BISHOP M'TYEERE.

Death has removed from the walks
of life man loved, respected and
esteemed by all good people. The
cheek is now cold on which the softest
affections SO lately played Bishop
McTyere is dead. 1t may be affirmed
that he made no honest man his en-
envy, and that every good man was his
friend. He was virtuous, wise and cap.
able. He was deyoutly religious man,
and useful citizen. In his friendship
he was sincere, and in his transactions
Just. Those who knew him loved and
respected him most His genius was
of the highest grade. His mind was
rapid, comprehensive and brilliant in
the extreme. He was man Of extra
ordinary industry, ofquick perception
and extensive information The chnrch
and state has lost a useful, efficient
conscientious servant, the cause of
education a Jealous advocate, lie was
the senior bishop of the Southern
Methodist church, and in this as in all
other positions he discharged his dutie:
faithfully and in the fear Of God The
people and the church mourn the loss
of good and great man.

WHOLE NO. 252
A Great Enterprise.
rom the Knoxville Journal.

From the Knoxville Journal.
The news given the citizens Of Knox.
vile and East Tennessee yesterday
morning was extremely gratifying
The fact that ninety miles of the
"Three C's' road, from Johnson City
through the inexhaustible coal fields OF
Southwestern Virginia, shows that
that great enterprise is an assured fact.
1t shows that in short time this sec.
ton is to have access to new and rich
fields of coking coal, and that the
facilities for operating new manufac.
turning establishments are to be great.
ly increased. Itshows that the unsur.
passed steel-making ores OF the Cram.
berry region are to be brought into
close proximity to cheap, abundant,
superior fuel, and that there is good
reason to hope that East Tennessee
may soon become the center of the
steel-making interest in the United
States. 1t Will be a grand thing for
johnson City, grand thing for
Bristol, for Jonesboro Greeneville and
Morristown, and grand thing for
Knoxville. In fact there is no part
OF East Tennessee, Southwestern Vir-
ginia, Weston North Carolina, North
ern Georgia or Northern Alabama,
that will not be benefited by the con-
struction Of this enterprise.
1t is another step forward for the
whole south. 1t shows that capital is
beginning to fully realize the extent OF
the rich treasures hid away in the
magnificent mountains OF the border
south, and that these hidden treasures
are to be brought forth, and brought
into use for the happiness and pros
perity of the people. 1t is boom fer
the whole south, and an immense
boom for Eastern Tennessee and
Southwestern Virginia. Taken in
connection with other enterprises now
being rapidly completed, some OF them
already completed, it shows that all the
great natural advantages claimed for
this section are about to. be quickly re.
allied The Walden's Ridge road
opened new coal supply, the Tennes-
see Valley road penetrated new mines,
the Powells Valley road will develope
new fields, and the Knoxville Southern
will bring IN the iron, the marble and
the timber The Athens and Tellico
Plains road is already at the door of
the richest iron mines of the south.
The rainbow OF hope spans the skies,
and the tabled pot OF gold, buried at its
foot, has been found. The world has
known that we have climate which
tempts people to our vallies and noun.
tains, and now it is known that clim-
ate is not the only inducement we
have to offer by far.
With all the people of East Tennes.
see, and with our brethren OF South
western Virginia and Western North
Carolina, the JOURNAL rejoices over
the propects-that hope is ending in
full fruition.

Henry ward Beecher,s sister.

New York letter to the Philadelphia
Times: Mrs. Isabella Beecher Hooker
has been an interesting figure in New
York Tor the past week or two. The
sister OF Henry Ward Beecher sat on the
grand stand near the president during the
parade on the second day of the centen-
NAL, the ticket which entitled her to that
position having been coaxed out of the
committee without money and without
price by the princess of wheedlers, Mary
Seymour Howell, the lecturer and manip-
ulator of legislatures. Mrs. Howell tied
the yellow ribbon of woman suffrage fast
in Mrs. Hooker's buttonhole and helped
her up the steps to fiaunt that little en-
blem right in the face of Harrison. From
her conspicuous position Mrs. Hooker's
likeness to Beecher was very noticeable
and often remarked on. The outlines of
the face. the nose and the shape of the
forehead are almost identical. Mrs.
Hooker has her brothers eyes, but her
hair has not whitened as did the preach
er's. 1t is still abundant and is gathered
in an old fashioned knot behind and fast
ened by an antique high backed tortoise
shell comb. Mrs. Hooker is one of the
brightest and decidedly the most eccen-
trio of the bright and eccentric Beecher
family. She wears always a little ~reticule
fastened to her side, and looks like a
briGht-eyed, decidedly energetic and very
clever little grandmother. Her last pub.
lie appearances in New York were made
two years ago, when she made addresses
advocating the appointment of women as
policemen and other equally sweeping in

