speak to her. As she had particular rea-
sons for not keeping this noble parsonage
waiting, she came out Immediately, in
dressing-gown and slippers, but finding
herself in the presence of three unknown
persons, for the commissaire was accom-.
panied by two policemen, she shrieked
with terror, and out rushed the lover,
armed with revolver, and dressed in
the light and airy fashion popular among
the islands of the South Pacific. The
Aagrans delictum was established; the
injured wife has gone home to her
mother, and will Immediately plead for
a separation from her inconstant spouse.

"A LIE REF y IEDs
To the Editor aj The Tribune.
NEW YORK, July 22--Among the baseball
notes in the New York Clipper Of July 10 ap-
pears statement that two of the present Chi
cago nine we're expelled from local New York
club for "crookedness," and, as none other
than Messrs- Larkin and Hanainson can be
meant, and this assertion from fossil base
ball tramp Is calculated to mar the welEmer-
tied reputation OF those deserving young play
ers, wish to say few words on the subject.
Mr.. Larkin played under me in 1876 in the
A1askas Of this city, the only New YORK club
either Of them ever played NTH, and I will pos
ltirely state that be meyer vas expelled. and
more, he never was accused Of wrong-dotngg,
and only left the club on its disbandment in
October Of that year. On the contrary, he has
since been an honorary member OF our club,
md played In several games With us when at
home.
AS for Frank Hankiuson, be has PLAYED in
our club, / may say, from childhood until 1877,
when he left the club of his boyhood, where he
was only hcld by ties Of friendship, TO do better
financially. lie was thereupon expelled
through jealousy and without shadow Of JUS
tice, but was almost Immediately reinstated and
honorably released. The esteem he is held in
by his former associates can be judged from
tie fact that the Alaskas presented him with
the silver ball won bS them in a tournament on
the Union Ground, Brooklyn, last year.

How 1t Should Be Done.
To The Editor Of The Tti6un<-
CHICAGO, July 25.-I have read the article in
your paper of Sunday, the Goth inst, on the
subject OF stfeet-pavng, ia which you advocate
the method Of oVerlaying the ground-surface,
when properly prepared, with flags OF stone, on
which the blocks Of wood are to rest.
To this allow me to offer an amendment:
that, in place OF the stone flags, We substitute
bed OF concrete. Years ago advocated,
through the medium Of your columns, the use
of layer OF concrete between the earth and
wooden blocks; but, as far as an aware, it re-
ceived little or no attention.
This fact does not il my degree invalidate IN
my mind the correctness Of the conclusions: then
advanced in regard to the proper manner OF
paving streets.
Previous to my advent to Chicago, soma
twenty three or more years ago, I had Tor sew
erai years been engaged in the engineering de-
partment In tie construction Of several rail-
WAYS; and there and then became familiar
with the use and great yalue OF concrete In al
most every branch Of construction, especially
for the foundations of buildings and bridges.
But, on my arrival here, found not man
among all the large number OF contemporary
architects who seemed to have any idea Of its
value, or OF its superiority OYER stone for first
time, It was not used here for building
purposes outside Of mr oWn practice.
But, being somewhat aggressive In my DISPOSE
ton, was disposed to crittcise what consd-
cred q want OF constitutional ability. as you
will see by reference to your flies OF some twelve
or fifteen years ago, or Of the time when the
tower and front wall OF the Unitarian Church
on. Wabash avenue were taken down because
the architect had somehow omitted to put
foundation under it. Since then. however, the
scarcely good building built here, or elsewhere
crete as first course in its foundations: and
flags, II used at all. are placed above the con-
crete:
TN soil as soft and flexible Is that underlF-
ing our Citv OF Chicago no competent engineer
or architect should jcopardize his good name bT
attempting to build without it.
It Is we1l-knoWn fact-nr at least one TINT
should be we'll knoHn-that our street-Daving
has generally teen done in MOST unscientifc,
nnmcchanicaI, not to say scaudalous manner.
Those streets which have been raised since the
Great Fire have been filled With all manner Of
rubbish and refuse material, dumped In and
making the bed drm aud substantial, as should
hive been done BY puddl,ng or ranming, or
both; and on the top OF this loose material the
wooden blocks have been set.

Calvin pitched for keeps, and was supported
In the best Of style The only fatal error made
by the Bfscns Is credited to Richardson. He
secured baby hit in the first and ran home on
Wards high throw to Start, the ball bounding
under the free stand and getting lost In the
next Innings Calvin was unable to hit the ball.
Kemmeler dropped 1t, but recovered it, and vas
prompt in sending it to Start, who made

The Train at Chicago.
A THRILLING SCENE

CHICAGO, Oct. 1O.-The news of the terri
BILE disaster at jackson has been the theme
of conversation all day in the city and the
excitement over it increased decidedly to-
night when the train arrived with many of
the wounded. The widest rumors as to the
extent of the disaster were current. The
few kilograms received, and their indefinite
and contradictory information, increased
rather than allayed the anxiety. The offices
of the company were thronged all day
with anxious enquirers for friends,
and Fl. 9. Wentworth, general passenger
agent, did everything in his power to obtain
information as to the condition of the pas
sengers on the train, but outside of that
there was an evident disposition to reserve
news until it came officially. The scene at
the depot at o'clock tonight when the
train arrived was thrilling in the extreme.
The passengers who arrived were for the
most part unable to give any connected &C.
count of the affair, it having been pitch
dark when the accident occurred and most
of the people on the train being asleep.
Rev. Neil McDermond, of Guelph,
Canada, says he was in the third car when
the collision came. The train was going
very fast. The first cars were full of pas
sengers, mostly French Canadians en- route
for the pineries. In his car all but about
twelve were buried in the debris, sixteen be-
ing killed. This Car Jared the worst of any.
Passengers differ as to the number killed,
some putting the number as high as twenty
five or thirty. The wounded are being cared
for here.
