The Followers Of Christ.

The Christian Union says: "We call
ourselves followers of Christ. He went
out into the highways and hedges, preach
ed in, the streets and lanes and on the
hillsides; brought the harlots and drunk
ards about him; mingled with publicans
and sinners; left the ninety and-nine in
the fold to 60 into the wilderness after
the one that had strayed away passed
by all the homes Of priests in Jericho to
be a guest ofthe half-heathen Zaccheus.
When we gather in our aesthetic church,
es, pay from 500 to $1,000 year for fifty
sacred concerts, accompanying as many
sacred orations, and delectate ourselves
with the dim religious light Of an exquis-
itely decorated and Enormously warmed
and carpeted and cushioned church, and

Christian church and keepall others out,

TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

Two Cars with Their Loads of Human Be
ings Overturned and Dragged Along the
| Track of the Louisville & Nashville Air
| Line Road Near St. Louis-Upwards of
| Sixty Persons Seriously Injured, Some
Probably Fatally.
| ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. %. =
The morning through train on the Air
Line from Louisville to this city, met with
a serious accident. The train had passed
Belleville, and was within five or six miles
Oh East st. Louis, when broken rail on
the track threw the two last coaches, that
Is the passenger coach and the sleeper,
Louisville, from the track. The train was
running at the rate of thirty-five miles an
hour, and the two coaches were upset and
dragged some distance on the ground, when
the coupling parted and they were de-
tached from the forward part of the train.
Both coaches were full of passengers, and
tho scenes presented Immediately af-
ter the accident were terrible in
the extreme. The passengers were
thrown violently forward and to thu
side of the coaches, and were massed in a
confused heap of mangled, bruised and
bleeding men, women and children. The
interior fixtures of the coaches were broken
md torn to pieces by the violence of the
fall and served only to wound the unfor-
tunate people in the cars. The toward part
of the train was backed to the spot as soon
as the accident was discovered, and the
work of extricating the wounded was
promptly and efficiently undertaken by the
railroad employees and the uninjured passen-
gers. Scarcely an occupant of either one of
the coaches escaped without cuts
and bruises, but the number of IA
talities was so small as to be al
most miraculous. The cars were literally
covered with blood, which was flowing pro-
fusely from cuts, and it was at first thought
that the loss of life was very great. So far
ns Learned, only one person, a gentleman
from Providence named Anthony, was IA
tally injured. His skull was crushed and
cut so badly as to make his recovery almost
impossible, The wounded were brought at
once TO this city and medical aid was sum-
nToned. A brakeman had his leg broken,
several passengers were injured internally
nnd many others were cut and bruised in a
terrible manner.
1t is impossible to tell the full extent of
the fatalities at this writing, but report
states that there will lie a large number. At
least sixty people suffered injuries of vari-
nus kinds and more or less severe in the !
wrecling of the coaches. One woman,
whose name could not be learned, had her |
scalp torn almost entirely from her head !
The number of people with broken bones |
and cuts makes up a record of heartrend- |
ing suffering. Fortunately most of the !
children were taken from the debris with |
only Slight injuries. As one passenger re-
marked, it was simply wonderful that SO |
many escaped immediate death.
