A Dastardlx Attempt.

From the Ozark Banner.
A dastardly attempt was made to
wreck the Central train at the trestle
where the Alabama Midland road cross
es the Central road, just above Ozark, on
wednesday morning. Two green poles,
near each end of the trestle, were placed
on the track in such a position that
either would have caused fatal wreck.
Mr.. Charlie Stephenson, our informant,
and Mr.. Crawford, of Dothan, who hap
pened to pass, saw the poles and re-
moved them But for this, fatal wreck
might have occurred.

WONDERFUL ECONOMY.
How Some People Think They Cut Down
EXPENSES.

How Some People Think They Cut Down
Expenses.
We heard gentleman remark the
other day that when hard times struck
the average citizen the first thing he did
was to stop his paper; the next to take
his children from school, and the next
to quit paving the preacher, and thus
imagine that he was practlcing economy;
and the gentleman told the truth. Great
economy, isn't it? Kill off the preacher,
the teacher and the newspaper--the three
great factors in the intellectual and
moral community, and then imagine
that such was economy! Kill off the
preacher and let your children grow up
moral savages; kill off the teacher aud
raise your offSprings toIbe hewerS OF
wood and drawers of water for the chill
dren of those who have got more sense;
kill off your newspaper and see your
town go down, business grow stagnant,
and those children whom you have de-
creed to be intellectual and moral dwarfs
LOST around for want of employment.
This is wonderful economy. -Albany

DANCING IN CHURCH.
Rev. j. w. Petrie Approves of 1t and Had
n Stage Built.

There is trouble in the Episcopal
church of Our Savior on Fullerton
avenue, Chicago. The Rev. j. Petrie,
rector for twenty five years, allows dane
ing in the church, and under the chan
eel are regular stage dressing rooms.
The stage was built under his personal
supervision.
''Of course, there was opposition to
scenery and real footlights," said DR..
Petrie, ''but just told the young people
to come and enjoy themselves. mot only
that, but [ allow them to hold dances
here, and [ remain all the evening until
the last couple goes home. Some of my
people came to me and declared that
there should be no dancing. | told them
that as long as they allowed dancing in
their homes 1 would permit it in the
church. Some of them gDt angry and
left the church, but l could not help

HANSON SUES BACON.
A Sensational Action Begun in Macon. Out
come of an Old Feud.

come of an Old Feud.
MACON, GA, March 27.- A sensation
al suit was tiled in the superior court
here this afternoon by Major J. F. Han
son against United States Senator Bacon
to collect $14 900. The suit grows out of
the signing of the bond of j. S. McTighe
& Co., in the famous Georgia Southern
litigation.
Hanson claims that Bacon used per-
sonal friendship to induce him to sign
the bond, and at the same time insured
him against risk, agreeing to be person
sonally responsible to Hanson.
Hanson had to pay out $4,000, his
portion of the bond, and Bacon refused
to protect lin.
Bitter feeling has existed for the past
three years, and this is the climax.

FOUND "A MOUNTAIN OF Go1D.
village of Blacks Slaughtered by Wealth.
CraZed Australians

'Haseo Oh "Iacks Slaughtered by Wealth
Crazed Australians.
An astonishing and almost incredible
story of tragedy comes by mail from the
gold fields of Australia. Several ring.
leaders in the horrible crime are under
arrest.
Fabulous finds have lately been re-
ported from Ninety-Mile Point, nuggets
OF fifty and 100 ounces of pure gold being
picked up on the surface of the ground
These stories made men mad with lust
for gain, and prospectors in the race for
wealth pushed on for hundreds of miles
In the wilderness, far beyond where
white men had never been. They had
scarcely enough food and water to keep
them alive. They were brought back,
raging with fever and placed in the Cool
gardie hospital, already overcrowded
with dying miners.
The fate of these desperate men did
not deter eight new arrivals from form
ing syndicate to push on. With heavy
packs of provisions, water and rifles,
they started from Ninety-Mile Point, the
extreme limit of Coolgardie, to prospect
in the interior. They started Dec. /,
and, as nothing had been heard Of them,
it was supposed they had met death.
On Jan. q, however, Dan Robertson,
one of the syndicate, returned from his
camp, 120 miles from Coolgardie, and
reported that the party found mountain
of gold. 1t is solid hill of quartz 70
feet high, $50 feet wide at the base and
Is at the summit, full. of gold.
After discovering the mountain the
party, returning to the camp. found that
band of blacks had stolen all of their
provisions. The syndicate pursued the
blacks to their village and butchered the
entire encampment, shooting the men
and Draining the women and children.
The other murderers have been arrested.

CLUBS and DIS7ILLERs
Probable That Excise Law Will
Be Amended to Include Them.
INEQUALITY POINTED OUT
Excise Board VIII Hold Night Ses-
sions A fter November 1 TO Con-
slider Applications for License.
Farmers May Employ Clerks at
the Markets.

