HE CHANDLER ToWNslrE

CHANDLER. .. T.. Sept. 24-No other
town in the world is like Chandler today
for which all other towns may truly be
glad. The government site for the town
of Chandler is still inhabited only By a
few soldiers and the surveyors. but on the
other half of the section east of Chandler
has been mapped out into townsite, the
population OF which changes every minute.
The location of Chandler is on high bluff
Under the bluff runs COwbell creek, a
small stream which a man could iump
across. The land on the bluff which the
surveyors have been trying TO survey into
streets and alleys is rougher than the high
seas in "A storm Great rocks, as large as
small house, are scattered about all over
the townsite and deep gullies cut it in
pieces. With miles of level land all
around. Ii Is difficult to understand why
such rough piece of land was selected for
the town. The rival town on the adjoin-
ing half of the quarter section is on level
ground. On Tuesday men rushed into il
and drove their stakes, as anxious to Sc
cure 50-toot piece Of ground as though il
were worth 81, 600; but when they got it
they were not delighted. After sleeping
out all night Tuesday, tortured with hun
ger and thirst and by a most raveuous
species OF mosquitoes, some realized that
they had had enough and began 10 leave.
One man yesterday offered two lots in the
NAaEuser annex lot q nam SANDWICH, with
ont finding q purchaser. The town Is
overrun with gamblers OF every descrip-

There has been no trouble in keeping the

the people kept coming and at noon there
were probably 1000 people here. The
country in this vicinity is very poor aud Of

a USEFUL MONARCH.

LONDON, Sept. PA Socialist at Dantzic
has been arrested for saying that King
Otto the crazy sovereign Of Bavaria was
the most useful monarch in Europe, be-
cause he spends his time peeling potatoes.
This remark was considered a reflection
upon the kaiser and all the other German
sovereigns, not one of whom is conspicu-
Gus for anything but good living. The po-
lice are more than ever severe in punish
ing any act or word of personal disrespect
for the kaiser, and in Berlin yesterday two
men were warned by the police 10 stop
talking about the kaiser's beard. Visitors
have been forbidden to come within GER
tain distance of royalty while yet picnick-
ing or boating in the vicinity of Potsdam.
These orders have been issued in Difference
to the empress, who claims to have been
annoyed by inquisitive visitors watching
her at lunch, and possibly commenting on
her healthy appetite. In future no one
dare hlook at royalty, except when it
chooses to 90 on exhibition

THE ST IOius FNcAmpMFN7

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 24.-Most of the visiting
Odd Fellows have left for their homes, the
delegates to the Sovereign Grand Lodge
being the ouly representatives in the city.
The business of the Grand Lodge is pro
greSsinS very slowly, owing TO the frequent
Interruptions which have occurred. In
the midst of yesterdays proceedings Grand
Lecturer RiXle of Missouri was taken
suddenly i'll, which necessitated an ad-
jOurnment. Various other matters have
occurred, taking the time OF the lodge TO
the detriment OF legitimate business The
most important questions up for action are
the reduction OF tue age of eligibility from
twenty-one TO eighteen years. the question
of excluding liquor dealers, and the
memorial charging Grand Secretary Ross
with uuseemiy conduct.
At one time today it was thought that a
sensation would be unearthed when a
charge was presented against the commit.
tee on printing aud supplies, alleging IL
legal expenditure of money at last year :
session, but the matter was finally ex
planned TO the satisfaction Of those bring
ing the char .es Contrary to expectations,
the Rose matter. the question of ellSi-
bility and the liquor dealer resolution
were not considered. II Is said that ali
VIII be decided tomorrow. The next place
OF meeting tor the seventy-third encamp-
ment will be Portland, Or.

a TERRIBLE ISION.


