Fell From a Bridge,

A man named Tynery, travelling
from Galena TO Colorado, was driving
double team Of horses to a couple Of
farm wagons toward the city from the
east last Thursday, when one of the
wagons fell from the bridge which
spans the East Slough on the Oxford
road and came very nearly drowning
four children. Just as the bridge was
reached the driving lines became en-.
tangled and in attempting to guide
the horses the wagon was pulled over
the edge of the bridge. The wagon
turned half way over and lit bottom
side up, imprisOning four children
at the bottom Of the raging torrent
for several minutes.
The children were riding in the
front wagon and were driving the
horses. The father was in the rear
wagon. When the front wagon. over
turned Mr.. Tynery sprang into tie
creek and by heroic efforts succeeded
in lifting it with its heavy load from
his children, but not until they we're
nearly drowned. He worked with
them for some time before they were
brought back to consciousness.
The bridge where the accident hap
pened is six or eight feet high and is
without sidings. The stream usually
does not contain much water, but at
present is swollen from the heavy
rains.

To Honor Tom Richardson.

The Galveston Tribune of the 10Th
ult., dominates Tom Richardson,
formerly Of this city, as a candidate
for a place on the proposed commission
from the United States to the Paris
International exposition in 1900.
President Mckinley has recommended
and a bill has already been intro
duCed in the senate providing for
commission with an appropriation of
$4,000 to collect, prepare and make
an exhibit in Paris of the resources,
the immense opportunities for capital
and the industries Of this country.
Such an exhibit would be Of inestim-
able value to the United States, and
no man from the western half of This
country could more lttingly represent
the push, energy and enterprise Of
the people than our own Tom Rich
ardson. He has been identified for
years with the best business interests
OF the west, and is peculiarly fitted
for prominent place on the commits
sion. Wellington people generally, as
well as the people Of the entire west
and south, will heartily endorse his
candidacy for this place Of honor.
In eulOgizing Mr.. Richardson's I'm.
firing work in behalf of the advance
ment of the great west, the Tribune
says: He organized the Western
congress, the Trans-MiSsissippi cong
ress, the Western states conference
and the deep water utilization COM
mittee. His life has been given to
the study Of western commerce and
no man OF the times has broader or
more intelligent comprehension of
the subject. He has labored for
many years in the particular field of
promoting traffic between the west
and Europe through Gulf ports and
what he has accomplished in these
respects is a familiar story daily re-
peated in the grain, Spelter, cattle
and other exports through Galveston
and New Orleans, in the growing i'm
RNlVo VulOuSu UuO SAINT CudUuelS,
and best Of all in the increased prices
for western farm products and the
decreased rates on commodities of
western consumption.
I'm all this grand movement, which
is now fairly begun, he has been a
foremost figure and in much of it his
genius for organization and his init.
mate acquaintance with the subject
matter have been the chief factors.
His indefatigable energy, his quick
telligence and his p ersonal popular
lty throughout the west, together
with his experience for several years,
peculiarly fit him for the position, and
there is not doubt that if the west
and south will take up the matter
promptly he can be so identified with
the movement as tomake his appoint.

dence which goes to prove beyond a
doubt that Bill and Sam Smith are
the identical fellows who held up the
Santa Fe station agent at Oxford re-
Gently and robbed Agent Claiborne,
the Frisco agent at Arkansas City a
few nights later. These fellows have
accOmpliCes living in the vicinity of
Geuda Springs, and no stone will be
left unturned by the sheriff to ferret
them out and have them punished to
the full extent OF the law.
The Smith boys were seen Saturday
morning about daylight ten miles east
OF Arkansas City going east. Their
household goods were moved out OF
their dwelling near Geuda Springs re-
emily and they have probably decided
to seek a colder climate. Sheriff Hes.
kett and Deputy Sheriff Shaver
started out after them last Wednes-
day afternoon and reached the home
of Billy Johnson that night. Think.
ing that the deSperadOes would come
home during the storm they decided
to remain over night in the vicinity
and catch them there the next morn
ing. They proceeded to the Smith
place early the next morning with
three assistants, but failed to find
their men. Sheriff Heskett returned
and Mr.. Shaver, with squad has
been on their track until Saturday
when the chase was given up. The
entire southern part Of the county
was secured for them and the Smith
residence was continually guarded,
but the boys were too sharp to return,
They were probably in hiding in Ar.
kansas City or vicinity.

