and impressive one. Bunting and flags
abound in profusion on public build
ings, hotels and residences, and
arches, under which the procession
that will escort the president to
EliZabethport will march, have
been erected along the route.
Five thousand troops-state militia, civic
organizations and G. A. r. men-are
quartered in town, patiently awaiting
the time to escort George Washfngton's
most recent successor on his way to
New York, and to march in honor of the
centennial celebration of the Inaugural
ton of the first president of the United
States. The programme for tomorrow
includes breakfast at Gov. Green's
residence for President Harrison and
his family and Vice President and Mrs.
Morton; an informal reception at the
governors house. and review of the pro-
cession by the president. Enthusiasm
and patriotism prevail everywhere, and
the president during his short stay here
will see little else than marching troops
and waving flags, and hear nothing but
the strains of martial music, the BOOM
ing of guns and the cheers of enthusi
astic crowds of people.
VICE PRESIDENT MORTON
and Mrs. Morton arrived here from New
York at 500 O'Clock this afternoon.
Several thousand people had gathered
at the station, and the police had to
force passage way to the carriage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Morton were driven to the
home of Congressman Kean, whose
guests they will be until they join the
presidential party at Gov. Green's to-
morrow morning. The city is filling up
with people from the country all around.

DRIVEN UP STAIRS.
A Virginia Village Submerged by
a EreShet

WASHINGTON, April 23.- Bladens-
burg has been partially submerged for
the past two days, and the residents
there have been living in the upper
stories of their houses and padding
about the streets of the village in boats.
The terrific storm of the last three days
caused freshet at the little town and
vicinity such as has not been expert
enced in years. Some of the negroes
and the poorer people of the village
who resided in one-story houses were
driven from their dwellings to the hills
near by, and spent the night in the rain.
The situation was so alarming that
Sheriff Darnall, accompanied by sew
eral other gentlemen, started out in a
boat to render what assistance they
could, but the current was now so
strong that their boat was swept against
tree and capsiZed, and the occupants
We're glad to escape with no worse in

flood reached its height about midnight

waters have receded so rapidly that yes

serious injury and possible death to-

the sound of an approaching railroad
train, which was just emerging from
tunnel. The horses became unmanage-
able, and started down the road at
terrific pace. One of the horses fell
and was killed, otherwise the carriage

at a turn of the road short distance
beyond. The queen was badly shaken
up and much frightened, but received
no injury.

HAMILTON, Onti.ssApril 2s.-The lin
tied express on the Grand Trunk rail-
way, due here at 6:55 a. m., met with a
terrible accident about two miles west
of this city, the result of which was the
loss of many lives. The train was COM
posed of an engine, two baggage cars, a
smoker, a Chicago & Grand Trunk
through passenger coach, Wabash
coach,a Wagner first-class coach. a Pull
man car and two Wagner sleeping cars
i'll the order named. Conductor
Poole was in charge of the train, with
j. W. Watson, of London, fireman. The
accident occurred at the junction, where
"Y'' is built. This "Y' is used to
switch through trains for Toronto to the
Toronto branch from the main line. The
train is said to have been running at a
speed of
FORTY MILES AN HOUR
or more, when directly on crossing the
switch the engine jumped the track
and plunged into water tank which
stood in space between the ''Y," J"
smashing the tank into atoms and turn
ing almost upside down. The baggage
cars came directly after the engine,
and the first of these was pitched over
the engine and thrown on the main
track, leaving its wheels behind it.
Seven out of the ten coaches composing
the train were burned. In the ruins of
the smoking car searchers discovered
seventeen charred bodies The acci-
dent was the worst which has occurred
in this region since the great Des Jar
dins canal disaster, which happened al
iaost at the same spot thirty years ago.
| Thirty-five people were in the smoker,
and just about half of the number were
ROASTED ALIVE,
his head completely severed from his body
by piece of flying debris.
RUDOLPH DERER, whose address'is not
known, was also instantly killed.
THE AWFUL SCENE.
AS soon as the engine rol over,
after striking the water tank, Engineer
Watson and Fireman Chapman were
pulled out from underneath it, neither
of them being much hurt. An auxiliary
train was sent out from this city i'm
mediately on receipt of news
of the accident. and the pas
sengers, including the injured.
and two of the killed, were brought to
this city. Two Wagner ears in the rear
of the train were uncoupled from the
others and were saved from the flames.
A large gang of employees, under the
direction of John Hall, foreman,
worked increasingly at the wreck, doing
their utmost to eXtinguish the fire.
There was great difficulty in securing
water. owing to the tank being smashed,
and the fire held sway for many hours
before thorough search could be made
through the debris. Up to o'clock the
charred remains of eighteen victims
had been eXhumed from the wreck. In
no case was there enough of the body
left to identify the remains or to tell
whether the person was of the male or
female sex.

OTHERS SLIGHTLY HURT.

About ten others were slightly hurt,
but not SO badly as to prevent them
continuing their journey. 1t was
o'clock this evening before the tracks
were cleared. None of the members of
the Detroit Light infantry were hurt,
and not woman was in the least hurt.
The wounded in the hospital are all
doing well. AS far as can be
learned there was no negligence
on the part of the railroad company. The
train simply jumped the track at frog.
The engineer and fireman did not jump
because they had no time. They were
taken from the debris with difficulty,
and it is miraculous how they escaped
with their lives. The baggageman and
expressman, James Welch and Fred
Dumas, both of Niagara Falls, were IN
the car which jumped over the engine,
yet neither was hurt. The screams of
the men who were being burned to
death in the smoking car could be heard
above the noise of the escaping steam

A Grave Mistake.

Yes, repeat il is grave mistake,
young ladies, to let men spend so much
money upon you in various ways. 1t
cheapens you in exact proportion to
what they pay for you.
Very often they cant afford it; and
not frequently they don't wish to do it,
and only yield to custom and what they
suppose you expect from them.
Girls could often learn n lesson for
themselves by noticing how their bro
theirs talk about the expenses Of escort
duty. AS they talk to you, 50 do your
escorts speak Of you.
1t would be wise and righteous
measure if society girls would form lea
CUES among themselves to institute IL
reform in these things, and bring the
wholesome pleasures of social inter-
course within the honest reach of men
whose salaries are small.
Don't allow men TO give you eXpen-
sive supper5 and expensive flowers and
the like. And as TO more personal
things, why q sense OF delicacy and
personal dignity ought TO place inn
pas5able barriers between you and gifts
from men who are not bound TO you by
the closest ties OF blood and friendship.
How well remember the instruction
OF the best woman / ever knew, whose
advice to her daughter was: ''Never
take presents from men or allow them
TO spend money upon you; even when
you are engaged, limit your lovers
gifts to flowers and books. 1t is time
enough for handsome presents when
you are married; and ifanything should
interfere with your marriage, why, you
will be spared the modification of hav-
ing all sorts of things to send back"
The longer l live the sounder this
advice becomes. All, in those days
mothers were so careful in the way they
taught their daughters, and trained a
race OF women who were fit to be wives
and mothers and who learned no lessons
whose ultimate sequence is the divorce
