The Moral.

Is that if you have any induce
ment to hold out to the 1900
residents and the throngs of
strangers constantly visiting
the largest town in Schuylkill
you should use the columns of
the HERALD.
Not only does it guarantee
the widest publicity, but its
rates are proportionately low.

Harry Gore, who was riding on the en-
CINE, jumped before the engine reached
the bridge, and escaped with a bruised
shoulder. The company surgeon, DR..
Thorn from Liberty Hill and another from
Leander. were ON the grounds very short
ly, and at 7:30 p. m. special train was
sent out, taking with it DR.. Neal Watt,
he company's surgeon at Austin. The
urgeon from Liberty Hill pronounced the
men as not seriously hurt. Frank Brown,
the colored brakeman, did an act which
commends him to the respect of all, it was
his, when he saw the derailment he
managed to uncouple the coach from the
train and set up the brakes and managed
to stop the coach, containing several pas
sengers, just in time to keep it from GO
ing down with the rest of The train. He
has demonstrated by this act that he can
be trusted with the lives of people, and the
company will certainly show its aprIccd;
ton of this heoric act by iitting reward.
1t will be several days before trains can
cross, but passengers and baggage, mail
and express will be transferred mornings
and evenings with but little delay.

took it out and threw it over into the
yard, where it was subsequently found.
MRS. AICARDPS STORY.
Mrs. Aicardi was carried into the
House, where DR.. Graves examined her
and found that she had been shot three
times. The first shot passed through
her left breast, struck rib and glanced
around. 1t lodged under the flesh on
the rear left side, where DR.. Graves
found it.
Another bullet made flesh wound
Just above the left hip and the third
wound is in the right leg above the
knee.
The first wound was made while Mrs.
Aicardi was seated in chair and the
pistol was so close that the powder burnt
hole in the front part of her dress. The
last two wounds were made while she was
running.
Mrs. Aicardi was seen by Statesman
reporter shortly after and she was doing
remarkably well, none of the wounds being
serious.
The story told is that her husband in
tended to leave town during the after
noon on business and before leaving he
suggested a game of dominoes. Mrs.
Aicardi says she consented and sat down
at the table Mr.. Aicardi then said,
wait until go and get some money"
and he left the house.
Shortly after he returned through the
back yard, entered the room where his
wife was still sitting at the table, went
up to her and dashing handful of
quicklime in her face, drew his pistol and

rushed out of the door and onto the
sidewalk, followed by her husband, who
fired five shots, three of them taking
effect.
A CURIOUS STATEMENT.
Antonio Aicardi after throwing the pis-
toll over the fence into the yard, hurried
of his own accord to the police station,
where hegave himself up, saying he had
shot and killed his wife.
On being searched the following state.

To marry him l ought to begin TO tell
him falsehoods; my first was to tell him
that it would be advisable if he would

and then he would not need to go voyag-

THE following resolution, taken from
the platform adopted by the Repub-
.licans of Chase county at their recent
convention will afford a very good idea
of the feelings of the Republicans
throughout the state on the silver quss-
. ton. This is what it says:
We believe that the restoration of the
money of the Constitution is now the
paramount issue before the country, and
insist that ali parties shall plainly state
their respective positions upon the ques-
ton, in order that the voters may inIelii-
gently express their preference. We,
therefore. declare ourselves in favor of
the immediate restoration OF the free and
unlimited coinage of American gold and
silver at the present legal ratio of IS to
|, as such coinage existed prior to 1878,
without waiting for the aid or consent of
any other nation, such gold aud silver
coin to be full legal tender for all debts,
public and private.
