The First Crash.
In telling the STORY of THE wreck
Captain Whitehead cites some in
stances of the first crash. He said:
We were coming down the river
and making good time. 1 was in the
pilot house aud was just starting to
supper. When 1 reached the cabin
deck 1 noticed the boat heading too
much toward shore, as l thought and
stopped to see what was the matteG.
AIT this time a Mr.. Garland, of Cave
in-Rock, H., came up and told him
of the situation. He said:
Il can't swim. How can be be
saved"
Il told him to catch a plank and
jump when the boat struck.
Garland jumped and was the first
man off the boat. When the shock

way Of the boat parted the line and
she swung into the river. 1 saw the
boat was sinking and helped to lower
the boats and assisted the lady passen-
gers into one of them. The steamer
was then rocking, ana went 10 the
upper deck, expecting to stay there
until help came. In less than four
minutes the boat had gone down over
her upper decks and was knee deep
in water. / jumped and began swim
ming in the dark, when a. negro, who
was frightened and Ehghting for life,
caught me by the hair. / finally fought
him away and saw him go down to rise
no more.
Just as reached shore, [ heard a
loud report, saw a great fame and the
cabin of the boat rose high in the air
and then l knew the boilers had burst.
When I looked around I saw a yawl
with people who had boarded it be-
fore 1 left the boat go down and none
of them were saved

Homestead Employees Steal a March
on the Company.
Homestead, Pa, Jan. 2o.-The employees
of the Homestead steel plant have stolen
a march on the company, and the Anal
gamated association has again secured
81 foothold in the works by the organiza-
ton of at least one lodge. the first since
the break of the big strike Of 1892.
The organizati ton was necessarily ac-
complished with much secrecy, and it is
understood that only the most trust
worthy in each OF the departments were
selected for the initial step, and through
them it is hoped to regain the old-time
DOW er of the association in the mill. Then
the original charters of the eight lodges
which existed prior to the famous strike,
VIII probably be returned to the officers.
The lodge already organized IS what is
termed the general lodge, which win en-
brace workers of all kinds. From this
lodge they will be graduated into the sub
lodge to be organized in each depart
ment-
That the combination spirit is rife
among the men was evidenced by the at
tendance at the open meeting today. Be
tween 1000 and LOO men were present
President Garland, of che Amalgamated
association, was made president Of the
meeting and the newspaper men secre-
taries.
No more open meetings viii be held
The work in the future viii be done in
strictest secrecy.

ATTEMPT TO ROB.
Desperadoes Are Bamed at Momence,
Illinois.

Momence, ILL.,, Jan. 2O-An attempt to
rob the Exchange bank of this towr,
would have been successful had it not
been for detectives from Chicago, aided
by the town marshal and assistants who,
after d fierce battle with the robbers, sue
ceeded in capturing Weed Love of Mo-
rnence, who became separated from the
rest of the gang in the confusion OF the
fight There were two and possibly three
others in the gang and they got away
in the darkness. Later one of the bur-
glars named Schaff was captured and the
detectives are in pursuit of the others.
Robberies in Momenoe have been SO num-
erous during the past few months that
the Chicago detectives had been recently
employed to ferret out the perpetrators
The operatives sent here gained the conf
dence of the gang and learned of their
plan to rob the bank last night Had
| they succeeded they would have secured
about $4,000 in cash.

linger in thy leafy ways,
dream beside thy reedy shores,
And watch the eagle wheel and poise
Cloud high above thy shining floors.
Or note the heron, frighted oft.
Betake his flight, serene and slow,
And his long pinons plumed and soft,
Mate with their shadowy ghosts below.
And sweet the ipples kiss the reeds
And shake the purple blooms among,
And send a whisper through lush weeds
Where nests the marsh-fow and her young.
And dreAmful peace the senses laves,
And bliss the spirit scarce defines
Seemed voiced within the lisping waves
And soft winds signing in the pines,
Thy shores unclasp with leafy vine
Thy bays and shining reaches wide.
Or fade. in lines detached and dim
Smudged by the smoke of eventide
And all across thy purple ways
And long WIDE reaches. cool and calm,
The sun hath spread his level rays
And touched with fire thy groves of palm
IT'S eve; the blooms are deep in musk,
And stars are tremnlOus in the rose,
The wee birds twitter in the dusk,
And fretted leaflets clasp and close
The shadows fall on weir and brake,
The yellow light OF eve declines,
The ripples die upon the lake,
The breezes faint amid the pines.
