Buytf19 10. Death.

'Ss'fT Tuesday efcning about 7.so o'clock
the alarm Of fire was sounded to which
the fire department responded prompt
ly. There was some difficulty in
Locating the fire at first and the SER
vices of the firemen were not needed,
as the alarm was sent in from Gravel
Town and the flames extinguished by
persons already at the scene. The par
'ticulars of the sad accident are as fol-
lows: Joseph Rutherford, colored, oc-
cup.es the old Baird house In the rear
of the cotton seed oil mill, and his
l4-year-old daughter Rosabella, was at
home alone on Tuesday evening and
attempted to put. oil into lamp from
the oil can with lighted lamp, with
ont a chimney, near by, when it ex-
,ploded and set her clothing afire. Her
clothing was burned off by the time
.she reached the street in front of the
house, when assistance reached her.
Her limbs from her knees up, her chest
and face we're burned to crisp from
which she died during the night. DR.
Jas. Fl. McIutosh was called to ner as
sistance, but nothing could be done tc
save her life. The room in which the
oil can exploded caught fire but was
put out before much damage was done

Death.

Departed this life, September 7th,
1897, Miss Ida O. Grimes. She had
been in bad health for n long time, and
her friends had little hopo of her COM
plete recovery: but they did not expect
the end SO soon. She bore her aftlic-
tion patiently, and cheerfully. 1t has
been said of her, by one who has had
the pleasure Of knowing her from
childhood: "She was q mighty good
girl" She has been member Of the
Prosperity Baptist church for num-
ber of years. She spent about % years
in this life, manifesting Il sweet, gentle
disposition; and has now gone to her
reward. While it is sad to part with
her, it is a great consolation to be able
to "sorrOw not us those who have no
nope" !. w. Is.

GUARANTEES A PULLMAN.
It Came From Texas and May be In
fected With Smallpox.

Kansas City, Sept. A Pullman car
which came in on the Ell Paso train OF
the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific rail-
way yesterday was detached at the
company's yards in Arnourda1e because
it was believed to be infected with
smallpox. The company had been no
tilted by wire that one of the passen-
gers in the car, who had left the train
at Fort Worth, Texas, had been taken
with smallpox The car was according
ly Sidetracked.-
The porter of the car was also qCaran-
tined with the car until the health officials
could examine the ease. The porter will
probably be kept in the car until the
period of the incubation of the germ is
passed to prevent the possibility of his
spreading the disease. 1t is not known
whether or not he was sufficiently ex-
rosed TO the disease to take il.

NEW ROCK ISLAND BRANCH.
The Road to Enter St. Louis Before
January 1893.

Ottumwa, Ia, Sept. At develop
ments bear out present indications, the
Rock Island railway will have it's first
connection into St Louis before the end
of the present year, or soon thereafter.
Two months ago there was organized at
Eldon, division station on the Rock
Island the Eldon & St. Louis Railway
company. The names of none but 10
cal parties appeared in the deal at that
time, nor have they since. Little at
tention was given to the declaration of
the promoters of the enterprise. But
they formed an association, incorpor-
ated it and picked out route to st.
Louis.
The road is being surveyed from a
point on the Rock Island about two
miles west of Eldon through Troy and
Milton, Ia. and through Memphis,
Edna, Shelbyville, Shelbina and Paris
in Missouri. If the Rock Island is back
of the scheme the completion of the
road, with the construction of q few
miles in the northern part of the state.
will give them passage from st. Paul
to St, Louis.

COPPER sHEAraED CARS.
In Active Service for 10 Months With
Excellent Results.

New York, Sept. success appears
to have attended the experiment made
on the New Haven railroad in the
sheathing of passenger car with cop
per.
In this case the usual sheathing was
removed from first class car, the
frame was redressed and blocked and
the metal sheathing was prepared in
the conpany's shop, the process being
slow, as the work was out of the usual
line. 1t was thought that the copper
might add considerab bly, to the weight of
the car, but since the completion of the
work it has been found that the thinner
car shea thing is not desirable, for the
reason that the lips of the grooves in
the edge are inclined to curl, there not
being sufficient lumber in the upper lip
to make it firm.
All the posts and corners-in fact,
every exterior part of the passenger
car made of wood-were covered with
copper. The car has been run since
January without interruption, and no
appreciable evidence of expansion has
been noted during exposure to heat or
cold, and the stiffness of the material
prevents bad appearance on the board
Some 800 to 900 pounds of metal are re-
Quired.
