Cars Overturned by a Cyclone.

By the wrecking OF the Chicago, Milwau
kee & St. Paul train, between Sioux Falls
and Sioux City, six OF the passengers were
injured seriously and twenty one more or
less bruised OR disfgured. L. NJ. Scott, the
express messenger, was badly hurt about
the head, and at last reports was still I'M
conscious. Mail Agent Williams was also
hurt internally, and is in a critical condition.
Conductor Mccall says:
The first warning / had OF fanny trouble
coming was the appearance Of a monstrous
black cloud which seemed to envelop the
whole sky and appeared to be appall-
lngly close to the earth. 1t was then about
$50 p. NJ, and it had been raining heavily
for some time. We had been running on
full speed from leaving Elk Point, but as the
wind rose we slowed up some, and when the
squall struck us our speed did not exceed
ten or twelve miles an hour The first
shock we experienced was a heavy Earring,
which was felt clear from stern to stem of
the train, causing the cars to rattle as though
they were mere paper toys Then another
and more powerful wind struck us and in less
than a moment the ears were blown from
the tracks and thrown upon their sides in
the ditch, and found myself struggling be.
tween the seats with a heavy passenger
grabbing me for dear life. Infalling struck
on my left face laying the cheek bone wide
open and bruising my right arm. Where
we went of, the track is almost level with
the prairie. The two coaches, baggage and
mail cars and tender were thrown on their
sides in the ditch and the engine wasforced
from the track but remained standing.
There were about sixty passengers in ali,
including train hands and few section
hands in the forward coach. All were more
or less bruised, but the most serious cases
are Express Messenger Scott and Mail Agent
Williams, who were hurt internally. Two
ladies also received severe scalp wounds
We got the injured ones to the farm houses
near and to McCook by team.

LATEST NEWS SUMMARY.
Gen. Grant Removed from New York.

Gen. Grant Removed from New York.
Gen. Grant has made the journey from
New York to Mount McGregor in safety, and
SO far as the present is concerned the trip
had no apparent effect upon his condition.
Mount McGregor, is on the mountains,
twelve miles from Saratoga. He occupies
there cottage rendered by Drexel the bank
er. It is considered a very healthy loca-
ton.
The journey to McGregor was very fatigu
ing. A dispatch says thatwhen Gen. Grant
left his house in New York he made no
effort to lift his feet at all as he crossed the
sidewalk, but shuffied along as if it required
great strength to move at all, and leaned
heavily upon the thick cane he always car
ries. Speed was the main object OF the en-
gineer and he sent the train rafting at a
mile-a-minute rate almost Immediately.
AS the train passed Gen. Grant made an
effort to speak to DR.. Douglass, who was at
his side, but failed. He seemed disappoint-
ed when he found that he coula cot be I'M
derstood. He closed his eyes and laid back
in his chair as motionless as if hewas dead,
until Saratoga was reached. The shout OF
the crowd in the station aroused him as the
train entered and proceeded slowly up to
where the Mount McGregor train was wait
ing for him.
Gen. Grant stepped from the car unaided,
and declining assistance, grasped the iron
railing of the other, and pulled himself on
to the platform. The journey up the twelve
miles OF mountain road was the most ia
tiguing part OF the whole trip. It was easy
to see, however, that he was beginning to
feel distressed, especially as the heat was
intense. He showed no disposition, how
ever, to let others know OF his trouble,
and when the train finally stopped at
Mount McGregor station he walked
bravely up the incline toward the
house for a hundred feet or more, when he
had to give up and seat himself in chair.
DR.. Douglass remained the entire evening
with Gen. Grant, who, despite fatigue, was
wakeful until 10 o'clock. His throat was
then painted with cocoaine, and he settled
for the night. DR.. Douglas retired to an ad-
joining room though he has rooms at the
hotel, and the nurse was left to watch with
the general.

work. ''The Fundamental Conceps OF Mod

first class in it's department. of thought. It
treats especially the very abstruse subject
OF the relation Of the physical science to the
metaphysical fields of thought, which it is
the aim OF his thesis to prove instead OF
everything, underlie all physics. His book
is anti materialistic, and though Judge
Stallo is rated a nationalist, and possibly
in some quarters an atheist the effect OF
his work is that OF criticism upon bold
materialism, and return toward theism,
or at least toward the doctrine ofthesupre

1t is regarded by many critics as one OF the
ablest metaphysical and scientific works
hitherto written in America. Judge Stalo's
