Passengers on the Portland Express
Cut by Broken Glass.
A Timber Projecting over the Track
Caused the Trouble,
As the Train Flew by at the Rate of
Forty Miles an Hour.

AND0vER. Mass, December 23.--A mar
row escape from bad accident and lucky
escape from death for number of people oc-
CURED this afternoon. The Portland ex-
press over the Western division of the Bos-
ton & Maine railroad left Boston at 345 p.
m. and had large number of passengers
aboard bound to their homes in Maine and
New Hampshire to spend the Christmas
holidays. The train was passing through
here at the rate of 40 miles an hour when it
passed the Portland freight bound for Bos-
ton on the opposite track. A large piece OF
timber, two feet through, became unfastened
in some manner from car on the freight
train and hung over One end Of the car. 1t
struck the front end Of the rear passenger
car on the Portland train, tearing out every
hand side Of the car and throwing glass and
splinters into the faces of the passengers,
tearing out great pieces of the frame work on
the side Of the car. A number Of lady pas
sengers tainted from fright and about 15 or
20 were injured badly about the face and
head from flying glass and splinters. One
woman remained unconscious several hours
and is reported fatally injured. Upon the
arrival ofthe train at Lawrence the injured
passengers were cared for and a number
were able to continue on the train for their
homes. The car was so badly damaged that
it was left at South Lawrence. The trains
were delayed half an hour.
Later-Mrs. Annie o. Chapman of New
market. N. ii was passenger on the Port
land express. She was hit In the face by the
piece of joist, cutting her cheek open to the
bone and breaking hew jaw. Upon the ar
rival Of the train at Haverhill the injured
lady was left over one train for medical
treatment. No physician being at hand.
she was taken home on the train leaving
there at 6.10. The names Of the others in
jured are not known. Their injuries were
very slight

LATTER DAY IDEAS.
A Religious Service the Like Of Which
Milwaukee Never Saw Before.

MILWAUKEE, December 23.-A Judge, a
lawyer and banker, occupied the pulpit, in
company with the pastor at New Plymouth,
or the Church Of the Latter Day Ideas, last
evening. The three secular gentlemen who
appeared in the pulpit were Judge Noyes of
the Supreme Court, j. V. Quarles, a well
known attorney and politician, and John
Johnston, cashier and one of the owners of
the Mitchell Bank The speakers were lib
crafty aplauded. Johnston preached some
thing of a humorous sermon, interlarding ar
gument on the relations of ancient and mod
ssn with sassh text tba
Puritan Character" but he did not ahere
strictly to the text. He was not wholly COM
plimentary In referring to the Pilgrim
Fathers. which was not exactly what had
quentiy. and traced the history of the Puri-
tans, and how their ideas had been ingraft-
cd In the American people. At one stage in
the proceedings he grew quite heated, and
Numbered from the pulpit, MEN may laugh
and sneer at the Puritan all they please,
but the character Of the uritan will
stand, despite the driveling sarcasm of
the spider-legged dudes, the exerescences
of our present civilization" At this there
was burst of applause from the congrega-
wonderful chuch SERVICE the like of which
had never before been seen in Milwaukee.
In was in keeping. however, with the ideas
OF the pastor, Rev. Judson Ellsworth. who
maintains that churches must pe made pop
ula,r if they wish to compete successfully
with modern attractions of the devil.
Rev. Mr.. Ellsworth did not preach last
evening, acting as master OF ceremonies, and
offering the opening prayer and pro-
nouncing the benedicti0n. The new church
Will be open every day in the year, being
fitted up with gymnasium, reading room
and a lunch room

THERE'S MILLIONS IN IT.
A True story Which Reads Like an
Act From Play.
Parchment Yellow with Age Found
Hidden In an Old Mirror.
A Missing Deed which Will Aid
Claimants to a Vast Estate.

