Crushed Beneath n Freight Train

Yesterday mornings Kansas City Journal
says that Washington George, a colored man
recently from shelbyville, KY, while on his
way To Lawrence, on Tuesday night about ii
O'Clock, attempted to board freight train No.
Z, on the Kansas Parific, while in motion, a
short distance from Tiblow. In making the
attempt his foot slipped, the upper portion
of his body was thrown violently against the
car, and his head cut ,verelv. His legs were
drawn under the wheels, which run over his
right leg between the ankle and knee, crush
ing the bones TO pieces, and also smashing
his left heel. 1he poor man remained on the
spot all night, suffering te ribly, aud was not
discovered until the east-bound passenger
train came along yesterday morning, when
he was picked up and carried to Armstrong,
from whence he was carried to wyandotte
on a special train. On arriving he was re-
moved 10 the county Jail, and in the after
noon had his right kg amputatei at the
knee. Every care has been taken of the un-
fortunate man, but his recovery is doubtful.

Changing the Names of the Streets Of
Paris.

1t il imprudent for Parisians to 20 out OF
town Saturday afternoon, to be absent over
Sunday, lest the names of 30 many streets
their return, lose their way. The streets
of the French capital are continually alter
ing their titles, which vary with the form
of government. Persons who have been
absent from the city few years can hardly
recognize once familiar quarters, on revis-
itipg it, on account OF the revolution in
nomenclature which greet them at every
turn. The designation of thoroughfares
depends on the order Of politics prevalent
at the time. Within few days, the Mu-
nicIpality of Paris has decided to change
Rue St. Arnaud and Rue Abbatucci to Rue
Lincoln and Rue Washington, owing, of
course, TO the present performance Of the
Republic. St. Arnaud and Abbatucci were
identified with Louis Napoleon and Imper-
ialism, and their memories are obnoX-
ious, therefore, to the mass of the people.
II the Empire should be restored-fortun-
ately, not probable-the titles Of the streets
would, in all probability be changed back
When the great revolution Of 1889 swept
over the land, most of the streets of the
capital were renamed. Napoleon /, hav.
ing been declared Emperor, they were chris-
tened afresh after the events and exploits
he had been identified with. The return oil
the monarchy cancelled the imperial
names, which came back With Louis Napo
leon. The Frensh believe profoundly in
nominalism. They regard names as things
They think that, if they change those
these will cease to exist, and it seems = 1

County, Kansas, a distance of % miles, are

COnceding the One Important Point.


The proceedings Of the Mississippi VAL
ley Labor Convention are instructive. In
the first place, it is significant fact tina,
the colored delegates who were in the ma
jority, took no part in the business of the
convention. They assumed that they were
there to hear what the whites had to offer
az Inducements TO them to remain at home.
Their attitude was that of men with griev-
ances, who proposed to hear what was Of
fered in the way Of redress, and to remain
on the plantations if the guarantees for the
future were satisfactory, and otherwise to
try and better tLeir conditions by emigrat-
ing. 1t is also significant fact that the
white delegates ac9uiesced in this view.
and proceeded accordingly. This amounted
to an assumption on the one side and an
admission on the other that there were
grievances, and that redress could ressona-
bly, be asked and granted.

In an action to recover damages from q
railroad company for the killing of two
hogs In a town where hogs are not permitted
TO run at large, and the findings of fact show
tnat they were kept In an enclosed field,
surrounded by a hog tight fence; that the
company constructed and operated its line
of road through the field; that the hogs were
killed within the limits of the field by the
engine and trains of the company in the op-
Grafton of the road, and that the road was
not inclosed with a fence TO prevent the an
imals from getting on the road; Held, That
tain q hog proof fence in SAID township, and
as the construction of a lawful fence would
