Disaster on the Virginia AIidland-Eight
Persons Killed and Many Injured.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, July 13.-About two
miles south of Orange, on the Virginia
Midland railway, is a trestle forty ght
feet high, which was known to be weak
and the railway company was engaged in
filing it in. Early yesterday morning the
through Southern train, going at speed
of six miles, began crossing the trestle I'M
der regular orders. The engine had passed
safely over most of the trestle when the
smoking, mail, baggage and express cars
went down with a great crash, distance
of fifteen feet, dragging down the engine
and tender and two passenger coaches.
Two sleepers remained on the trestle. The
engine went down pilot foremost, thus
communicating no fire to the wreck. Ali
lights were extinguished in the fall.
The dead and some of the wounded were
taken to Orange while the more seriously
hurt were taken to Charlottesville and
placed in the cottage hospital, hotels and
homes of friends. AS far as can now be
ascertained, five were killed. G. Cox, of
Alexandria, of the engineering department
of the Piedmont air line, was instantly
killed; II. l. Wilmington, of Greensboro,
postal clerk, lived ten minutes; D. c.
Brightwell, postal clerk, Prince Edward
County, Virginia, lived until he reached
the hospital; w. E. Parrot, of Albemarle
County, J. Q. West and J. L. Walthall, of
Washington, D. c., all postal clerks, badly
injured, while Louis jenkins, of Lynch
burg, also a postal clerk, was slightly in
jured. Potterfield, the express agent, was
seriously injured. q. Jennings, of Lynch
burg, a passenger, received internal in
juries. Captain Taylor, of Alexandria,
who was in the car next the smoker when
the accident occurred, was hurt about the
head and one leg was injured. The in
jured are estimated at twenty-f
General Manager Randolph has received
further details of the accident. In adj
dition to the list of the killed three more
persons were found dead in clearing away
the debris. They were passengers. Two
of them were men and one a woman, but
at the latest accounts they had not been

BOULANGER AGAIN.
The Fiery Frenchman Makes a Bad Break
and Resigns.

The Fiery Frenchman Makes Bad Break
and Resigns.
PARIS, July 13.-In the Chamber of
Deputies yesterday General Boulanger
proposed the dissolution of the Chamber.
His proposition was rejected and he there
upon resigned his seat. In his speech pro-
posing the dissolution he said that such a
course was imperative and that elections
ought to be held before the celebration of
the centenary of the revolution of 1889.
The country demanded the institution of
new safeguards to secure the Republic
from the attacks of its adversaries, against
which it powerless. The Chamber Of
Deputies was falling into ruin and de-
cay and the country was treIn-
bling with emotion at always having
presented to it an enemy citizen who
only desired the welfare of the Republic.
The monarchists were watching the Re-
public, expectant of its death agony. The
country felt that its safety demanded a re-
vision of the constitution. He did not
doubt that the patriotism of the deputies
was on a level with their sense of duty.
He would do his duty by demanding the
passage of the resolution that the Cham
Der, being convinced of the necessity for
fresh elections, should ask President Car
not for q dissolution.

An Eastern Storm.

NEW YORK, July 13.-Advices from all
parts of New York, New Jersey and New
England show that a terrific rain and
wind storm ragged all Wednesday night.
The storm was particularly severe along
the coast and many sailing vessels went
ashore. No large loss of life has as yet
been reported, but the damage to property
will be large. A dispatch from Water
town, n. ", shows that the storm was
very severe along the ST. Lawrence and on
Lake Ontario. AT Cape Vincent, the
Islander and the Annie Laurie, small pas
senger steamers, were driven ashore and a
number of barges sunk. Advices from
Sandy Hook state that the storm con-
tinues.

All Counties Organized.s

TOPEKA, Kan, July 1O.-Governor Mar
tin yesterday issued a proclamation or
ganizing the County of Greeley. This COM
pletes the organization of all the counties
of the State, making a total of los. Dur
ing the past three years and half Gov
ernor Martin has organized twenty three
counties, having an aggregate area of
1858 square miles, territory larger than
that included within the boundaries of the
three States of Massachusetts,, New Hamp-
shire and Rhode Island. The laws of Kan
sas require that a county, before it is or
ganized, must have population exceed
ing $500 and property assessed at not less
than $4,000, exclusive of railroad prop
erty.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, July 12.-The waters
that have been sweeping the valley of the
Monongahela and the valleys of its tribu-
taries for the last sixty hours are now fall
ing into their natural channels. They
leave in their track scenes of desolation
and ruin that have never had their count
erpart in the same localities. From Pitts
burgh to the mountain Businesses of Ran
dolph County, W. Va, towns
have been ravaged, manufactures
have been inundated, boats have
been sunk, houses and lumber
have been fioated off, fields with their
wheat in shock and growing crops have
been devastated, families driven to the
hills for shelter and in many instances the
accumulations of years of toll snd self
sacrifice lost in hour. The losses en-
tailed by the flood will not fall saort of
$3,OO0,OO0. These losses fall most heavily
upon the owners of coal property, railroad
companies and farmers.

Martyrs to Headache

Seek relief in vain, until they begin to
use Ayers Sarsaparilla. Then they re-
greet the years of suffering they might
have escaped had they tried this remedy
earlier. The trouble was constitutional
not local; and, until Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla did its effective work as an
Alternative and Blood Purifier, they were
compelled to suffer.
The wife of Samuel Page, 81 Austin
st., Lowell, Mass, was, for long time,
subject to severe headaches, the result
of stomach and liver disorders. A per-
feet cure has been effected by Ayers
Sarsaparilla.
Frank Roberts, 727 Washington ST.,
Boston, says that he formerly had ter
rible headaches, and until he took
Ayers Sarsaparlla, never found any

In Memory of sacorge II. Eyler,

There is a friend from US has gone,
A friend we loved 50 well,
But Othy voice is still
We no more can look for thee.
George il seems it can not BE
That VIC no more thy face will see
And we are left in grief to mourn
He whom on earth VIC loved so we'll
Ills tolls and labOrs now are over
His work on earth is done
He has gone to meet his loved ones
Over on the other shore.
A place is vacant in our homes
That never can be filled
While friends and children mourn your loss
We trust you are safe in heaven.
Farewell dear George, a sad farewell
Since your dear form no more we see,
A few more years on earth to dwell
And We shall all united be.
