/. Now when John the Senator had
greatly deceived the people andsat in the
seat of Wade, the just, he perceived how
little he appeared in the eyes of all wise
men.
Q. But being exceedingly great in his
own conceit. be did sound his trumpet
before him as the hypocrites do, to be
seen of men.
8. He did also seek to delude his fol-
lowers by sending forth false writings
through all the land, so that it might be
thought that be was man of wisdom.
4. And he did fall upon Hugh, the
Captain of the Hosts, and others in
authority, and spoke despitefully' OF
them.
S. However, the people were not mis-
led by his much speaking, for they knew
q Weaverite, though afar off.
6. And Hugh did prepare a great writ
ing against him, whereby he showed that
fool was known by his folly, and John
the Senator was sorely troubled in mind
and answered not again.
7. There came also one James, called
"Craddock," who showed the wicked
practices of John the Sena' r, so that he
became Jest and bywurd among as
many as knew him.
s. It chanced, furthermore, that John
the Senator, went in and out among the
vendors of strong drink, who bereft him
of his reason.
9. And as lie journeyed he fell in with
an Ethiopia, servant OF the carriers ol
travellers.
10. When he had fallen in with this son
of Ethiopia, they drank wine in the
morning and did mingle strong drink all
the day long.
Ii. Now, when he was fully drunken
the little reason he possessed departed
from him, and he did behave himself
unseemly among the people.
10. And when he had come unto the
city of Benjamin, the Tillmanite, be did
put as many as beheld him in great fear
BY reason Of his warlike actions.
Is. Having entered into chariot he
put the driver thereof in great fear 80

did hide himself from the wrath of John

II. But when deep sleep had come
upon him, the driver Of the chariot, not
Withstanding Ills fear, did convey him
unto the honse Of Benjamin, the master.
Is. When he had arrived at the house

16. Nevertheless, being cast down by
much wine, he disclosed not the nature
of the tidings which so sorely did rend
his soul.
II. When Benjamin, the Tillmanite,
had beheld him stretched out upon the
chariot, and the driver thereof stricken
with great fear, he was much troubled in
spirit and lamented greatly.

unto him bottle OF strong drink he
straightway dismissed him unto his own

a Big Undertaking.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 2O.-The Chicago and
St. Louis Electric Railroad Company has
on exhibition in this city a complete
model of one of the rapid transit coaches
proposed to be ;1sed between st. Louis
and, Chicago when the road is completed.
It will be sent to the Worlds Fair.
Work on the road has been going on
since October 6, 1892, and there are now
twenty-six miles of roadbed graded in
Christian county, ILL.,, in which the CEN
tral power house is to be located, near the
Edinburgh coal mine. The equipment
contract calls for che furnishing of twenty
high-speed cars, each car to be provided
with four multiphase current induction
moters. $50 horse power each, 500 volts.
They will have gearless attachments with
provision for varying the speed. The
motors, if properly supplied with cur
rent, are capable of propelling suitably
constructed car of 10000 pounds total
weight at 100 miles per hour. This con-
tract amounts to $500,000. There'll be
three or four power houses 1T the mouths
of coalmines. About one half Of the
bonds, the managers say, have already
been disposed of, and SS,0OO,00O more
must be sold to insure the completion Of
the road. DR.. Adams will make a jour-
uty W GuECpo Niulu luo uoAG IulILy
days for the purpose of disposing of the
bonds still on hand.
Each of the high-speed cars will carry
its own motive power, there being q
motor directly applied without gearing
to each axle of the trucks, of which there
are two--one at each end of the car. The
trucks in their construction will repre-
sent the higher degrees of art of construc-
ton for railroad running gear, and the
method OF mounting the electric motors
will represent the latest ideas. Each
truck is to be provided with two air
brakes, and the car is TO be Sc constructed
as to bug'the tracks closely and stand
low, so as to avoid its being top heavy
and thus make it less liable to leave the
track.
The front of the car is to be constructed
in semi-wedge shape, SO as to decrease
the atmospheric resistance, which is a
very important factor when running at
such high speed, and this wedge is to be
SO placed that what resistance remains
will be utilized in helping TO keep the
car on the track. 1t is also to he tapered
in the rear to avoid the back pull and the
tendency to the creation Of vacuum.
The rear portion OF the car may be folded
up and made flat when it is desired to
connect two cars, in which case the rear
ends Of both are coupled together, leav-
ing the pointed ends at each end of the

Terrell, the Educator.
Columbia State.

Those interested in politics are begin
ming to look forward to the advent
in This State of Ben Terrell and
the opening of the Alliance Populist
campaign. The time for openly incul-
eating Populism into the Alliance is ap-
preaching.
Work on this linehas been in progress
the present summer, but it seems that
the avowed undertaking Of accomplish
ing the task of making the Alliance
throw of the Democratic cloak, will
have its beginning with the appearance
of Terrell.
The utterances of Governor Tillman re-
Gently show as plainly as language can
that the Alliance-the farmers he calls
thern-have very little in common
with the platform of the Democratic par
ty.. .,
The State Alliance organ through its
editor, and the State Alliance through its
president, J. VIM. Stokes, and many
other leaders, have spoken out boldly,
and there is no longer .eason to doEb bt
that if the proposed National Farmers u
or Populist party movement is pushed
along the lines suggested in the call for
the big convention to be held in St.
Louis on October s, and meets with favor
every effort will be made to lead South
Carolina to the altar. The plan of politi-
cal campaign which the Alliance pro-
poses to begin to operate in this State on
January l, Indicates plainly that the AL
lance is going to do everything in its
power to carry this State, especially the
Congressional districts, into the Populist
camp and that too, before another nation
al election.
Governor Tillman's prompt compliance
with the request sent him by the pro-
moters of the st. Louis convention marks
his attitude and his action in sending
the Congressional representatives as del
gates may Indicate what his and their do
sire is.
The campaign will open pext month,

