causing the awful disaster. The car was
packed full of people, and the freight
plowed into mass of broken cars and
dead and crippled human beings Re-
ports of the wreck spread over the city
like wildfire, and the station soon filled
with anxious families awaiting friends on

Locality of the Disaster.

Woodsdale park is a resort an the Great
Miami river, about four miles north of
Hamilton, and about thirty miles from
Dayton. The excursionists filled all the
ears on long train, and spent the day at
Woodsdale. They were mostly young peo-
pie, composed of about equal numbers of
men and women, with few children. 1t
was after O'clock when the long train
with its load of happy occupants, started
to return to Dayton. 1t was little after
10 when the train stopped at Middletown
to let off an excursion which stopped there
This was twenty miles south of Dayton.

refused to register or give names of any of

American impertinence on the part of the

told how many rooms they wanted, to which
he added private dining room.

speak that in way here, and think one may

Malaria. Chi,ls and Fever and Am.

That most insidious enemy to health and
happiness, creeps so stealthily on person
that one is hardly able to tell whence it
came and whittier it goeth. Dizziness and
heaviness of the senses, hot head, cold,
clammy hands and feet, slight chilly sensa,
tions, with short flashes of heat, restless
ness, sleeplessness, changeable appetite,
furred tongue and bad taste in the mouth,
are generally among the most prominent
symptoms. But language fails to describe
the multitude of exasperating feelings
which assail the victims of malaria; that
complete Generalization of contentment,
destruction of enjoyment and annihilation
of good cheer, and yet not sick enough to
keep one in bed The malarial poison is
waited in every crevice, door or window,
rises from every bog, pool or sewer, is
breathed with every inspiration, is swal-
lowed with food and drink, making it i'm
possible for any one to be safe from its con-
taminations The only safety possible in
malarious seasons is a sure-acting antidote
for the poison. Pe-ru-na, taken as directed
on the bottle, insures perfect immunity
from the poison of malaria, quickly cures
when the poison has already saturated the
entire system, and slowly brings back to
health and happiness old cases OF chills and
fever that all other remedies have failed to
cure.

better. When the people of your country

wnatcom Cwash.) Reveille.l
About four weeks since a well-knoBn
muggler was seen to leave Victoria with q
party of Cinnamon, which he had agreed TO
land at San Juan Island for the sum of $50
each. The money had been collected in ad-
vance, it was afterward aseertained. The
Black Pup, a Government steam launch,
steamed after the smuggler's sloop, and the
race became stern chase. The wind was
blowing q tremendous gale, and the launch
had little advantage over the sloop. Tho
spray often hid the sloop from view, and
the little launch was tossed like a cookie
shell, but kept pegging away with grim de-
termination.
The breeze finally slackened, and the
smuggler saw that the jig was up and
shortened sail The launch then over
hauled him. The skipper was smoking
calmly, and not Chinaman was to be
found. The officers have no doubt that the
wretch deliberately drowned his passen-
gers, rather than get into trouble with tho
revenue officers. In the bowling storm the
frightened Cinnamon might easily have
been disposed of without any danger Of de-
lection The finding of yellow human
thumb in the belly of dogfsh, near the
scene of the chase, few weeks since, is evil
dence that there are Cinnamon at the bot
tom of the sea.

The two sons Of Genes Crane, who make
the paper at Dalton, Masa, from which
Government notes are printed, were at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel yesterday. Their father
was the Inventor of the paper and explained
its value to Secretary Salmon P. Chase,
who adopted it for the greenback issues It
has never been successfully counterfeited,
and the sons have got the secret of its manu-
facture from their father. j. Murray
Crane, who attends to the Government con-
tracts, is often in New York, and is a slen-
der, nervously active man of perhaps 35
years of age.
There is story told in New England that
when the paper pulp, made of pure linen
stock, is all ready for the final touches at
the mills, j. Murray Crane appears on the
scene with black gripsack. The grip and
the man are ushered into the pulp room and
remain for half an hour, during which
period no employe is allowed around the
place. When the grip goes in it is fat and
plethoric. When it comes out it is lean and
slab-sided. When the pulp goes through
the paper machine the perfection of bank
note paper is produced. 1t pretty story,
but j. Murray Crane told me yesterday that
there was Just as much truth in it as there
was in the report that his company gets 30
times as much for the note paper as for
ordinary linen paper without the silk
threads, which are its distinctive feature

LEECHEs WILL FIGHT.
Thrilling Contest Between Bloodsuckers
In a Seattle Drugstore.

