Spreading Rails Cause IL Fatal Smash.
The south-bouDd passenger train on the
Butler branch of the Western Pennsvl-
vania railroad jumped the track at Sarver's
station. and the entire train, consisting of
two passenger coaches and a combination
smoking and baggage car, went over IN en-
bankment and was totally wrecked. Three
persons were killed outright and twenty
five others injured, a number OF wnom
will die. The accident was caused by the
spreading of the rails on i small bridge.
The rails were GA strlngers which had
rotted with time and long service. The
engine passed over the bridge safely. but
the first car was dcrailcl and plunged
down in the abyss some fifty feet below.
The rails plowcd through the second car
inu the escapes were miraculous.

Opening Of the Cherokee Strip.

All negotiations between the Cherokees
and the commission are at an en- until
the council meets in November, Chief
Mayes holding that, if he had authority to
appoint a conference committee, their ac-
ton would not be binding withou the
ratification of the council. Judge Wilson
is quoted as saying: Chief Mayes op-
poses the negotiations very strongly, but
it is only a question of Il little time when
the Indian, who acts slowly, will favor
not only the sale of the strip, but the
opening Of the territory, as the power o.
the press cannot be long resisted"

Sullivan stood up quickly. Judge Terrell

spoke slowly:
1T seems to me this prize fight at Rich
burg was n gross atfront to the laws OF :he
state where the authorities personally for
babe it. 1t seems to have been accomplish.
ed with Il systematic arrangement and in
the presence of invited thousands; it seems
on the part of all connected with it, to
have been a studied disregard and con-
tempt for the law. They came from and
through many states, whose authority
and civilization deferred them from any
attempt at such public lawless conduct
within their limits, and they chose
the state of Mississippi as the
only fit ground for such combat, indicat-
ing their utter contempt for the sentiment
of her people and the laws of her statute
books. The sentence of the law is that as
a punishment for the otiense for which you
stand convicted, you shall suffer imprison-
ment for twelve months in the county
jail"
! Sullivan gloomily took his seat.
! MIR. Fitzpatrick took his place at the bar.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick" said the Judge, in view
Of all that has been said in your behalf,
and which / am disposed to belive is true,
you appear to be. n gentleman who was
only present at the fight as a spectator, and
one who did not intend to violate the law.
In view OF the sta'ements in your behalf,
/ sentence you to pay a fine of 5000"
Capt. Fitzpatrick bowed and thanked the
court.
The case was promptly appealed to the
supreme court and Sullivan gave bond for
$1,000 for his appearance and $500 costs.
He left Purvis accompanied by his faith
full friend Clune. There was a large
crow at tie depot who babe Sullivan
good-by. On the train Sullivan had but
little to FAY and behaved we'll, although a
little jolly when the train passed. Rich

A Chicago dispatch SAYS: The wife Of
Millionaire Mike" Mcdonald, the noted

The circumstances are most extraordinary.
Mrs. Mcdonald disappeared from her

army of detectives has been retained to
discover her whereabouts, they have sue
ceeded only IN obtaining her damon IS,

1t is supposed Mrs. Mcdonald is now in
Europe. 1t is reported that She had u

quantity Of milk, and at irregular periods
he has continued to do SO. All told, he

tween the beginning of his fast and his

such as would be expected. The faster

Sores came upon him by reason of his long
confinement, and evidently Marvel not

is the longest on record so far as known.

the killing of David s.. Terry, at Lathrop,
Cal. Application was made at once on a
writ of habeas corpus, and the matter was

killed David S. Terry at Lathrop was re-
moved from the Jail at Stockton by Sheriff
Cunningham AMI taken to San Francisco

based upon 4 writ of habeas corpus issued
by Judge Sawyer. of the United States

pose the release Of Maggie by the federal
authorities. Tho attorney claimed it was
beyond the jurisdiction of the federal
courts to take from The custody of a state
official a person who hal been arrested for
the commission of y crime within the state
jlris iiction and against the state laws.
Judge Sawyer's reply was that the action
of the couri was based on the fact that

About 9 o'clock the other night a mob
visited the residence of J. B. Doplechein,
near Grand Couteau, La, for the purpose
of regulating a mu,atto woman whose con-
duct did not exactly suit their ideas. The
woman was taken by the crowd, W. en- Du-

shoot. The mob turne and seriously
wounded him, filling him full of buckshot
from his head to his waist. Duple helm
fired after he was shot and caused them TO