The excise board has received for the
month of October a total of ESQ applica-
tions for retail liquor license. This is
about equal TO the number filed for the
same period last year. The applicants
for wholesale license to date number SO.
Each of the applications Will receive con-
sideration in turn, according to the number
given Ii upon the date of its receipt by the
clerk.
The board expects to hold night sessions,
beginning with November 1, and the papers
will be passed upon as rapidly as possible.
In all cases where objections worthy of the
boards consideration are filed the papers
will be held. as usual, and an investigation
made of all charges.
CONTESTS WILL BE FEW.
There is a prospect that but few con-
tests will be made. The rigid adherence to
the law and the regulations now being en-
joined by the board will have the effect
of preventing those not qualified, or against
whom legal objection can be urged, from
filing application.
There will probably be but small dimi-
mutton, IL any, in the number OF saloons.
There are those who will fail to obtain
removals, but these will be made up in
the total by the number of new applicants.
1t is among the strong probabilities that
w
next Congress TO carry out the suggestions
of the assessor respecting clubs and agents
of brewers and distillers. An amendment
bringing these classes within the license
law will Doubtless be presented.
The Commissioners decided yesterdayupon
an application made through S. c. Mills
that farmers, truckers, and fruit venders
attending the markets may employ persons
to aid them in the sales of their own prod
ucts, provided the employees are interested
as agents or salesmen only. In such cases
the parties assisting are permitted to per-
form such duties as may be prescribed by
the principals. This decision is based upon
an opinion rendered by the attorney.
GUARDS FOR THE MONUMENT.
Six additional privates have been ap-
pointed on the police force for duty at the
Washington Monument. The appointees
are F. NJ. Stronherger, +. C. Groves, c. I.
Torrey, James c. Thomas, James b. Evans,
and c. b. F. Reintzel.
Steam engineers license of the second
class was granted yesterday TO Peter Peter
sen and julius Eisenbeiss, respectively.
The proprietor of the Harrison Flats, at
the corner of Third and G streets, has made
application TO the excise board for a bar
license. under the clause of the law that
applies to hotels. The issuance OF the
license is being contested upon the grounds
that the applicant has not secured ma jor-
ity of the adjacent residents TO indorse him.
The case has been set for a hearing on
Monday xt.

WILL DISCUSS RAILROADS
Board of Trade to Hold an Import
ant Meeting on Friday.
Grade Crossings, Terminals, Trans
portatiOn and Kindred Subjects
TO Be nsidered.

Invitations were received yesterday by
its members 10 attend a meeting of the
Board OF Trade, to be held on Friday
evening at Willard Hall. The object OF
the meeting, as stated in the call, is to
consider the subject OF steam railroads,
the necessity for increased freight and
terminal facilities in order 10 keep pace
with tue growth and progress of the city
and the matter of grade crossings"
Addresses Will be delivered by Mr..
Frank Hume, the chairman of the railroad
committee, and other competent speakers
The position of the Board OF Trade on
these matters, as expressed by tue presi-
dent, is as follows:
First. The speedy elevation or de-
preston OF steam railroad tracks within
the District of Columbia to a safe dis
tance above or below the grades of the
streets and thoroughiares along which
they pass.
Second. The discontinuance and refusal
OF AL such privileges as tend 10 create and
permit nonopolies in steam railway tran
sit and traffic.
Third. The entrance into the District
of Columbia Of ali legitimate railway en-
terprises under conditions positive of
common benefits, burdens and obliga-
tions.
Fourth. The encouragement by meal ms OF
existing aud increasing railway facilities
of manufactures within the District OF
Columbia
Fifth. The location Of a union passenger
depot.
The discussion will not unlikely take
In the Baltimore and Ohio passenger sta
ton, OF which President Warner said in
his report on the subject:
Our railroads should be compelled to
provide proper terminal facilities. both
for freight and passengers. The Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Company has a station
which is constant advertisement of a
want of enterprise on the part of the cor
poration, ii is a positive disgrace to
the Capital OF the nation.
''Its facilities are an annoyance to the
travelling public, W no are compelled TO pa
troniZe it Such a condition of things
would not be tolerated in any other city,
where corporations can be speedily reached
by municipal legislation
The matter of grade cros sings on the
Baltimore and Ohio and other railroads
i'll be dis cussed. and il S not improbable
that the ques tion of proper tagging of
cross sings in The city " here electric lines
and other street railroads intersect viii
also be handled. The necessity for this has
recently been referred to by The Times
" it'll specific cases on which suggestion
to-the companies should be made
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad eros sings
are matter Of much intercs I to the North
east citizens and the citizens OF South
Washington W i'll be much interested in the
dis cussion OF the crossings in their section
of the city.
The coming meeting will be one OF great
local interest and il is expected that the
board Will pais Some storng resolutions.
1t il anticipated that the meeting will be
largely attended.

POLICEMEN DIsSA TISFIED.
Think Judge KimbaIl Did Wrong In
Filming Officer Mcdonald.

There is much issatisfaction in the
police department at the action of Judge
Kimball in filming Policeman Mcdonald,
of the Sixth precinct, yesterday on the
charge of assauitiDg Richard CoDtee, col
ored, who had been arrested by the officer
for disorderly conduct in Washingt on street.
1t was shown that Contee attempted to
bite the officer, after resisting arrest,
and tried to trip Mcdonald and throw him
to the pavement.
The thirteen witnesses against the po-
liceman We're all colored residents OF Wash
ingtoD street and neighbors of the ac-
cuSed. Contee is known as a police
killer" and has been arrested before.
Arrests in the above street have been diff
ficult, owing 10 the fact that the prison.
ers can always secure large number of
witnesses, while the policeman often has
to depend solely upon his own individual
test imony.
The man who swore out the warrant
against the policeman, James E. Williams,
has police record. He was arrested
February 2, 1895, for maintaining a
gambling resort. The fact that Contee
was sent TO the workhouse Tor the offense
for which Patrolnian Mcdonald arrested
him is, the police say, sufficient evidence
that he was struck slight blow justi-
fiably by the officer. His wound was so
slight that it did not require dressing at
the hands of a surgeon.
