The girl was dead when her body was

Brazil and the Worlds Fair.

The special commissioner to Brazil
in the interest OF the Columbian exposi-
tion. Captain Alexander Rogers, has sue
seeded in interesting the officials Of the
Federal district which has practically the
same organization as the states in the sue
cess Of that enterprise. The president Of
the municipality Of Rio de Janeiro assured
Captain Rogers that all possible efforts
would be made to send good display Of
its many and varied products. He ex-
poets to send large number OF flags,
arms, ETC., belonging To the municipality,
and many old books, manuscripts, maps
and historical objects of which there is =
large and fine collection. The exhibit
from the Federal district, under his ener-
getic and wise supervision, will undoubt-
edly be both valuable and attractive.
A commission has been appointed com
posed of men in the front ranks Of their
respective callings In the district TO take
charge Of its representations among whom
are the directors OF the national library,
national museum, botanical gardens and
also distinguished officers from both tho

A Find of Coal in Mexico.

The reports of the discovery OF ex-
tensive anthracite coal fields in Sonora
are confirmed by advices received by the
Bureau Of American Republics. Opera
tions at the coal fields arc being carried
on about forty miles from Ori,is, town
on the Sonora railway between Hermosillo
and Guaymas. Tho concern is owned by
Mexican company covering 1900, 600
acres. Coal has been found in borings
hfty miles apart, Tho diamond drill has
gone through three veins, one OF two feet,
another OF four feet and In a fourth II has
already penetrated twenty two feet and is
still working Ia coal. The coal, which by
test is said TO equal the finest Lehigh h
Valley product, can be traced for miles on
the surface, the four veins showing the

Story of the Last Hours of the Poet
and Scholar.

BOSTON, Mass, Aug. l2.-Where
James Russell Lowell died this morning
there were no members OF the family but
the daughter and son In law Of the poet.
HIS body lies in his own sleeping apart
ment where the last hours Of his life were
spent. The nurse who watched over him
during his Illness is still at the house. She
was present ut his bedside from the time
when he became unconscious Monday
evening until he died, early this morning,
except for an absence OF few minutes.
His death was extremely peaceful. Al
though 1t was known that he could not
live much longer, his death was, ,neverthe-
less, rather unexpected. Late Monday
afternoon, after few hours Of brig htness,
he began to wander again, and whatever
he said after that time was aimless. In q
never again rcgaincd his mind. The tran
sition from sleep TO death was so easy that
for few minutes no one In the room real
tssd thu. hi. asart had ceased TO beat
There were present Ut his bedside when
he brcathed his last his daughter Mabel
and hcr husband, MIR. Burnett with his
first wife's sister, Mrs. Howe, and the
nurse. His eyes wcro closed and they
never opened. He passed away with only
heavy sigh to indicate the separation OF
the great soul from the worn out body
Tho funeral will be held Friday afternoon
In Appleton chapel, Cambridge. 1t is
probable that tho bishop elect, Phillips

A Wreck at Brighton.

The regular freight train, No. ~,
from Cheyenne to Denver, was run into
near Brighton on tho morning OF the 10th
and two men were killed.
A short way out Of La Sale Engineer
Hotchkiss discovered that his boiler was
leaking and that II was almost impossible
to keep up steam. AT Plattsville he was
forced to stop the train for an hour to
make repairs. After tho delay he pulled
out and made fairly good speed until with
In two and one half miles OF Brighton sta
tion he was again forced to stop his engine
and look after the leaks in the boiler.
The train had been standing on the track
for thirty minutes when suddenly and
without warning the trainmen felt ter
rifio crash. A train which had been fol-
lowing had run into the rear end. On
looking about they found that stock ex-
ira had come upon them, smashed the ca
boose OF No. IL into splinters aud received
some damage TO its own engine.
In the cabooso there were three railroad
men who were riding with tho crew to
Denver to get work. They were brake
man named James Madden, of whom moth
ing is known, a conductor, Charles McKil
lop by name, and David Flaherty, q
switchman from Cheyenne. Madden and
McKillop had been lying on the benches
in the tail end of the caboose and were In,
stantly killed by tho crushing of the ca
boose, and badly scalded by the steam
from the smashed engine Of the colliding
train. Flaherty was sleeping in tho from
end Of the car. He was caught by the
timbers and badly injured, but escaped
the steam apd is yet alive. >s.~
The collisisn was due to the negligence
Of the trainmen on the regular train in
failing to properly and erectually obey
the company's orders requiring fagman
to be sent back one half mile 10 warn ap.
preaching trains that there was an OBJ
structing train ahead. The train when it
left La Sale was supposed to have clear
track ahead, and US the extra had not yet
left Cheyenne, the trainmen supposed
they had the road to themselves, and from
all reports grew careless under this be-
lief. Conductor virdcn OF the regular
declares that he sent Brakeman Smith
To flag the extra, but the latter has disap-
peared.