New YORK, December 2S.-Charles Roll
of Newark, accidentally broke an old mirror
four weeks ago. 1t had been given to him
years ago by his grandfather. The glass was
shivered to atoms, and an old age-yellowed
piece Of parchment was disclosed to view
for the first time in century and more. as
was proved by the nature of the document.
For 75 years Mr.. Roll aud:his relatives have
been endeavoring to gain additional evi
dence with which they could lay claim to
wide stretch Of land in Mohawk Valley
along the banks Of the Mohawk River. Mr..
Roll knew perfectly we'll that his Holland
Dutch ancestor, Jacob Roll, had owned a
large tract of land there which had been
abandoned during the French and Indian
wars, but he never found any papers by
which he could fix the position of the land
The document which dropped from the
mirror back four weeks ago was an impor-
Roll, OF whom there are 100, have long been
seeking. Having found 1t they will press
their claim to property near Schenectady, N.
Y, valued at S6000,000. The piece of fold
ed parchment was a deed from the Indians
to jacob Roll, giving Roll clear title to a
Mohawk river, beginning In the city of
Schenectady, and running back from the
river nine miles. The whole town OF Am
sterdam is believed to be included in the
Indian deed. as are also valuable properties
of the New York Central Railroad. An In
dian title or deed of land is almost impossible
to set aside In New York State. The validity
of this deed is declared to be un1uestionable,
as c. W. Manning of Cincinnati, Ohio, was
in Albany, N. Y, on Saturday, and found
the deed recorded in the old Dutch records
in the year 1856.
Mr.. Manning went to Elizabeth, j., on
Saturday night, as soon as he proved the
genuineness of the title, and there joined
committee comprising representatives Of
over 100 heirs.
These men subscribed a sum of money
with which to push the claims of the heirs,
and assessed each of the heirs certain sum
as reserve fund to draw upon. The heirs
are scattered in all parts Of the United
States, but each lineal descendant of Jacob
Roll was represented at Elizabeth on
Saturday night.
When Jacob Roll was compelled to flee,
owing to the Indian war, he went to Central
New Jersey, and settled at Springfield
There he also owned considerable property
by Indian deeds, and the validity of these
deeds has never been questioned there. The
heirs are confident that at least large part
OF the land can be claimed by them, as the
deed specifically explains what lands are
transferred to Jacob Roll.

MAJOR DIAS HAULED DOWN THE FLAG.
The British CoIors Are Not Tolerates

SENIOR Comes Says that England
Has No just Cause Of Complaint.

Some Of stanley's Statements.

LISBON. December 2S.-Senhor Comes, the
Portuguese minister Of foreign affairs, In re.
ply to the note Of Lord Salisbury, the Brit
ish prime minister, relative to the move
ments Of Major Serpa Pinto. in Africa, says
the major did nothing TO warrant the accusa-
tions made against him. He did not order
an attack on the British flag, but merely re-
pulsed hostile natives. among whose baggage
after the fight, three British flags were
found.
Senior Comes asks Lord Salisbury to
await further information concerning the af-
fair before he takes any further action.
A telegram from Serpa Pinto, dated Octo
Der Is, at Muggurumba telegraph station on
the Shire river has been received. II reports
that English flags were being hoisted at sew
eral places on Portuguese territory. The
natives had raised the English flag opposite
the camp Of the Portuguese railway survey,
which had been removed by Major Dias.
On November 9th, the governor Of Mozam-
bique wired Serpa Pinto that he had re-
quested the natives to lower all foreign flags
and notified them II this request was not
complied with, the Portuguese would haul
them down with due honOrs aud send them
to Quillimane to be restored to the consuls
there.

SELEorMEN AGAINST InEnorD.
A Massachusetts Clergyman Refuses
Aid for His Sick Child.

ATTLEBoRo, Mass, December 23.-The
faith cure case bids fair to be source of
considerable trouble to the selectmen and
board of health. DR.. c. S. Holden has been
authorized to give the little child of Rev.
Mr.. Penney the closest attention, and report
any change In her condition to the board.
This morning Selectman Adams and DIR.
Holden visited the house and tried to reason
with the man, but he was obdurate, and no
amount of persuasion would induce him to
allow the child to receive the medicine,
which the physician says is absolutely neces-
sary to save her life.
Mr. Penney says that the Lord has cured
him of various diseases. and he believes that
the same power will save his child; at any
rate he is willing to leave the case entirely to
Him. 1t Is learned that the reverend gentle
man referred to the affair in his sermon yes
terday afternoon, saying: "The AttlebOro
selectmen are trying to get the credit for the
Lords work."
DR.. Holden has visited the patient six
times in the past 36 hours. and has been or.
dered to make note of any change in her
condition. All he is allowed to do is to look
on, as lMr Penney will not allow drop of
medicine to be given.
fhe whole case is great trial to the moth
er who is a very intelligent looking woman,
and don't believe in her husbands doctrine
No warrant has yet been sworn out against
the man, but if the child should show signs
of sinking radical steps will be taken to get
1t away from the fathers care, even if the
latter has to be put behind the bars. Rev,
Mr.. Penney has only recently located
in this town, coming few weeks ago from
East Saginaw, Mich. He is in rather poor
circumstances, but this fact has nothing to
do with the case, as DR.. Holden informed
him he would give his services gratuitously.
AS one gentleman expressed it, it seems to
be a case of the "Attleboro Selectmen VS..
the Lord" Agent Brown of the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Children has
notified the Boston agent of the case, and it
is believed they will look into the case.

New YORK, December 23.-The Times cor

The Port au Prince papers have already pub.
lished several editorials on the subject Of the sus
pscted, or alleged, territorial designs OF the
