Tive Lives Saved.

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction
City, ELL, was told by her doctors she
had consumption and that there was no
hope for her, but two bottles of DR..
Kings New Discovery completely cured
her, and she says it saved her life. Mr..
Thos. Eggers, 139 Florida street, San
Francisco, suffered from dreadful cold,
approaching consumption; tried without
result everything else, then bought one
bottle of DR.. Kings New Discovery, and
in two weeks was cured. He is naturally
thankful. It is such results, of which
these are samples, that prove the won
derful efficacy of this medicine in coughs
and colds. Free trial bottles at John Y.
MaeRaefs drug store. Regular size SOC

EVIDENCE SUFFICIENT.

The Spectator of (of n y tables for 1895
have appeared, showing the rate of interest
earned by the % leading life insurance
companies They show that the Union
Central Life Insurance Co, of Cincinnati,
o., ratio for 1894 is 70l per cent, against
5.66 per cent, the highest of any other COM
pany, and 4.99 per cent, the general aver
age. This is All extraordinary showing for
the Union Central, being / 35 per cent
above the ratio of any other company.
That is to say, on an equal amount of
money invested the Union Central earns
as much as the best of the other companies
and nearly one fourth more
Extending the comparison for twenty
years, from 1875 to 1894, the average of the
Union Central for all that time is 66
against So, the highest of any other COM
pany, and 5.5S the general average
The Union Central average per cent of
death claims for thirteen years, compared
to mean amount Of insurance in force, has
been 0 IS, or IS cents for each hundred dol
lars insured. The lowest aver ge of any
other company has been 0 7S and the high
est 2:10. The average of the twenty four
other best companies bas been 1876.
The above are the vital points of man
agement in a life insurance company, and
from the actual records we can grant all
any other company claims and still have
margin left In Cur favor.
The results of high interest and low
QeaCn raUes are Ter Tine dement, or the In
sured. BY these excessive virtues the old
Union Central (now with more than 3d.
SOC, 900 assets) has been for over eight years
paying the full face of their policies to
those who insured with us from IS to "a
years ago, though they paid us but the
same premium usu lilly collected for pol
icy payable only at death. We paid over
$12500O in 1894 to the living holders of
these poll lies, so we have thoroughly de-
monstrated that you do not have to die
to win" cheap life rate policy with the
Union Central, though our rivals for Is
years claimed it could not be done by any
company.
No company excals the liberalityo our
policy contract as to cash at your COM
mand, patd-up policy, extended insurance,

or travel. State age and write for cost, etc.

TERRIBLE RAILWAY WRECK
Some One TUNED Switch and Nailed
Two Persons Killed-ROlnnl Reed and
Associates Injured-WOnderfu1 Es-
cape From Greater Damage.

MACON. Ca. March e.-The Florida ves-
tibule train going south was terribly
wrecked at Scotland, Ga. by tempered
switch. The train consisted of three Pull
mans, first and second-class coaches, mail
and express car. Every one Of these was
derailed. The Pullman and first and sec
ond-class coaches were thrown on their
sides.
One of the coaches was occupied by the
Roland Reed Company, and the other had
a full complement of passengers.
Mrs. c. H. Subers Of Pickens, Miss. with
ticket to Ocala, Fla, and her tive-year-old
daughter were killed.
The injured are: Roland Reed, leg and
back: Miss Mary Myers. New York,
wrenched in back and shoulder; Jas. Doug
lass. Brooklyn, slightly injured: Miss 1sa-
dore Rush, New York, slightly injured;
Julian Reed, Philadelphia, slightly injured;
w. +. Berian, New York, slightly injured.
All of the above are Of the Reed Co..
who cancel their dates and return to At
lanta.
Mr. and Mrs. Hoffner of Elivia, Ohio and
Mrs. r. H. Morton of Cincinnati are slight
ly injured. Mr.. Roland Reed, at great
risk, rescued three of the ladies from the
burning car. Mrs. Suber's nursing babe
escaped uninjured.
That there was no greater damage Is
miraculous, as the train was running fifty
miles an nour.
An Atlanta, Ca, dispatch says: The
switch had been turned and nailed down
by unknown parties. Engineer Moore saw
this, reversed his engine and applied the
air brakes. but it was too late:
Rush and Mrs. Mary Myers are not
serious.

A Lively Blaze.

There was an exciting scene in police
headquarters about 1 o'clock this after
noon when fire was discovered in the de-
tectives' room adjoining the Office of In
spector Hollinberger. Several members of
the detective corps were in the front room
when they noticed smoke coming from the
rear room. When one of the detectives
went to the door he saw a big blaze in the
room. The fire had started under the desk
Of Detective Rhodes, and the burning of
a big calendar on the wall made quite a
blaze. For a couple Of minutes 1t appear
ed as If the fire would spread and do con-
siderable damage, but Detect tive Boyd
emptied the contents of the water cooler
on the burning desk, and with the assist
ance of others soon eXtinguished the
flames.
The fire happening as it did in the build
ing soon to be occupied by the Commits
sioners showed plainly the necessity for
stand pipe and hose to protect the build
ing from fire.
The only damage done was the partial
burning of the desk and carpet.

THE SHOOTING OF FOSTER.
District Attorney Birney Examining
Into the Affair.

District Attorney Birney Examining
Into the Affair.
Referring to the shooting last Monday Of
the young colored man, Foster, by Officer
Green, near Hillsdale, District Attorney
Birney stated to a Star reporter this after
noon that he was engaged today in reading
the testimony in the case. He would also
send for witnesses and he remarked that
The Star could state that there was not the
least doubt of his placing the testimony
before the grand jury. and asking for an
indictment of the policeman.
1t is understood that this will be done at
once, and an Indictment, should the grand
jury hold the officer responsible, would
probably be returned in few days. While
the grade of the offense is always in the
discretion of the grand jury, it is believed
that the Indictment, If there is any, would
rot be for offense more serious than
manSlaughter.
The penalty for manslaughter is i'm
prisonment for not more than ten years
or fine of not more than $1,000, or both.
The Imprisonment, If less than year, is
in Jail. More than that it must be in the
penitentiary.
The district attorney was called upon yes
terd.iy afternoon by Col. Perry Carson and
the other members of the committee of col
ored citizens appointed to call the attention
of the prosecuting authorities to the case.
The committee had first called upon the
clerk of the Police Court for a warrant for
the officers arrest, and was referred to Mr..
Birney. The district attorney informed the
