Terrible Accident.

TIE sad news that Conductor Frank
Wright had been caught between the
cars reached this city early this morn
ing and upon investigation it was found
to be only too true. He started out
with local this morning and got as far
as Alden, where, in coupling the ca
boose to Frisco car the draw head of
the latter slipped over that of the for
mer, pinching him through the body.
He fell onto the trac.l with his left
leg on the rail and the wheels passed
over it. He was brought to this city
and placed in charge of DR.. C. f. Smolt,
the railroad surgeon, who amputated the
leg four inches below the knee. The
extent of his internal injuries can not
yet be determined, but it is hoped that
they are not serious. Although he
tainted when first hurt after he rallied
he showed great deal of grit in bear
ing the terrible ordeal through which
he passed. He is sober, industrious
young man, has lived here about five
years and numbers his friends by the
whole circle Of his acquaintance. With
his strong constitution and the tender
care of a devoted wife and loving par
ents it is hoped that be will be able to
Be around again soon xickersoD Ar

The BAPTIST Church.

The foundation for the new Baptist
Church is now being laid, the work hav-
ing commenced on Monday. Some of
the lumber has been ordered and the
work Of construction will shortly begin.
At meeting of the Baptist church so =,
ciety on Monday night, large number
were in attendance; N. B. Klaine was
called to the chair. Remarks were
made by Elder Collins, L. X. Mcintyre,
H. L. Sitter, A. W. Beadle, J. S. Mar
Gus, and it was agreed that building,
the cost not to exceed $1,000, should
be constructed. Elder Collins was Civ
en- the sole supervision of the work.
From the reputation he has earned, we
believe the Elder will be equal to the
task, and his supervision and manage
ment of this edi6ce will be no exccp-
ton to the success that has attended
him. Elder Collins has built twenty
churches in the fifty years he has en-
gagged in the ministry. 1t was also de-
cided to build a parsonage On the church
lot. These buildings will be ornaments
to the city. They will be located on
the most prominent and picturesque
view of the city, and will stand as mon
uments to the liberality and christian
character of Dodge City. The follow
ing from the Little Rock (Ark } Gazette,
is another testimonial of Elder Collins
successful church building:
From the notice given elsewhere it
will be seen that Elder N. G.. Collins,
the efficient, devoted and popular pas.
tor of the Union Baptist Church, will
at 2:3O next Sunday, preach his fare
we'll sermon: preparatory to leaving our
city to return to Illinois. Elder Col
Inns has since his residence in our city
been active in every good word and
work and leaves as memorial of his
devotedness to his high calling, and as
an ornament to our city, the beautiful
edifce erected mainly through his eff
forts, which is perhaps the most taste
full in construction and finish of any in
our State We would suggest to our
citizens, and hope that the matter will
be borne in mind, that Elder Collins
has for considerable time been bear
ing the burden of work which is at
once an ornament and credit to our city,
and that on the occasion of his farewell
sermon it would be an eminently fitting
thing to remember his past services by
a complimentary donation, and we hope
to have the pleasure of announcing in a
few days that orr liberal hearted clti-
zens did not fail to put our suggestion
into practice, and that Elder Collins
was complimented with such dona-
ton as would enable him to 60 on his
way rejoicing.

The bone industry is an important
one. The four feet of an ordinary OK
will make pint of neatsfoot oil. Not
bone Of an animal is thrown away.
Many cattle shin bones are shipped to
Europe for the making of knife-han-
dies, where they bring $40 per ton.
The thigh bones are the most valuable,
being worth $50 per ton for cutting in
to tooth brush handles. The foreleg
bones are worth $50 per ton, and are
made into collar buttons, parasol han
dies, and jewelry, though sleeps legs
are the staple for parasol handles. The
water in which the bones are boiled is
reduced to glue, the dust which comes
from saving the bones is fed to cattle
and poultry, and all bones that cannot
be used as noted, or for bone black, US
ed in refining the sugar that we eat, are
made into fertilizers, and made to en-
rich the soil. As regards waste. it is
the story of the pig-nothingis lost ex-
cept the squeal.

The new counties on the south have
been attached to Barber county for ju-

LULU HUST OUTDONE.
A Young Son of Hugo Preyor
Gives an Exhibition of
Mystical Powers.

