It ia but a short time ago that a pro-
lessor in one Of the leading colleges of San
Francisco slapped the face Of q rich bank
sr who had published a long and bitter
stack upon his (the professor's) venera-
BILE father, a divine of great eminence
and fame. The professor was at once
shot down, although he was entirely I'M
armed, andshad informed his adversary
of the fact, Yet the jury declared that
1t was a case of justihable homicide, and
the accused left the court without a stain
on his character.
Even the children, aping their elders,
carry pistols and knives with the utmost
nonchalance, and a few weeks ago, when
the principal Of n Of the public schools
had occasion to administer some much
needed corporal punishment to a lad Of
12, the young rascal drew a huge re-
volver on the head master, and the serv-
ices of the chief of police had to be called
in for the purpose of disarming him.
AT the request of thesterrifed princi-
pal the police subjected all the pupils
present to apersonal search and examine
ton, with the result that thirty-fve re-
Yolyers Of all sizes, from the "Colt navy
revolver to the 's22 caliber popgun," be-
sides a dozen knives Of murderous ap-
pearance, were seized and conhscated.-

THE WORK OF FTEN6S
A New York Central Passen.
ger Train Wrecked.
One Car Turns a Complete
Somersault.
Another Terrible Story Of Rus
sian Prison Life.
A paa wreeE, put so One k,IIe.

1a INV
ALBANY, Sept. Sat midnight a sue
cesstul attempt at train wrecking was made
on the New York Central near Green
bush. Luckily no loss of life or serious
injuries resulted. The train wrecked was
on its way to Montreal and consisted of
eight ~sleepers, well filed. 1t vas derailed,
but barring the shaking up Of the passen-
gers and the b~ruising OF a half dozen or
SO, nothing more serious than the wreck
ing of oars resulted. The train was
twenty-five minutes late and running
thirty mules an hour, Wien the engine
struck an obstruction and was lifted into
the air, and the whole train thrown from
the track. The engineer and fireman
stuck to their posts. The first sleeper,
containing twenty-five passengers, slid
down an embankment and turned on its
side. None OF the passengers we're iu-
jured outside of a few bruises. The sec
ond coach turned a somersault, landing in
the ditch bottom side up. In this car
was only one passenger, Miss Garakan of
Brooklyn, and the conductor and porter.
Neither were dangerously hurt, though
Miss Garakan received a severe blow on
the head and was the most hurt of all the
passengers. The third car was thrown
across the ditch. About eight passen-
gers were in this coach. The other five
sleepers did not leave the road bed. A
number of passengers were cut and
bruised in extricating themselves from the
wreck.
An investigation as to the cause
of the disaster showed a rail
jammed into the cattle guards, wedged
with timbers and securely held with fish
plates. The whole arrangement was
placed in a s~lanting position so as to lift
the train clear off the track. The result
showed that the judgment of the fiends
who placed the obstruction on the track
was unerring and their purpose was sue
~cessfully accomplished. Continuing the
investigation revealed a similar obstruc-
ton on the southbound track, a little way
below. No stone will be left unturned to
discover the perpetrators OF the dastardly
outrage. A relief train brought all the
passengers back here. They number six
ty-three.
1t was evidently the intention to wreck
the freight trains soon due on both tracks,
as the regular Montreal passenger had
passed and the one wrecked was an extra.
A reward Of IS, 900 is offered for the ap-
D%rehension Of the miscreants.
The executive board OF the knights OF
Labor Is in consultation on the question
OF offering 81 900 reward for the arrest Of
the perpetrators.

Street Car Manner. IN Fr.noo.

The hog claims even the historically
polite France for his own. At a discus.
sion by the town council Of Havre upon
the regulations Cor city car lines one
member complained that In these days
men sitting in a car never thought Of
giving their places TO women, even
though the latter might have to stand
outside on the platforms in the rain. He
moved the adoption of a bylaw empow-
ering conductors to compel men seated
In the interior to surrender their places
to women outside, Several other coun-
cillors gallantly supported the motion,
but the majority concluded that the
temper of the age would not permit any
such social revolution. The episode has
excited considerable attention in Paris,
where there is general mourning over the
decadencs of French manners. - Ex-

BRAzEN TO THE LAST.
Governor warren's Stump Speaking AT
Green River.

