Poets have sung of the bravery of the
Roman soldier who remained at his post
amid the falling ashes that entombed Pom
peii, but modern railway brakeman has
shown q courage as great and devotion to
duty as sublime as that of the celebrated
warrior. ice Ferniss, brakeman on the
Missouri Pacific railway, is now suffering
with frozen feet, hands and ears as the re-
suit Of 4 tagging experience on windy
night with the mercury at 70 degs. below
zero. For over three hours in this bitter
cold he awaited the coming of the fast ex-
press, and when at last the whistle sounded
he waved on high the lantern which had
frozen fast to his hand and sank back with
duty done and death near at hand, but
over a hundred lives were saved.
Only last week, in the outskirts of a
Northern city, Just as a locomotive was
rounding q curve, the engineer beheld a
little child sitting down at play on the track
few yards ahead. There was no time to
call for the brakes. II anything was to be
done it must be done quickly, and leaving
his cab this noble engineer ran around the
engine to the front of the pilot, stretched
forth his arm and lifted the child from the
track and from certain death, but the
STOPPING over and the swaying of the en-
gine threw him under the wheels and his
legs were cut of, the entire train of cars
passing over him before the Mortified fire.
man could stop the train.
1t is this devotion to duty of which the
American workman is proud. Stop the i'm
portation of foreign paupers, keep out
Italian and Chinese wage workers, prohibit
the cheap Hungarian mine laborer, who
are filling the places of our American
skilled and unskilled laborers of to-day,
and the talk of anarchy and socialism
among our American workingmen will
stop. It is these foreign, dissatisfied, dis
gruntled classes, with whom American
labor has been forced to compete, that have
caused nearly if not quite all of the trouble
and disturbances among the wage earners
of this country. The American laborer is
worthy of his heir, and is anxious to prove
it. He is a patriot, and stands ready at all
times to demonstrate it. His ancestors
have made America what this country is to-
day, and the labor required in still further
building up and developing it, is but his
common heritage. In labor as in all things
else, America is for Americans.

CLEBURNE, TEX, Feb. 17.-Mrs. Mary
Newberry, who was tried and convicted at
the last term of the district court of the
murder of her three grandchildren. and
who, few weeks ago, made a full confess
sion of the crime, was tried on charge of
lunacy to-day. A very large numper of
witnesses were introduced by the state to
show the elaboration with which the MUIR
der was planned and the cunning exhibited
in concealing all evidence that would tend
to the discovery of the criminal.
There were also number of physicians
introduced as experts on both sides of the
case, among them DR.. D. r. Wallace,
formerly superintendent of the Terrell in
sane asylum. The evidence of the experts
as well as that of the other witnesses was
very conflicting.
Mrs. Newberry was in the court
room during the early part of the
trial, but was too much FRUSTRATED
to stay. After being carried to
the jail she tainted, and physician had to
be called In. To the doctors who visited
her with view TO testifying as TO her san
ity. she said she wanted to die, that she
was not fit to live, aud begged them to give
her something to kill her.
She is now but shadow of her former
self. Her mind seems perfectly clear, but
it is easy to be seen that she is suffering a
hundred deaths from rsmorse of conscience.

Fosters Letter.

The secretary of the treasury has writ
ten letter to Speaker Crisp in
response to the house resolution
calling on him for information
whether at any time since the ~ per
cent bonds became due there has been suf-
ficient funds in the treasury to pay
the same, and if so, by what
authority he has assumed to continue any
of such bonds at 2 per cent interest, and
why the same were not paid at the time
said bonds were DUE
The secretary says the ~ per cents are
redeemable at the pleasure of the
United States on three months
notice to the holders. He shows
that there were sufficient funds in the
treasury, to pay the outstanding
debts, but says it was deemed pru-
dent and profitable to the government
to continue portion of them aud the au-
thority under which the bonds
were permitted to continue is
contained in the act which authorized
their issue.
The secretary calls attention to the fact
that the Forty-seyenth congress approved
the continuance of and per cent bonds at
per cent.
