An Accident by the Bursting OF a
torpedo.

ITopeka Commonwealth, IL
On Wednesday Charles Clark, telegraph
repairer on the Kansas Pacific road, was in
jured by the bursting of a railway torpedo.
He found the torpedo, which is used as Sig
nal, among the tools in his box, and noticed
that 1t was cracked, and sought TO learn
whether 1t was stiI good. His first attempt
of throwing IL on the rail with all MS force,
failed to giva him the desired Knowledge,
and he placed 1T carefully on the rail and
then selecting a heavy stone, placed him
self over it, on the platform OF the freight
depot, and threw the stone upon II. The
scheme accomplished all, and more than he
wished. He learned very soon that the tor
pedo was good "a ever when he found II.
and that was q bout all he knew at that time.
After DIR. Early had been summoned and
he regained consciousness, ne was aware that
he had been injured by piece of the metal,
which struck MIN on the scalp and made
a sore wound. He bled profuseiy, and DR..
Early says had the wound been trlfe lower
IL would have been fatal. His con ItiOn was
much improved yesterday.

TO The Editor Of The Commonwealth.
SIR: LAST month, Private Chas. i. Pay.
berg, general service clerk in my office,
was tried by court martial TOR an attempt to
blackmail Cadet. and on the 9Th Inst. his
sentence was promulgated in General Orders
from these headquarters, which was to be
dishonorably discharged from the service +: TO
forfeit all pay and allowances due or TO be-
come due and TO be confined for TWO years
at hard labor in the Leavenworth military
prison.
Your correspondent in Chicago with pecu
liar obliquity and the utter disregard for ac-
racy, puts my name in the Place of Payberg's
and your paper o; the 10th inst, containes the
enclosed dispatch from that city,
AS have n number of friends in Kansas
and elsewhere, who may see your paper,
whose sood opinions l value, 1 place the
matter before you for such correction and
orlende as Is possible, and rs the case deserves.
U. course the whole wrong can never be
sradlcated or atoned for
Yours, very truly but Indignantly,

discharged, stripped of All pay, due and COM
ing die, and sentenced 10 two years inlpris.
onment in the military prison at Fort Leav-
enworth.
This came to us by telegraph, ami we PEE
sumo it was in the same way In all papers in
our Association.
Col. wherry says truly, that a correction
never reaches all who saw the original DIS
patch.
a lie may be tod about person and de-
MED the next moment, and yet it Will keep
on its travels, gathering force as 1t goes. The
dispatch in question, probably started origi-
nally at West Point, for New York; was
there repeated to Chicago, then TO st. Louis
and then TO us. 1t probably started right,
but got changed at some point on its way to
US. Knowing Col. WherTy, and knowing
that IL could not under any probable cirCum-
stance mean him, AS he is not a cadet, IL we
had noticed at the time. we should have
known IL was an error Telegraph comes in
the night, and quite probably THIS came near
morning. The proof was read by the fore
man, who is not supposed 10 know where
there Is an error of this kind.

Cat arrh al
pa SO N

Wei De Meyers Treatise on Ca
tarrh, explains the following important facts:
l. That Catarrhal Colds become a
poisonous infection, at first local, and
finally constitutional.
2. That, being constitutional, the infection
is beyond tho reach Of mere local
remedies.
8. That Impurities in the nostrils. are
necessarily swallowed into the stomach
and inhaled into the lungs, thus poison
ing the Digestive, Respiratory and Genito-
urinary organs.
4. That Catarrhal virus follows tho
mucous membrane and causes Deafness,
Dyspepsia, Chronic Diarrhea, Bronchitis,
Leucorrhea. and Consumption
5. That Smokes, Douches, Limitations,
and Insoluble Snufs, cannot possibly
remove infectious Inflammation from the or
gans named.
6. That an antidote for Catarrh must
possess an inoculative affinity for, and the
quality Of being absorbed by, the puruient
mucous wherever located.
Based upon these plain theories,
DR.. Wei De Meyers Catarrh Cure
has proved to be infallible. 1t not only re.
Eeves, it cures Catarrh at any stage.
