A message from, Queen Victoria

SOFIA, Sept. 3.-Prince Alexander has ar
rived in Sofia. The revolutionary regiments
in the city have surrendered Internationally
to Alexander, and appealed to him for Glenn
ency Bulgaria is now tranquil.
Prince Alexander when he reached Buch-
crest and, on his iourneyt to Sofia, telegraphed
to the Sultan assurances of homage and de-
votion.
An attempt was made to wreck the train

LONDON, Sept. 3.-Everybody in London
is discussing the unexpected early meeting 6
of the German Reichstag. The. pretext al
legged for summoning the Reichstag,. namely
to ratify the commercial treaty with Spain,
is nowhere believed to be the true reason.
Russian Intervention in Bulgaria is confident
ly predicted within week. The growing
irritation of Austria and Prince Bismarck S
wish not to meddle with Russia, excite wide
spread uneasiness in England.
The Vienna New Free Press says that Bis
marck is striving to isolate France in order
to prevent rapprochement between France
and Russia. That is why he hands the East
over to the policy Of st. Petersburg, and why
he bids his journalistic trumpeters to play
pretty serenades to the Gar. German news
papers, the Press says, talk as if the Ger.
man empire lived by the grace of Russia, and
as if the Cars word was as decisive in Ber-
lin as it used to be in the time of Nicholas
and Frederick William.
The Standard says that Prince Alexander
has committed serious blunder, and the on
ly unworthy act with which he can be re-
preached. 1t was carrying the comedy OF
courtly dissimulation so far as to pretend
that theI Car did not approve of his deposi
tion. England has done her best to promote
peace in the Balkans. If she fails, Austria
and Germany will either suffer grave injury
or make heavy sacrifices. They may yet, the
Standard thinks, rue the day they abandoned
Alexander to curry favor with the Gar.
The News says that Alexander has been
abandoned and isolated by an agreement OF
three empires. Nothing could excel the hui
mility of his letter to the Gar, which is only
equaIed in degree by the brutality of the
Cars answer.

ACCIDENT ON THE RAIL.
Tho ST. John Express Freight De-
rallied at Benton.
The Fireman and One other Man
Injured.
rSpecial to the PRESS.

Especial to the PREss.]
WATERvILLE, Sept 3.-The St. John ex-
press freight went off the track at Benton
this afternoon at 2.30 O'clock. A telephone
message was sent to Waterville and word
sent through the Maine Central shops, and
in five minutes muscular mechanics manned
a wrecking train, and were on the way to the
scene of the disaster. The place of the ac-
cident is a narrow gorge, steep down grade
east of Benton depot. A section crew had
been at work repairing, and had one
rail up. The freight train makes no stop at
Benton. and was tagged, but the speed was
SO great on the grade it could not stop its
headway The engine cleared the broken
track except the rear wheels, while the ten
der went clear off. The first car leaped the
track and butted the banking, the second car
the same. The third lay across the track
badly shattered, and six others lay criss-
cross like Virginia rail fence, some COM
pletely wrecked, others turned upside down.
The track was torn up for ten rods. The
engineer escaped without injury. The fire.
man, Charles Clifford, of Bangor, saw the
danger ahead and ran back to put down the
brakes When the cars tipped he jumped,
but was caught beneath a portion OF the
debris and was found and eXtricated. his
right arm was fractured and chest hurt, with
probable internal injuries. He has been
taken to his home in Bangor. The only 9TH
er person injured was Michael O'Connell,
who was stealing ride. He received some
slight injury to his limbs. In the first three
cars were stock from the New England Fair
returning home. The third car contained
B. Summers of Woodstock, Conn, 600 herd
of Short Horns, consisting of a bull, three
COWS, and three heifers. These were all re-
moved, none of them, strange to say, receiy-
ing injury. The other wrecked cars contain
ed lime, shingles and miscellaneous freight,
which is stacked up on the banking. The
men with the herd had narrow escape, hav-
ing just left a box car when it jumped the
track. All traffic over the road is suspended
for time There is big crew at work.
Probably the track will be cleared by mid
night. President Sewall of the sMaine Cen
tral, Adjutant General Gallagher, Col Adams

One Argus Lie Nailed.

