Nine Persons Killed.

Joliet. ILL.,, April 9.-The first seri-
GUS accident to occur on the drainage
channel happened Friday at Romeo,
10 miles north of the city. A heavy
wind arose about :45 p. M, follow
ed BY heavy fall of hail. This caus-
ed all the men to run for shelter. The
gang on the cantilever ran into the
engine house at one end of the huge
machine. The tracks on which it
runs extends north and south. The
lever was on the south end of the
track and had been carelessly left un-
fastened. The wind, increased to a
gale, struck the cantilever and start
ed it down the track toward the en-
CINE house, in which IA men were
huddled.
The top part had gained such mo-
mentum that it could not be stopped,
and the enormous machine, weighing
280 tons, fell on the engine house.
Nine men were killed and five severe
wounded. The men were all Italians
except the foreman, Samuel Korus,
who lives in this city. The cantilever
was $50 feet long and 80 feet in the
air. The force of the fall damaged
the machine so it is useless
Extensive prairie fires have been
prevailing in Nebraska and last Friday
they were famed by gale and an i'm
mense amount of damage was done. A
press dispatch says it is too soon to get
any idea OF how much the exact dam
age is, for the places most effected are
remote from telegraph lines. 1t is
known, though, that much grain and
hay in store, together with many barns
and other outbuildings, miles Of fences,
dozens Of dwellings and many bridges
have been licked up. South Dakota
was also sufferer, and forest fires have
done great damage in Ohio and Ken.

Engineers Win.

Macon, Ca, April ,9,-United
States Judge Speer rendered de-
cision yesterday granting the petition
OF the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers to require the receiver of
the Central Railroad of Georgia to
enter into a contract with that organ
ization for the service of its members
on that road. The decision has at
tracted much attention, and members
of the bar pronounce it the most far
reaching and satisfactory declaration
upon the relations of capital and la.
Dor yet rendered.
In the course of his decision Judge
Speer referred to rule ~ of the broth
erhood, which prohibits members of
the brotherhood employed on connect
ing lines from handling the property
of a railroad on which there is strike
of the engineers, and said the rule
was in direct violation of the laws of
the land. In any conceivable strike
on the transportation lines of this
country there would be interference
with interstate or foreign commerce.
1t would be practically impossible
hereafter for body of men to COM
bine to hinder and delay the work of
the transportation company without
becoming obnoxious to the provisions
of the law, and combination or a
greement of railroad officials or other
representatives of capital with the
same effect would be equally under
the ban of these penal statutes. Or
gamzed labor, when injustice has
done or threatened to its membership,
should appeal to the courts for red
ress against unlawful trusts and COM
binations which would do wrong to it.
The judge says further that while an
engineer may at any time exercise his
right to leave the service of the re-
ceivers he may not do SO in such a |
manner as to injure the property or
impede its proper management.

Written for the SITTER.
APRIL.
BY CELIA NJ. REYNOLDS.
See April, smiling April,
With shining face alift
To catch the sunny kisses
That down from heaven sift
We also haste to give her
The greeting warm of fliends,
Since with her cheerful coming
Our wintry waiting ends.
We open now the windows
Long closed gainst wind and snow,
And clean neglected corners,
And let the fires burn low.
Our guest, fair April, wanders
With comfort in her mien
Through rooms where shut in shadows
Four shivering months have been.
No touch of gloom there fingers
When April comes to bless,
With lips apart with laughter,
And light in golden tress.

"The Grim Warrior of Rrattleboro."

There is an organization in Boston
known as the Vermont Veterans Associ-
alton composed of original Vermont
veterans. A short time ago this
association held its fifth annual banquet
at the Parker House. Of course it
could not be expected that an affair of
this kind could come off without the
Governor of Vermont being present,
more especially since the people have
chosen such a magnificent fighter and
world renowned hero to this position.
He was there.
No doubt an invited guest.
But this would matter not to him,
for such is his keen recollections of ex-
periences (?) from Bull Run to Apo
matox that the bare mention of "a veter-
an banquet awakes in his war-like soul
the long roll of rebellion echoes that greet
ed him in the trying days of 1S61-5,
and from which he glorionsly arose
from the deadly fields (of North Hins-
dale) to the governors chair, that he
goes as soon as it comes to his ear.
And he doesn't stand upon the order
Of his going.
He goes
He makes speech !!
And whata speech
But it is not the purpose Of the SIF-
TER to call especial attention, only in
one particular, which will appear here
after, to his speech upon this occasion
but to the utterance of another, one H.
w. Downes. The printed report says
Mr.. Downes introduced Gov. Fuller as
the first speaker, saying that Of all the
soldiers Vermont sent to the war, a
greater percentage of the population
than any other state, "NONE WAS
MORE HONORED THAN LEVI
K. FULLER"
And the COW jumped er the moon.
And then the speech came, long and
eloquent. But not one word as to
Downes' reference to his glorious war.
like record. He absolutely left the
Boston veterans to believe, ifthey didn'l
know any better, that Downes told the
truth and that the scars OF the rebellion
we're thicker upon bis hide than spots
upon the leopard.
All Me!
Great is Vermont to possess such 8
hero!
Great is humbug

Paint at S1.25 per gallon.

Ten gallons of paint at S1.25 per
gallon is $3.50. Labor for painting
$40. The $l25 is short measure,
one gallon must be added therefore to
make ten full gallons of paint. To-
tai cost $3.50. This paint may last
three years, not longer. In twelve
years you will have painted your
house four times at a total cost of
s215OO, which is sl7.01 per annum.
Paint at S1.6O per gallon.
Ten gallons of paint at S1.6O per
gallon is $1,000. Labor for painting
$40. Total cost $4,000. This SLIGO
paint, if it is the Chiffon, will last six
years. In twelve years you will have
painted your house twice at a cost of
$112, which is 1888 per annum.
Chiffon Paint, as we have said, costs
you alittle more per gallon at the start
than some other paints, but it is
cheaper in the end, on ten gallons the
extra cost is $2.25. The saving to
you in twelve years is Sl03.00
