RAILROAD COLLISION.
Four Locomotives Smashed-A Num-
Der of Train Men Injured.

Shortly after daylight on Monday
morning two freight trains, each drawn
by two locomotives, one a special bound
north and the other the regular coming
north, attempted to pass each other on
the same track, short distance this
side of tunnel No. l, near Caliente. The
result was four locomotives smashed to
smithereens. One of the engines eX-
ploded and was literally torn into shreds,
the only recognizable portions left being
the driving and some of the truck
wheels.
While number of the train hands
were severely hurt, none, fortunately,
were killed. We are indebted to Mr..
John A. West, Mail Route Agent, who
came down yesterday morning, for the
following list of those injured Frank
Peterson, conductor, knee-cap fractured
andiinjured in breast; M. Buckley, engi-
ueer internally, serious; brakesman,
name unknown, seriously hurt; c.. G..
Knoots, engineer, arm hurt; Joe Co.
burn, boss carpenter, who was riding on
one of the trains, leg badly broken.
The passenger train which arrived
here Monday morning, came through
the tunnel just before the accident.
Yesterdays train was detained about
two hours, waiting for the debris to be
cleared away. We have been unable to
learn the amount of damage done to the
freight cars, the broken cars having
been cleared away before the down
train arrived at that point.

States mere boy, and starting out in
life on a farm near Philadelphia, Mr..
Spence as farmer, miner, pharmaceut-

honor upon the country from which he
sprang and upon his adopted State.
Wherever known, be it in Nevada, Santa

he is held in the highest esteem for
amiable personal qualities, unimpeached

calling before he can hope to secure a

no body of men in the world stands
higher, and deservedly so, than the Off
GERS of the American Navy.
Did time permit, we would recount
the heroic deeds of daring performed by
the navy from the time OF John Paul
Jones to that of Farragut, and which
have become part of the history of our
country, with which every school boy
should be acquainted.
May our children in the future, with
the same confidence that our sires have
in the past, trust the rights of the people
and the glory and honor of the old flag
to the protection and safe-keeping of the
Army and Navy, and be ever ready and
proud to respond with three cheers for
the red, white and blue.

powder with alum in it tried to insure

DECORATION DAY.
Imposing Ceremonies-The Graves of
the Patriot Dead Embowered in
Floral Offerings = Their Praises
Sung in Song and Oratory.

Yesterday will be long remembered in
the annals of Decoration days. Early
in the morning throngs arrived from the
country and by noon the streets were
crowded with expectant visitors. Flow
ers were in almost every hand and our
citizens We'd with each other in their eff
forts to honor the dead soldiers. State
officers, the judiciary and distinguished
generals were in the procession. The
old, weather-beaten Mexican War Vet
Grams fraternized with the younger sol
diers of the late war. The firemen were
out in force to do honor to their dead
companions, who had fought lead as
well as fire. 1t was an imposing pageant
and to the dirges of the bands marched
slowly to the city of the dead. On ar
irving at the cemetery the work of dec.
Grafton commenced, and never was q
labor of love more feelingly executed.
Soon the cemetery was dotted with bou-
quots, wreaths and elegant floral offer
ings, and then the return march was re-
sumed, the roses telling the story of af-
lection and the cypress that of remem-
brance.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1882-05-31
AT THE GRAVES.

On arriving at the cemetery the pro-
cession broke ranks, and the decorations
at once commenced. In little while
the scene was one of rare floral beauty
A number of private graves were also
decorated by friends, and the occasion,
taken altogether, was suggestive of sad,
kind remembrance.
The procession then reformed and
marched to Turnverein Hall, where the
literary exercises completed the cere-
monies of the day.

The religious census OF Victoria,
in which every one has been at liber-
ty to enter his religion in any man
nor which best pleased his fancy, IS
a very curious document. OfS62,346
persons, very nearly SOC, 900 4. e.,
299, 542) return themselves as belong
ing to the Church of England, near
ly 100000 (moro exactly, 197,15O
as Roman Catholics, considerably
over 100 900 as Presbyterians of
some shade or other and nearly the
same number as McthOdists of some
shade or other; while of the other
Protestant sects none much exceed
2O,00O.-about the number of Bap-
tists,-thc Independents falling in
numbers slightly below the Baptlsts.
Eleven thousand are returned as
Pagans. But the curious thing is
the number Of fancy religions. There
is one Borrowite, one Millerite, n
Walkerite, one Colensoite, one who
returns himself as a "Silent Admir-
er," one as a Theosophist, and five
who bclongto the Church of Eli
Sands. There are twenty who de-
clare that they have "No Church at
present, no creed" three who call
themselves Saved sinners" one who,
is a "believer in parts of the Bible"
two who call themselves 's.neutrals,p
and three who state their religion as
&c. s. d." Probably a much greater
number might have declared them
selves adherents of these last two
creeds, had Victorian candour been as
great as Victorian liberty.

