THEY WE'RE MAD.
The Arrival of the Steamer Cleve
 land causes a Commotion,

On last Friday the Government steamer, "Cleyeland.a with a tow Of barges arrived here to begin work on our river front, which needs it so badly, if it is not to be washed away
 Yesterday the GRAPHIC reporter noticed number of rampant Free Silycrites caucusing and pointing with excited iestures toward the river front. He set about lea ming the cause, and approaching one of the crowd asked what was tie mat fer:
 We have been grossly insulted, '' replied well-known Free Silver man. Just look at that - vessel bearing that ill-omened name-Cleve- lanG-it was sent here just to tor ment us in our misery and weshould send it to the bottom of the river. We don't want anything about us with the name Cleveland on it. Just look at the harm the man whom the boat was named for has caused us. When he became President there was a street ear line on nearly every street in Pine Bluff. Now. thanks to his manner in administering national affairs, the car line is gone, our people have not money enough to ray a ear fare, times are hard and growing harder He had it in his power to give prosperity to the country and did not do it. D-n Cleveland, and anything that bears his mama. Let US sink the d-n boat"
 Other members of the party joined the excited speaker and were march ing toward the river when cooler heads reminded them that Harrison was now President. and that it was due to his administration that the boat had been sent here. and a sug- gesti0n was made that the day was very hot and that it would be good idea to take something to cool the inner man, so the crowd faced about and sought the nearest saloon and soon the reporter heard, sIl take mine straight, given the bar tender
 Thus ended an affair which might have become an international one to which the trouble between the United States and Spain would have been as nothing
 Poor old Cleveland! He catches it on all sides, and, doubtless, de- serves more shan he catches, even so good fisherman as he is.

MT. Isaac Horner, proprietor of the Burton House, Burton, W. Va, and ono of the most widely know men in the State was cured of rheumatism after three years of suffering. He says: "I have not sufficient com mand of language to convey any idea of what l suffered; my physie- ians told me that nothing could be done for me and my friends were fully convinced that nothing but death would relieve me of my suffer ing. In June, 1891. Mir. Evans, then salesman for the Wheeling ilrug Co., recommended Chamberlain Pain Balm. At this time my foot and limb were swollen to more than double their normal size and it seemed to me my leg would burst, but soon after I began using the Pain Balm the swelling began to decrease, the pain to leave, and now l consider That I am entirely currtt.

TWO BAD WRECKS.
Three Portland Men Killed in
3. & M. Wreck Near Exeter.
Accident Due to a Washout- Another
Wreck Near Seabro,k, N. H.
Loss In FIRST Will Reach $40, o00-Los In
Latter, About $1,000.

Exeter.N. H..June 1O.-The most seri-
Gus freight wreck on the Boston &
Maine Railroad in many months oc-
Cured on the Western division about
quarter of a mile east of this station,
at 100 O'Clock this morning. Train No.
600. known as the Portland and Boston
through night freight, ran into a wash
out at Fernalds culvert.
The locomotive and seven cars were
demolished, and three men were killed.
The dead are: Charles Rankin. engi-
neer, of Portland; A. c. Young. brake
man, Portland; Albert Chandler, brake
man, Portland.
Daniel King. the fireman, was badly
burned and was otherwise injured in
the wreck. He is at the Cottage hospi-
tai here. 1t is thought the chances are
good for his recovery.
The train was u heavy one. &onsist-
ing of 20 cars and was about half an
hour behind time. 1t was speeding
along at good rate and the engineer
apparently had no warning of the
washout ahead. Those who were in
the rear of the Nain were suddenly
thrown down by a violent shock and
the cars came to complete standstill.
The locomotive left the rails, which
for distance of 20 feet had been I'M
dermined by the swollen stream be-
meath the culvert, and the mogul and
seven heavily laden freight cars went
over 40-foot embankment. The en-
CINE and cars and contents of the lat
ter, We're practically ruined.
The engineer and two brakemen, who
We're on the front portion of the train.
were dead when found some time after.
They had no chance to jump and were
caught in the wreckage. The fireman.
Daniel King. went down nearly the entire
distance with the engine and was badly
burned and scalded.
Twelve freight cars and the caboose re-
manned on the rails. and beyond a severe
shaking up, Conductor Eugene Thurston
and the third brakeman Edward Clark
We're not injured.
AN inspection of the wreck. this fore
noon. shows that the water in the culvert,
swollen to a good-sized stream by the
heavy rains. had washed away the en-
bankment and roadbed for a distance of
20 feet leaving the rails practically held
only by the fish plates.
The road is completely blocked and
traffic will hardly be resumed before late
this afternoon. All trains are stalled and
the tie-up Is more complete owing to a
wreck on the Eastern division, near Sea-
brook. Passengers are being carried in
oarges around the scene of the accident
distance of three-quarters of mile
Wrecking trains from Portland and
Lawrence have been here since before
daylight and several gangs of workmen
are clearing away the debris and filling
in the roadbed. The loss to the road Is
very heavy and will probably reach
s20.0
