Al RAILROAD BUILT FOR FIVE DsLLlRs
Remarkable Achievemens Of an
Obscure Financial Napeiesu
In Texas.

From South Texas came a man who
built 600 miles Of railroad with q IS bill
and faith, and the bill was q borrowed
one. He moved up from Corpus Christi
to San Antonio with all his possessions
heaped mp on q two-wheeled cart. He
got charter to build railroad from San
Antonio to Arkansas Pass. He graded q
mile Of It, throwing good deal more
than one shovel Of dirt with his own
hands. The receiver Of another road
loaned this indefatigable builder enough
old rails for mile Of track. In distant
part Of the state was purchased al engine
which had been condemned six years be-
fore and sent to the shops to be wrecked
for scrap iron. Two old CAT were picked
up somewhere at bargain. And that
old engine, drawing those old cars.
steamed into San Antonio. On engine
and cars in bold lettering was painted in
lamp-black, "S. and A. p" with one
mile of old rail track and with the equip
ment Of the old engine and the two old
cars Uriah Lott started the Arkansas
Pass system. There has been some tall
financiering in the history Of railroad
building in this country, but there isn't
anything which, for dazzling pluck, quite
approaches the story Of the building Of
the 600 miles Of road in South Texas.
To the one mile OF track three were
added-three miles by dicker for some
secondhand rails which street car COM
pany had bought from q narrow gauge
company. On this basis a credit trade
was made with Pennsylvania rolling
mill for ten miles Of rails. When they
arrived there wasn't enough money in
the treasury to pay the freight. But it
was got somehow. Ten miles of track
gave the foundation for bonds which
built forty miles more, and so the system
grew into its present proportions. This
man who built the Arkansas Pass system
rode from San Antonio to Chicago, at one
critical period in his enterprise, without q
cent in his pocket. He had transporta-
ton, but he hadn't anything to buy food
and he went through hungry.

FATHER SHERMAN'S LASH,

Secret Orders.

He Makes Bitter Attack Upon Certain
Secret Orders.
ST. LOUIS, May 16.-The Rev. Father
Thomas E. Sherman, son Of Gen. William
T.. Sherman, preached Sunday night at
the Church Of the Annunciation on the
subject of "Americanism."
Father Sherman said that liberty meant
not only civil, but religious liberty, and he
figured out that religious liberty, at least
for Catholics, Is rapidly becoming circum'
scribed in the United States. He pictured
the Orangemen OF Canada and Ireland as
untrue to the principles Of fmanhood, their
country and their religion.
He then produceda u manual of the secret
rites and services of the Junior Order Of
American Workingmen, from which he
read the initiatory service. This service,
according to his reading, caused the
novitiate to swear allegiance to constis
tuition the principle object Of which was
the suppression Of the Order of Jesults.
The service included the use of Jesuit In
a cowl.
After reading that part, Father Sherman
exclaimed: "a thousand and one things
have been ascribed to and heaped upon
my order, but ask that, as a last indigA
nifty, you do not put cowl upon our
heads"
Continuing, Father Sherman denounced
all secret societies in unmeasured terms.

MURDERER ALMY HUNG.
The Brutal Murder OF Christie Warden
Avenged.

The Brutal Murder OF Christie warden
Avenged.
CONCORD, N. H., May 17.-George II.
Abbott, alias Frank G. Almy, was
hanged in the state prison for the
atrocious murder of Christie Warden at
Hanover, on the evening of July II,
1891. A large number of citizens came
from Hanover on the early morning
train, to witness the hanging, among
them being Bert Warden, brother Of
the murdered girl, and G. E. Hewitt,
the student who shot Almy in the
Warden barn, before he was captured.
The execution was bungling job.
Almy's feet touched the floor when he
fell through the drop and he was
strangled to death.
Few events in the criminal annals OF
New England have created the intensity
Of interest which has been manifested
in the murder of Chritie Warden and
the developments that followed. The
Identification of Almy as Abbott showed
him TO be one of the most remarkable
murderers ever known. OF the past Is
years he spent 10 in various prisons, and
yet he was not SO years Of age.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
An Interesting Debate at Simpson NJ. Il,

An Interesting Debate at Simpson N. Il.
Church.
An interesting debate came off last
night between the Maids of Esther and
the Simpson Debating club by their repre-.
sentatives on the Woman Suffrage ques'
ton and though the weather was unfavor-
able q goodly number ere present TO hear.
Miss Jessie Mckenzie opened for the
women in a telling speech demanding
their rights in all the walks OF life and
especially at the ballot box. Mr.. Elton
Bartlett replied in q strong address point
ing out the absurdity of the position taken
by the other side and showing that
woman's sphere Is in the house and not
at the poles nor in the affairs of state.
Mr.. Jacob Hawk Rsllantly came TO the
rescue of the affirmative, In the absence
Of the debater expected, and materially
assisted the argument. Mr.. Lawrence
Burroway closed For the negative with o
witty address. The judges decided two
to one In favor OF the affirmative and the
Maids of Esther felt that they had scored
one In this series of contests with the
young men. Another debate is TO be held
in the near future. A number of musical
selections were rendered last night which
were very pleasing, notably the piccola
solo by Master Lester Lincoln and the duet
by Misses Anna and Gussie Wilhelm.

He Must Quit Drinking.

COLUMBUS, May 17.-Governor Nc
Kinley has granted pardon to James
w. Dunfee, who was received at the
penitentiary srom Van Vert county in
October last to serve one year for man
slaughter. The case is one of the most
peculiar on record. Dunfee's crime, ac-
cording TO the statements of the trial
judge. the prosecutor and the Jury, was
unintentional. The killing was the re-
suit of criminal carelessness. 1t oc-
Cured at fox chase, and Dunfee, who
was intoxicated, recklessly fired a gun
In the air while madly riding pony.
The charge struck and killed a boy
named Gauzee. The degree Of careless.
ness exhibited by Dunfee was so great
as to need severe punishment, aud hence
his conviction. The pardon was granted
upon the condition that he abstain from
the use of intoxicants.

CINCINNATI, May ia novel swindle
is being worked in the interior counties
of this and adjoining states. A very
clerical looking man appears at the house
of prosperous farmer and announces
he is minister who is going TO preach
at q neighboring church. Soon after
young couple ride up and ask the
farmer to direct them to minist er, as
they wish to be married. The pr eacher
offers his services, the ceremony is per-
formed and the minister asks the farmer
and his wife to sign the marriage certifi-
cate. They readily do so, and soon re-
ceive notice of note in bank.