The COURAGE at D%unecht,' the
theft Of the body of the late Earl of
Crawford, has been explained, though
in an imperfect way. Charles Sou
tar, a discharged rat-catcher on the
estate, has from the first limited at u
knowledge of the secret, and last
week he was brought to trial. 1t
was proved that he vas at Danecht
when the body disappeared, that he
knew where it was, and that he
wrote letters saving he could tell, IT
he were rewarded. He himself id
mitted that he had seen the crime
committed, and attributed his w
silence to the fear of the earned
men" who removed the body. The
jury disbcIicvcd his story, and held
him guilty OF participation IN the OF
fence, and the Judge condemned him
to five years penal servitude. Con-
sIdcring the way decent men steal
mummies for gain, and the way we
punish aggravated assaults, that is a
frichtluIly severe, sentence; but 1t
viii put a stop to the kidnapping OF
corrscs, and Soutar will probably
now tell the truth. lie must have
had assistance il removing the body,
and it is improbable that he was the
principal in the affair, which suggests
a kconcr brain and a stronger mo-
tive. The resurrection men, we be-
liove, never acted singly, partly from
the great difficulty OF carrying abo-
dy, and partly, we suspect, from a
lingering supcr8titiOus fear,

politics. The miners of Montceau,
near Macon, oppressed, as they
thought, by a pious manager, attack
ed the church and other buildings,
and the images of the Virgin, with
dynamite. They were arrested, and
probably implicated others, whose
arrest in turn revealed the existence
of a secret society, pledged to dos
troy order and the bourgeoisie and
to produce anarchy, by the use of
dynamite, Affiliated committees were
found to exist in Lyons, where the
dining-room of a restaurant has just
been blown up; and in Paris, where
letters threatening explosions have
been handed to the police; and the
central committee is declared to be
sitting in st. Sauveur, Geneva, and
TO be allied to the Russian Nihllists.
The latter story seems unlikely, but
there may be darker Committees be-
hind the Nihilists, men at war both
with property and religion all over
the world. The police are continu-
ing their Investigations, and a panic
is setting in in Paris and Lyons which
bodies no good to Geneva, as swift
zerland, if threatened for %harbouring
violent anarchists, would not be pro.
tected by Germany. As yet, the
evidence is imperfect, and the stories
are wild but the existence Of dream
ers who think the road to a happier
future lies through murder and de-
struction IS, unhnppfly, too well
proved. The discovery of dynamite
seems to have unsettled dreamy
brains all over the world, and to have
intoxicated men already half delirious
with the passion of pity, with a sense
Of unexpected power. They feel as
if they welded the lightning, the
most dangerous of temptations Tor
human beings.

Deep anxiety has been felt as to the
fate of Mr., Palmer, the learned Pro
lessor of Arabic, best known, per
hapS, to our readers as the author Of
a splendid monograph upon Iaroun
eli Raschid. lie was employed by
Government to deal with the Bedouin
tribrs who, during the war, threaten
ed the Canal and on August 10Th,
he squitted Suez, in company with
Lieutenant C%harrington, R.N., and
Captain Gill, r. f., who had orders
to cut the telegraph wires into Ara
bia. They marched out towards
GAIA, and have never been seen since.
1t was believed they had been muir

in gold Mr.. Palmer had with him
and on Thursday intelligence was re-
ceiyed from Colonel Warren, employ
ed at Suez, which, as regards Cap
tain Gill and Lieutenant Charrington,
appears conclusive. Relics had been
found belonging to them which show
ed they had been murdered by the
Bedouins. Nothing, however, has
been found belonging to Mr.. Palmer,
and it is possible that, with his perfect
knowledge of Arabic, he may have
been spared. The Times correspon-
dent, however, afirms, apparently on
later authority from Colonel Warren,
that all three were killed by order
of the Governor of Max, who offered
them the alternative of jumping off

All tie semi-oticiaI papers in Paris
assert that the President viii proba-

is intended to tell them that their
Queen is not Queen Of Madagascar,

if they do, they Will be informed hat
the Queen does not rule the Sakala-
vas, the great S~mi-iudopendent tribe
OF the northeast, that France has
acted only as their protector, and that
size must be accepted as such. 1t Is
scarcely probable that the French
Foreign Office will use language so
crude as this, but it seems certain
that the Sakalavas have been gained,

Government is to use them as mstru-

Vermont Waterman.
Prince Edward, afterWard Duke Of
Kent, and the father Of Queen Vi6to-
ria, passed through Burlington in
February, 1893. He came from Que.
bee, where he had had command of A
regiment. His trip through the coun-
try was accomplished in carryalls and
sleighs; courier had been sent on to
Burlington to prepare for his accom-
mediation. There were then only
seven frame houses in the whole vii
lage, and but one, that of Phineas
LOOMS, large enough to receive so
numerous a party. The Prince ar
rived in the afternoon with thirteen
carryalls and sleighs. and left the third
day before noon. He had with him
two aids and two body guards, q lady
and cook. The lady was to 20 to
New York, and the Prince provided
the sleigh which was to convey her,
with abundance Of fur robes, and
placed large dog at her feet.
A little incident occurred on the
passing of the Prince and the lady
from the house to the sleigh which
illustrates somewhat the character
and personnel Of the Prince. An
awkward but stout young man was
standing in the path. not making room
readily for the party to Advance.
Prince Edward advanced, and taking
him up bodily. set him on one side in
the snow. At this place { Burlington)
he dismissed the teamsters who had
brought him from Canada and engaged
Eve farmers to take him on to Boston.
1t was said by these men that he was
q jolly companion, enjoying the pork
and beans, nut cakes, and cheese.
Among the early settlers of the
town was Colonel Stephen Reyes,
gentleman of the old school, who
wore a cooked hat and kept hotel on
Water street. He proposed to pay his
respects to Prince Edward. and with
several young men of the village made
call in the evening. Colonel Keyes
introduced himself to the Prince, and
then stated that he had brought with
him some young gentlemen of legal
and mercantile pursuits, who wished
to pay their respects to him. They
were severally presented, and the
Prince respectfully bowed to each.
This was apparently the commence
ment of pleasant evenings enter
tainment.
But what was their dismay when
the Prince and his aids very infor.
mally and abruptly retired to their
apartmentsl The Colonel could
not brook this, and in unmeasured
terms vented his indignation, and de-
clared the Prince no gentleman"
