DANGEROUSLY IL.-The Enterprise O.

DANGEROUSLY ILL.-The Enterprise OF
yesterday says:
District Attorney Will Campbell is in
6 very critical condition. For some days
he has been confined 10 his bed with his
old complaint of lung disease. and has
been gradually growing worse. Night
before last he was unable to get any rest
whatever. and was splitting blood copi-
ously. Yesterday morning he was very
weak, and his state is such as to Justify
the gravest fears for the result on the
pant of his friends.

The MURDERER SHARKEY.-Sharkey
the New York murderer. has played his
cards we'll. The New York authorities
have been after him with their best men,
but they could not kidnap him. and they
could not openly seize him on Spanish
soil. He has now assumed the name Of
"Dr. Francisco G. Campbell" and,
armed with q passport presented BY
Count Valnaseda himself, he has left
Havana for Spain, with the intention Of
entering the service of King Alfonso.
and will doubtless be heard Of fighting
the Carlists some day. He has learned
to speak Spanish, and is said to have
thoroughly reformed his habits. A more
desperate murderer, however, never ex-
listed.

ACCIDENT AT KNIGHTS LaNprNG.-By
a gentleman who arrived in the city from
Knights Landing last evening We learn
that q young man was accidentally shot
at that place about half past yesterday
afternoon. 1t appears that he had been
working on a ranch short distance from
the Landing, and yesterday started for
the town, hunting along the way. On
arriving he evidently concluded to leave
his gun, ETC., concealed in the brush q
short distance from the Yolo House,
while he transacted his business. but
while he was concealing his gun it vas
accidentally discharged. the contents
striking him on the check and tearing it
completely of. He called to man who
was near by, and then ran to the hotel,
falling about the time he reached it.
Physicians were summoned. who dressed
his wound as soon as possible. and he
was still alive when our informant left.
The unfortunate man did not appear to
have any acoaaintances at the Landing.

A Terrible Hail-StOrm.

The delayed Union Pacific train that
arrived here at eleven O'Clock last night
from the West presented very ragged
and dilapidated appearance, owing to its.
having encountered terrible hail STERN
at Potter Station, in the western part of
the State, on Thursday evening, at about
half.past seven O'Clock. The train was
about pulling out from the station when
the storm arose, and in a few moments the
hail began falling with such great force
and rapidity that the train had to be
stopped The hailstones were of immense
size, being on an average three inches in
diameter, and of all kinds of shapes
squares, cones, cubes, etc,
The first stone that struck the train
broke window, and the flying glass
severely injured lady on the nose, max
ing deep cut. Five minutes aiterward
there was not a whole light of glass on the
south side Of the train the whole length OF
it, The windows in the Pullman cars
were Of French plate three-eighths of an
inch thick, and were double. The hail
broke both thicknesses, and tore the cur
tains into shreds. The wooden shutters
too were smashed, and many of the mir
rors were broken by the flying stones.
The deck .lights'-on the top OF the cars
met the same fate The dome of the
engine was denied as lift had been pounded
with heavy weight, and the woodwork on
the south side of the car was plowed up as
If some one had struck il all over with
sliding blows from "A hammer During
the continuance of this terrific cannonade,
which lasted fully twenty minutes, the
excitement and fear among the passengers
ran very high. Several ladies tainted, and
one lady, Mrs Earle, wife ofthe Mountain
Division Superintendent of the road, went
into spasms, from which she did not
recover for over an hour after the cessation
ofthe storm. Several persons sitting on the
south side of the cars were more or less
injured about the head and face.
The mating of the cars was hung up at
the broken windows after the storm ahat-
ed, and the train then proceeded on its
way. On arriving at Grand Island the
windows were timed over the whole
length of the train, and in that condition
il arrived here last night The train Is Il
total wreck" and has been sent 10 the
shops for repairs
The damage will amount 10 two or three
thousand dollars. From al accounts we
are safe in saying that the storm equaled,
if not excelled, the recent heavy hail,storm
that gave Omaha lively bombardment.-

Personal AND LITERARY.

The health of Robert Dale Owen is

are now entertained that he will recover
his reason.

Who says that wives do not mold the
actions of husbands Nellie Sartoris has

And now they have found out that
Gutenberg, the inventor of printing, was
tried a, Mayence in 1922 for the assassina-
ton of his uncle, and only acquitted after
a long Imprisonment. Thus the art pre-
sentative is made to perpetuate knowl-
edge OF his badness as well as his genius.
The Pittsfield (Mass) Eagle tells OF a
directory canvasser who stuck his head
into Senator Dawes Office, the other day,
and asked: "What business is carried on
here sirs'' The Senator, looking up from
his law-book, replied: Writing recon-
mendations for Office" and resumed his
work
Margaret Foley, the American sculp-
tress in Rome, was once employed IN
Lowell factory. One day the overseer,
Walter Wright. discovered her whiting
an acorn out of chalk. He stopped and
asked where her model was. . In my
head was her reply. Then this is no
place for you," said Mr. Wright. He
persuaded her to leave the factory and
let him send her to school. In that way
she received her start.

born on the day that President Lincoln's
proclamation of emancipation was issued
and her eccentric father in burst of pa
triotism made his little babe living
chronicle of the great event.
The Brooklyn Union says: Duncan,
Sherman & Co. have used up their whole
capital in fashionable living. The head
of the house, William Butler Duncan, has
spent not less than $4,000 per year; his
two partners have helped the doubling OF
that sum. This and other demands OF
fashion have in ten years called on this
house for an outlay of over $4,000, 600

riotous when il comes out OF innocent

been undertaken by such an extremely

AMI for few seconds after his pertinent
remark about Philadelphia, he might have
guessed that something was wrong. For

ton.
The next Gay, Saturday last, three furni.
ture cars made their appearance on the
scene, and as every detail of the moving
had been left to Nina, her father being at
work, she instructed the drivers how TO
load and where TO carry their goods. Be-
fore ten O'Clock they were in the depot of
| one of the railroads leading from this city,
and shipping receipt for them was neat
ly folded in Mina's pocket book, together
with ticket for Philadelphia, to which
place she went by the first train after
shipping the goods, but not until she had
written note explaining everything to
her father. On her arrival in Philadel-
phia she was met by her lover, who had
already procured license, and in an hour
afterward the two were man and wife.

surprise may be imagined upon discover
ing that not a single article had arrived.
Wondering what could be the matter, he
hurried to Capitol Hill only to find that
the house was as empty as the one he had
left. Thinking that Nina had made
mistake, by moving into the
| wrong house, he resolved to hunt
up the furniture-car men and ascertain
from them where the things were After
considerable trouble he succeeded in find
| ing them, and then learned that the goods
had been shipped TO Philadelphia. The
whole thing then dawned upon him, and
for few minutes he solaced himself by
swearing in a fashion that would have
shamed Turk. Yesterday when he re-
ceived the letter from his daughter in
| forming him why she had taken the step,
and telling him that he might keep the
| house if he intended TO make fuss about
| it, he swore some more, but later in the
day he came to the conclusion that it
would be wise to smooth the thing over,
and consequently most of his downtown
friends now labor under the impression
that Nina left with the housekeeping arti-
Giles with the full knowledge and consent
of her father The Capitol Hill neigh
