HE DREW THE LINE.
A Young Mans Interesting Courtship
With Southern Girl.

While some of the members of the
local bar were entertaining an attor-
ney from North Carolina, he told this
among a good many other professional
experiences:
Though our mountain people are not
educated, no Yankee can beat them in
a dicker or go after a dollar with great
er avidity. A rich young fellow from
our place went up among them for a
time to take on some health and while
there paid more attention than he re-
ally meant to one of the few beauties
that live there. She was a creature
of magnificent proportions, naturally
brilliant, and as relentless of purpose
as any moonshiner that ever went af-
ter revenue officer. She sought to
recover $4,000 damages for breach of
promise, and I had the young mans
case.
''On the trial the girl made star
witness. When 1 asked her point blank
if he had ever proposed to her, she re-
piled that he had not, in so many
words, but his every action, look. even
his tones, was a proposal. She adj
mitted that she had not gone into a
decline because of his Inconsistency, but
graphically pictured months of agony,
unrequited longing and wounded pride.
1t looked bad for us.
cat this stage of the case a lank six
footer from the mountains came UP to
me and whispered that he wanted to
be called as my first witness. He stern
ly declined to answer questions till on
the stand, but reckoned that his word
was good that he would pull the young
fellow through.
"All I ever asked him was his name,
and you couldn't have stopped him
with a gun. He was the girls husband.
He had married her week after the
young. man left the mountains. He
had consented to her bringing the suit
in her maiden name, and saying moth
ing about her being a wife, But if it's
so,' he roared. that's she's been a
mournin' an a-pinin' an a-dyin' afteh

THE girl rushed to his arms. She
sobbed that she never loved another.

HOME REMEDIES FAIL.
And the Victim Threatens an Appeal
to the Divorce Court.

Mr.. Wadsworth of Washington Boule-
ward came home the other evening and
said he believed his throat was sore
What you want to do is to drink
some hot water said Mrs. Wadsworth
It's the best thing in the world
Mr. Wadsworth suggested that the
soreness might disappear of it's own
accord, but his wife insisted that it
would be better to take precautions. So
she went and brought him a glass of
hot water. He took sip at it and said:
Gee but that's hot. Let it cool a lit
tle."
Nonsense" replied Mrs. Wadsworth.
eff you let it get cool it won't do you
any good"
So, Mr.. Wadsworth resolutely drank
the glassful of hot water
The next morning when his wife in
quired about his throat he told her that
it felt sorer than ever. So she gave him
another glass of hot water, and told
him the only way to cure himself was to
keep up the treatment right along.
She gave him hot water on the second
evening, and on the morning thereafter.
But by this time his throat was so sore
that he resolved to abandon home treat
ment and go to a physician. He went to
see the physician, and when he returned
home that evening Mrs. Wadsworth
was waiting to meet him..
Did you go to see the doctor?" she
asked.
Yes, went to see the DOCTOR" he re-
torted rather sharply.
WAS there anything the matter with
your throat?'
WAS there? / should say So"

He said I had been scalded. Next

edes on me I'll apply for a divorce

A NEW YORK HORROR
TRAIN PLUNGES INTO THE
HUDSON RIVER.
Twenty-Eight Persons Reported to
Have Lost Their Lives-Retaining
Wall Along the River Undermined
by High Water-Other News Items
Horror on the Hudson.


The Buffalo and New York special, No.
46, on the New York Central and Hudson
River Railroad, due to arrive in New York
at 1880 o'clock Sunday morning, was
thrown from the track into the Hudson
River one and half miles below Garri-
sons station. Twenty-eight lives were
lost. The retaining wall along the river
had been undermined by high water in
the river and the tracks caved under the
weight of the train. The train consisted
of the engine, combination baggage and
express car, smoker, two ordinary coaches
and four sleepers. The engine and two
forward cars were submerged in fifty feet
of water.
The only eye Witnesses of the disaster
were the crew of a tugboat passing with
tow. They saw the train with its light as
it came flashing about the curves and
then saw a greater part of it go into the
river. A porter jumped from one of the
cars that remained on the track and ran
into the yard of Augustus Carr's house,
near which the accident occurred and stood
screaming for help and groaning.
In few minutes Carr had dressed him.
self and getting boat rowed with the
porter to the scene. AS they turned
point in the bank they came upon the ex-
press car and the combination car floating
about twenty feet from shore, but sinking
every minute. One man was taken from
the top of the car and efforts were made to
rescue those inside. A few were gotten
out, the passengers left upon the track
making human bridge to the shore to
take the wounded on. The day coach and
smoker had gone down in the deeper
water and rescue was impossible. In the
latter coach the conditions must have been
horrible. The car turned completely over
and the passenger end of it was in the
deep water, while the baggage end stood
up towards the surface. The men in the
lower end must have fought like fiends for
brief period, for the bodies when taken
out were a mass of wounds.
At the time of the wreck there were in
man, Herman Ac1er, eight Cinnamon en-
route from the Canadian border to New
York, and middle aged man supposed to
be Thomas Reilly of st. Louis. All of
these excepting the baggagemaster
perished. The day coach contained eight
cen or twenty passengers, many of them
women and children. How many of
these escaped is not known, but at
least twelve were drowned or killed
in this car. Behind the coach was the
four sleepers, with about sixty-five pas
sengers. The total cargo of human freight
consisted of something over 100 people,

Kailulani, the ex-queen in person gave to
the Associated Press the following author
lied statement:
'There is no truth in any report that she
has abdicated. No official action has been

with her. The question Of politics did not

her"
The foregoing was dictated by the ex-
queen, who requested, however, that it be
used in the third person.

THE WEEK IN TRADE.
The Business World as Seen by
Dun Il Co.

Dun Il Co.
r. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of
Trade says: After the heaviest buying
ever known in many branches during
september and the first half of October, it
was both natural and desirable that more
quiet period should give time for testing
the size and temper of retail trade and for
distributing part of the enormous quanti-
ties bought. In textile goods the rush of
orders went far beyond all distributive de-
mand in August, and represented great
replenishment of stocks, and the similar
rush for goods has been correspondingly
great in other lines during the past two
months.
Some large offerings of wool were made
at Boston to realize profits before prices
fall, but quotations remained unchanged
The produce market acted with as little
apparent reason as usual. Although At

bushels, flour included, and for three
weeks of October 10, 1908 bushels against

not half million bushels larger the price

Assignment Made by the FoWlc1
Company of Chicago.
An assignment was made at Chicago
Friday by the Fowler Bicycle Company,
one of the largest bicycle concerns in the
west. Tho company has not been doing
flourishing business for some time and has
keenly felt the competition Of cheap
wheels. The officers of the company are
reticent regarding the amount of assets
and liabilities, but the best information
obtainable gives the liabilities as close to
$5O0,000 and the assets much less. The
concern employed about 500 men.
1t has been rumored for some time that
the company was in financial difficulty.
The action taken was precipitated by the
employees. Wednesday was pay day, but
the firm asked the men to wait until Sat-
urday, October 23, for their money. A
committee of the men called on the treas
urer and asked him if they would be paid
on Saturday the wages due them up to
week ago Saturday or whether they would
be paid to date. The difficulty of raising
another weeks pay roll decided the officers
of the company to give up the struggle
and assign.
