The Trial of the Train-wreckers.

KANSAS CITY. Dec. %. -Prosecuting Attorney
Gibson made the opening address, to-day, in the
trial of George Hamilton, charged with train
wrecking, in the District Court at Wyandotte.
He said that the State expected to prove that or
the night of the wreck the Knights of Labor
held a meeting in their hall in Kansas City
Kan; that later, the six accused men. one Of
them disguised. left the hall and proceeded tc
the Missouri Pacific tracks, below Wyandottei
that there Oliver Lloyd drew the spikes from the
rails and removed the fsh-plate, while Hamilton
and the others watched; that they returned tc
the hall. and two hours later a freight train was
plunged into the river, and the fireman. Ben
Horton, and a brakeman, Forge Carlisle, were
killed.
Alvin Spaulding, of Atchison, the conductor
described the wreck and the evidence of removal
of che rails, as has heretofore been published.
On cross-examination the defense tried to show
by admissions of the witness that the track was
in bad repair at this point and the train was run
ming fast. but Spaulding's testimony was not
shaken. They were running slowly he said, and
the track was all right the previous day. He
knew of no grudge that could have been borne
against him by any of the strikers. There
was a bitter feeling, however. entertained by
the strikers against the men at work.
In the afternoon session, George Fowler, the
engineer, testified substantially to the same eff
feet as the conductor. He also had examined
the track and found il had been tempered with.
There are rumors that new evidence of a start
ling nature will be presented in a day or two.

In making this announcement we wish to
thank the public for their generous recogni-
ton, Endorsement and very liberal patronage,
all of which we try to merit by skillful work,
reasonable fees and devotion to the welfare of
our patients. 1t is a we~ll-recognized fact that
our methods are new, improved and for the
most part painless; our preparation superior,
practice unsurpassed, and our success beyond
question. We make no apologies for adver-
Using. believing we. have a perfect right to
enjoy the privileges of other business men in
placing our claims before the public. Obser-
walton and experience teaches us that the
afflicted want cures, regardless of ''ethics" or
''pathies." This we strive to give in the least
possible time, without experimenting by doc
toring for months and perhaps years, until
their patience is exhausted and their purse
impoverished. How well we succeed we will
let our patients state. Their name is legion,
many of whom are your ~neighbors.

Singular and Exciting Episode in a New
York Church.

singular and Exciting Episode in a New
York Church.
New York Special.
Worshippers at the German Baptist Church
on Fourteenth street were treated to a sensation
this morning. In the middle of the service a
tall, slender, sallow-faced young man of about
thirty years, rose in a pew in the center aisle,
clasped a young lady, who sat near him, by the
waist, drew her face to his and frantieally en-
braced her. They were the only occupants of
that Dew. Other members of the CONGREGATION
looked on amazed and inactive. The young lady
screamed, but the man, not relaxing his grasp
in the least, sent forth a succession of ear-split-
ing shouts. The pastor. Rev. G. A. Schultz,
who had suspended his sermon at the first out
cry, left the pulpit and came down the aisle.
When he tried to take the young man out of the
pew. he found he had a big contracto on his hands.
Others came to his assistance and the lady was
released. She Immediately tainted from excite
ment and horror. The pastor walked the young
man up and down the aisle, exhorting him in
soothing tones to calm himself. This treatment
was unsuccessful, the man becoming more vio-
lent each moment. He was taken to the station
house on a stretcher, but when he got there it
took several policemen to hold him down. He
was evidently dangerously insane and was sent
to Bellevue Hospital, where the surgeons CON
signed him to a padded cell. DR.. Schultz, pastor
OF the church. says the young man has been a
regular attendant there for several years. He
is Cornelius Hendrickson. a clerk. out of en-
ployment. living with a relative at No. 1873 Essex
street. His mind has been affected for a num-
Der of years, softening of the brain having re-
suited from an old sickness. He was hitherto
absent from home all Christmas day, and at
tended the Chrismas-night service at the church.
Nothing out of the way was then observable in
his conduct.

Christmas at the Meridian-Street Church.
At the Christmas entertainment at the Merid-
ian NJ. E. Church, last night, besides the con-
gregation of that church, there were many pres
emit from other churches. The entertainment
was in the form of a comic concert, the company
being the Celebrated Smith Family" the pro-
gramme being under the direction of OFT Hassel-
man. Following the performance, q remarkably
comic poem, sent in by Santa Claus. was read.
1t was a hit, and stamped Santa Claus as qpite
a poet, as well as a giver of gifts. There was a
beautifully decorated tree, loaded with presents,
from which all the children of the Sunday
school were supplied with some token of the gen.
erous season of the year.

The Knights and the Trades Charter.

PHILADELPHIA. Dec. %. Lewis F. Smith,
master workman of local assembly No. II,
Knights of Labor, received a telegram, yester-
day, from John +. Hall, a member of district
assembly No. 49. Of New York city, requesting
assembly No. II not to take any action upon its
proposed Withdrawal, as Master Workman Pow
Derby had sent o letter to Mr.. Hall. bearing on
the subject MIR. Smith inferred from this that
the general executive board had become alarmed
at the attitude of the machinery constructors
and had decided to grant the national trades
charter. Although Local Assembly IL has sew
cred its connection with the Knights it will
probably request the restoration of It's charter
should the national charter be granted by the
general executive board.

this proposition the cases were continued until

The Demand for a special Session.

special session of the General Assembly of the

by the constitution to obey the request.
The call is to consider a proposition
to rescind the action taken at Richmond. which
is considered uncons.itutional, inasmuch as 1t
added to the number of the general executive

The letter in which Old Sharon had under

the name of the thief, contained these lines:
''You are a charming girl, my dear; but
you still want one thing to make you perfect,
and that is a lesson in patience I am proud

From Moody's point of view there was but
one thing to be said of this-it was Just like
Old Sharon! lsabers letter was of infinitely
greater interest to him. He Toasted his eyes
on the words above the signature; she signed
herself, Yours, gratefully and affection

really beginning to be fond of him? After
kissing the word he wrote a comforting let

him with no more money until he had hon.
