Brakeman Gillen Relates His
Experience.
Three Miners Killed by the
Explosion of Gas.

READING, Sept. 20.-When daylight
on the Philadelphia & Reading railroad
the full realization OF the Undesirable
horrors was first fully revealed. The
engine lay in five feet of water. The
body of Engineer White was piuned un.
der the heavy ironwork. his arms ex-
tended in appeal above the water. Next
lay the tender on its side, then the bpg-
gage and mail cars and passenger coaches,
the timbers broken and the cars over
turned, pinniDg the unrescued victims in
a death embrace at the bottom OF the
river. Searching Tor bodies continued all
night, and a number were taken out. The
body of Geo. r. Kaercher, general coun-
sci of the Reading railroad, was taken out
early this morning badly d%isiigured. The
scene on the banks of the river was
CHASTITY. The long row of dead increased
as one after another the bodies were
brought out. 1t was difficult to move the
ponderous cars. Thousands fiocked to the
scene, willing to assist, but their aid was
of very little service, as experienced men

forenoon twenty bodies had been taken
cut, and the list of injured now numbers
about fifty.
Brakeman Michael Gilen tells this
story: After the first shock | looked out
the forward window and could see win
dows being knocked in the river and heard
the sound of cracking timbers as they
ground together like kindling wood. | saw
the entire side OF the smoking car ahead
of mime torn out and then turned back,
thinking my last ome had come.
Many OF the passengers in our car were
screaming aud several Of them had
climbed half way out the windows. |
shouted to them to keep quiet and the
next instant our car was struck and upset
down the bank, but not overturned. See.
ing no immediate danger for those in our
car, | Jumped out into the river, which
was about five feet deep there, aud worked
my way to the forward part OF the wreck.
ln one OF the wrecked cars | heard a
man shouting for help. Pm not
caught and I'm not hurt, but
| can't get out" he said. He was
penned in the car like a rat IN a box and
the wood was blazing all about him, |
secured a bucket and began throwing W 4
ter on the fire, aud | think the man was
saved. | had to work alone for some
time, slthough there was a crowd of peo-
pie standing on the bank above the wreck
to whom | shouted TO come and help me.
They refused, however, and it was some
time before other help arrived"
The body of an unknown man who was
among the last taken u of the wreck
was identified as George Lambert lama
qua, This places the number of fatalities
at twenty one. All the wrecked cars
we're taken out of the river tonight and
it is now believed that no more bodies are
in the water, and that this ends the death
list. The coroner su~bpoenaed a jury today
and will hold IN inquest early next week.

Merely a low price is not an evidence Of
cheapness in merchandise, and quotations
of clothing prices are of all things most
deceptive. We do not keep what is called
cheap clothing. We always have some
garments tormen and boys at low prices;
but we get them by marking down the
broken lots and slow-selling lots of good
quality. These bargain garments adyer-
tise themselves. If you want a scryiceable
Overcoat, Suit or odd Coat, Vest or pair
of Trousers for very little money, we can
usually supply much better value than
the price asked would buy in the regular
way. Most people, however, want the
best clothes they can afford to wear, and
our rightly-made garments are intended
to suppIant the custom work. Therefore
you cannot Judge OF the prices without
seeing the clothes.

Bull HaggertY and Ben Jimmy Con-
norton, each fatally shot the other. The
tragedy occurred in one of the estab.
lishments owned by ex Chief of Police
McGarigle, who acquired much notoriety
by his escape from the sheriff during the
famous Doodle trials. By & singular coinoi-
dence Harry Narnell, ex-warden of the
insane asylum, who was convicted of
"~bOodling' at the same trial, is asso-
ciated with tonight's ARRAY. Haggerty
and Connorton had a preliminary a~lterca
ton in Narnells saloon, in which Connor-
ton was terribly thrashed. Meeting again
in McGariGle's place the fight was re-
newed, when ConnOrton, finding himself
being worsted, sent a bullet through Hag-
GaTty's stomach. The wounded man
drew a revolver and put a shot into Con
n%orton's breast. Physicians say both men
will die.

HOSTILITIES RESUMED.
The Dempsey and Raisden Fac
lions Fighting Again.
Bloody Row Between Italians
and a Sheriffs Posse.
Several of the Former Killed
and a Number Wounded.

CATTLEsBURG, Ky, Sept. 20.-The
Brewer, Dempsey and Raisden war
broke out again in Logan county, WA,
Wednesday at the mouth Of Pigeon
creek in a general fight between the two
factions. james Dempsey shot and in
stantly killed George Walter, a member
of the Raisden faction, and one Clark was
severely cut in the arm. The particulars
which led to the killing date back some
years. Both factions met at a sheriff s
sale Monday and Lon Dempsey was shot
by his brother John, but not fatally in
jured. Both sides are armIng them
selves and a renewal of hostilities is
expected.
Advices of a reliable nlture received
today from Louisa. KY, say that on
Twelve Pole creek, Wayne county, Va,
Friday. a terrible fight occurred between
a sheriff S posse and a gang of Italian
railroad laborers in which several Italians
were killed and u number wounded. Some
weeks ago a contractor on the Norfolk &
Western railroad named Keogh, went
away leaving numerous creditors, among
the number being the Italians. A new
AohhA AOOh POod1o9Apu " III dbd
doned works and put a number of laborers
to work i'll a cut formerly worked by the
Italians. The latter refused to allow any
one to work in the cut until they had re-
ceived pay for the work done under
Keogh and proceeded to Dust the new
lab Irers. Three times the new labOrers
were run out. The contractor applied to
the court for protection and was
furnished a posse of about a dozen
men headed by the sheriff OF
Wayne county. Friday the sheriff
appeared and made an attempt to arrest
the Italians. who fiercely resisted aud an
unequal combat resulted, with forty or
more Italians on one side. armed with
stones, knives and revolyers, and the
sheriff s posse on the other. The Italians
fought from behind trees. stones and
whatever would shield a mans body. The
firing became general and lasted some
minutes. Several of the Italians were
killed and a number wounded. The
sheriff s men escaped with a few severe
bruises. About twenty Italians were
arrested and taken to jail and the remain
der escaped in the woods. The scene Of
the fight is forty or fifty miles from here
and remote. from railroad and telegraph
communication.

