KILLED BY HIS BRorHER.-A dis
tressing and fatal accident occurred
near Chesterfield, Nd, on Tuesday, re-
sulting in the death of John Small
wood, son of Mr.. Reuben Smallwood.
He was shot by his younger brother.
The two boys were hunting weaseis in
the woods near their fathers home,
just on the skirting of some cleared
land. They had tracked one to pile
of lumber, under which the little ami.
NAL had taken refuge. John had laid
his gun down, and was poking under
the lumber with a pole. His younger
brother was standing close by, on the
alert for the reappearance of the wea-
sci. The gun was pointing towards
John, when the hammer caught in the
younger boys coat, and fell. The en-
tire load entered Johns body. He
jumped in the air, and fell heavily upon
the ground, dying in few minutes.
The younger boy is almost crazed with
grief.

A MAN in Michigan has brought suit
against a woman for breach of promise
of marriage. According to the idea
of the equality of the sexes, the plain
tiff should unquestionably succeed, as
he proves that the defendant courted,
though she subsequently Tilted him.
AS long as women have the special
rights of their sex to rely upon they
are specially defended and protected
but when they surrender those rights,
they have to run on equal terms with
the men, and then the devil take the
hindmost.

THURSDAY EVENING, NOV. %. 1894
In &c nov nronosed that Congress

IT IS now proposed that Congress
shall create commission that shall de-
wise plan for increasing and improv-
ing the currency of the country. Inns
proposition evidently means that those
who make it either hope to prom
themselves by its adoption, or e'se'
that they believe four hundred con-
pressmen are utterly incapable OF doing
what they suppose a commission OF
q few men who are not congressman
can do. There is no doubt in the minds
of manv wise Senators that lawmakers
elected by unrestricted suffrage ana
paid high salaries are utterly and en-.
tirely unfit for their POSITIONS
and that fewer men, otherwise select
ed. would be vastly more competent
and efficient, and less corrupt. But
there is nothing the matter with either
the character or the amount OF the ex
listing currency, nor would any plan OF
g commission or of Congress improve
it. The prevailing monetary trouble Is
the effect, not the cause, of the
depressed condition of the busl-
ness of the country. There is plenty OF
money in the Treasury and in the
banks, and every dollar Of it is as good
as gold, but no body can get cent OF
it except in exchange for something
else; nor couldn't if it were tenioid
as plentiful as it is. AS long as
Congress shall exist, bad as it is, 1t
should be required to perform its con-
stitutional duties, and not be allowed
to delegate those duties to other bodies;
and, of all the humbugs that have been
imposed upon the country, none is
greater than the commission system,
as has been demonstrated by the tariif,
the interstate commerce, and, greatest
of all, the civil service commission
Nor more commissions.

JUMPED FROM A BURNING BUILDING.
Two women were dangerously and one
probably fatally hurt yesterday morn.
ing by jumping from the third story of
a disorderly house kept by Nellie La
rue, No. 412 Thirteenth street, Wash
ington, which caught fire in the kitchen,
mention of which was made in yester-
days GAZETTE. The female inmates
were asleep. The smoke and flames
created a panic among them. They
rushed to the windows and leaped out.
Dolly Herbert and Flora Smith were in
their night clothing. The first escaped
with slight injuries, but the latter fell
and was seriously injured. She was
sent to the Emergency Hospital. 1t is
thought that her spine is injured. or
the others who leaped, Minnie Moore
has her back injured and Belle Addi-
son has her collar-bone broken and her
skull hurt. The fire swept the dwell
ing, which belonged to Mrs. Annie
Muller, of 722 Eleventh street north
west. The loss will be about s., 600.
The proprietress of the house estimates
her loss at $1,000. The loss is covered
by the insurance. The prop.ietress Of
the establishment, while the fire was in
progress, ran about crying "My baby !!
Save my baby !" and refused to be COM
forted until one of the firemen brought
her pug dog which he had recovered
from theidames, and she went off happy.
She seemed to care more for her dog
than she did for her wallet, which was
picked up in the yard by fireman and
returned to her. 1t contained several
hundred dollars. Her diamonds and
roll of notes were saved by detective
and returned to her.

TRAIN ROBBERS PUT TO RoUT.-It
was nearly one o'clock Tuesday night
when the Texas express on the Rock

ahead on. the track about twenty miles
south of FL Reno, o. r., and near Min

or fireman could dismount to see what
was the matter, winchesters were

men who stepped up on each side. Five
other masked men proceeded to the
express car, while several guarded the
horses. They repeated threats of blow
ing open the car with dynamite, and on
completion Of preparations to carry out
their threat the messenger and guard
were induced to open the door.
Four men leaped into the car, and
while one guarded the messenger and
guard the others proceeded to adjust
drills and explosives to force open the
through safe. Before they could &C.
complish anything, however, the con-
ductor and brakemen and number Of
passengers rallied and came toward The
express car, firing as they came. The
bandits outside and on the engine re-
turned the fire, but the battle soon
got so hot the marauders were COM
PEELED to retreat without any plumber.
The messenger and guard grabbed theil
Winchesters and opened fire.
The robbing party were at last driv
en- into the woods, and the train pro-
ceeded. Two of the bandits fell in the
fight, but were carried away by their
comrades and it is not known how
badly they were injured.
The train proceeded on to Texas,
and it is impossible to get any definite
particulars about the Injured or killed.

The Board Of Public Works Ordered the
First Lot Yesterday.

Secretary Oliphant of the board Of
public works yesterday morning or
dered the first shipment Of the water
pipes that are to be used in the city's
System of water works. The order
was for 1000 tons of pipe, most Of it
being big main pipe, though the Or
der alaO included sufficient amount of
small pipe that is naturally required
for taps and the like Mayor McDOn-
aid was recently in receipt OF a
letter from Mr.. Harrison, presi-
dent of the Howard Harrison iron
company in which that gentlemen
stated that he had been sent, one of
the now notorious 'boud buyers" by
a Northern friend, containing an
article advising all people of sense 0
leave the Austin dam bonds alone. In
answer to this Mr.. Harrison wrote to
the gentlemen in question that he
had quite a number of the Austin
bonds in his possession aud was not
only willing but anxious to take more
of them. That he considered them
gilt edge, and Mr.. Harrison further re
quested of the gentleman that his
letter should be sent to The Bond
Buyer for publication.
Secretary Oiphant yesterday morn
ing also instructed Engineer Faunir
to procure at the earliest possible date
an engineer to take the late Mr.
loves place. Secretary Orphan
else notified the contractors in Chat
tanoOga that the pipe was en- routt
and that they must come over here a
once prepared to- place it in tn
ground. Thus, citizens Of Austin
your wish is about gratifled-Austil
is 10 have her own water works.