Special Dispatch to The Leader.
GREEN RIVER. Wyo., Sept. 5.-The
great Republican hippodrome took place
here tonight. Governor Warren.
G. D. Clark and j. B. Bedford with .
host of lesser lights from Rock Springs,
including a troop of singers, succeeded af-
ter a days canvass of the town and the
promise Of a ball after the speaking, in
getting quite a comfortable crowd together
in the court house. Mr.. Clark spoke
first. His speech is characterized as lack
ing both logic and weight. He demanded
of the people their support of the Repub-
lican ticket because Western states were
generally Republican, and because the
Republican party had given Wyoming
statehood. No attempt was made to dis
cuss the issues Of the day. Governor
Warren was next introduced and made
reference to the charges" against him
brought by a certain wing of the Demo-
cratic party and press" He did not
deny those charges but said if anyone
present, Democrat or Republican. was not
satisfied on any point if he or she would
stand up and state the point he would
discuss it with him or her. There was
but little enthusiasm for the governor.
Mr.. Bedford made a humorous address.
but with no particular effect. After
Judge Corn's mastery speech of two
days CO., the contrast with tonight's pro-
ceedings is the most noticeable. The
speakers go to Rock Lprings tomorrow.

The number of exhibition bathers who
hang their clothes on a hickory limb, but
don't go nea the water. is daily on the
increase, and during a walk along the
beach at Atlantic City one can readily
pick out hundreds of young girls and
even mature DANES arrayed in the most
attractive and costly bathing robes who
don't even wet their dainty feet in the
surf, but prefer to gayly trip in groups
along the strand or gracefully recline on
the warm sands.
They, as a rule, wear collars and cuffs,
jaunty little caps, neat slippers, and are
invariably tight laced, They are as care
full of details in donning this beach cos
tune IS IL they were dressing for a ball,
and certainly appear far more captivat-
ing. These fair and frolicsome visitors
are known as exhibition bathers, but they
don't battle.
A new fad among this particular class
Is to go carriage riding in their brief at
tire, and it is q familiar sight on the ave
nues daily to see a bevy of pretty girls
clad in handsome surf costumes urging
along a weary beach steed, and evident,
ly enjoying the diversion.-Cor. Phila.

One Of the features Of Brooklyn life
among people to whom the expenditure
of small sums is a matter Of jealous in
terest is a trip on the new electric car
which has been put on a road that runs
to Fort Hamilton. There is an odd mix
ture Of heavy browed scientific men and
picnic parties on the car during the morn
ing runs. The scientific men talk cleo
tricity until the air is blue, and the e1-
cursionists eat peanuts and wonder what
makes the a go. Not infrequently
crowds of heavy financiers from New
York are to be found swooping up and
down on the car, observing its work
with beetled brows. One of the engineers,
in speaking Of it the other day, said that
he had been questioned SO much about
electricity that he had come to the con-
clusion that very few people knew any
thing about it.-New York Sun.

men IN excavating for the east channel
span Of the new bridge being constructed
by the Wheeling Bridge company. The
bone was found thoroughly imbedded IN
blue clay at the bottom of the excava-
ton fifteen feet deep and fully eight feet
below the depth of the river. The exca-
walton is but a short distance from the
river, and is soil that had probably been
undisturbed for ages. The piece of

by some two or three feet in length, is

Names That overcAmo q Hotel Clerk.
Among the many thousands of proper
names annually written, more or less
legibly-usually less-upon the register
of a hotel like the Grand Pacific, pretty

tiers is found. Hotel clerks become

cifc, ran up against a combination the
other day that laid him out.

asked If any one had called on them

registered before Cores came on duty
and he did not know them.

going around under the chapsronage OF
that social Wellington, Mrs. Paran Ste
vens. He is generally reported TO be =
nice boy. with that strong vein of good
sense that characterizes most Of his fam
lily. But these young gentlemen, brought
up on Pinard's suppers and Klunder's
flowers, have a good deal of American
grit in them after all. One night last
week a small sloop went ashore on the
rocks at the foot of the cliff. Although
the wind was blowing half a gale, and
dinners were in progress at several of the
cliff cottages, a flock of young fellows in
evening dress appeared and worked like
Trojans getting people ashore. That
seems to be the way with the gilded
youth everywhere. Under the varnish
Of a~ffectaton and imitation comes the
real stufSmsnliness and courage. :
