THE PARENT OF INSOMNIA.

The parent of insomnia or wakefulness is
IN nine cases out of ten a dyspeptic stomach.
Good digestion gives sound sleep, indiges-
ton interferes with it. The brain and
stomach sympathize. One Of the promin-
ent symptoms of 4 weak state 0. the gastric
organs is a disturbance of the great nerve
entlepot, the brain. %Invigorate>t the stom-
ach, and you restore equilibrium to the
great centre. A most reliable medicine for
the purpose is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which is far preferable to mineral sedatives
and powerful narcotics which, though they
may tor a time exert a soporfic influence
upon the brain, 500 cease to act. and invar-
iably injure the one of the stomach. The
BitLers, on the contrary, restore activity to
the operations of that all important organ,
and their beneticent Influences reflected in
sound sleep and a tranquil state of the ner-
vous system. A wholesome impetus is like
wise given to the action of the liver and
bowels by its use.

THE WATERPROOF RIOT.
Another Version OF the Outbreak.

New YORK, October II. special from New
Orleans, to-day, says that intense excitement pre-.
walls over the negro riot at Waterproof. One
battalion of infantry and section of artillery lett
for the sc enc at O'Clock this afternoon. Inves.
legation develops the statement that Fairfax, col.
ored candidate for congress in the fifth district
called public meeting at Waterproof
The municipal officers Informed the public that
the rigid quarantine now enforced against yellow
fever would prevent their entering the town. The
negroes assembled at Fairfax house half mile
outside the town limits, and a party of twenty
armed and mounted men was sent to expOsiulate
with them aud endeavor to induce them not to en-
ter the town. Without asking any questions ahd
waiting fol no explanations, the negroes COM
menced firing, killing one man.
Yesterday a skirmish occurred on the louisa
pa side OF the river, between Waterproof and St.
Joseph, in which ten negroes were killed. No de-
tails OF the origin or exact cause of the trouble is
yet known. The friends of Fairfax claim when
the body OF men approached he expected to be
attacked and the friug was justifable.
1t appears by the police records that when he
has served out his present sentence, Kit O'Cou-
nell Will have spent 267 days out of about a year
in the county jail. He has paid $50 in fines dur
ing the same time and has been anaigned before
the municipal court seven times. This is shin
ing record. The other day O'Connell went into a
drug store and asked for cigars. He WAS shown a
box, put three cigars in his pocket and then gave
the box kick, telling the proprietor to take the
change out of that" Kit would make q good
hook for the chain gang.

The Late Railroad Disaster.

BosTON, October II. Investigation into the
Wollaston accident on the old Colony raroat
closed to day. Several witnesses testified thai
they examined the switch after the accident anC
found it unlocked.
Superiutende Kendrlc, testified that if it had
not been for the glare of The headlight on freight
train, switch lights and red lantern swung from
the freight engine would probably have been
sufficient warning TO the excursion tain. and
llartwell might have possible have Thought suffi
Gent warning had been given by them.
lie had made a series of experiments TO ascer-
tain how far signal lights on a switch could be
seen, and found that switch lights could not be
seen while the headlight was burning.
Ilaitwell, conductor of freight train, testified
in his own behalf. Said he supposed excursion
train had arrived 10 Boston. " hen his train was
crossing the main tracks he saw a red light swung
from his engine and the headlight of loco motive
on excursion train. He Immediately ran for the
switch, but before he got to ii excursion train was
on him. Witness thought It the duty Of eng neer
to send fireman out with light, but engineer may
have had other work for fireman, though he did
not notify witness to that effect Witness thought
red light swung from bis engne would stop the
excursion train, and no thought Of failure eutere
his mind.
lie had made no previous enqnry about the
excursion train. The duty OF the brakeman who
was about was to flag the track ahead, and the
track should have been tagged. Witness admit
ted he was direlect in his duty in not having IT
done. Made no enquiries whether fireman had
been sent out or not, nor did he know whether
the danger signals at the switches were set. He
denied he had ever told any one that had he hal
two seconds more he would have had the switch
all right.
llaitwelrs counsel requested the Judge, 10
making up his verdict, to conside that the dan
ger signals were set all right and that had it not
been for the glare OF the locomotive of freight
tram the disaster would have been prevented,
Consequently, howeye: careless liartwell might