Some years ago n blind boy residing in
Chicago constructed n miniature house
inside nm ordinary four ounce medicine
bottle. The building was made up OF
forty pieces Of wood. all neatly fitted
and glued together. It would have
puzzled a man with two good eyes to put
the pieces in the bottle without the task
Of putting them together. As wonder
full as the above may seem it is only a
part OF the remarkable achievements of
this sightless lad.
After completing the house to his salts
faction he set about fastening the cork
in the bottle, but how he accomplished
the startling feat has ever remained a
mystery. Inside the bottle below the
neck a small wooden peg was driven
through the cork, which extended far
enough on each side Of the stopper to
prevent 1t being removed from the bot
tie. The boy is unable to explain the
astonishing piece of ingeniousness.-St
Louis Republic.

THE SPECIAL ELECTION

IL Will probably cost something like
5000 TO the taxpayers Of Laramie
county to hold a special election to ill the
single vacancy IN our senatorial delega-
ton. Those who have the interest Of the
county most at heart feel that the present
is a DANGEROUS time to be s~horthanded in
the legislature. The spportionment on
the basis of the federal census viii her
be made and il will stand for Eve years
until the inst state census is taken. In
der the compromise effected in the con.
stitutional convention we we're given nine
legislative representatives when the data
then AT hand showed We were entitled TO
twelve. For fear the constitution might
fail Of adoption it was thought best to
create no ~antagpnisms AID therefore the
Laramie county delegation submitted to
an imposition.
What is to hinder it from being again
forced to submit to an imposihon7 Moth
ing. II the majority in the legislature
says we are only entitled to nine repre-
sentAtives under the new a~pportionment
Of what avail will il be to allege that un.
der the census we should be accorded
twelVe2
The vacancy was created BY a Repub-
loan resigning to accept another job.
This was a matter in which the public at
large had little OoDoern as the senator
elect resigned to accept an RppOintiYe Of.
fee. Consequently this WAS a personal
matter with the senator elect himself and
the Republican machine Of Laramie
county. The people OF Laramie county
elected Judge Riner in good faith. They
supposed he would serve them alter
having been honored with their suffrages.
They have therefore done their DUTY and
borne the expense Of e~lecting nine legis-
lative representatives. They are now one
short. but through no fault OF the peo-
ple-the fault resting entirely with the
Republican party. The people are en-.
titled to a full legislative delegation. They
have paid once for ~electing it and should
not be called upon to do SO again.
Tho Republican party OF Laramie
county should itself bear the expense of
the special election-and even then it will
not repay the people for the bad faith in
which it has acted in this matter.

Al Interesting Description of How

A Interesting Description of How .
CAbls Is Secured on Land.
We steamed of and anchored as near
In shore as we could get, opposite the
place intended for the landing place. An
was now activity on board No sooner
were we at anchor thEu q couple of boats
were dispatched for the beach, with q
party of men and the necessary tools
and implements for use on shore. On
board both picking up and paying put
gear were being made ready for action,
as they both played their part in land
ing the shore end: huge coils OF rope and
q number OF collapsed air balloons made
their appearance from below.
These balloons were inflated with air
TO their full diameter of three or four
feet. md the quarter deck of the DIAL
malta began to assume the appearance
Of n giants toy shop. Meanwhile the
shore party had firmly anchored to the
beach two large spider sheaves,- or
skeleton iron pulleys. These were placed
some two or three hundred yards apart,
forming two angles of a parallelogram,
OF which the bow and stern sheaves OF
the ship made the other two.
A rope was now carried from the stern
of the ship to the shore. and. passing
round both spider sheayes. brought back
to the ship and taken over the bow
sheave TO the picking up gear. The cable
was made fast to tho rope and paid out
slowly owe the stern, the licking up
gear meanwhile heaving in on the other
end Of the rope. and so hauling the cable
gradually ashore. The rops was wound
four or five times round the big drum of
the picking up gear. steam was turned
on. and the drum. rumbling and rever-
berating. hauled the rope in. Aft the
cable was wound four or five times
round the paying out drum, also ~reyolved
by steam in order to ease the strain.
which. with about a mile Of rope put be
tween the ships stern and her bow. is
something considerable.
As the cable leaves the stern the raison
d. etre of the air balloons becomes ap.
parent At intervals OF about fifteen or
sixteen yards one is securely dashed to
the cable. and in this way the cable Is
aoated from the ship to the shore. and
not dragged along the bottom to run the
risk OF being damaged by rocks. An
other advantage is that. IL the cable is
sagged by a cross current or tide, 1t can
readily be Strengthened by stopping the
paying put and heaving In at the bows.
