HIS NECK BROKEN.
By Jumping From Train While In No
tIon--Insta ntIS Killed

By Jumping from Train While In No
tIon---Insta utly KILLED.
AUGUSTA, Ga, Sept. PA sad acci-
dent indeed was that which happened
to a young man named Daniels at Ber-
zelia on the Georgia railroad Su.i1Ioy
morning. He was returning home TO
spend the Sabbath with his father and
mother, and instead of the anticipated
pleasure of loved ones greeting, he met
a cruel fate. The young mans full name
is y. a. Daniels. He was II years old,
and his home was Berzelia.
The young man has been employed for
some time as section hand on the
Georgia railroad, with headquarters at
Carr's on the Macon branch. During
last week he secured pass to 60 home
to spend Sunday with his family. He
came from Carr's on Saturday night on
a train as far as Camak, at which place
he got on the night express coming to-
ward Augusta.
When the train approached BerZelia
early Sunday morning, young Daniels
saw his father in his buggy waiting to
receive him. AS Berzelia is only flag
station at which the train does not stop
unless tagged down or unless there is a
passenger who wishes to get off, the ex-
press hardly slacks it's speed. Young
Daniels had pass, but did not give it
up to the conductor or say anything
about desiring to leave the train at the
station. He thought it unnecessary
probably, having determined to jump
from the rapidly moving cars.
He made the jump, but unfortunately
the poor fellow miscalculated the dis
tance or speed of the train, and in place
of landing on his feet struck, just the
reverse, on his head. His head struck
q crosstie on side track, death result
ing almost instantly.
The sad accident occurred before his
fathers eyes, who rushed to his sons
assistance, but the lad was already be-
yond human aid. The father returned
home not with his sons joyous voice
sounding in his ears as ne expected, but
with his ifeless body-Augusta Chron-
icle.

An Incendiary Speech.

WASHINGTON, Sept. Especial:
John NJ. Langston, whom Speaker Reed
and the Republican party forced into the
House, was serenaded here last night by
his colored followers, and during his
speech in response gave utteralce to
the following sentiment: Eight million
people LOOK on tonight, proud OF this
victory of the colored race. Sixty mil
lion men thank God that they belong to

DiSCRACEFUL SCENES
At the Annual Gathering of the San
Gy Springs Camp Meeting.

Gy Springs Camp Meeting.
ANDERSON, S. c., Sept 22-Sandy
Springs camp meeting has been for
years popular gathering for all kinds
of people. Religious services are con-
Quoted morning, noon and night for
four days, but there are a great many
who 60 there that never hear word
they 60 there for the social feature only,
and it has always been very pleasant.
Everybody went-the very best people
of the town and County, and at times
some disturbing elements were found
there also. This year the meeting was
unusually largely attended, and it be-
gan under the most favorable auspices;
but to-day there is cloud as black as
the darkness Of Egypt over the place,
and there IS no more fun there. This
has been caused by long list Of TRACE
dies. all of which occurred In less than
twenty-tour hours and turned the fes-
tive scene into one of gloom and sorrow
and withered the gay garlands OF plea
sure. Two of these may result in
murder and one Is a fatal accident.
The frstof this bloody list is the acct
dent which has probably even now re-
suited in the death Of Mr.. John J.
Cooley Of WILLIAMSON. N. Cooley
drove over to Sandy Springs to attend
the meeting yesterday. Before he
reached the camp grounds his horse
took fright and Mr.. Cooley lost control
Of the reinS. and in the runaway which
followed he was thrown out OF the bug
gy and his head dashed against stone
and the skull fractured. He was taken
up and carried to a gentleman's house
near by and medical aid summoned.
1t was thought then that he would die.
The latest reports received were up to
last night, there being only an occa-
sional chance Of getting news from
there. He was then still alive, out the
doctor thought ne would be dead by this
morning.
William Simpson and Bob Frasier
two employees OF the PcnGlaton fac
tory, became involved In roT which
may END fatally 10 both. Simnson told
his sister not 10 go with FTasier be-
cause he vas drunk. Frasier heard
this from the girl and sought Simpson
TO lay him out. In the ToT which fol-
lowed, Frasier shot Simpson belo y the
right eye. the bail coming out al the
temple. Simpson crushed Frasier's skull
with rock. ETasier died in the after
noon Simpson is still alive. The bull
let went below the eyeball without cut
ting It. So far the sight is not believed
to be impaired If the wound does not
prove fatal.
It is probable that after this series Of
accidents the annual camp meeting at
Sandy Springs will be discontinued. It |
was a decided relief to everybody when
the meeting was uyer.-Columbia Reg