Hugo Preyor has a son Arthur, II
years of age who is a promising rival tc
Lula Hurst. Mr.. Preyor does not be
lieve that Miss Hurst is humbug, and
ga IS that he cannot account for his son {
power. The lad is a slender little fe..-
low, and the father says that he discov
cred his power accidentally while ez-
peri nenting with him as mind-reader.
The lad gave private exhibition to a
small number of gentlemen last even
ing, and really did some wonderful
things, many of them apparently the
work mesmcrism. For instance, the
lad standing with his handsin his peck
cts would be told to take them out. and
his utmost exertions failed to accom-
plish the simple act until his father
said the word. The mind of the faith
err would avert the lad midway in the
act of sitting down, and hold him in
the most ridiculous position
Several Of Miss Hurst specialties
the boy did quite readily, particularly
the "chair' and the billiard cue
tricks.
Mr.. Preyor will take the boy upon
the road in few weeks and exhibit
him as a wonder.
The above is from the Denver Tri-
bunc- Republican. Mr. Preyor intends
giving an exhibition of his boys wonder
full power in this city in few days.

The Rink.

McCarty's opera house and skating
rink was formally opened on Thursday
night. The members Of the Orient
Lodge gave an exhibition of their in
itiatory abilities, the expose being
equal to the performances of amateur
theatricals. This home talent should
not slumber, and we hope 1t will be cul-
tivated for the benefit of our fun-lov,ng
citizens. On Friday night grand ball
took place in the mammoth hall, and on
Saturday night several hundred people,
until late hour, INDUCED in the ele-
giant pastime of roller skating. This
amusement is kept up nightly. The
hall will be used for all kinds of first
class and respectable entertainments
The building is so x 100, and will ac-
commodate hundreds of people.

PEARLETTE NEWS.

We pause to say that still the set
tiers come.
"A new building has been erected
lately at this place.
1t has been threatening rain for sew
eral days past, but has failed thus far.
A road ranch is now in running
order about 2 miles east of old Meade
City.
The postoffice store of Wright 6
Acuff Bros, of Pearlette, are doing a
good business.
Ground is getting very dry, max
ing it bad far farmers who want to turn
over lots of sod this year.
Grass in the draws around on
the prairie is getting quite green. Cat
tie can get along very well now.
We speak for the county seat to
be located at Pearlette. Who dares say
nay? You Fowlerite or Carthageite
speak up if you want to.
Somewhere, and sometime-we
can t find out when-a meeting has
been called in this section to be decided
by the masses where the county seat
shall be.
Prairie fires have been raging late
ly, but no damage done yet that we
have heard Of We think the burning
off of the prairie grass has a tendency
to dry weather-any how, the ground
cannot hold its moisture after being
burned; consequently, grass is much
slower in starting. Is there no way to
prevent this?

Attorney General Bradford passed
through the city on Monday. He in
formed some of our citizens that he in
tended prosecuting violators of the pro-
hibitory law in Dodge City. He said
that if the local officers did not abate
the viclators, he would commence pro-
ceedings early in May. Anticipating
the Attorney Generals action, Sheriff
Sughrue has caused notices to be print
ed, stating that the sale of Intoxicating
liquors must be stopped by the first of
May At the time of the passage of
the amended prohibitory law there were
over dozen saloons in this city. When
the new law went into effect several sa-
looms closed and have remained closed.
Several saloons now remain open in vio-
lation of the law. From the effective
manner in which whisky prosecutions
have been conducted we do not believe
any saloon man in Dodge will wait for
the law action, but will close business
before the Attorney General commenc
es proceedings.

Praise Meetings.

1t is proposed to get up series of
praise meetings, to be held in McCarty s
new opera house and skating rink. Ell
der Collins will preach in the rink on
Sunday night, and these meetings will
be conducted Sunday evenings thereaf
ter. Bands Of music will be present
to enliven the occasion with choice sac
ramental airs, and a religious interest
and enthusiasm created that cannot fail
to do good. The large and capacious
rink will accommodate many people.
seats having been provided, and we be-
lieve the new order of ceremonies will
terd to lend pleasant attraction that
cannot fail to be of benefit morally and
socially. There must be other places
than saloons and bawdy houses TO at
tract young men as well as old men, in
leisure hours, and we believe the rink
affords a long felt want.
