indianapolis Journal: A Wabash Off
cal who was in the city Saturday stated
that the management had under contem-
plation the relaying the entire main line
with new steel rails weighing sixty-seven
pounds to the yard. The present track is
laid with steel weighing sixty pounds to
the yard and although they paid the high
est price for these rails, they prove to be
very inferior quality. He states that in
running from Peru to Lagro, forty miles,
one day last eek, the train he was on
was tagged for broken rails six times.
One piece, six feet in length, broke into
sixty-seven pieces, and Superintendent
Stevens ordersed the slivers boxed and
sent to the mill which made the rail, that
they might see its quality. Section men
are patroling the track day and night, and
the company is doing. all in their power
to prevent accidents.

The VOlks.foSt.

The rain of Monday night interfersd
somewhat with the attendance at tht
Volks-fest in the early part ofyesterday
everything being wet and the roads
leading to Scheutzen Park being
muddy, but as the day wore on the
ground gradually dried, and hacks
again were in demand. BY noon there
was good attendance and the after
noon arrivals added to the number
Everybody seemed to enjoy themselves
in their own way. The dancing pa
vilion was largely patronized and the
bars a little too much 80.
There seemed to be an absence of the
athletic sports characteristic of the
Germans, even the rifle range being
tenantless. A wheelbarrow race afford.
ed considerable amusement. The
prize was 81, and four stout Teutons
entered their names for the race. j.
+. Scheu acted as starting Judge and
at the word of command the blind
folded racers made break for the goal.
The crowd yelled and cheered and on
the racers flew.
Two of them had a clean track, but
the other two came together, one ofthem
pitching headlong over his one wheeled
vehicle, skinning shin by the opera
ton. The other racer left him rubbing
his shin, and picking up his barrow
shafts hurried on out to the end con-
siderably behind the two in advance.
The fouled racer grew very indignant
at the laughter of the crowd, and wanted
to demolsh the man who toppled him
over, but before he got an opportunity
to do 80 he got in a good humor, and
laughed heartily at his misfortune.
Several similar races were run.
The mauling machine was largely pa
trouized, and the wheel of fortune was
kept spinning around AT a lively rate
all day. The "fying Jennie" present
ed unusual attractions, and expert rid
ers exhibited the rings they had captur-
ed with nOnchalant air of triumph. A
minstrel troupe afforded considerable
amusement. and the saur-kraut and
pretzel stalls did II lively business.
New and more amusing sports are
promised for to-day.

If Lieutenant Greedy reaches Uperna.

A Caution to Wives.

Falsehood is one Ct the gravest crimes

cies, for not only does it corrupt and
ultimately destroy the individual, but
ditfuses around noxous vapor that

its destructive qualities In woman
it is so repulsive that the wife who
outrages this law of her nature debases
her mind, destroys her husbands con-
tidence in her integrity, and in time
become so contemplate in his eyes that
his affection totally disappears. "Can
the husband" it is asked, lever look

Panic Among Prison ners,

| ST. LOUIS, September 18.-Georgt
Breckenridge's Phoenix planning mill
a large fourstory brick building on tht
corner of Spruce and Twelfth streets
took fire at $50 p. M, and in an houl
its contents, valued at $lS0,0O0, on
which there is an insurance of $50, 600
were totally destoyed. Across Spruce
street stands the southern wall Of the
city Jail, where during the progress OF
the fire panic of extraordinary nature
took place among the prisoners, nearly
two hundred in number.
The roof of the Jail consists mainly
of monster skylight, through whose
panes the earliest light of the fire
showed plainly. Suddenly shower
of sparks fell upon the skylight, and
the roof of the burning building fall
ing in at this time the stream of light
filled the whole Jail and almost seemed
to justify the cry which went up from
the female prisoners that the Jail was
on fire and that they would be burned
alive unless released.
The jailer did his best to quiet their
fears, but part Of the fence catching
fire at this juncture the engines played
upon it and the well-understood sound
was accepted by the prisoners as a
proof that they were indeed locked up
In a burning building. Then ensued .
panic which battles description. The
women compile ely lost their self. control
rushing wildly about In their cells and
begging piteously to be taken to place
of safety. Some of them falling upon
their knees and stretching their arms
through the bar spaces clasped hands
and prayed the jailer to open the cell
doors
The men were hardly less panic
stricken, and the cry which the whole
body of prisoners net up and maintained
for several minutes was appalling. At
one moment 1t seemed to the jailer as If
the Jail was actually threatened, and he
and his deputies began to take neces.
sary precautions for removal Of his
prisoners without the loss of any of
them, and when this was seen the
clamor, which had subsidized for few
moments, broke out again, with more
vigor than ever. All efforts to bring
the thoroughly terrified prisoners into
subsection were unavailing, and 1t was
only when they were physically unable
to sustain vocal exertion that they de-
sisted. The extraordinary scene was
almost an identical repetition of the one
which took place when the same mill
was burned down year ago.

hearing until this morning.
The Grand Jury came In, and afte
making their report, they and the othe
Jurors were discharged until this morn
ing. At half half past Ave O'Clock Rich
ard Spittal was brought into Court be
tween two bailiffs, carrying the ominoul
black and red slaves.
He IL very respectable looking
yonng man, below the medium heigth
somewhat pale from his imprison
ment, and about the last person ont
would take for criminal. There wa.
an almost brAathlsss silence when
Clerk Cochran said, " Richard Spittal,
stand up and raise your right hand"
The prisoner obeyed, and the long In
dictment charging him with the mur.
der Of George Christopheren was read Ia
him In solemn manner. At the con-
clusion the clerk asked him" How say
you, Richard Spittal. are you guilty in
manner and form as indicted, or not
guilty ?"
During the reading William G..
Whiteley, Esq, one Of the counsel for
the prisoner, stood leaning on the front
VI luo uOCh ClUbc W ulb CIl00J, anu
when the Clerk had concluded he In
structed him to answer "not guilty" !"
which he did in firm voice.
Clerk Cochran then asked the usual
question: How will you be tried 2"
and upon Spittal answering by God and
my country responded, land may God
give you a safe deliverance. The
prisoner was then taken from the room
and the Court directed the Crier to ad
journ until 10 o'clock this morning.
just previous to the adjournment,
States Attorney Gray Informed Mr..
Whiteley that he proposed to try the
case on next Friday, and Mr.. Whiteley
said he would be ready If he was able
to have his witnesses present. 1t is
scarcely probable that the case will be
reached before next week, AZ the rules
in the Water Commission are made re-
turnable on Thursday, and no doubt
all that day and part Of tue next will
be consumed in argument.
