A SERIOUS WRECK.

A Train Goes Through a Bridge.
 EVANSVILLE, Ind, Sept. 17.-A serious wreck occurred late last evening on the Evansville and Terre Haute railroad near Patoka.
 The south-bound freight train No. 53. heavily loaded, was precipitated into Patoka river, the bridge over that stream giving way under the weight of the train.
 The engine and four cars passed safely over, but the remainder of the train plunged through the yawning gap on the track. The cars piled one upon the other and many were wrecked.
 No lives have been reported lost, although several trainmen are known to have gone down in the wreck. A wrecking train was sent out from this city.

Lively Times AL the Aon0on DOcKss
 LONDON, Sept. 1.-The advice of the lead CTS of the strike to the dock laborers to obs servo all the provisions of the agreement un- der which they returned to work, appeared this morning to have been effectual. Early this morning the men appeared at the docks and for the most part went to work peace fully with the "blacklegs." Very few men assembled outside the docks and they were quiet.
 The strikers and 'blacklegs" on the south west India dock became involved in dis- pute, and the men who had been on strike drove the sblaoklegs" out of the dock: The police interferred and quelled the disturb' ance. The strikers then withdrew and the "blacklegs" resumed work.

 ST. LOUIS, Sept. TIA brutal prize fight occurred at the saloon of the Daly brothers last night between Thomas E. Jackson and Ed Ahearn. It resulted in the death of Jack son, who was IS years old. The affair has created intense excitement, as prominent peo- pie will likely become involved. The referee was tho sporting editor of leading morning paper.
 over the saloon where he fought, his face un- recognizable, ,and his mother and two brothers alone with their dead, while Chief of Police Hubler has ordered tho arrest of all parties concerned in the affair. Jackson was we'll known in fighting circles as Jack King, but his parents were ignorant of his pugilistio ambition. Ahearn is gas6tter by trade and . fighter by inclination.
 Ed. Ahern, the survivor of the fight, was found late this afternoon and lodged in jail. He seems to be proud of the game fight he made, but asserts that Jackson must have had heart disease as he did not hit him hard enough to kill him. Later in the day Dan and Jack Daily, proprietors of the saloon where the fight occurred. Mike Mooney, one of the seconds. Abe Quincy and Steve A. Malloy, time keepers were captured and sev' eral more will likely be behind the bars by morning. The prosecuting attorney is of the opinion that murder in the first degree may be shown with those connected with the fight as accessories, and there are many uneasy sports in St. Louis tonight.

Babies to right of them, babies to left

Yesterday was babies day at the EX-
position. and they took full advantage
of it. This branch of the infant indus
tries of the Northwest was we'll repre-
scented in the display which was ar
ranged on tables in the south gallery
of the third story. There were
fat babies, fatter babies, very fat ba-
bies and babies that were merely
plump, bat there wasn't thin baby in
the whole sixty. There were red
headed babies, black-headed babies,
towheaded babies and baldheaded ba-
bies. And to each fond mother there
was one that talked prettier. Sweeter
and more lovable than all the rest. The
prizes were awarded by popular vote.
For" said Col. Gore, lit would be
hard thing to pick out proper board OF
Judges to make a decision in the matter.
People who have kids of their own would
be preiudiced and bachelors would never
do" Therefore each visitor was entitled
to vote as to which was the>priZe infant.
and it is shrewdly suspected that some
slipped in more than one ballot for their
favorite.
OF course all the little dears were just
too lovely for anything, but some found
more favor with the people than others
did, and there is an underlined rumor
that number five will be likely to show
up with a good majority of the votes on
the boys ticket, and it won't be en-
tirely on account of his red
hair, big blue eyes and smil-
ing, chubby face either. for
more than one man unblushingly con-
fessed the petite figure, big. deep eyes
and handsome face of the baby's young
mother captured his vote.
Some Of the babies smiled, some
really laughed, and others got fright
ened at the number of people they saw
and the strange noises they heard, and
cried as if their little hearts would
break.
(Which one hOllers the most and acts
the meauest?'' was the snappish in
curry of brisk, sharp-featured man.
who evidently disliked children. II
guess it's that little heathen." he
continued as chubby cherub lOokedat
him, and set up wall. Whats his
number? I'll vote for him, that's all
babies are good for anyhow. and so he
ought to have the prize" and he cast a
ballot for the crying baby.
Over 1900 votes are thought to have
been cast, and so no count was at
tempted last night. 1t will be made and
announced to-day.
The prizes are as follows: First
prize, boys, silver cup from Eustis
Bros; second, ton of fuel from PetrOle
Fuel company. First prize, girls, baby
carriage from Janney, Semple & Co.;
second, baby's toilet set in plush case,

