FREIGHT TRAIN WRECKED.
Mistake In Orders Causes Head End
Collision on Hooking Valley.

GALL1roL1s, o., Dec. pa costly
wreck occurred on the Hooking Valley
road near Glen Summit, this county,
last night. Two fast freights bound
in opposite directions came together
with terrific crash. AS usual a mis-
take in train orders caused the col
lision. Two engines and seven heav-
lily loaded freight cars were complete
ly demolished and fragments strewn
in every direction.
The main track was blockaded for
20 hours and mail trains were all de-
layed. The wreck occurred on hill,
probably 200 feet high, and on short
curve between two high trestles. The
crews Of the trains had miraculous
escapes, having jumped before the
trains came together. All were more
or less injured but none fatally.-Col-
umbus Dispatch.

Three Men Convicted and Sentenced
to be Hanged, but the Real MUIR
derer Confesses to His Crime.
A special from Pittsburg Pa,
says: BY a confession of the real
murderer, it Is likely that Andrew
10th, George Rusnak and Michael
Sabol, who are now serving life
sentences In Riverside Penitenti-
ary for the murder of Michael
Quinn, will be released. On New
Years Day, 1891, the Carnegie
Steel Co. had trouble withits labor
ers at the Edgar Thompson Steel
Works at Braddock. About 700
Slavs and Hungarians were em-
ployed at the works, among them
the three who are now in prison.
On the night of December 81, a
crowd ofthe strikes descended up
on the works and were driven
back. The following noon the mob
attacked the works again and quite
q battle enshed. Michael Quinn,
an engineer, was struck upon the
head and fatally injured. The next
day a large number Of arrests were
made, among them being 10th,
Rusnak and Sabol. They were
tried and convicted of Quinn's
murder and sentenced were COM
muted to life imprisonment.
A short time ago two Hunga-
rians quarreled near Scranton and
each had the other arrested. One
Of them sent for the police officials
and told them thAt the other pris-
oner was a murderer, having killed
man in a riot at Braddock on
New Years Day, 1891. The police
investigated and became convinced
that the story was true. Attorney
Blakely, who has charge Of the
case for the convicted men, will
leave for Scranton to-day or to-
morrow to complete the evidence
that he will lay before the Pardon
Board,

Grandma was a pillar In the Con-
gregational church, writes Eugine
Field IN tenderlypathetic remin-
iscence Of his grandmother under
the title Of "The Woman Who Most
Influenced Me" in the January
Ladies' Home Journal. AT the de-
cline and disintegratlon ofthe Uni.
versalist society, she rejoiced as
cordially as n a temple Of Baal or
an idol Of Ashtaroth had been over
turned. Yes, grandma was puri-
tanical--not to the extent Of per-
secution, but puritan In the se-
verify Of her faith and In the exact
ing nicely Of her Interpretation of
her duties to God and mankind.
Grandna's Sunday began at 8
o'clock Saturday evening; by that
hour her house was swept and garn-
ished, and her lamps trimmed and
every preparation made for quiet,
reverential observance of the sew
enth day. There was no cooking
there on Sunday. At noon Mrs.
Deacon Ranney and other ladies
used to come from church with
grandma to eat luncheon and dis
cuss the sermon and suggest deeds
of piety for the ensuing week. ]
remember Mrs. Deacon Ranney
and her frigid companions very
distinctively; they never smiled
and they wore austere bombazines
that rnstled and squeaked dolor'
ously. Mrs. Deacon Ranney sell
dom noticed me further than to re
gard me with a look that seemed
ito stigmatize me as an incipien,
vessel of wrath that was to be dis
approved Of and never liked Mrs
Deacon Ranney after I heard hel
reminding grandma one day tina
Solomon had truly said, "Spare tn
; rod and spoil the child"

One Of the first things that man
ufacturer or merchant does when he
goes into business is TO put out a sign,
DO the public can locate him and know
in what goods he deals. This Is justly
looked upon ~ necessity. Fol-
lowing the thought . little further,
what is an advertisement but q sign,
"a travelling sign going regular before
buyers, just as travelling salesmen do,
only where travelling salesman can
visit tens, travelling sign or sales
man visits thousands. In points Of
fact, each supplements the other.
The travelling sign introduces the
goods Of the travelling salesman; the
travelling salesman follows up and en-
forces the work Of the travelling sign.
The travelling salesman sometimes
cannot get the attention Of the buyer
the travelling sign is always waiting
and reaches the buyers attention
when he has time to read and think.
The present development Of com.
merce would be impossible without
the newspaper. Where would the
great fortunes which have been made
by baking powder, chocolate, mineral
water, champagne, bitters and othel
manufacturers, the great dry goods
and department stores, together
with thousands Of others, of which
these are but types, be, II it had no,
been for the opportunity afforded b,
the newspapers to keep their nam'
and goods before the understandin,
I,of the peoples
II merchants appreciated their op
portunity and the mine Of wealtl
lying before them, when Intelligent,
worked, concludes the America
Grocer, they would run after pub
fishers, seeking an opportunity t
place their signs before the people
instead of publishers running afte
them and soliciting them to advertise

RHEUMATIsN PREVALENT.

Rheumatism Is more prevalent
here than ever before. When this
disease fastens upon an individual
with its soreness and pain, swelling
the joints, rendering him helpless
in his movements, he Is indeed an
object Of pity. The slight pain in
the back, joints or muscles, is .
warning indication Of an improv-
ished condition Of the blood, and II
not attended to at once, means
rheumatism.
Since the introduction Of DR.. Da-
vid Kenedy's Favorite Remedy,
there have been fewer rheumatic
sufferers. Favorite Remedy drives
out rheumatic poison from the
blood, restores the circulation,
strengthens the nerve power. The
best proof Of It's value, is the good
II has done.
II was afflicted with, infiamma-
tory rheumatism for fifteen years."
writes Mr. E. Player, of East Mas
sau, N. Y, $50 severe that was
supposed to be cripple for life.
Under physicians treatment I grew
worse. DR.. Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy helped me from the time I
flrst used it,and entirely cured me-"
The beautiful daughter OF Mr..
James Mcfarland, ,of De Moines, Ia,
was helpless for months with scist-
10 rheumatism. After Q few doses
Of DR.. Kennedy's Favorits Rsme-
dy, she began to grow better, and
continuing IT. use was cured.
Mr.. @. Lanslng, Of Troy, n. ",
had rheumatism 70 bad that he had
TO be turned over In bed. After
using DR.. Kennedy's Fay0rlte Rem
edy but . short while, was restored
70 health. Why then suffer with
rheumatism Of neuralgia This
medicine will help you.

No information has leaked from the
speakers room except remarks made
by Mr.. Reed to the friends OF member
who asked for the craftsmanship OF the

indicate that he has decided to give
