Cars Overturned by n Cyclone.

BY the wrecking OF the Chicago, Milwau-

injured seriously and twenty-one more or

express messenger, was badly hurt about
the head, and at last reports was still I'M

hurt internally and is in a critical condition
Conductor Mccall says:
The first warning l had Of any 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: M, and it had been raining heavily
for some time. We had been running on
JUL 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
Bic traln, causing the cars to IA tile as though
they were mere paper toys. Then another
and more powerful wind struck us and in less
than moment the cars 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. In failing struck
on my left face laying the cheek bone wide
open and bruising my right arm. Where
we went off, the track is almost level with
the prairie. The two coaches, baggage and
mail cars and: tender were throan on. their
sides in the ditch, and the engine was forced

are Express Messenger Scott and Mail Agent

We got the injured ones to the farm houses

American citizens who are too busy
to keep the run of discussion, and who
feel that rights and privileges are Sc
cured to them beyond all question,
under our form of government, may
awake some day to find these rights
most seriously invaded. Under the
specious plea of correcting evils of
municipal government, strong intlu-
enees are already arrayed in favor
of restricting suffrage in cities, on
questions relating to city affairs, by
affixing a property qualification to the
elective franchise, and by creating adj
ditional tests of eligibility to hold
Office. Should this be accomplished
it will be q short step to more compre-
hensive restrictions-an all this in
fragrant disregard of the facts that in
this free country suffrage is based on
manhood and not money. 1t will be
we'll to watch and mark the progress 81
the new political heresy.

THE NEWS SUMMARIZED.
Rosoh's Dolphin Condemned.

New York Special: The board which ex-
amined the Dolphin for Secretary Whitney
handed him its report. Capt. Belknap,
Commander Evans and Mr.. Herman Win
ters don't desire another trial trip to satisfy
them that the ship 10 bad; not one of them
believes her to be seaworthy. The report
says:
The design OF the ship considered AZ dis
patch boat is absurd. She cannot make
speed and she cannot defend herself. She
cannot fire at vessel which she may be
pursuing nor at one from which she may be
flying. The vessel ia SO badly constructed
that slight addition to her load, or q
slight shifting Of it, throws her machinery
out OF line. The absence Of proper braces,
due to faulty design, causes her to vibrate
and her machinery deck to shake
in such way as to raise great doubts as to
her safety as Il sea-going vessel. The con-
tract violates the law which requires fifteen
knots sea speed, and in the opinion Of the
board, the government is not bound to &C.
cept the vessel, even il the contract is COM
piled with, on the ground that the govern
ment cannot be bound by the illegal acts OF
subordinates.

Interesting scene in . Texan Court.

A Fight occurred in the district court room
at Fort WORTH Texas, which came near re.
sulting fatally. Young Stevens was on
trial for the murder OF DR.. Wallace at
Mansfield. Henry Furman, leading counsel
Tor the defense, became embroiled in a
controversy with County Attorney Bowlin.
They finally came to blows. The court
room was quickly emptied. Both men
were undoubtedly armed and each one
waiting for the other to draw. In the

the Judge commanded the jury to arise and

ton 32 psr cent. are congressman and Sc

Stray bullets whistle here and there and

Up comes the fiddle and out pulls

Where is the Society of the Suppress

christians Of Brookville. who would be
horritied to see their children reading a

garlty and profanity as the above is
calculated to inspire love for the true,
the good and beautiful. simply because
it is written by minister? Just as