Inquiry has been made many times
why it is that the United States Senate
cannot reach a vote on the repeal bill.
The Washington correspondent Of the
Atlanta Constitution says it is because
the Senate acts entirely by unanimous
consent. Under its rules there can be no
vote as long as any Senator desires to
discuss the pending question. These
same rules have been in force in the
Senate for a hundred years and that
body has always managed to do business
under them. Although many times at
tempts have been made to provide for a
previous question in the Senate it has
always failed. The presiding officer Of
the Senate could exercise extreme pow
or and cut off debate and dilatory mo-
tions by refusing to recognize Senators /;
but no presiding officer has eyer resort
ed to this power. Vice President Ste
venson will rot do it. Therefore, it can
readily be seen that no vote can ever be
reached in the Senate on the repeal bill
as long as there are Senators who are
determined to talk and who will talk in

Train Wreckers' Work.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA.. Sept. pa south
bound limited express on the Queen and
Crescent route was wrecked at l o'clock
this morning nineteen miles north Of
Birmingham. The wreck occurred on a
curve and embankment. One end OF the
rail had been displaced by removal Of
fish plates. Near by lay tools which had
been stolen from the section house at
Sumerville, seven miles away, and with
which the rails had been taken up. The
engine leaped from the track down the
embankment. In so doing, the engineer
and tiremen were hurled away out of all
danger. The postal and baggage cars
were piled on top of the engine and
crushed like egg shells. The express
messenger was imprisoned in the wreck
age, but got out unhurt. The train being
vestibuled, none of the coaches or Sleep
ers, OF which there were five, turned
over. The train was full of people COM
ing from the Worlds Fair, none Of whom
were hurt.
Fireman Walter Waite has his shoul-
der blade broken; engineer Fraley hurt
in the shoulder and eye cut; postal clerk
J. S. Stockton badly cut in the head !;
fagman Tom Bailey hurt in back porter
Howell cut. All of the injured wore
brought here to the hospital.
Superintendent Fraser and Sheriff
Morrow were at the scene of wreck with
blood hounds after the supposed wreck
ers. It is thought the wreckers had q
grudge against the road on account Of
some law suits or something of the kind.

This Is Getting Epidemic.

CENTRAL1A, Ills, Sept. 21.-The New
Orleans limited train on the Illinois Gen.
tral Railroad was held up shortly after
II o'clock last night. just outside the city,
and in the battle which followed between
the robbers and train hands one of the
robbers was mortally wounded and three
of the crew badly hurt. The thieves got
nothing in the way of booty, and all the
grown inhabitants of the place are on the
hunt for the daring thieves who got
away. Those who were hurt in the
shooting incident to the attack were
Engineer Young, Conductor Odum, Fire
man Mcdowell, and one robber.
Two robbers boarded the engine and
shot the engineer and fireman and stop
ped the train soon after leaving Centralia,
Two others went to the express car and
cut their way into it. The conductor and
baggage men were prepared and royal
battle followed. Passengers being arous-
ed came to the rescue and one of the
robbers named Jones was mortally
wounded.
The others then fled. The report OF
the robbery was carried back to the city,
and the whole town was aroused. They
secured the country and succeeded in
capturing all four. They were all ex-
railroad men but had developed into
criminals.
The engineer will die but the other
trainmen will recover.

The Democratic members Of the Ways
and Means Committee in Congress met 8
few days ago and appointed subcommit
tees to draft the new tariff bill and work
on certain features. Mr.. Wilson, the
chairman of the committee, and Mr.. By
mum will have general charge of the bill,
the welding of its different sections to-
gether and its phraseology. Among the
subcommittee appointed was one which,
to say the least, is suggestive. It's title is
"Internal Revenue and Income Tax"
This would suggest, as will probably be
the case, that there will be an income tax
provided for In the bill. The Dem ocrats
of the committee are now actively at
work, working night and day. The
hearings, which, towards the end, al
was expected, became largely farce,
having been concluded, as per schedule
on the 2Oth, and now the active work oil
compiling figures, addition, satisfaction
and division and the dry details of sched"
ales, statistics and estimates give en-.
ployment to the committee. The expec-
tation is that the bill will be ready to be
reported to the House during the first
week in November. 1t will be.a COM
plete bill in all its particulars, not bill
for year or two, but bill that its MAX
ers feel sure will live for years and years
as the standard theory Of the United
States in matters of taxation and the
raising of revenue. There is every rea-
son to believe there will be an income
tax feature to the bill with the expecta-
ton perhaps of raising from $SO,oOo,OOD
to 800, 900. 1t is likely, too, that a
small tariff duty will be levied on sugar
"a purely revenue duty-and that the
bounty law will be repealed. 1t is known
that the most thoughtful as well as the
most scientific of the political economists
in both branches of Congress believe that
there ought to be revenue tax on sugar.
There will be some opposition to this,
but it is likely that a majority will favor
