They Prayed For Evil.

Some preachers and members Of the Georgia "Holiness" association, now holding camp meeting near Atlanta, claim that the wreck the other day on the Southern railway, in which peo- pie were killed and about 90 injured, was an answer to their prayers. A few days before, the Knights of Pythias de- cided to hold a picnic where the ''Holi- ness" people were. The latter at once prayed that some obstacle might be thrown in the way of the excursion, and as the wrecked train carried the excur sionists they believe that the wreck was brought about by God in answer to their prayers

NEW MILFORD'S L
When the Ancient Tree Fell, It Wrecked
 a Railroad Train.

For more years than any one can re- member an elm tree of extraordinary size has stood ill the village of New Milford, Pa. It was there when the first settlers arrived, and as the woods were cleared away it was left untouched by the woodman s ax. Its trunk was nearly four feet in diameter, and its branches cast their shade for more than 100 feet around. When the Delaware and Lack awanna railroad was built through New Milford, more than 40 years ago, the track ran close to the old tree, and the station was erected almost iH its shade. Its great height and wide spread of branches offered favorable mark for storm and tempest, but, while other trees were uprooted from time to time, this grand old tree defeS the elements. It seemed as sound as itwas when the pioneers first saw it and was famous landmark.
 One night lately, as the locomotive of 8 west bound freight train was opposite it, the great elm fell and crushed the engine. Not breath of air was stirring at the time. The engineer, Timothy Common, and his firemen were buried in the wreck of the locomotive, and sev- eral freight cars were piled up and min gled with the ruins of tree and engine Both the engineer and fremen were taken from the wreck, and it was found that neither had received as much as . scratch Fred Bell, 6 brakeman, jumped from his car and was badly hurt. There is nothing revealed in the structure of the great elm to indicate why it should have thus fallen without warning. It had broken in two half way up the stem. Only one minute and half be- fore it fell the fast New York express, No. 8, bound east, had dashed by, run ming 40 miles an hour.
 Ut is not pleasant to speculate now what the consequences would have been," says Delaware and Lacka- wanna official, If that tree had fallen a minute and a half sooner. "-New York Sun.

TOM REED AWHEEL.
The Famous Possibility" Has Exciting
 Times Bicycle.

4nB EAnOus 'FossfDll1bY, Has Exciting
 Times Bicycle.
 A poem in white is what Maine's biz congressman, Thomas B. Reed, might fittingly be called when he is dressed in his snow white sweater, all ready for ride on his glittering bicycle. The wheel arrived last week and is beauty. It weighs but 28 pounds and was designed and made especially for MT. Reed. The machine is constructed of the best ma terial obtainable in the market and was made unusually strong, as the presiden- tial possibility, after all his banting, even now tips the scales at 269 pounds.
 The next question was what to wear while riding the bike, and at last, after much pendering, MT. Reed purchased white sweater. It is as white as the driven snow, and it took enough ma terial to make bicycle suit, bloomers and all, for some of the winsome maids here who ride a wheel And it suits Tom to a T, and now he would not part with 1t for any amount of money
 Mir. Reed declares that it is much more difficult to ride wheel than a DQlhiuS DIOnCAO 4Ho llI6b LII lu0 Nc6ht while taking a lesson, the big man came within an ace of indulging in q bath in the briny deep. At Grand Beach there is gradual incline from the sea wall to the waters edge. Mr. Reed was learning to ride and was quite near the water. He was doing remarkably we'll, and the instructor released his hold on Thomas and told him to go it alone No sooner had he done so than the contrary wheel started for the breakers at a 80 clip, with it's rider powerless to stop it. Never before had MT. Reed ridden so far without falling off, and to the on lockers it seemed as though he would certainly go into the surf. He shouted for assistance, and his cousin rescued him just as the wheel was on the edge of the Atlantic. .--Lewiston Journal

THE Pulitzer Publishing Com pany has made an effort to dismiss Col. Charles H. Jones from the edi- torship and management of the St. Louis Post Dispatch The cause of this move lies in the fact that Col. Jones has been conducting the Post Dsspatch as free silver paper against the wishes of the company. It now appears that Col. Jones has contract with Mc. Joseph Pulitzer, the principal stockholder in the corporation, by the terms of which he is to have the management and control of the paper for five years, and Col. Jones has applied for an in- junction to restrain the directors from carrying out their threat that if he did not change his policy they would dismiss him.

