THE GREAT PETITION.

John Milton once said, "Reformers
look very small in the OF the world.
but very large in the eye OF God, they
are SO much nearer Him" So we be-
iieve every effort of Gods people for
the amelloration of the sins and suf |
ferings OF His creatures, though small |
In the estimate OF the world, are great
in the mind Of Hum who alone can
render them victorious.
The great petition of the Worlds
w. c. I. U. is the plea of suffering,
sobbing womanhood for the protection
Of her home and the salvation Of her
sons and daughters; one heart crowd
ing upon another in their outreach
toward God, until as one soul, leaving
their all with Him, they catch the
sound OF His voice saying, 30 woman,
great is thy faith; be it unto thee ey-
en- as thou wilt
This petition is in circulation the
wide world over, but we fear some
woman may have failed to add her
name. and will not be counted among
| the pleading host. therefore, the Ma
tiohal W. {. T. U. at its late meeting
at Atlanta promises renewed effort
that none may be omitted. Great
Britain is alive to the worn, and Eu-
rope, Asia and Africa are pressing
lis claims.
While we desire the name Of every
woman, we also want the Endorsement
OF men. Two copies Of the petition
can be circulated simultaneously; one
| can be signed by women as petitioners,
the other by men as indorsers, always
leaving the back of the petition free
for pAsting upon thin cloth, in pre-
paration for its journey round the
! world Miss Willard writes awe
hope this will be a year when thu
work for this petition will be so large
! III increased. that when we meet al
, fremont Temple, Boston, in Novem
Der, 1891, there will be towers an'
bastions OF petitions heaped up as
i, testimony that the great document i
about ready to start on its travels
: We want the heart Of Lady Henri

Running through this whole singular formation was diagonal vertical drift of very rosy granite cropping out on top and running down side of the small CT chasm, where could trace it to the wa ter.

The Opening Strong and Conident-
 Active Stocks Hammered Down by
 Bears-Atchtson the Leader fin Ac-
 tivity.
 NEW YORK, September 2.
 Railroad bonds were heavy to weak in the forenoon, recovering somewhat later in the day. The trading reached $2, ,46s 900, Atchison incomes contributing $37s 400 and Reading irsts $267, ,0Oo The final changes are generally insignificant but many of the active bonds are lower, and Mobile and Ohio fours lost at 65.
 Stocks opened strong and confident, but the de- mand was nottas heavy as during the last two days. The traders and bears soon got to work and, aided by some realizing, hammered Union Pacific down materially in the first few minutes trading The rest of the active stocks were treated the same. The pressure, however, was maintained until near the close, the market showing several feeble rallies, but only in special stocks, like Sugar, was the recovery of particular movement Atchison was the leader in activity, but Union Pacific in weakness, and while ma terial losses were shown at one time in the gran gers, they recovered most of their losses in the late trading when the covering of shorts by the professionals caused a rally, which reached some importance among the weak stocks of the forenoon. The close was active and firm on the rally, but prices were left generally small frac- tions lower than the prices of last evening and Union Pacific is down 21s per cent. and Colorado Coal and Northwestern each per cent.

CRUSHED BY AN ENGINE.

George B. Jones Receives Injuries
 at Fair Street Bridge Which Neces-
 sttates tho Amputation of His Right
 Leg.
 Fireman George B. Jones, employed on a switch engine on the Consolidated rail road, was seriously injured about 1030 o'clock yesterday morning near the Fair street bridge by the engine dashing against the south side of the eastern wall of the bridge.
 At 10:30 switch engine 99, in charge of Engineer Eugene Evarts and Fireman Jones, started up the cut with nine loaded cars. They were on the switch track, but | did not see that the switch leading to the 1 siding, which is about 100 yards long and | ends at the eastern wall of Fair street | bridge, was open.
 The train was under good headway when | it took the siding, and it was impossible to stop it before it collided with the wall Engineer Evarts and Fireman Jones stood by their engine and did everything l possible to avert the accident. But the l engine struck the wall with terrific force.
 The bunting post at the siding was shivered and the wall considerably dam aged. Neither the engine, tender nor any l markable.
 The engine and tender, however, were badly wrecked. The water tank in the tender was broken and the water poured out upon the tracks. The engine itself looked as if it had been struck by cy- clone.
 Jones, who is a married man and resides in Branford, was taken to the hospital where amputation of the member took place. Last night Jones was as comforta ble as could be expected and no other seri- l Ous results are anticipated