NEW CASTLE, Pa, Sept. pa terrible
wreck occurred on the Pittsburg and
Western at Mckim's siding, station a
short distance on the other side of Zellon-
ople, Butler county. At this point work
train with force of fifty men was en-
gagged in putting down new track. About
O'Clock this morning the work train got
out of the way of freight train going
west, but the crew did not know that a
section Of the same number was follow
ing five minutes later. The work train
again pulled out on the main track, and
the men were engaged in throwing off
dirt when the second section struck the
work train with great force. The cars
were piled up in a shapeless mass. The
engines were a mass of broken iron and
wood, and hot steam and boiling water
poured over the unfortunate ones caught
in the jam. For moment after the col
lision there was silence. Then the air was
broken by the shrieks of the dying, max
ing a scene so terrible that one of the
trainmen who had escaped injury tainted
with horror The trainmen and laborers
who were not injured began at once to
assist those imprisoned in the debris. Sew
eral arms and legs were found in several
different places, aud the head of an Italian
was found twenty feet away from the
body. Engineer John HCughton, who had
bravely done his best to stop the engine
attached to the freight train, was found
wedged in among broken and sbapeless
mass of iron BY II o'clock the bodies OF
eight Italian laborers had been taken from
the wreck, and, with the killing of En-
gineer Houghton, this swells the number
of deaths to nine. There were az least
twenty men injured, several of whom can
not recover. All of the bodies were ter
ribly mangled and disfgured. Engineer
Houghton was the only American killed.
His home is said to be in Allegheny. The
exact cause of the disaster cannot be
learned, but, as usual, it is said to be a
mistake of the trainmen, who did not cor
rectly interpret their orders. The names
of the Italians could not be learned, but
they all lived in and around Zelionople.

Sexton Roberts Sight Restored and He
Views tho Glories of Easter

Sexton Roberts Sight Restored and He
Views tho Glories of Easter.
A very pleasing feature of the Easter
service at st. Marks yesterday, was the
presence of the aged John Roberts who
has not before attended church for two
years, and who, until yesterday had not
seen flower for about three years. The
old gentleman was the assistant OF his
son Thomas as sexton of the church.
About three years ago he was seized
with desperate illness which, when he
recovered. left him totally blind. When
ST. Marks hospital was completed,
rooms were set apart for Mr.. Roberts
and his venerable wife, with the design
of giving them nome during life.
Crippled and blind. the old mans life
has been indeed desolate during the
years of his confinement.
. About two monts ago, DR.. Green, of
the hospital staff, made an examina-
ton of the Old mans eyes, and follow
ed this with an operation. The result
was a complete recovery of sight, and
the first use the old man made of his
new eyes was to 60 to church on Easter
day aud feast them on the beauties of
the gorgeous sanctuary. All the church
reJolced with the Roberts family in the
miracle that had been wrought for
them.

OTHER CHURCHES.

In all the Catholic congregations the
day was celebrated in an impressive
manner. At st. Mary's the attendance
was unprecedentedly large. The floral
offerings were exquisite. In all the
Protestant churches the day was OBJ
served with fitting tokens of Joy and
gladness. On the whole il is perhaps
within bounds to say that Easter day
was celebrated never more generally
and unltedly than it was yesterday.
Owing to the fact that the church ed
ifice is about TO be abandoned the Uni
versalist church was not as extensively
decorated yesterday as it usually Is on
Easter Sunday. The altar aud pulpit
were covered with profusion of Easter
lilies. calla lilies and potted plants.
The muHcal exercises were of the high
est order OF merit and Rev. DR.. Fluhrer
preached a magnificent sermon from
Luke, xx 80, "For he is not God of
the dead :. but of the living: for all live
unto him."
The sermon dwelt principally upon
the great lesson of the day, the immor-
tally of the soul. Applying the theory
of evolution he contended that the
progressive Advancement of the forms
of life since the beginning and its con-
tinuousness under different forms was
sn evidence OF immortality.

the left and Easter lilies at the right.
Pink and white azaliss with tender
green vines filled the baptismal font,
and well arranged bouquets of roses
were placed here and there. The quar-
tette choir rendered fine program in
a most effective way. The people of
Grace church are endeavoring to raise
