AWFUL DISASTER.
Express and Mail Train on the Leko
Shore Road Collide,
Fatally Crushing and Mutilating Nine
Persons, Two Engineers, Fire.
man and Six Postal Clerks
Being the Victims.

A frightful wreck occurred on tho
Lake Shore railroad, at Kipton Station,
about forty miles west of Cleveland,
early Saturday evening, in which six
postal clerks and two engineers we're
killed. The fast mail, No. IA, bound
east, collided with No. 81, the Toledo
express, just as the latter train was
about to pull on the .,iding to let the
fast mail pass. The fast mail was rum
ming at full speed, and the force of the
collision was SO great that both engines,
three mail cars and one baggage car
were completely wrecked. Following is
the list of dead: Edward Brown, engi-
neer of No. 81, Toledo, O.; Charles A.
Tapliff, engineer of No. IA, Toledo, O.;
T. j. Nugent, postal clerk, Toledo, o.;
Charles Hammil, postal clerk, Elyria,
O.; F. F. Clemens, postal clerk,
Cleveland, O.; John j. Bow
erfne, postal clerk, Elyria, o.;
James Mckinley, postal clerk, Conneaut,
Ohio. G. H. Mcdowell, postal clerk,
Elyria, o. - Shaley, fireman of No.
IA. Injured: - Danzig, son of SEQ
ton foreman, struck by wreckage and
badly hurt. None of the passenger
cars left the track, and none of the pas
sengers received serious injuries. 1t
was the custom for these two trains to
pass at Kipton, the Toledo express tak-
ing the side track for the fast mail,
which usually went through Kipton
without slackening its speed The
Toledo express was few min.
utes late Saturday evening, and
had just come to stop at the
switch when the fast mail came in
sight There is scarcely any curve at
the station, but on one side of the track
was line of freight cars, and on the
other the station. These might have
obstructed the vision of the engineer OF
the fast mail. He applied the air-breaks
when he saw that a collision was inevi-
table, but the speed of the train was
not checked materially: The engine Of
the Toledo express was knocked square
ly across the track, and that of the fas.
mail reared In the air, resting on the
top of the other.

CLARK MILLS BIG GIRL

The Model Of the Original Statue ofHSs0{
dom at the ,smithsonian.
Ono Of the points of interest in Wssh&
,ington not generally appreciated is tha
statue of Freedom on the capitol domAS
Ifacetiously and familiarly known rs th4
big girl. Notwithstanding it's colossal
lsize 1t is beautifully proportioned hg4
ure, entitled to artistic admiration, bu4
it has stood at an altitude that prevents
ed a clear idea of its clever conception4
For years, says the Chicago Post, thA
model of Freedom, which Clark Mil1a
made after the designs of Thomas Craw-
ford, and which, in addition to the Jacln.s
son statue, made him famous as sculpf
tor, lay in bits in an obscure portion of
the national museum, and it is only
within the last six months that an effort
has been made to restore the deserving
original to a recognizable form and tol
give it place of honor where one may
study instead of merely wonder over the
magnificent proportions.
Now the miniature fishpond which,
occupied the center of the museumf
building, and near which firtattonts
couples have often basked in conven-
lent seats and watched gilded and sil9
vered gambolers, has been converted
into the receptacle for the pedestal, stz
feet high, upon which is being graduate
" pieced and mounted the old model
It is already the object Of curious specE
ulation from countless visitors, who
imagine it anything from the statue a
Minnehaha to the latter-day Columbia
Very few take the pains to Discovers
q, 4 4 - Ao-<>k
original "big girl" is being done by that
son Of Clark Mills, who assisted in mah-
ing the design. The figure is twentyt
feet in height and needs only the fore-
arms and hands to complete it ThA
bunch Of feathers on the head, which Il
softened, 'haloed," by birds on tha
dome itself, is reminiscence Of Jeher4
son Davis, which Is calculated to whn
tor him q. hitherto unexpected esteeu
among patriotic partisans, who have
been only-too willing to accept only tAa
odium In which his memory has baazd
clouded.
When the model was made Jeffersont
Davis was secretary Of war, and it was
10 him the sculptor submitted the fgureA
with liberty cap upon the head. To
this detail Jeff Davis objected, saying
that 1t suggested that Americans had 81
one time been slaves. The bunch OF
feathers, as typical of America, was
| substituted.
1t seems most fitting that so eminent
q work of art is at last placed in q con-t
| spicuous- position where its beauty I'M
all its details may be studied and app
preciated, and where the sublimity OF
both the idea and it's conception can
bring g. asglow to the heart of every spec~
| fatOr.

In the Cross our Only Hope.
From the Methodist Herald.

From the Ne. hodst Herald.
The cross of Christ is subject not
congenial to the thought of many good
people. But the more we give it our
study the more we find in it a signifi
canoe that stirs our souls. 1t is at the
cross Of Christ that the.forces of evil
find their central point of attack Lit
orally, the thunder cloud of God S
wrath breaks then but not upon the
victim head whose heart is breaking
under the burden of woe, for the
wickedness of the world, but upon the
forces of darkness who find i'll their
effort to destroy goodness, their own
destruction. The cross is the radial
center of devine goodness. There is
seen the victory of goodness over evil,
of mercy over hate, of God over Satan.
There is seen the invincible power of
faith in God and unfaltering devotion
to the truth. There IS seen the petty
power of evil in its ability to kill the
body and its poWerleSSneSS over the
spirit. Thus Christ made the cross the
theme Of dominion over us and the
growing Of true faith. LAS | have
overcome, so shall We overcome" is the
gospel Of Calvary to all who believe i'll
him. In the light of the cross is seen
the salvation of the soul-and the
end of that faith which overcometh
the world. In its light is the Christ
ian's hope for the race.

Wheat has heretofore commanded >
