Kansas City TO Chicago. All went well
until pile aud trestle bridge over the
Fox river Mt Revere was reached This
bridge was about i15 feet long aud 80 feet
high. Heavy rains had swollen the tor
rent which ragged beneath the rails, and
the water had carried the bridge out OF
line, yet left it standing. With wheels
turning SLOWLY the train crawled on the
bridge. The engine crossed in safety, but
not the balance of the train. for the bridge
went down, ouly the engine and GEAR
sleeper remaining on either end OF the
abutments.
The other part of the train was precipi

crushed timbers, torn and twisted iron

tssina American registers TO the steam
ships City of Paris and City Of New York.
The secretary says no cruisers could cope
with these vessels armed with rapid firing
guns, owing to their great speed, and no
merchantmen could run away from them.
The Impetus which would necessarily be
given to American shipbuilding by the
requirement Of the bill for the construc-
tion OF two similar ships is almost equal
TO the benefit the navy would receive.
The secretary says; 1T il without doubt
one Of the most beneficial measures for the

The Special Town Meeting scheme.
The special town meeting called for the
purpose OF abolishing the District school
system and adopting the town system will
be held Tuesday forenoon at 10 O'Clock.
There is no doubt that the town system
will be adopted.
The meeting is called for a time when
laboring men cannot get there. Thus the
Republicans hope, by practically disfran-
chising large number, to have a walk
over.
Last June the Democrats had control of
the town, and at the annual election OF
town officers vote was taken on the
question OF changing the school system.
The result was that the Town system was
adopted. That did not suit the Repub-
licans, however, and they raised ques-
tion on technical point. The matter
was carried to the higher court but the
town system prevailed.
Everything then went along smoothly
enough because the Republicans gained
control OF the town. They were laying
low and expected to carry the annual
school meeting in the union district.
Everyone knows the result. They tried
their strength on the first vote, saw they
had no chance and then acted like party
Of overgrown schoolboys.
They did not dare to wait until the
town election to take vote on the ques-
tion, as the Democrats would then be out
in force, but called a special meeting and
hope to carry it.
Invitation Declined.
There is not much love existing between
the local Veteran Firemen and the mem
bers OF the Pawtucket association. 1t was
shown at the meeting OF the veterans OF
this place held last evening.
The invitation to take part in the
muster 10 De nelu IN PROVIDENCE on the
Fourth OF July was declined. Many OF
the members desire to go elsewhere on

justified in entering contest where one
