civil war. 4 colonel in an Ohio regi-
ment was in command Of a district of
North Alabama. within whose lines the
family of a confederate officer resided.
sometimes the bold confederate would
slip through the lines, undiscovered, and
visit his family. On one occasion he
was discovered by some one more de-
voted to the union than his personal
welfare Information was given TO the
colonel commanding the district, who
took half-dozen of his men, and under
cover Of night went to the house TO cap
ture his confederate foeman. Arriving
at the house, he rushed in the door,
pistol in hand, and found the confed-
crate soldier in the midst of his family,
his pistol and belt lying upon the bu-
reau and within reach of his daughter,
a beautiful girl of IS summers. In an
instant she grasped her fathers pistol

SON The colonel sprang forward and
seized the pistol in her hand TO disarm
her. Not being a Spaniard, it never
entered his mind TO shoot her. In the
struggle her pistol fred, and she was
shot through the hand, but her father
succeeded in making his escape. The
gallant officer returned IN few days
TO see about that wounded hand. He
came again to express his profound re-
grets for that wound, and again and
again TO hope for its early recovery.
He did not stop coming till he carried
that hand OF with him, clasped in his.

THE CORN TRAIN.
ARGoNIA. Kans., June 80, 18E

ARG0NIA, Hans, June 90, 1890.
HON. e.. z. SCOTT, lola, Kansas:
Dear Sir-I have an apology to offer
you and your people in reference to
going to New York with the McKin-
ley corn train, but owing to my losing
three cars by fire and only eight coun-
ties responding with their money,
leaving twenty-eight not paying any
thing, and other matters that came
up in st. Louis relative to taking the
band, and getting the eastern roads
TO haul it, found it was impossible
to take the train through, for which l
was certainly very sorry, 1 was not
able TO carry out the proposition made
TO you and your people. After figur-
ing nay expenses in getting up the
train and selling the corn, it shows a
loss TO me of S20I9. 40. This train was
a success az an advertisement of Kan
sas and her political sentiment, but
it was a failure for me. In

Is Received with Cheers.
When Senator Mills delivered his
great speech on Cuba in the senate the
other day, a speech described by that
competent critic, Senator Morgan, of
Alabama, as majestic and splendid and
brilliant oratOry," he related an Incl
dent that called cheers from the gal
leries and aroused deep interest on the
floor of the senate. Mr.. Mills was de-
scribing the cruelty of the Spaniards.
Then he drew this contrast:

Raleigh. N. c., Dec. 3O.--An incoming
freight train on the Seaboard
Air Line was wrecked two
miles west of here this morning at
1870 o'clock. Four tramps had been put
of there yesterday and it is believed they
removed a rail. The engine and ten cars
went over a SO-foot embankment. The
engine was overturned and Fireman Lewis
OVERLY (colored), was caught beneath the
wreck and scalded and burned to death.
Engineer John Robinson escaped with a
fracture of two ribs. A tramp Is reported
to have said this morning that the matter
was not yet ended. The wrecked train
was running on the schedule of the north
bound vestibuled train, and 1t is believed
that 1t was the purpose of the tramps to
wreck the latter.
There is positive evidence that a rail
was removed. The spikes and hsh-plates
taken from it have been founl near the
wreck, and the spikes had been freshly
pulled. An iron crowbar has also been
found concealed among the weeds. The
bar is the property of the Southern rail-
way and had been stolen. Tracks of two
men have been found leading from the
point where the, rail was re-
moved. Supt. Moncure says there
is no doubt that an at
tempt was made to wreck the vestibuled
train. Railway officials deny that four
tramps were put off a train yesterday at
the place where the wreck occurred. 1t is
learned that two other attempts at wreck
ing by placing obstacles on the track have
been made within three miles Of Raleigh
within the past ten days.
Engineer Robertson says that one sec
ond before reaching the misplaced rail, he
saw something was wrong. He remem-
bers his engine jumping. the rails. The
Seaboard's tracks parallel those of the
Southern railway and the former has
used the latter's track to-day between
Raleigh and Cary. Some of the wrecked
cars were thrown on the Southern s
tracks.
Bloodhounds arrived late this afternoon
from the penitentiary farms near Weldon,
and were Immediately put on the trail.
They went in a portherly direction.
