FELL FROM A TRAIN.
HERMAN FISCHER, OF JERSEY CITY
FOUND IN 4 WATCH
BOX.

TO HIS WEDDING.


TO HIS WEDDING.
Yesterday morning when John Lind
say went to his watch box, near the
Cumberland Valley bridge, hefound in
side a well-dressed man who was badly
bruised about the face, and had his
clothing torn and covered with dust.
He said that he had fallen from train
No. 10 Of the B. q o. Mr.. Lindsay
sent the man to drug store where he
had his wounds dressed, when he came
back and enquired the way 70 the de-
pot. He was given the necessary d.
rections, and started out, but it seems
that he wandered into the hills, where
ho was picked up BY George Creque
and brought to town IN buggy. AT
the time he was found be was
bathing in the Tuscarora in the vi
entity Of Arden. When brought to
the city he developed signs Of insani-
ty and It became necessary to place
him in the jail. AT times he seems
rational, while at others he wanders in
his mind. Tailor Simmons has ascer-
tanned that the mans name is Herman
Tischler, and he says that his home is
No. 1928 Grant street, Jersey City, N.
j. He claims that lie Is an engraving
and designing jeweler, in the employ
Of John Harris, his brother-in-law, at
No. 1856 East Houston ST., N. u, and
also formerly worked for John Frick,
at Nos. 4 and 6 Liberty Place, N. Y.
City. Fischer is evidently Hebrew,
and he says that he was on his way "a
Chicago, to personally invite some d
his friends to his wedding, which wal
to take place next Sunday, December
18th. The girls name, he says, Is Miss
Lilly Davis, and she lived where he
boarded, at No. 1928 Grant street, Jer-
sey City. he also has another brother
in-law named Abraham Isacs, living at
Ais Grant st., Jersey City. Tisehler
is about IS years Of age, and had
$4,000 and ) valuable watch. Il Il
| not known whether his mental abera-
ltion was caused BY the fall from the
| train Or whether le was thus afflicted
before leaving Jersey City. His friends
will be communicated with and he will
probably be retained here until they
can be heard from. There are no in
dications that he had been drinking,
and he declares positively that he fell
from the platform as the train was go-
| ing around curve. If no word is rel
ceived from his relatives he win be
turned over to the Baltimore & Ohio
authorities, to be taken to Bay View,
Baltimore.

Especial to THE woRLD.l
COLUMBIA, S. O., December 6. The
House Of Representatives yesterday
passed by vote of 40 to 81, the Pro
hibition bill. The bill absolutely pro-
hibits the sale Of beer, liquors, wines,
ETC., in any portion Of the State, or
their transportation by railroad, express
companies, ETC., under heavy penalties.
It was passed after bitter fight,
lasting two pays.
The law is said to be framed on that
now in force in Iowa. It's generally
believed that if this bill becomes a law
it will divide the Democratic party In
the State and result in the complete
enfranchisement Of the negro voters,
who will be called in to take part in
the State and National campaign next
year.

CLARKsBURG, w. VA, December g.
United States Marshal Stalnaker re-
Gently located Joseph Richardson, a
moonshiner and desperate notorious
for his defiance Of all law, in the noun
tains Of Braxton, about ten miles from
Sutton. Stalnaker tried to organize a
posse to capture him, but either be-
cause Of fear or sympathy with Rich
ardson no one would serve.
The Marshal then hunted down the
desperate alone and arrested him,
Richardson making no resistance.
Suddenly Richardson's wife, power
full, raw-boned woman, attacked Stall
maker with an axe, and while he was
defending himself Richardson escaped.
Mrs. Richardson is as notorious a
criminal as her husband, and it is a
miracle that Stalnaker escaped with
his life. The Marshal says that he
will organize posse and scour the
mountains for Richardson, whom he
swears he viii take dead or alive.

several men standing ready to enter,
armed with pistols.
As he quickly closed the door a fusi-

q hasty retreat into his bedroom.
Here he got his gun, bat as it was not
safe to step out into the hall, he tried
to get the range Of his assailants from

full, and they all escaped nnhurt under

good many in the yard. The motive
Of the attack is not known, though il

WASHINGTON, ID. c., December -
acknowledgements a surprise to
most Of the men who were in it. No
one seriously expected deadlock, and
most Of the members of the caucus
thought they would be able to adjourn
by 5 o'clock. But the stampede pre-
dicted byCrisp on the first ballot did
not arrive any more than the 100 votes
he was to have on that ballot; neither
did the break to Mills, which his
friends had expected, come.
In dozen ballots Crisp could only
muster at the most IS votes and Mills
191. Springer and Hatch lost votes
continually, but both held enough to
prevent the election Of either Mills or
Crisp by stampede, and it soon became
apparent that without stampede
which would carry McMillin's faithful
eighteen supporters off their feet no
choice could be made between the
leaders.
i was evident after three ballots
that McMillin, rather than Springer or
Hatch, held the key Of the situation.
Even if Springer Or Hatch had with
drawn and Mills and Crisp had gotten
all Their votes, neither would have had
the ia necessary to nominate without
some additional votes from McMilliu.
The effect Of this was to stiffen not
only the Mills men and the Crisp men,
but to greatly encourage the McMillin
men. They suddenly became possess
ed, as it seems, Of all the enthusiasm
and confidence Of the caucus.
When the caucus met in the House
in the afternoon Judge Holman an
nounced that 227 members were present
there being two absentees through
illness and LA would be necessary to
q choice. There were seventeen ballots
taken. The first one being as follows:
Crisp So, Mills "A, Springer SO, Nc
Millin 10, Hatch IA. Crisp maintain
cd the lead until the end when the vote
stood, Crisp "a, Mills 81, Springer 10,
McMillin II; Hatch2. The caucus then
adjourned to meetat 10 o'clock to-day.
Hardly anything except the speaker
ship was talked Of by politicians yes
terday. The supporters Of the candi-
dates have been hard at work all day,
and it is likely that they will give
thsmselves but little rest tonight.
There is not much change in the rela-
tive strength Of the candidates. Doz-i
ems Of combinations have been att
tempted, but they have generally
fallen to the ground, because Of the
general conviction of the minor candi-
dates that they hold the balance Of
power, and that all trades and com
promises should be rejected. Enor-
nous pressure has been brought to
bear upon the followers Of Springer,
McMillin and Hatch BY the two lead
ing candidates in the effort to win ac-
cessions from their ranks, but they
have signally failed, if the statements
of the minor candidates themselves are
to be relied upon.
Unless there should be a radical
change in the speakership situation
early this morning, the Houseforthefrst
time since the Thirty-sixth Congress,
when the last deadlock over the
speakership occurred, win meet with
out previous selection Of a presiding
officer.

1t is not worth while being religious,
unless YOU are altogether religious. 1t
won't do to be merely playing at re-
ligion, or having religion on us as bit
of veneer. 1t must satulate us. Some
seek first the kingdom of God Others
put it in second place. Then prayer
meetings are dull, and fellowship meet
ings are uninteresting. But the mo-
ment a man begins to seek first the
kingdom of God and his righteousness,
all things are right. Any man who has
not heartily thrown himself into the
kingdom of God, but who is seeking
secondly the kingdom of God, may be
religious; but there is something he
loves more, and both worlds are spoiled
to him. He has neither the cream of
the one nor of the other. The great
desideratum of the present day is not
more Christians, but better brand of
them. -DrlnlmOnd.