The old lady who would not allow her son
to have fiddle, but was willing he should
have violin. is a fair example of the foolish
prejudice which very many people have
refuse to take Chloride of Sodium, but would
use salt, which is the same thing. Now 1t Is
this class of people who usually have deep
prejudice against the words alcohol or
whisky. They know that somebody has
abused the use of these articles, and hence
they denounce them altogether, in spite of
the fact that the best scien lists and the lead
ing physicians of the present day advocate
and use them constantly.
Prof. Austin Flint, of Bellevue New York;
College, says: THE judicious use of alco-
holic stimulants is one of the striking char
acteristies of progress in the practice of med
icine during the last half century,"
Prot. Joseph Parrish, the distinguished
author, says; We know that alcohol will
steady the heart, slow the pulse, warm the
skin, calm excitement, and we ought to
use it,
Prof NJ G. Greenleaf, the well-known
author, says: San intelligent comprehension
of the action of alcohol and whisky, will
have greater influence in promoting tenn
perance than adhesion to a dogma
Such high scientific authorities show that
pure whisky should be used as a household
remedy. No father or mother need hesitate
for a moment to administer Duffy's Pure
Malt Whisky to the children, and it is simply
bigotry to allow the word whisky, which is
the name of this medicine, to stand in the
way of the wonderful benefits to be derived
from its use. II should be remembered, how
ever, that these effects are only to be secured
by the use of pure medicinal whisky like
Dutfy's and care should be taken to use no
other.

That Is the Assumption of the

Ed A. Stevens, the stepfather of the

propounding from the depths of his
stores of legal knowledge that the city
is without all official paper. The council
elected the Evening Star official paper
less than year ago, when the Journals
contract ran out. When the Star was
absorbed by the Tribune few weeks
ago. Mr.. Blethen sent communication
to the council. offering to make any
arrangements to carry out the contract
In the Star that would be legal, OF, if
the city preferred, he agreed to substi-
tute the Tribune for the Star as official
paper. This latter proposition the
council accepted and the resolution by
which the transfer was made was drawn
by City Attorney Russell, who believes
that the contract with the Tribune is
just as legal as that with the Star. The
city clerk is still printing the proceed
ingS of the council in the Tribune. If.
however, there is force in the point
raised by Mr.. Stevens, whose general
knowledge of the city charter is un-
doubtedly as intimate as that of any
lawyer in the city, some trouble may be

THEFT Is CHARGED.
More About the Recently Dis
charged Capt. Harvey.


charged Capt. Harvey.
Each day now brings to light some
new act in the long list of high crimes
and misdemeanors with which Capt. R.
r. Harvey, of the Minneapolis police
force, now stands charged. The latest
and worst sensation developed yester-
day. and is nothing more or less than
the suspicion, founded on the best of
circumStantial evidence, that Harvey
is a thief to the extent of
over $500. This adds another
ton to the weight of evidence
which goes to show that the captain
will never be seen in Minneapolis
again.
The story as told by the police is as
follows: On Saturday. July 81, man
named Andrew Ludwig was arrested
for drunkenness and locked at the cen-
trail station. On Sunday he desired to
be released on bail. but as his friends
desired to have him confined for a time
on account of his habitual drunkenness,
they would not put up for his release,
and he had no money himself. He had,
however, certificate of deposit Oh the
watch valued at $50. The judge said
that if any of the officers cared to adj
vance the S25 on the collateral the man
would be released. Capt. Harvey put
up the SIS and took charge of the prop
erty. The next day Anderson went to
the workhouse for sixty days, and his
property remained, as was supposed, in
the safe. while Capt. Harvey's $50 was
returned to him. ,
Twice during his confinement Ander-,,
son has sent for his watch and the GER
tifcate of deposit, but both times Capt.
Harvey said to let him come per-
sonally and claim them when he
was released. A day or two
ago Anderson heard of Harvey's de-
parture and became very much excited.
Yesterday when Supt. West came to
town he again sent for his property and
Lieut.. Dan Day made search for it
and was unable to find any trace of
either watch or certificate. The safe
failed to show where it had been. andT
suspecting something wrong visit was,
maze to the bank, where it was d;scoY-t
cred that some one, presumably Harvey
caShed the paper on Aug. %.
On learning of the facts in the caSe,.
Supt. Bracket telegraphed to all the
cities where he thought Harvey might
have gone, and if such thing is posi-
BILE he will be captured.

A WILL CONTEST
Imminent Over the Estate of
Christian Apelt.

Imminent over the Estate on
Christian Apelt.
On the 9th of last July Christian
Apelt. who at the time lived with his
son William Apelt, at 1715 Eleventh av-
enue south. died, and his will bequeath7
ing all his property to his son William
except $50, which was given to his
daughter, Mrs. B. D. Bolton, was pro-
bated soon after. Now the daughter
comes forward and through her attOr-'
ney, r. l.. Kenny, makes application to
have the probate set aside and the case
reopened. She alleges that she had no
knowledge of will having been pro-
bated. She also claims that on the day
the will is dated, July 26. her father
was in dying condition and not cap
able of making will. The physician
who was in attendance on the
deceased makes affidavit that Chris
tan Apelt was in a dying
condition on July &c, and incapable of
performing the act. The attendant
nurse, Charles FL. Joss, also adds that
during the day named he saw no one in
the sick room but the physician and a
clergyman. On the strength of these
affidavitS the probate court yesterday
made an order requiring William Apelt
to appear and show cause why the pro-
bate of the will should not be set aside
and the sister allowed to contest it. The
estate is not large, about $4,000, but the
irregularities alleged make it interest