The Argus, in It's issue of yesterday, over
the signature of 80. Pudor," among some
remarkable statements as to county officials,
says:
To supplement this stupid and criminal inactiv-
ity on the part of the police, the county attorney
adds his mite of culpable inefheieucy, making no
effort to obtain from Shortsleeves formal ante
le0rtenl statement OF th9 facts of the shooting
although the attending surgeons Fl ON the irst an
nounced that the wound was necessarily fatal
and although the county attorney, unless he Is an
idiot of twenty-fonr carets, knows that it will be
almost impossible to convict the murderer on a
capital charge without this statement, because
the other witnesses of the transaction are pdrtic-
ipes crinainis, who will assuredy lie to save
themselves and their associate. Nor is this all.
These other witnesses, accessories before ana az
ter the fact. have been openly about the city, en-
gagged in their usual avocatlon OF laW-Dreaklng,
and in canvassing the rum vote for the coming
election.
The facts are, that so far as this article re-
lates to me it is absolutely false. The au-
thor could have learned the facts in the ease
by walking two rods to my office However.
some persons are so constituted that they
will sooner go miles for falsehood than stir
step to learn the truth of matter.
One of the essential things in taking an
ante-mortem statement is that the party CIV
ing it has sense of impending death and
that he does not expect to recover When
first / made arrangements to have Short
sleevess ante-mortem statement taken he
had hopes and expected to recover. 1t would
have been of no value if taken then then
made arrangements with DR.. Smith and
Marshal Hawkes. to keep me informed Of the
condition of ShortSleeveS. They did so, and
on the 25th day of August, DR.. Smith noti-
fled me that Shortsleeves was rapidly fail
ing and that he (Shortsleevesl wanted to give
his ante-mortem statement which was done
under my direction the same morning was
notified of his failing condition, and l now
have it in my possession. This statement
of 30. Pudor" is only another of the erron-
eous and false statements that have appeared
in the Argus from time to time in relation to
the performance of the duties of my office By
me.
The authors of these attacks seem to have
no respect for figures, facts, matters OF COM
mon information or deeency.
They have an object in view, and 1t seems
to matter very little to them what means are
employed to accomplish it. Co.

The just men, those that are capable Of
freeing themselves from the prejudiceS of
party opinion, irrespective of parts, Republi-
can and Democratic alike, demand a pure
government Those Republicans who are
capable of rising above the influences ofparty
prejudice know that the government under
the Republican administration, had become
corrupt beyond parallel in our history. If
they are honest and true men, at least with
in their own hearts and in the forum of their
own consciences, and before that silent
judge that sits in every mans mind, before
whom every man bows, they will admit at
least there in that silent court Of the mind
and heart, that this government, under Re-
publican administration, has disgraced the
history of the United States by its corrupt
ness. AND THE LABORING AND
LOWER CLASSES, THOSE PEOPLE
WHO LABOR FOR THEIR BREAD
HAVE SEEN REASON, SOMEHOW OR
OTHER, WITHIN THE LAST FEW
YEARS TO FORM COMBINATIONS AND

PROTECTION, AND TO DEMAND
THAT THIS GOVERNMENT BE JUST
TO THEM. THESE ARE FACTS THAT

WASHINGTON. Sept. 3.-The facts in the
case of another outrage upsn an American

the United States Secretary of State yester-
day. February last one l.. G. Schilling, now

While in Jail he was robbed of jewelry and
cash to the amount of several hundred dol

where he had stood trial and been acquitted,
he demanded of the jailor his money and
jewelry, also his other private property.

DEERINc cAMPcRoUND.
An interesting Educational Meeting.

DEERING, Sept. 3.
At 8 o'clock this morning the conference
convened and resolved itself into a very in
teresting educational meeting The discus
sion of resolution recommending the Maine
people to aid financially in enlarging South
Lancaster academy occupied considerable
time This institution of learning, although
situated in Massachusetts,, is designed for
the training of young people among the de-
nomination all over New England. 1t is al
so quite largely attended by outsiders who
find it pleasant training school in many re-
spects.
South Lancaster academy provides for
physical, as well as mental and moral cul-
ture. The following are among the trades
taught the students; Tent making, boot
and shoe repairing, broom making, harness
making. the printers trade, dress making
and the culinary art. The object of these
departments is not so much to teach each
student trade as to form habits of industry,
to give strength of character and to develop
the body ana mind symmetrically.
Prof. Ramsey, principal of the academy,
was called upon for remarks and offered
some practical thoughts concerning one
sided culture
He said that the various school studies
should be regarded as a means IdlncI thali
an end, as instruments by which the student
can sharpen. strengthen and polish his men
tai and moral faculties. Keeping this truth
in view he should avoid the error emitting
mathematics from his list Of studies because
he cannot see the use of the study, or history
because he does not like it, Knowing that
the mind consists of various groups of pow
ers. as the intellect, the emotions and the
will, some of which include several faculties,
he will realize the Importance of studying
certain subject to develop and train one set
of faculties, another subject to develop and
train another set, and so on In other words
he will seek to obtain symmetrical culture.
At 1890, Elder Butler preached from the
words, "For unto whomsoeyer much is CIV
en-, of him shall be much required; and to
whom men have committed much, of him
they will ask the more" Luke 12-4S:
In the afternoon Elder Smith took his text
from the prophetic part of the Bible using
the words, "Unto two thousand and three
hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be
cleansed." Dan. S-14.
Elder S. N. Haskell, the missionary from
Australia, arrived about sunset.
The evening sermon was preached by Ell
der Haskell, from the parable of the talents,
Mat %, 1921.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, campmeet-
ing Sabbath School will be held.