A BAE.ON'S DEATH.
a European y obleman Meets an Ignoble
Death,


SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 21.-The
steamer Walla Walla, which has arrived
from Victoria and Puget Sound ports,
brings news Of the discovery By hunters
of the remains of al Austrian noble
man in the Moran mountains. He was
known as Baron Won Strauss Two hun
ters, named Gentle and Hartenberg,
were the discoverers. They we're on
pheasant shooting expedition, and were
attracted to the bottom of dark can
on by fierce fight in pack Of coyotes.
The brutes fed on the approach of
the hunters, and the latter discovered
that the cause of the battle was the
mangled and half-devoured body Of a
human being. One leg was gone
and both arms were torn off. Both
hunters had seen the unfortunate man
during his walderings about the mouu-
tains.
He left his home in Buda Pesth, Aus
tria, two years ago to make a tour of the
world. His fathers estate was in pro-
cess of settlement and his start was
made with the first installme1t of his
Inheritance. His first stop was in New
York, and from there he went to Chi
cago, where he lost good deal Of mon
ey in real estate specuiations. He
came to San Francisco last spring and
lost more money. When near the end
of his purse, he wrote home for funds,
but his appeal to his relatives only re-
suited in the discovery that his brother
had misappropriated and sold the fami-
ly estate and had fled to India.
The baron worked his way TO Spokane
Falls and then gave himself up to the
life Of a tramp. He made several efforts
to obtain and hold employment, but he
was unified for work of any sort and
finally became decided vagabond,
living on the charity of farmers and
hunters. He was we'll supplied with
fashionable and expensive clothing,
much OF which he used TO reward pep

st. Paul after short sojourn among the
Athenians. pronounced them very relig-
iOus people. Your correspondent having
sojourned few days in Chicago, has come
to the same conclusion in regard to the peo-
pie of this city. But they do not, like the
Athenians, worship gods many and lords
many, neither have they any altar to an I'M
known god. The Chicagans worship but
one god. and they know who he is. HIS
name is Chicago. His altar is on every
street corner. in every home. in every heart.
And there is no -heartedness in their
devotions. They pray more than three
times day; his praise is continually on
their lips; they glorify him in all they do.
Ask the average Chicagan who made the
world, and he will answer ''Chicago."
Who rules the world? Chicago" Who is
the world? "ChicagO."
They tell you the most marvellous stories
of what Chicago has done; and stories be-
yond all marvel of what she is going to do.
A gentleman was relating to me one day,
how his father ''could have bought the
whole district around here" at $3.50 per
acre. remarked that it was worth that
much per square inch now. ''Well, Sir"
he said, ''you have noticed that corner back
here" II had noticed it of course), "well.
sir, that piece of ground was sold the other
day for 81, 600. OOO." 1t was not a large
corner either.
At another time. as they were picturing
to me the rapid growth of the city; how. in
the memory of men living, they had pried
wagons out of mud holes down near the
Court House. and shot ducks somewhere in
the neighborhOOd of the Chamber of Com

be the metropolis of America. The answer
in substance was: well, 1 should say so;
she'll be the metropolis of the world, and

London is over 5.OOO,OOO.) After that 1
ventured no more guesses on the future of
Chicago.
