Heavy Damages.

The largest sum ever paid by an
American railroad company for
injurses to single person was
given in check for $4,000 to
Mrs. Homer Baldwin, of Yonkers,
by the Few York Central a few
days ago. The injuries received
by Mrs. Baldwin in a rear end
collision at Hastings on Christmas
eve, 1891, were of nature so ter
rIble that it seems incredible that
she could have lived to ask dam
ages for them. The accident was
droved to have resulted for care
lessness in signaling. Mrs. Bald
win was crushed by heavy tim
bers and scalded by steam from
the engine, losing both eyes, both
ears, her right arm and left hand.
She brought suit for $50,000-a
sum that no human being would
takein exchange for the members
and faculties that she lost. The
company's defence was that she
was riding on a pass, but this was
not allowed to hold against the
terrible injuries she received, and
her attorneys finally agreed to a
settlement for $4,000. The dis
aster was SO dreadful in its results
and SO enormously expensive that
measures were at once taken look
ing to the perfection of the "block
system" of signaling by the New
York Central, system that will
render repetition of such an ac
cident physical impossibilty.

Spokane Review: It is report
ed that the United States will be
asked to recoup the speculative
losses of the Duke of Veragua, who
has lost his home through reckless
financiering on the Partisan bourse.
Isn't this carrying generosity to
an extreme? The United States
owes the duke nothing. AS a
lineal descendant of Columbus, it
has given him royal entertainment
aud asked nothing in return.
Now that he has been reduced to
comparative poverty through his
own lack of prudence and com-
mon sense, We can't see the moral
or sentimental obligation that
would require this country to
raise a fund for his relief. He
came into existence with birth,
title and estates to his credit. He
has lost his estates through sheer
plunging methods. It is no con-
cern Of ours.

A Playful Sturgeon.

One evening last week, says the
Oregon City Enterprise as Col.
Nevious, of Portland, was out in o
skiff with his wife, who was up
here for the purpose Of looking
about the city to see how she
would like to live here, and was
leisurely rowing about on the now
placid Willamette, he was sud-
denly astonished by the appear
ance Of huge something from the
water at the side of his boat which
springing into the air struck him
n blow upon the face which near
ly dazed him, and then falling
back rested for an instant or two
on the oar which the colonel was
holding, and then with the raising
of the oar slid off into the river.
The sturgeon for such it must have
been, was six feet long and was
doubtless a surprised fish, and Col.
Nevious and his wife were certain
ly much astonished by the sudden
appearance of the fish. The stur-
geon must have hurt itself by its
contact with the boat in coming
out of the water as besides the
slime which was left on the Col
onePs arm and face there appeared
considerable blood which must
have come from the fish. Mrs,
Nevious in speaking Of the Incl
dent stated that she thought il
some monster of the deep come to
attack her husband.

East Oregonian: Umatilla

600. This must stop before the
people of the county can have the

In other words the workers Of

fund of S125,000 every year which
enables at least five hundred peo-
pie to live and have a good time
without physical or mental ex-

against the wall to see if that
would produce any good results.
