The Daring Deed Of Plueky EDgl-
neer.

PrrsBURa, Pa, October ia spe.
cial from Erie, Pa, says that a horrible
catastrophe was averted on the Lake
Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad
to day near Silver Creek through the
bravery and cool-headed conduct of an
engineer. 4 detached section of an east
bound freight train had been run into by
another section of the train, and por.
tion of the debris was thrown over on the
west bound track, just as No. 5, a fast
train, was going west. Engineer John
Burns, of Buffalo, of the passenger train,
coming down the hill at the rate Of fifty
miles an hour, cav the truck ahead and
then the freight car. He saw that an
attempt to stop his train and jump would
sacrifice the lives of 100 passengers.
His fireman had left him, and spriDging
from his seat behind the boiler, Burns
put on every pound of steam, and OPEN
ed his sand box 80 as to get a 6rmer
hold Of the rail. The iron monster gave
snort and sprang forward. threw the
truck out of the way and cut through the
freight car and debris Burns with won.
derful fortitude held the lever and in
moment cleared the obstruction, reversed
his engine and threw on the air brake.
As the train entered the wreck the
sides we're torn out of three of the coach.
es. The screams of. women rose high
above the screeching of the steam.
Although the engine VAS dismantled,
brave Engineer Burns emerged from the
debris alive, covered with scars and
bruises. Stout. hearted men embraced
the engineer Historically, realizing that
his heroism had saved the train. Only
one passenger was seriously injured, and
that was Mrs. Mary Kane, of Dennison,
Ohio. Her injuries are internal and
several of her ibis are broken. She was
placed in the Hamot Hospital at Erie.
Jos. Meyers, of Cleveland, was badly
hurt in the head. Little Susie Heitner,
daughter of David Heitner, of Chicago,
had her shoulder dislocated. News
Agent John Quinn, of Buffalo, had his
arm hurt, and a number of others we're
slightly injured.
Strange to say oot a car in the train
left the track, and Judge S. S. Burke,
president of the Toledo and Ohio Central
Railroad, who was on the train, pro.
nounced it the most wonderful escape
upon record.
After the people got quieted @. NJ.
Spitner, Boston banker, headed list,
and over four hundred dollars was pre-
sented to Engineer Burns by tho passen-
gers.

How to Escape q Mad Dog.

off people were only taught half so
much about the way to avoid mad dogs
as they are about sunstroke," said officer
Mulverhil, the other day, to Pittsburg
Dispatch reporter, "we would not often
hear of a case of hydrophobia: A good
thing to know is that mad dog
never turns aside from the course he is
running to bite anybody. So if one is
right in the path of rabid animal he
can get out of all danger by jumping to
one side and out of the path Of the dog.
But if it is absolutely impossible to get
out of the way, the man or woman should
stand perfectly still and face the dog.
He will turn aside then himself, and run
in different direction; /; whileif the per.
son in front runs away, as nine out of
ten will do, the dog will oyertake and
bite the victim. OF. course it requires
courage to stand still and face rabid
dog, terrible as this animal always looks,
but the result shows that the real danger
lies in taking flight"

A Startling Idea In Mississippi.

JACKSON, MISS, October 2o.Ihe
supplemental report of the legislative
committee relating to State boundaries
was taken up for consideration this
morning. The second and last section
thereof reads as follows:
ssThe Legislature shall have power to
consent to the acquisition of additional
territory by this State, and to make sale
of part thereof, and the Legislature may
consent to the creation of another State
or territory. to be formed, in whole or
part, of this State, whenever the consent
Of the Congress of the United States shall
be given thereto, and the Legislature may
solve disputed boundaries between this
State and its co. terminus State whenever
such disputes arises"
This is regarded by the delegates from
the back counties as an intimation that the
white counties may at some future time
make an attempt to secede from the black
counties and leave them to struggle alone
with the race problem.-GreenuiRe Neus.

A Race With Wolves,

Many thrilling tale has been told by
travellers of race with wolves across the

only the picked bones of the hapless
travellers are found to Cell the tale. In

which to fight the foe is DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. This renown-
ed remedy has cured myriads of cases
when all other medicines and doctors.

RESOLUTIONS BY CARARRUS
COUNTY ALLIANCE.

At the last meeting of the County
Alliance the matter of boycotting
newspapers for making war upon us
or III officers vas thoroughly dis
cussed, and the following paper was
adopted:
No argument is needed to show
that the business of our order cannot
be properly conducted without conf
dence IN those who are entrusted with
its management.
And further, the almost unlimited
power of the press to day for good or
evil stands unchalleng9d, md hence
should any united warfare be made
upon u order by such a power with
out any protest from us, and should
u members further p~atronize such
papers, it must eventually work great
harm to our order.
While this is trte and should re-
ceive recognition at the hands Of the
Alliance in some form, we would be
unwilling to take any step hat may
shield an unworthy member or officer
o. our order in wrong doing.
An order that would hide all it's
acts from public ga e or criticism mas
opportunity to become very corrupt.
We would recommend that before
boycottlng any pa er, that the Secre-
tary Of the State or National Alliance
be requested to confer with n papers
containing articles injurious to our
order or its off ers, and request proof
Of any injurious statement.
Proof Of any such is offered) with
any statement the Secretaries NAV
choose to make in connection with it,
snail be laid before the Sub Alliances
tor their consideration and action.
When any charge has been found to
be false and published with the inten
ton OF injuring Our order or it's mem.
bers, then we recommend to our mem.
bers to withhold their patronage from
all papers so maliclousIy and inten.
tlonally trying to injure order OF
its members.

N IN APPLES

Western North Carolina is without
doubt the finest apple region IN the
Atlanti; slope, if not in the whole
country. The whole South ought to
get its apple supply from this section,
and yet even the central and eastern
parts of North Carolina get their sup
plies Of winter apples from the North.
The high rates of railroad transporta
ton are blamed as the cause for this,
and doubtless this is one reason. But
the main eason is that the people
have not learned to handle and ship
apples. The following rules may be
useful:
l. Gather all apples by hand.
Those shaken off are not fit to ship,
2. Put only n variety in a barrel,

Lord, deliver US
Senator Dawes, Of Massachusetts,,
delivered all address in Congress IN
favor Of the appropriation. He said:
Here is a bureau and organlz3i
church ass &c alton, organized solely
for the purpose of pushing Catholic
schools upon tue government and to
secure government money for the
support of these schools, in violation
Of the Constitution Of the Un ;ed
States
Again he said Of The Bureau Of
Catholic Missions these words:
They have been on the ground
here for the last five years, pushing
Catholic schools upon the government
as earnestly as was IN their power, and
Iargely to that influence is attributed
this great increase, which has come TO
be three itths of all the appropriations.
They are active still. The bill passed
the House and | have failed to see
where a single member raised his
voice against it, and only two Sena
tors, to wit: Senator Reagan, o. Texas,
and Senator Geo. e, of Mississippi.

privilege and duty to know, an that
is to which one Of the two great pollti
cal parties is this appropriation due.
