A FATAL ACCIDENT.

A very sad accident happened here
on Wednesday evening, August 2, at
ten minutes after three. As first Sec
ton OF No. SO was passing the depot,
going north, L. G.. Cain, the head
brakeman, was passing over the train;
it was running about Is miles an hour.
and as he went to jump from car of
granite on to car of long piling his
foot slipped on the piling, throwing
him backwards down on the ground
between the two cars; the first two cars
ran over his right arm and leg cutting
them off: then the balance of the cars
caught him and rolled and dragged him
200 wards, cutting him into mince
meat. His clothes were torn entirely
off of him and rolled into knot; 10
loaded cars ran over him. The train
had orders to meet south-bound
freight (No. ny, at Vulcan. and this
mans brother, VIM. Cain, was conduc-
tor of the train. They stopped as soon
as possible and picked up the scattered
remains and put them in box only
feet long: the blood stains can yet be
seen on the ties. The engine of this
unfortunate train cut loose and went
to Vulcan and brought down his broth.
or. and it was sad, sad sight to see
bim.moaning and crying over the death
of his poor brother, who, only a short
time before was in perfect health.
His body was taken to De Soto, where
his mother and father live. What a
sad meeting it was to them. L. q.
Cain was 90 years old; he lived at
Piedmont at one time with his brother,
who conducted the Square DEAL

but we are surprised to find things
moving along so well and to see such an
interest taken, contrary from what we
anticipated. We say to one, come, and
he cometh; and to another, go, and he

dOeth it. | never saw better obedience
rendered in any public school. The
writer has taught three schools in Iron
county and we have the honor of the
people unanimously of teaching the
| best term of school that they ever had
in each of these districts. We have
! taught here now, just one month,
and | know | never saw moro interest
! taken, nor better results. Each student
is doing remarkably good work, and is
coming to school to learn. We are
| teaching all the branches required by
law for third grade certificate. We
have a review once Il week in every
thing that we have gone over, and
| find this is a splendid thing.
A Sunday School here has lately been
organized by the writer with a good
attendance. We are glad to see such
an interest taken in Sunday School
work. And we hope that the people
will '.never tire in well doing" as the
Bible says: 'sfor whatsoever man
soweth, that shall he also reap" We
are studying the international lessons,
and we each, outside of this, commit a
verse to memory to repeat on Sunday.
Corn looks remarkably good, con-
sidering the late planting. We attend
ed the July meeting at Goodland and
they had good meeting.
Mr.. Fred Cureton, and ex-teacher of
this district, gave us visit recently,
and gave us pleasant talk on some of
the wonders Of the Worlds Fair.

A ragged, barefooted boy, crossing
sweeper, had dotted his cap to the Ouch.
ess of Sutherland in the hope Of recor-
milton, when he observed well dressed
but rakish looking man following her
across the street, as if trying to force
upon her attentions that were evidently
obnoxious to her. There was n look of
distress on the duchess face.
"Scuse me, lady," said boys voice
beside her, "shall l punch is 'eud:"
She turned. looked down angrily upon
the little sweeper, and then saSl, smiling:
''Why, it's Jemmiel'
She had remembered his name after
all, and at that moment the boy was hers,
body and soul. Without waiting for
another word he dashed off and turned
sort of violent "cartwheel" so adroitly
calculated that he landed with two very
muddy feet i'll the middle of the offensive
mans waistcoat.
Then. before the man could recover
from the shock, the boy had slapped him
with one muddy hand across the mouth
and with the other had deposited hand
full of the filthy compound on the back
of his neck
The next moment the boy was in the
grasp of policeman, who dragged him
away to the nearest police station. He
was just being charged by the constable
with having committed an assault when
the duchess entered. She spoke kindly
to the gamin and then explained the af-
fair to the inspector on duty.
At her request the boy was set at
liberty, and he staid only long enough
to say to the inspector:
