sundays RaiIrood Accidents,

1t would be rather interesting to know
why it is that the number Of railroad ac-
cidents, like the number Of suicides, is
much greater at certain times Of the year
than at others. 1t has been observed that
sometimes a great many suicides will be
reported within very few days, while ct
other times they are reported only oc-
casionally. The same, TO some extent,
appears to be true with respect to rail-
road accidents.
For days not an accident on the rail-
roads that attracts attention appears in
the dispatches, and then will come the re-
port OF several altogether. Is there any
thing in the weather that causes locOmO-
tive engineers, telegraph operators, con-
ductOrs and other employees Of the rail-
roads to be less capable Of attending to
their duties?
On Sunday three accidents were re-
ported. On the Pennsylvania road, on
which an accident rarely occurs, an ex-
press train ran into an immigrant train
near the Hackensack river, New Jersey.
Five persons were killed and a number
wounded.
On the Boston and Lowell railroad, in
New Hampshire, collision occurred in
which three lives were lost and five per-
sons were injured. Tho accounts of both
OF these accidents leave the impression
that there was negligence somewhere.
The third accident was on the Kansas
City, Springfield and Memphis railroad
A train carrying a circus was ditched 81
miles west of Memphis, aad four cars
containing the menagerie were wrecked
/ The cause Of the accident was not stated
in the dispatches.
This is larger list OF accidents than
usually occurs on Sunday, and larger
| perhaps, than will occur again on
that day of the week for q
good while. A very large percent
age Of accidents in which lives are lost
could be avoided, doubtless, by the exer.
else Of greater care. When 1t is remem.
bered, however, that there is limit to
human endurance, and that the burdens
imposed by some roads on their employees
Is more than they can bear, it is a wonder
that accidents do not occur more fire..

Twin sisters at % Years Old.
From The Al5anv Argus.


In the town of Summit, Schoharie county.
are two remarkably old ladies. twins, Of 81
years of age. They were born on Aug. 6, 1871.
in Duchess county. Four years later their
father, Henry Tinklepaugh, removed to the
town OF summit, built log house, and pre-
pared TO spend the remainder OF his DAYS in
that fertile region. Bess and Kate, as the
young lasses were called, soon won the ad-
mlration of the sturdy farmer lads of that
section, and at sweet IS Bess accepted the lot
of William Brace, and settled down TO mar
ried life.
Fifteen years ago she entered her widow
hood after long and happy married life
Her sister, Mrs. Catharine Rider, has re-
spected the memory OF her departed husband
Philip Rider, for IS years, and still Is a beau
tiful old lady or many personal charms. Both
these women are described as prepossessing
ell-preserved, active and in the fun posses
sion Of their mental faculties. Each was the
mother Of seven children. the eldest OF each
family being alive, one al the age of IS, the
other 6S years. Each is said TO be capable Of
walking distance Of miles TO the village
with little apparent effort: they are, on the
whole, the most remarkable twins perhaps Ia
the state. Their parents reached the age OF
10 and 81 years, respectively, and a younger
brother Is still living In sullivan county at
the age Of 81 years.

Pretty much the same kind OF news
about the Balkan trouble is being re
ceiyed from Europe as was received about
the Afghan boundary question. One day
/ the situation presents very warlike ap
pearance, and the next the prospects fol

1t is probable that in the absence o.
anything of reliable character all sorts

plates disturbing the peace OF Europe in
the immediate future.
There is probably more truth in the
statement that Prince Bismarck is deter.
mined to prevent war than there is in
most Of the reports that grow out Of the
Balkan trouble.
While there may be doubr whether or
not the seizure Of Eastern Roumelia by
Prince Alexander, OF Bulgaria, was sug-
gested by one Of the great powers in pur-
suance Of a plan to weaken Turkey, 1t is
pretty certain that If Servia,
Greece, Bulgaria, and other
smaller States become engaged
in a wrangle the great powers will be
drawn into it sooner or later. The inter-
ests OF Russia and Austria are hostile,
and in the event Of a conflict between
these two powers the situation might i'm
mediately become such as would demand
the interference Of England, Germany
and France.
The probabilities are, however, that there
will be conference, and that the condition
of affairs that existed before Prince Alex
ander's authority was recognized in East
ern Roumelia will be restored. Turkey
has right to demand that the treaty of
Berlin shall be respected, and it will
be rather strange If the great powers fail
to respect it, Neither Servia nor Greece
has good cause for war, and will have no
cause whatever If Prince Alexander is
required to withdraw from Eastern Rou-
melia. If the great powers would agree
not to interfere, it is probable that Tur-
key would soon be able to restore her au-
thority over the revolving provinces.
The danger is in delay on the part of the
great powers to force a settlement. What
may be easy to do now may be difficult or
impossible TO do after hostilities have be-
gun. The King OF Servia is either playing
a part or is determined to have more ter
ritory. There is no telling where q war
begun by Servia would end, nor what ma
tions it might eventually involve. A few
days, doubtless, Will be sufficient to deter
mine what the course Of the great powers
will be.

The TusxaIoosa Convention.

Tuscaloosa, Ala, proposes 10 have a
river and harbor convention on Nov. II.
A call has been issued for that date, and
delegates are invited TO attend from every
city and town in Alabama aud the neigh
boring States. A special invitation is ex-
tended to the members OF Congress from
Tennessee, Georgia, Florida and Missis-
sippi. The purpose of the convention is
to memorabilia Congress in behalf of
Mobile harbor and the rivers that drain
the coal and iron region OF Alabama.
AS the Tuscaloosa convention meets a
week before the convention in this city, 1t
is not improbable that IL will stimulat 70
interest in our convention. IL will not, Of
course, be anywhere near as large as our
! convention, but II will be, doubtless. well
attended, and will not be without its in
nuenco on Congress.
The calling of conventions In the South
IN the interest OF Southern harbors and
rivers shows very clearly that the South
ern people are deeply in earnest in their
effort 70 develop their resources. They
are beginning TO realize how great the
wealth is which they have in their soil,
forests and mines, and they see that the
time can be FASTENED when the South will
be the richest section Of the country.
The New York press will continue 20
oppose, doubtless, appropriations for
rivers aud herbors, because Il is to the
interest Of that city 10 have the handling

policy will not have as many supporters

1t were true that the Republican victory
meant a declaration Of allegiance to Mr.. Sher-

From dark behind to dark before;
And only when our hands we lay,
Dear Lord, in Thine, the night is day
And there is darkness nevermOre.

And faith is sm all and hope delays;

simply because there are more Republl.