More Training Ships Wanted.

It is probable that an effort will be made by the navy department to secure an appropriation for two more training ships for naval cadets. Vessels of the Bancroft build and displacement are of great value in the service aside from their usefulness as floating schools for naval students. It will take probably $500, 900 to build two vessels of about 1,200 tons displacement, equipped for use as training vessels. Constructor Hil- born has recommended that provision for two such ships be made ill the esti- mates, and the secretary of the treasury is expected to add the items to the rec concentrations which he will send to congress. The vessels will not be equipped with machinery, but with the exception of steam power they will be modern ships in all respects. New York Times.

LARGEST DAILY scITY CIRCULATION.
NIGHT SCHOOLS.

AS much as AIn6FlcdHS Hay UOdS of the glorious results produced in the past by our excellent system of free public schools, it must be ad- mitted that they alone are incapable of meeting the requirements of this present busy age. Late statistics show that majority of all boys in attendance upon the day public schools drop out between the ages of twelve and fourteen years. At those ages most boys are put to work and their time occupied from daylight until dark, and, unless there be some night school in their vicinity, few pursue their mental ed ueation further.
 This, in measure, accounts for the great amount of uuskilled labor and idleness in the land. Besides depriving the boy of a just start in life and, through ignorance, limiting the possibility of his attainments, he is thrown upon the labor market of the world, and as the market of un- skilled labor is already over crowded, wages are lowered and idle ness multiplied.
 It should be of great import to the American people, therefore, and especially to cities, where ignorance and poverty usually predominate, that means be provided to rectify this evil. Compulsory education is not in great favor in this country, and the most expedient means ap- pear to be through night schools. These have already been established in many cities with great results, and their increase is as phenomenal as their success. One of the most important factors in the establish ment of night schools is the Young Mems Christian Association. Glasses in as high as seventy-fiee different branches of learning are to be found in some of it's schools, and special instruction is given in indus trial and scientific departments. It is with great pleasure that the GRAPHIC announces an effort will be made to establish one of these needed institutions in connection with our local association. Such an enterprise is geatly needed in this city, and no better place could be found for it than in connection with the Y. M. c. A. Every encourage ment and support should, therefore, be given the Secretary by our citi- zens, and all young men who are unable to attend the day schools should at once enroll their names for this night school. The larger enroll ment the better facilities and more effective work.

CAeNy 0Ommltteu To Jail.
William N. Tolbert, formerly one OF the
agents of the International Migration So
ciety, has been committed to jail by JUS
tice Elsinger on a charge of cheating and
swindling.
Tolbert, it seems. employed woman
named Belle Tompkins at salary of $40
month as clerk in his office at South
Broad lane and East Broad streets. He
was also to pay her board, which amount
ed to $l2 a month. When her month was
up he discharged her, and as she claimed
paid her nothing. She went before JUS
uce Elslnger and had issued a laborer' S
lien and a warrant for cheating and
SWindling. There was nothing in Toll
berts office to levy on under the lien
and he had no personal property which
could be gotten hold Of
Constable Joe Brown arrested Tolbert
who was committed to jail. He admitted
at one time that he had employed the
woman, but another time made the state
ment that he had paid her everything
he owed her She claims he was not an
agent of the migration society
Tolbert was to have had a preliminary
examination yesterday afternoon but at
ter a conference with his counsel Messrs.
Slater & Bayd, he sent Justice EIsinger
a note stating that he would demand In

gives bond he will remain in fail untii
his case has been disposed of by the city
court
Agent w. l.. Sanders of the migration
society said that the society had nothing
whatever to with this scrape into which
Tolbert had gotten himself Tolbert, he
says, was appointed an agent of the So
ciety by himself, but was never authorized
TO employ a clerk. That, he said, was
