train after being dragged 200 feet and
rolled over into the ditch, which was
filled with backwater from the creek.
The accident caused the other cars
to pitch and rock SO badly that when
the bridge was reached the baggage car
struck the side timbsrs Of the bridge
and caused the whole structure to give
away, thus preCipitating all the other
cars into the stream below, which was
swollen from recent rains. The front
coach followed the baggage a into
the stream and rested partly upon the
baggage Car, which kept it from sink

Rev. Sam SmalIs Divorced Daughter,
Mrs. ola Small Jackson.

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. 9-Rev. Sam
Snall's divorced daughter, Mrs. Lola
Small Jackson, figured as the bride in
a highly romantic marriage here to-
day. This lady had been spending
some time at Cd Point Comfort, where
she m9t for the first time to day a week
ago Stewart H. Ford, a handsome
young hotel clerk here. The latter fell
desperately in love at once. He made
love to the lady on last Thursday, a few
days after the first meeting. The young
couple were engaged this morning.
They came here and were quietly mar
rled afternoon at the histOr C St. PauI's
Church. The ceremony was performed
by the rector, Rev. DR.. HartIy Car
michael. There were only two wit.
nesses present. The bride was about
IA months ago divorced from her first
husband in Tennessee. This event at
tracted considerable attention at the
time. Mrs. Ford is about %, rather
petite and quite pretty. Toe groom
takes the matter in the most matter of
fact way. He was oppOs. d to long and

HE AIDED THE CUBAN CAUSE.
Capt. Hughes to be Arrested on Charge
of Filibustering.

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 1I-At the in
stanceOf the Spanish representatives
in this city a warrant has been issued
in Wilmington for the arrest of Capt.
II. H. Hughes, commanding the
steamer Lourada, of the Halt Steam
ship Line.
The arrest grows out OF the alleged
fiibustering expedition captured at
PENIS Grove, N. J.. Late in the night,
when the ammunition and men went
to Penn Grove, it is alleged a ship was
to run down the river, load the amnu
milton and take the men on board and
sail away to Cuba. This ship, which
it was claimed at the time was the
Lourada, was to give three whistles as
as a signal. The ship did not appear.
Those who have caused the warrant
to be issued for Capt Hughes, it is said,
claim to have evidence that he was to
load quite a large amount of arms and
ammunition and they can CONNIE CT him
with one flibustering expedition, at
least, if not more.

WORK OF A BULLET.
Exploded a Dynamite Magazine With
Deadly Effect.

DUBUQUE, Iowa, Sept. 9-Edward
LaGshaw, a sub contractor on the gov
eminent work on the Mississippi river,
had 900 pounds of dynamite stored
IN the cellar of a house at Specht's
Ferry, twelve miles north Of here.
Yes erday his son while practicing
with a revolver missed the target, the
bullet entering the cellar and firing the
dynamite. The house was blown to
sp~linters and the following persons
killed:
Edward Latshaw and his wife,
Charity.
Ray Latshaw, twelve years old.
Mat Latshaw, eight years old, all Of
Victory, Wis.
Hans Bjornstadt, of La Crosp, Wis.
The wounded are:
Matt Faber, of Wabasha; may die.
Ed Bench, of Lansing; eye knocked
out, and badly bruised.
Mabel Latshaw, skull fractured.
The dead are terribly mangled. A
four year old baby in the party escaped
unhurt. Glass in the buildings in the
hamlet was all broken and boats on the
opposite side of the river considerably
damaged. A special train from Du-
buQle took physicians to the scene
ana brought the wounded to the hos
pitfalls here.
The force of the explosion tore a hole
fifteen feet deep in the solid rock,
wrecked the building above it and
damaged nearly every other building
in the place. The mother, two daughters
and son were found IN the
wrecked house, the baby girl lying
across her mothers dead and mutilated
body, crying piteOusly for her.
Latshaw's body vas found 200 yards
away, his head partly buried in the
earth. The boy who did the shooting
was thrown over the top of high trees,
falling to the earth a shapeless, un-
recognizable mass. Hans Bjornstadt's
body was found a hundred feet from
the building, every bone broken, and
his body bruised and blackened. The
mothers head was crushed toa jelly,
while her body bore no marks or q

THE COMING CROPS.

Indications point strongly to tobacco
as coming Florida crop for all sections
of the State. Tobacco for cigars will,
doubtless, be the most profitable crop,
but evidence is not wanting to prove
that even the growing of the coarser
grades of tobacco for plug can be made
profitable.
Crops that are grown in a limited area
are the ones that prove the most profit
able, as a rule, The cause for this is
obvious. The product is limited, the

killed to the ground by the February freeze, have
put out shoots from the roots and that these
shoots have borne oranges. The oranges are
