Il was publicly talked all over Decatur
and Ripley counties for some time before the
Nea Era sent a reporter to Pierccville to
fully investigate the Tucker matter. The
fuckers are prominent people and are all
well-to-do farmers. The Rev. William
Tucker subject of all the talk, was pleased
to allow US an interview. Mr.. Tucker
looked well and healthy, although he is
seventy years old, and forty years ago
he began preaching in the faith of the Free
Baptists. This is his story as he told the
reporter:
"I was born and reared on a farm and be-
gan preaching ct an early age / was al
ways subject to rheumatism, even when
quite young. Pains, sharp and acute, would
shoot across my body, causing me much suf-
fering. The doctors pronounced it then q
spinal disease. The pains kept getting worse
all the time from day to day as the years
rolled round and experienced many years
suffering.
Although l much regretted to, was
compelled to retire altogether from my
work in the religious cause The pains
would first start from my spine and limbs
but afterward begun shooting from all parts
of the body and It seemed as though thous-
and knives were sticking me. After these
pains would first come on, my entire body
would suddenly grow cold, would be numb
all over and all my muscles would be asleep.

Railroad Notes

| The Mexican Central railroad has
placed an order for 600 freight cars with
| the Michigan-Peninsular Car company,
| Detroit.
| The Pullman company is building for
the Chesapeake and Ohio two 60-foot
combination baggage and smoking cars.
These cars are to be vestibuled.
Richard Stevenson, assistant manager
of purchases and supplies of the South
ern Pacific, has arrived in Los Angeles
and will remain several weeks for his
health.
The Illinois Central is added to the
long list of companies that have dis
carded the pay car and substituted
checks sent by train mail for distribution
by local officers.
E. D. Kenna, general solicitor for the
Atchison. Topeka and Santa Fe railroad,
with headquarters in Chicago, arrived
in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon for
a stay of several days.
The Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern
had adopted new specifications for sec
ton houses. These structures are now
being built with slate roofs and cost
about s65 apiece. The slate roof is found
to be a preventive of fire from sparks.
The first train on the Manhattan ele-
waited road, New York city, to be
equipped with the PiVtsch light was run
on March 27 and gave perfect satisfac-
tion. A total of 500 cars of this system
will be equipped with this light by April
| 10.
| 1t is reported that the Juniata shops
of the Pennsylvania road have received
orders to build ten mogul engines of the
class FL type. These engines will have
driving wheels SO inches in diameter,
and will weigh in working order about
| 10000 pounds.
Last evening a report was received
from San Pedro to the effect that c. P.
Huntington had arrived on a special
train at 4:20 p. m, made a hasty visit
of inspection on the bluffs overlooking
the harbor, and then departed. Inquiry
at the main office of the Southern Pacific
revealed the fact that Mr.. Huntington
was yesterday in San Francisco, and the
report originated probably from the hur-
ried visit which the traffic officials paid
San Pedro during yesterday afternoon.
The adoption of the tonnage system
for freight trains on the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern has resulted in quite
a saving in the cost of transportation.
General Superintendent Rawn states
that locomotives, under this system are
pulling from two to seven more loaded
cars per train than ever before A very
simple but comprehensive set of blanks
has been furnished the yard masters,
and in making up the trains each loco
motive is given the number of tons
which it has been demonstrated by ex-
perience it is able to haul. This system
has also resulted in fewer complaints of
locomotives being stalled with their
trains on grades.

made by the rabbi. for 1t, to great ex-
tent, not only moulds, but creates, public
opinion. The press influences our courts,
our legislatures, our government. AT
times It abuses its power. as in past
times the church did, when 1t controlled
the action of the great mass of the peo-
pie. Having such widespread influence,
it should be a power for good and in its
views instruct and elevate.
Next week will be the week of the
Passover. Services will be held at p. m
Friday and also upon Saturday. At the
latter date the subject of the discourse
will be. "The Fourfold Message Of Re-
demption."
The musical program last evening con-
sisted of the regular eight numbers of
the Hebrew ritual and solos by Mrs.
Josefa Tolhurst and Mr.. Templer-Allen.
Mrs. Tolhurst sang Lead Me, oh
Father" by Mascheroni, and Lord God
Almighty" was the baritone solo.

TWO MIRACULOUS ESCAPES
Knocked Down and Run Over by a
Fire Engine

In going to the fire on San Julian street
yesterday evening engine No. s of the
Hill street fire department collided with
a vehicle on San Pedro street between
Eighth and Ninth. and the occupant.
Mrs. Julia Rohen, of No. 2126 Bay street,
was seriously injured. She was throw n
out and the engine, which weighs $500
pounds passed over the lower portion of
her body.
She was conveyed to her home, where
Dr. j. l.. Rodgers attended her. The
latter states that it is impossible to tell
just how serious her injuries are, as she
complains of internal pains. The cart
which Mrs. Rohen occupied was COM
pletely demolished. and it seems a mira
Gle that she was not instantly killed The
same engine, just few minutes before,
on the same street, between Seventh AMI
Eighth, knocked down and ran over E.
Walker, a colored tailor. The wheels
passed over his limbs just below the
knees, and he was also badly bruised
about the head and shoulders. Walker
was taken to the receiving hospital for
treatment. Several parties who witness
ed both accidents declare that the driver
of the engine was entirely blameless in
both cases.

THE QUEENS SUMMONS

posed to issue bonds bearing that rate
and payable in forty years. This ques-
ton has been agitated for some years,
but it was only at the last Legislature
that the necessary legislation was enact
ed. AS the refunding will save the city
about $500 a month in interest, and also
do away with the necessity for excessive
tax levies for the next ten years, as
would have been the case otherwise, the
refunding bonds will doubtless carry by
a practically unanimous vote.