that the guilty parties viii be brought to

In the Sullivan trial at Purvis, Miss,
Attorney Calhoun, previous to the SEN
tence of Sullivan, presented to the coult
the following:
Tho undersigned, members of the grand
jury ilnpaneled at the present term OF
court, who tried the case of the sta1e vs.,
John l.. Sullivan, convicted of prize fight
ing, respectfully show to the court that in
view of the fact that this is the first con-
victlon Tor the oifense named III the state.
and for other reasons they recommend and
request that your honor will impose no
higher penalty than a fine of 81, 900 and
that no Imprisonment be inflicted"
Ed Davis was the only petit juror who
refused to sign. The grand jurors all
signed it, as well rs the sheriff, clerk and
officers of the court and the justice of the
peace before whom the case was first tried.
Gen. Ford supplemented the petition by
some fine remarks. He said that he had
had opportunity to learn the public feel
ng and sentiment in the matter, and with
out a single exception it seemed to be the
desire that the court exercise as great q
degree of clemency as possible.
There was a pause md then o stir in the
audience, when the silence was broken by
Sullivan himself. The champion stood
up before the bar, and, speaking in a loud,
clear and steady voice, said:
your honor, I desire to make a few re-
marks. I can only ask for your clemency
in this matter. No doubt / have done
something wrong, but as my counsel has
told you, I was ignorant of the law. I am
not rs oratorical as the distinguished dis
trict attorney on my right, or my counsel,
who have addressed you, and therefore I
beg to remark that I am your humble SER
want, John L. Sullivan"
Sullivan sat down and looked at the
court, awaiting his doom. Judge Terrell,

An Antipodean Beauty.

I wonder what home folks would think who
saw you sitting there
In that delightful maze of pink OF a French
cOstumierc,
Half out. half in. the last court shoe that
took Partisan taste.
The moment they shot eyes at Won they'd
note the union rare,
Complexion of the warmer hue with the
trown of pale gold hair.
Twas this the Italian masters loved on cam
vas 10 portray,
And some such witchery which moved the
King Cophetua.
While the refinement of your face and the
unconscious knack.
The careless captivating grace with which
Could not be truer If you were the daughter
of peer.
Or long-descended commoner in the same So
cial sphere.
There's not fairer in Mayfair or better
bred and drest
In all the garland gathered there from Eng
You look so dainty, SO complete SO far from
common folk,
As If you'd never crossed the street without
Raleigh's cloak.
And yet I've seen you, often too, on half
broken horse
Press hard an Ola-man kangaroo DER fence
and wateT-cOurse;
Gallop wildf1re twist low-bra nched trees, mid
burrow and ant-heap,
And pull the colt up frCm his knees when
stumbling from a leap.
And II they knew the simple things with
which you're grati1ed,
nd saw your hearty welcomings and free
dom from false PRIDE
They'd never dream that you command all
money can acquire,
And occupy block of land as large as Lin
colnshire.
wish I'd Miilais' art to trace you as you're
sitting there,
With your bright summer-tlnted face and
golden crown of hair,
To catch the sweet simplicity and gallant
confidence
That mingle In your frank blue eye, and
augur innocence.
Innocence need not be uncouth. and natures
not i'll drest.
Nor is it any crime for youth to try and look
her best,
And all delight when wealth and grace, ac-
complished and ornate.
Seek not with coldn So to efface the pleasure
they create.

A Glimpse of Two Astors.

A day or two ago / was in Delmoni-
cos when the youngest of the Astors
entered and took his luncheon. His
s"lemnity and sadness of mein was
striking. He kept his eyes fixed re-
iigiously on the ground as he walked
across the cafe, selected distant and
secluded table, turned his back upon
the people and ate with an air of gen.
tie and mournful self-abnegation. He
is the heir of. a hundred or two of
millions, and is probably the most de-
sirable parti in New York. No one
seemed TO know him, and the waiter
who attended to his wants was quite
careless and Indifferent. Had he
known that it was the heir of the As
tors that he was waiting upon he
would probably have jumped five feet
in the air with alacrity. Before this
particular AstOr had finished his
luncheon his cousin, William Waldorf
Astor. also drifted in and sat down
near the door. His face had the same
preternaturally grave and solemn look.
do not suppose that the Ex-Minister
of Italy is more than thirty-iiye or
thirty-stx years of age. and he has
magnificent physique. but the general
effect after hasty look at his face is
that of ii man who has had a stormy
life and is nearing his forty eighth or
forty-ninth year. He. too. was ex-
ceedingly simple in the matter of fare.
He drank a cup of tea with his lunch
con, and when he had finished he
took an old book from the pocket of
his Oyercoat and sat reading it for half
an hour. Then he paid his bill, got
up and drifted out. Neither of the
two Astors knew of the others pres
ence. Probably tho two men together

man nodded in return. 1t was a |
greeting between father and son, but
it might have been the salutation of

pOrtly form of the elder Astor was
clad in black. His face was as heav-
lily scanned as that of Il tragedian, and
he walked with Il slow and ponderous
tread. There was heavy band of

ful along the street and sirode slowly
