

received and duly acknowledged Hoping
