COLONEL GREENLAND Is BOOKED

To Fill the Shoes of the Late Adjutant
General McClelland.
HARRISBURG, Feb. 29.-[Special ]-Colonel
Walter W. Greenland, Of Clarion, Quarter
master General of the National Guard, is
booked for the succession to the late Adju-
tant General McClelland. The appointment
will probably be made this week.
Colonel Walter W. Greenland was Dor n in
Huntingdon county in 1s45. In 1862, at the
age Of II, he entered the army. He was q
member OF the One Hundred and Twenty
fifth Regiment. He was with his regiment
on the Tth of September, '62, at the battle of
Antietam, where he distinguished himself
by saving the colors of his regiment from
falling into the hands of the enemy. After
one color bearer had been killed and another
wounded, Colonel Greenland seized the flag
and bore it throughout the fight. Colonel
Higgins, who commanded the regiment,
thanked Greenland on the field for his gal
lantry. Greenland declined the offer of color
sergeant, which Colonel Higgins offered
him.
Colonel Greenland, besides being gallant
soldier, has been conspicuous in the
National Guard for years. He IS now Quar-
termaster General on the Governors staff
Before being appointed to the Governors
staff he was Quartermaster of the Second
Brigade. He was elected Prothonotary of
Clarion county, and has always been an
active Democrat. He is q handsome, soldierly-
looking man, and is popular wherever
known.
The only complaint made against the ap-
pofntment is the claim that Colonel Rut-
ledge was the senior in rank. His friends
fused to recognize rank in making the ap-

THE CZAR's UNEASY HEAD
In Deadly Peril From Conspirators as He
Attends q Funeral

Attends Funeral.
ST. PETERSBURG, Feb 29.-The police
profess to know absolutely nothing about
the matter, but from other sources it is
learned that conspirators planned to murder
the Gar while he was on his way to the
Fortress of st. Peter and st. Paul, situated
OIL an island in the river Neva, upon the oc-
casion of the funeral, on January 20 last, of
the Grand Duke Constantine, uncle of the
Gar. The body Of the Grand Duke was re-
moved on the day referred to from this city
to the fortress mentioned, and was from
there deposited in the Cathedral of st.
Peter and st. Paul, on the same island,
which contains the tombs Of all the Cars of
Russia since Peter the Great. On the
island are also situated the Mint, Academy
of Arts, museum, a number of barracks
and an astronomical observatory.
Upon the occasion of the funeral the
Gar, Prince Oscar of Sweden. and all the
Russian grand dukes followed the bier on
foot, the Czarina and the grand duchesses
following in carriages. The conspirators
planned to kill the Gar while he was on his
way to the Cathedral, but were arrested be-
fore they could carry out the plot. A num-
Der of military and several naval officers,
two of whom have since committed suicide,
are said to have been concerned in the con-
spiracy. Twenty students, several minor
officers of the government and other people
are under arrest, charged with being con-
cerned, directly or indirectly, with the
latest attempt to kill the Gar.

twenty years ago and left all his property to

The Colonel SHOWS Preacher what One
Feature of 1t Is.
NEW YORK, Feb 29.-[SpeciaL ion
January 81 Rev. DR.. A. c. Dixon, pastor of
the Hanson Place Baptist Church in Brook
lyn, preached on "Ingersollism as It Is. I"
A morning paper published the sermon and
quoted the Doctor as saying that in an
Investigation made by Anthony Comstock,
a few years ago, in relation to pictures and
literature passing through the mails, it was
discovered that Colonel Ingersoll repre-
serted the publishers of the pictures and
publications. The Colonel was also accused
of being paid to pollute the minds of
the young of this generation. Col.
Ingersoll demanded retraction.
DR.. Dixon's answer was r public
letter, in which he said that he did not use
the remarks as published. He should have
used them, however, or something like
them, he said, as he believed the charges to
be true. The charges are to the effect that
Colonel Ingersoll not merely represented
the publishers as lawyer, but was in ac-
cord with them.
At yesterday mornings service DR.. Dixon
announced that he had been served with q
summons in a suit begun by Colonel
Ingerson for $1,000 damages for
slander. The Colonel refused to talk
about the suit to-day, further
than this: CDR. Dixon made an infamous
charge against me-. and I asked him to re-
tract. He refused, and brought suit. That
is all there is about it. The gentleman will
have an opportunity to substantiate his
charges in court."

