REMARKABLE ACCIDENT.
Train Saved by One Chance in Ter
Million.

Train Saved by One Chance in Ten
Million.
The accidents that astonish railroad
men are those that happen without
hurting anybody. Such a mishap oc-
CURED to the Lake Shore flyer, from
Cleveland, coming into Chicago last Sat
urday morning, says the Chicago Trib-
une. \ steel tire slipped from one of
the driving wheels of the engine with
the train going at full speed. This was
extraordinary. But that it should slip
off the wheel, over the connecting rod.
and fall clear of the track, instead of
Wrecking the train, was simply miracu-
lous.
The driving wheel revolves, say, four
times every second, covering that same
second so feet of the rail. Fracture the
tire with it's deep inner flange, made to
keep it on the rail, and try, with that
big connecting rod rising and falling
two feet every quarter of u second, and
the broken tire rolling so feet every
second, 10 make the tire fall off the
wheel and over the connecting rod so
it shall drop clear of the wheel. the rod,
the rail and the train.
This could not happen once in 10000
coo times. Yet, on last Saturday morn
ing, on the Lake Shore flyer coming into
Chicago, it did that very thing, and the
passengers, instead OF being smashed up
in wreck, marvelcd over the remark
! able occurrence.

KILL WOLVES BY lNoCuLArIoN.
Novel Scheme TO RID stock Ranges of
DcntrucIive urutcA.

One of the most remarkable methods
for the protection of range stock or
the determination of the wolf and coy
ote tribe is the discovery, after
months experimenting by Emil Streitz,
young man at Casper, Wyo. Without
making his business known, Stret2
fitted himself out with a camping equip
age and provisions and quietly drove
away. Later he returned, and to n
friend told his story, and said he had
what he believed to be the greatest
boon 10 flockmhsters and other stock
owners ever known.
Streitz exhibited small vial con-
tanning yellowish brown liquid, which
he claimed to be his secret. lie said
he could kill every wolf and coyote in
the state with the liquid. His mode of
determination is to trap wolf or coyote
alive and inject three drops of the poi
sonous fluid beneath the skin. This
operation he repeats three times in
- hours and then releases the animal,
green-eyed, with dilated pupils, ,frothing
at the mouth and raving mad. 1t lives
from 80 to 40 hours after being lber-
ated, but, like a dog with hydrophobia,
it bites everything it meets and every
other wolf bitten becomes inoculated,
and in this way the poison spreads and
death follows at a rapid rate.
The Otto Courier and other Big Horn
basin papers have published reports
brought in from the range of the death
rate among the coyotes being enor
nous from a new disease never before
heard Of. When showed the paper,
Streitz said it was his mad death"
wiping out the tribe
The Stoclmen's association will make
a satisfactory contract with the invent
or if he can give assurance that the
inoculated wolves will not bite the cat
tie and devastate the range with hy-
drophobia.

NEW CITRUS FRUIT DISEASE.
California Grange Men Have Suffered
Serious Loss from 1t.

California Grange iIen Have Suffered
Serious Loss from 1t.
Orange growers of California are be-
coming alarmed at the reports OF the
rapid spread of a new citrus fruit
disease. 1t has already caused serious
loss to the orange men. Manager
Chanfblin, of the fruit exchange, at
first thought that it had been noticed
only in a few shipments, but inquiry
shows that several carloads have been
sold at a loss as result of the disease.
1t does not show itself until the fruit
has been packed for some time, so that
the shipments may leave here looking
well and arrive in an unmarketable
condition. One firm shipping fruit east
is reported to have lost Is carloads.
It's cause is unknown, and no remedy
has been suggested. Specimens have
been sent to the University of Califor-
MIA for investigation. The disease ap-
pears at the "naval" part of an orange
in the form of black spot, and when
the orange is peeled the mold is found
to extend well into the orange and the
flavor is ruined. 1t also attacks lemons.

A HAUNTED TREE.

BHey StTNctN IL.
Last fall a party of coon hunters from
this city were in the woods in this vicn-
itv and the dogs hunted splendidly un-
til they struck this old tree, says the
Danyfllc Ky) Advocate. There they
tucked their tails between their legs
and simply flew. They whined and
raye other evidences of fear and could
not be coaXed into hunting any more
that night. Finally the hunters them
selves became scared One Of them de-
clarcd he heard the sound of d voice as
if from some soul in deep distress. This
settled it. Every man in the crowd
suddenly remembered that he had busi-
ness in town and downward the whole
layout proceeded without further par
lrying or loss of time. The nest day
an old gentleman residing in Danville
was told of the occurrence and he re-
called the fact that he had been one of
the party which had II similar expert
encc near this old tree three years ago
and he said that the spot had been
haunted for many years. long time
ago an old gentleman by the name OF
Louis Strcat was murdered for his
money and the murderer had dragged
the body to the foot of this tree and
covered it with dry leaves. The muir
derer was never punished by law A
young man named Henderson was ar
rested charged with the crime and at
his examining trial was liberated on
$1,000 bail. lie jumped his bond and
disappeared some time afterward.

REFORMS IN IMMIGRATION.

Our folks are getting very particular
about immigrants, says the Brooklyn
Standardization. Two young German
women, OF good character, highly educat-
ed. have arrived and sought an able Uncle
who is well-to-do. They want to make
a living as teachers, and have the quail
flcation Of speaking good English. There
are two things the matter with them
They are without a liberal supply Of
money, and they have "the fatal gift of
beauty" Their uncle says they are too
pretty to be allowed to remain, for he
cannot guarantee that they will not be-
come a public charge. Perahps there
ought to be a fund given by some benev-
olent capitalist to prevent pretty girls
from being shipped back to Europe. There
Is another case Of restriction. group
Of Turks have arrived on this edge Of
the continent, and they went so far as
to say they believed in the Koran. They
we're AT the time cross-examined as to
their religious views, to see whether they
were proper people to belong to our en-
Iightened society and so forth. This Is not
commended by the constitution Of the
United States. The intellectual activities
developed are an evolution Of liberal
construction OF the bylaws. The Turks
are under grave suspicion Of liability to
indulge IN polygamy--as the Koran sane