PHILADELPHIA, May 25.-Edward
Brady, a lawyer of West Philadelphia,
has a daughter who has no equal for
pluck and courage. After having been
precipitated down a thirty-foot embank-
ment in the dark at Berwin last night to
the track of the Pennsylvania railroad, her
body pinned to the ties by the debris of a
wrecked phaetou and a struggling horse,
SO that she could not move, she lay there
while the western express train came
laundering on and never tainted. Fortu-
nately her head was nearly six inches
from the rail. She ielt the scalding heat
Of the fire chamber as the engine dashed
by, but smiled when she was released and
wanted to Chamber up the bank herself.
Miss Brady and II. II. Ward started
Thursday morning for a twenty-five mile
drive TO Winchester and thereabouts. Mr..
Ward il a photographer, and went out to
obtain some landscapes. just after dark
they started for home by way of Paola
and Lancaster pike. Before reaching
Berwin station the road turns abruptly to
the right at a clump of bushes. Ward
got out and went to the horses head, but
the animal began to back toward the en-
bankment.
Ward ran to the phaeton and tried to
rescue Miss Brady. but too late, George
w. johnson and his brother William,
who live on the other side of the embank-
ment, came rushing down and across the
track, bringing a lantern. Suddenly.
from Philadelphia, came the rumble OF
the express train. One OF the johnson {
seized the lantern and sprinted down the
track lust as the headlight cleaned
around the curve. HeIvaived the light
frantically. The engineer saw there wa:
trouble and put on the brakes. Mr..
Ward called 10 Miss Brady and asked il
she could move herself, and she answered
mo-" A neighbor who had Joined the
party added more dispair by crying, my
God, the girl will be killed" Then the
two men sprang TO one side, the train
crashed into tie horse and phacton, both
OF which projected over the rails. The
train came TO a stop lust before the last
two cars reached the debris.
MIR. Ward. by this time frantic, sprang
forward, expecting to sec her beheaded.
Before he could reach her he heard her
voice saying she was all right. She had
never lost her nerve while the hot breath
of the engine snorted in her face and tore
away the phaeton and horse from on top
of her. Miss Brady was easily extricated
now, and although her shoes had been
torn from her feet she was led to a iuttIng
stone, where she sat down. One of the
horses feet had been cut off and three of
his legs were broken. He seemed insen-
sible and did not groan.
The train remained in the cut over an
hour and the conductor e~ndeavorcd to
persuade Miss Brady to come to town in
a special train fitted with a coach. She
refused. said she was all right, even at
tempted a pleasantly or two, and walked
to DIR. Atkins drug store, where her
wounds were dressed. She had quite a
severe scalp wound and a large confusion
on her forehead.

ANOTHER SFR4NGE FACT


The Douglas RepuJlican brings the
necessity of the extension of the Chey-
enne & Northern very forcibly before its
readers in the following item of news:
Ii. E~ichelbcrger, u popular -four and
feed man purchased a car load of -four
this week from Greeley, Col From
Greeley it was hauled to Columbus and
up to Norfolk; from there to Douglas.
The freight on the car was 1923 40. Just
think OF it. The idea of shipping twice
nearly across the state OF Nebraska to
reach Douglas. If the Cheyenne &
Northern was completed the remaining
few miles to Douglas, Colorado could find
good market for much OF her farm pro-
duce in central Wyoming. As it now is
-four can be laid down about as cheap
from eastern Dakota as from Colorado
points, and flour has been sold here by
the car load from Huron, Oak. We are
certainly badly in need of better railroad
facilities and must have them if we would
flourish"
1t is such practical bits of information
IS the foregoing which brings this matter
of the Cheyenne & Northern extension
most strongly to the attention of the PEG.
pie.
There is a gap OF only thirty sever
miles to fill between the present terminu.
ofthe Cheyenne & Northern and tn,
Wyoming Central. There is no Difficult
construction work to be done along tn,

would be far reaching to the railroad com