1nr1IunS COuIest between DioooSuckorB
In a Seattle Drugstore.
Seattle Telegraph
The allegation that leeches will not fight
was demonstrated to be fallacy Friday
night, and in Front street drugstore a
couple of the bloodsuckers were doctored
and trained so that they fought very game
battle. The combatants had been on diet
of Lake Washington water for some time
past, and while there may be plenty of
animalcula il it, the hirudos wanted blood.
They were first noticed in a sort of a
catch-as-catch-can wrestling match, and
squirming and wriggling about in the bottle
trying to fasten their suckers on each other.
1t was manifest that they lacked stimulus,
and it was finally suggested to give them q
bath in cold beer. This was done and the
effect within few minutes was both mag
ical and remarkable. The leeches became
as savage as meat axes. They became
an onlooker OF battle between a,
scorpion and tarantula The leeches
stood up on their tails and
clinched, each getting hold. The pair
were put into q wash bowl filled with water,
and then for upwards of 10 minutes they
continued to battle with each other. They
fastened their suckers on each others Shiny
wriggling body, taking hold something
after the manner of an octopus, and it was
fidally found necessary to sprinkle salt on
them before they could be separated. The
spectators who witnessed the battle say it
was far more exciting than the recent match
between Jim Corbett and Peter Jackson.

CHAPTER XVIII
OF BOARD THE BRISBANE

As 1t was now Molly's intention to
organize an expedition at once in order to
penetrate the wilderness of Central Aus
tralia and continue on land the search
which had been so fruitless OF water, she
resolved under Zach's advice to take
passage the next day on the Brisbane for
Adelaide. A thorough study of the map
Of Australia had convinced French that the
latter city offered better facilities not only
for fitting out the expedition, but also for
more quickly reaching the center of the
continent where ii was supposed that
CAPTAIN John was held q prisoner by some
Of the savage tribes which roam over these
almost limItless plains.
Luckily the Brisbane was TO sail the next
oay et II A. n, and after touching at Mel
bourne would reach Adelaide 4 ugust q.
As Molly was sitting on the upper deck
IN conversation with Zach, a cabin boy ap-
preached them to ask by order of the captain
Whether she we're in need of anything.
Nothing, my child" said Molly, to
whom the boys voice seemed strangely
familiar to her. Suddenly ii occurred to
her where she had heard it. For an instant
the ewes of the two were fixed in silence,
but inJently, searchiugly upon each other.

Of the troubled look that he now saw on

would have been just Godfrey's age, and
the sight of this tall, handsome boy filed

As there was to be delay of So hours in

WALKING ON THE VESTS wIsHBoNE.
Mr.. Aide did not like the "surprise
party" of the rancho out West He will
like 1t less the next time he is invited.
Western people are informal, but their
hearts are warm. They are hospitable to a
degree that would naturally surprise and
unman a real man for the moment It
would not affect Mr. Aide especially, how
eyer. But the West hates to have an
honored guest walk on its wishbone with
Mexican spurs. 1t feels hurt and resents it.
1 have lived nearly all my life in the West,
and I say without fear of successful con-
tradiction that any mani do not refer now
to Mr.. Aide-who has been the guest of the
West, and who then seeks to earn S8 45
by running down his host, is not only cad
and triumphant ass, but he is unworthy
in every possible way on earth, and totally
disappointing except in the way of stimula-
tion to tardy tomato crop.
After being guest in the American "par-
lor" he turns and seeks to bemire and be-
smirch, by satire and such things, the furni-
ture and decorations of his illguided hostess,
whose error was in not showing him to the
sty and letting him look over the album.

had never seen that kind of fauna before,

was critic when it was really collie that
allied him.
He did not like it because our ladies did
not allow him to see them work. This was
in Difference to him, for no one ever saw
him work. He says he presumes that ladies
here do secretly work, but he missed ''the

time in the future he will probably notice