ABOUT THE RIVER

Several river men spoken to yester-
day agree with Capt. Inglebright that
the depth of water above and below
the city is not as small this year as
it has been in some past seasons, but
they agree that the water has never
been so low at the wharf and along
the Island generally as now. and ac-
count for this by the dredging out of
the bar at the mouth of Wheeling
creek, about fifteen months ago, which
had a tendency to reduce the depth of
the river from the creek well up to-
wards the north end of the Island. It
is certain that never before was so
much sand exposed along the wharf,
outside the pavement, and the bars
along the east side of the Island are
also larger that in any recent year
Yesterday two big stones for the
extension of the river marks were
dumped at the wharf They will
probably be placed in position Monday

After working all night Friday night
and up until afternoon yesterday,
counsel for defendants in the indict-
ments returned by the last grand jury
presented the seven thousand Eve hum
dred pleas in abatement in the Grim
inal Court, Judge Hugus, yesterday
morning. That is to say, they pre-
sented as many as had been signed,
and continued to hand them in until
the whole batch was ready. Clerk
Henning and his deputies at once be-
gan the work of certifying them, and
this was still in progress late in the
afternoon, the job being an enormous
one.
When Court was opened in the
morning, Mr. howard called the atten-
ton Of Judge Hugus to the case of
Andrew Mckinley, who is down on the
records of the Court as having plead
guilty to seven indictments out of
seventeen found, stated that Mr. Nc
Ginley had called upon him Friday
evening, stated he had never plead
guilty to anything, but wanted to file
pleas in abatement, that such pleas
had been prepared and signed. and that
they were now ready for presentment
to the Court. The claim of the repre-
sentatives of the State was that such
a plea had been made. The Court said
the issue thus raised was a serious one,
and asked that Mr.. Mckinley submit
an affidavit, which will be done within
the next day or two.
The State then demurred to the
pleas, and the argument was opened
by Prosecuting Attorney Meyers for
the State He did not touch upon the
question of the truth of the matters
alleged in the pleas, which are to be
thus taken for admitted by the State,
but confined himself to a discussion of
the pleas themselves, upon the ground
that they did not comply with the
statutes and were defective. Mr.. Mey-
ers spoke about two hours, when Court
adjourned until half-past two o'clock.
In the afternoon Mr.. S. G. Smith
opened for the defense, and spoke I'M
til about four O'Clock, when further dis
cussion was adjourned until Wednes
day morning. At that time Mr.. How
ard will close the case for the defense,
and will be followed by General Alfred.

The discussion yesterday was al
most entirely technical, and possessed
little. interest for the layman. Quite
number of attorneys were attracted

siodel Brick Paving at Once.
Mr.. ]. T. Koen, of Warrington, was
in the city yesterday on business con-
nected with the proposed street i'm
provements in that town. The town
authorities have determined to put
down a square or two of brick pave
ment this fall, and propose that the
job shall be model one in all re-
spects, with a first class foundation
under the bricks. Specifications have
been prepared with this idea in view,
and the bids Will be opened Tuesday
evening next. Next year it is pro-
posed to pave most of the main streets
and to keep up the work until the en-
tire town has good streets.
A number of very substantial real
estate improvements have lately been
made in Warrington, and an electric
light plant is now going up. to be
completed in about sixty days. The
oil field situation is very encouraging,
and the town is prosperous in every
way.

MILL FOR NEGROES.
Colored Labor to Be Employed Ex-

Columbia, S. c., October ia con-
tract to furnish machinery for a 10000
spindle cotton mill and $50 looms. in
which no white person will be permitted
to work except in the capacity of in
structor or foreman, has Just been sign
ed.
The idea of having a cotton mill op-
Grated exclusively by colored labor or
iginated with W. S. Monteith, q white
lawyer of this city. 1t took well with
the leading c0lored people of the city,
and Mr.. Monteith, with his brother. son
and nephew as corporators. obtained a
commission for the Elmwood Manufact-
uring Company from the Secretary of
State.
The capital stock of 100000 is to be
paid in installments. OF this amount
$50 shares of 500 each have been sub
scribed for by Columbia negroes.
The mill, says Mr. Monteith. will en-
ploy soc hands, running day and night
forces. Under the bylaws it is provid-
ed that no white person shall be en-
ployed who cannot show that he has
been resident of Columbia for at least
twelve months prior to his application.
The colored stockholders say they wish
the colored people of Columbia 10 ben
eft by their enterprise and that there
are enough unemployed here to run the
mill without bringing in others.
The experiment will be watched with
no little concern. Negroes look upon ii
as distinct advantage in their position
whites of the mill operative class view
it with apprehension, mill men and
manufacturers see in it a training
school for cheaper labor. while the gen.
eral public believes that in the future
discord will result.
