was a small mound. Whoever

DOUGLASS, Wyo, Sept. 21.-The peo-
pies party state convention met today.
The delegates were IN caucus until after
midnight debating the question of
fusion and most of the forenoon was de-
voted to the same subject. The demo-
Gratis have asserted for weeks that the
populists would simply meet, nominate
presidential electors, indorse the demo
cratic state ticket, and adjourn; and IN
doubtedly some such arrangement had
been made with the new faith, but the
rank and file declined to consummate
the deal. 1t is impossible at this hour
to foretell results. but it is believed the
fusionists will carry the day. The sup
position is supported by the fact that
the convention chose S. y. Morgan. a
strong fusion candidate. as chairman.

made temporary secretary and the con
vention adjourned until this evening

The Society for Revision of Geo
graphical Names have not, to my
knowledge, ever considered the ad-
visibility of changing the name of
Ichtucknee river to that of 1.-The
River of MastOdons," but it is clear
that something should be done in
that direction for the little thread of
Florida water. Although unpreten-
tious within itself, it is known to
learned men the world over as the
place where more mastodonic re-
mains have been found than any
locality of equal area on the globe.
Within a distance of less than two
miles no fewer than six skeletons of
these gigantic extinct animals have
been fished from its bed.
One Of these skeletons, according
to DR.. koot, is the largest SO far
found in this or any other country.
For years exploring expeditions have
made regular trips up and down Ich-
tucknee looking for mastodon bones
and teeth in the sands and graphing
the bed of the stream with sharp iron
hooks with a hope of discovering
hidden antediluvian remains beneath
the water.-St. Louis Republic.

u Disastrous Accident.
CLEVELAND, Sept. 2l.--What will un-
doubtedly prove the most disastrous ac-
cident in the history of the Pittsburg,
Fort Wayne & Chicago railroad took

Browns cut a mile and a half west of
Shreve, Ohio. Train No. 8. a fast east

was about one hour late and was running
at a rate Of sixty miles an hour.
1t is stated that the engineer and
fireman on the freight, while standing on
sidetrack at Shreve, fell asleep and were
awakened by hearing a train rush by.
Thinking it was No. 8 the engineer pulled
out onto the main track, and had just
got under way when the trains met. The
collision occurred on a sharp curve, and
in a cut where neither crew was able to
see the other train approaching.
Passengers and trainmen who escaped
say the accident had hardly taken place
before flames burst forth and they be-
lieve but two or three people we're killed
outright. the others having been pinned
down in the cars and slowly roasted to
death. Twelve burned and blackened
trunks have been taken from the wreck.