CAUSED BY CARELEsSNEss,
Flagman Mackey Censured for Causing the
Fatal Wreck at West Elizabeth,

F1agman Mackey Censured for Causing the
Fatal Wreck at West Elizabeth.
An inquest was held last night by Deputy
David Semple on the body of Mary Ann
Mcclure, the young girl who died at West
Elizabeth yesterday from injuries received
in peculiar railroad wreck at that place
last Thursday. Miss Mcclure was servant
in the employ of J. F. Blair, druggist,
and about o'clock in the evening was
standing at the door step talking to young
man named Donnelly. The door was some
40 feet from the railroad and suddenly
train Of coal cars came dashing
along. Instead of continuing on the
main track the train swung in at full
speed onto a side switch on which were sew
eral passenger cars. These latter were
jammed and knocked about in fearful
manner and pushed like flash clear over
as far as Mr.. Blair's door, and before DON
nelly and Miss Mcclure could escape the
wreck was on them. Miss Mcclure was
cut and bruised very badly, having several
ribs broken, her lungs punctured and her
yesterday, when she died. Donnelly was
also severely cut and bruised, but not
fatally.
The inquest last night developed the fact
that carelessness had been practiced.
Shortly before the coal train came along, the
switch on the main track had been turned to
run in the passenger cars. A trsinman had
turned the switch, not seeing the fagman
near at hand. After the cars were placed
on the switch the fagman, g. Il. Mackey,
put in an appearance, and told the trainman
that he, Mackey, could care for the switch,
and the trainman thinking Mackey would
%y,rn ob boo 10 ;<o
ran after his engine and rode away.
Mackey, however, thought the trainman
had turned it back and did not examine it,
so that when the coal train came by it ran
onto the siding, made tho wreck possible
and killed the girl The jury concluded
the death to be accidental, but censured the
fsgman, Mackey, for carelessness.

THE WELSH CELEBRATE

The Eve Of se. David's Day-Music, Ora

plains tho Objects Of 81. Dxvid's So
ciety-A Pleasant Evening.
The Welsh and Welsh-Americans last
night celebrated the eve of St David's
Day at the Fourth Avenue Baptist
Church. Tho meeting was under the au-
spices Of st. David's Society, and A j.
Edwards, Chairman of the society. pre-
sided; The speeches Of the evening were
interlarded with vocal and instrumental &C.
lections.
Chief Miles Humphries, of the fire de-
partment, made short address. Referring
to St. David's Society, he said its object is
to elevate Welsh character. Its principles
are benevolence and charity. Its charity
extends beyond the reach of the church, and
every class is penetrated. When good
fellow is down they help him up and give
him ray of sunlight where all was gloom.
Sobriety and frugality are also taught their
people. This meeting on the eve of st.
David's Day, he said, was to revive remi-
niscences Of the past. Speaking of the
prominent men of Welsh extraction, he gave
great credit to the natives of Wales in the
improvement and betterment of America.

saying he was one-quarter Welsh, getting it
from his maternal grandmother. He hardly
knew where his Welsh was, but when he
wanted to kick some one he thought it was
In his feet; when enthusiastic, he thought it
was in his tongue, and when he got tram
script from the tax Office he thought 1t
ought to be in his fists.
Rev. DR.. Edwards took advantage of the
opportunity to boom the movement recently
commenced for university extension. He
explained the project for furnishing an edu-
cation to those unable to attend q uni
versity, and pressed it to the notice of the
Welsh people.
Chairman Edwards closed in eulogy of
the Welsh nation, and reviewed a long list
of illustrious Welshmen who have done
much for the advancement of their
fellowmen. He said the Welsh people
have always been advocates of both religious
and civil liberty. They have had great
warriors and statesmen among them and as
q sample of their deeds he referred to the
writing Of the Declaration of Independence
by Thomas Jefferson, a Welsh-Americsn.
