Ing about 9 o'clock, aS John Mills,
freight conductor in the employ Of the
B. ( o. railroad, was engaged In tighten
ing the brake on 4 car at the stock yards
ne wheel slipped of the shaft and he fell
10 the track In front Of the car, which
passed over bis stomach, mangling him
horribly, and producing injuries which
resulted in his death almost instan-
taneousIy. Mr.. Mills was young man,
and had buried his only child Just two
weeks before the sud accident. His wife
was in very delicate health, and IL is
feared that the shock Of this second awful
bereavement will affect her seriously.
It Is currently reported and believed
that Bray, the rayisher Of Mr.. Philips lit

The excitement was intense, but II the
report was true the villain succeeded in
again escaping before apprehended.

entertained by many that only ministers
OF the gospel were to go out into the

Court meets again on Saturday next and
it is understood that final action will
then be reached in the matter of the

from the Court House inclosure, has
been adopted by the Court. This was
all right as regards the miserable briu-

which "lays over" and dwarfs into posi-

ayers of dishonest applications of the
bank funds and besought investigation
end redress. Their appeals were treated
with indifference or contempt and it was
only after the advent Of the democrats
to power in Congress that the complaints
of the defencelcss depositors were ia
ken up and considered, but, unharrily,
all the money had been then stolen and
the best the democrats could do, thew
did. they told Sambo who the thieves
were and he now finds out, just little
too late, that the ''arrow which has
pierced him was feathercd from his own

thrown away, but then, it 'hadn' ought
to be.
