TENNESSEE CENTENNIAL.
The Lowest Rates Ever Made to an
Exposition in This Country.

The Lowest Rates Ever Made to an
Exposition in This Country.
The Exposition in commemoration of
the hundredth anniversary of the admis-
sion Of Tennessee into the Union is not
local affair by any means. 1t far sur
passes in extent of buildings, beauty of
grounds, interesting exhibits and number
of both foreign and home attractions any
exhibition ever held in this country, with
the possible exception of the Columbian
of 1898. Located as it is on the main
line of the Louisville and Nashville Rail-
road it is in the direct line of travel be-
tween the North and South, and can be
visited en- route with loss of but little
time. The extremely low rates that have
been established make it cheaper to go a
little out of your way, even, to take in this
great show, while its own attractions will
we'll repay special visit. Write Mr.. G.
P Atmore, Genl Pass. Agent, Louisville,
Ky, for matter concerning it.

FIFTY THOUSAND.
Number of West-Bound Excursion
lists Railroads Handled.

KANSAS CITY, July 6.-West- bound
excursion business during the past five
days has been the largest in the his
tory of railroading in this part of the
country.
A computation made to-day shows
that from June Both to July 4th inclu-
sive the Union Pacific, in addition to its
regular service, handled forty-six spe-
cial trains, each train carrying an aver
age of 300 passengers, or an average of
Il, 800 for this line alone.
The Burlington, Santa Fe, Missouri
Pacific and Rock Island carried similar
ly heavy business, the aggregate num-
Der of eXcursionists carried west from
here being something over $4,000.
DENVER, July 6.-From the morning
of June Both up to 4 p. m. July 6th the
Denver and Rio Grande Railroad han
died seventy-six trains into Grand
Junction carrying Christian Endeavor
people, OF these fifty-seven were spe-
cial and nineteen regular trains, this
service being necessary on account of the
movement of Christian Endeavorers.
A careful estimate would indicate that
the total number of west-bound passen-
gers handled during this period would
exceed 10000 in the movement of which
there was not an accident of any de-
scription either on the Denver and Rio
Grande Railroad or Rio Grande West
ern Railway, and while a number of
these trains were delivered late, they
were moved west of Colorado common
points with a delay not to exceed two or
three hours in any instance.

WHERE IS THE AERONAUT?
A Balloon Found Riding on the
Surface of Lake Michigan.

CHICAGO, July 5. - The Evanston
nfe-savers are looking for a lost aero
naut. When they find him they will
restore him to his balloon. The air ship
is riding on the surface of Lake Michi-
gan about three miles off the Evanston
station, but it is anchored, and the
aeronaut can have it on application.
When the balloon was first sighted the
life-saving crew ran out their boat and
after a hard pull managed to capture
it.
The life-savers say the balloon is of
the kind used for long voyages and not
the hot-air kind sent up by parachute
jumpers. Besides this, the basket is the
kind used by balloonists for long trips,
parachute jumpers only employing
-trapeZe.
The runaway balloon was first seen
to strike the lake a few miles off Rog-
er's Park It swooped down from a.
great hight and at the first plunge the
car went under the waves and was
dragged along a considerable distance
under the water. Sometimes the ball
loon would mount upward and lift the
car ten or fifteen feet above the waves
and then dive down and again i'm
merse the basket. There was no ball
loon ascensions so far as known around
here yesterday, and the presence of the
balloon is a mystery.

counts of railway accidents of all kinds.
He has now thousands of these mar
ratives. and from an attentive study
of them he has come to the conclusion
that no locomotive engineer ever came
alive out of his third disaster This is
all nonsense, Of course, but there may
be a basis Of truth in the calcuIa-
tions.
1t seems that this belief is widely
held by engineers themselves, and the
maker of the scrapboolx asserts that
it is SO well supported by experience
as to be almost as demonstrable as
the law Of gravitation or any other nat
ural regulation He does not insist
that engineers are never killed in their
first or second accident, but he does
maintain with great seriousness that
the man who has had two "close calls
WILL if he is wise, abandon railroadine
and make his living some other way.
It is not difficult to see how such a
superstition should have arisen. for the
chances that an engineer will three
times survive the perils of collisions
and derailments, greater for him than
for any one else on a train. are mani
festly close to the vanishing point. To
suppose that his danger is greater in
the third than in the first wreck is. of
course, merely another form of the de-
fusion that luck is bound to change"

SHIP BELLE OF BATH LOST.
BURNED TO THE WATERS EDGE
WAY OUT AT SEA.
Her Crew of Seventeen Have an
Experience They Are Not Like
1y Soon to Forget.

NEW YORK, July 6.-Seventeen
shipwrecked sailors, who just arrived
here on the Prince Line steamship Sar-
dinian Prince, from South America and
! West India ports, tell of battle with
that most dreaded of all enemies at
sea-fire. The men embarked at Bar
BADGES, having been forwarded from
there by the United States Consul. The
men belonged to the American ship
Belle of Bath, which was burned at sea
on June 18th, about $50 miles east
ward of the Barbados. Their trip
was one which they are not very like
ly to forget.
The Belle of Bath left this port on
June Goth, clearing for Hongkong, with
a cargo of case oil. All went well until
June 9th, when the first weeks journey
was at an end. The ship was sailing
along in fairly good weather when sud-
denly it sprang a leak. Captain Cur
tis ordered all his hands to the pumps
promptly. The water gained upon
them steadily and every moment it
looked as if the vessel would go to the
bottom. After twenty-four hours of
constant work, the water was reduced

stopped. and the crew worked in re-
lays for nine days, pumping the water
out.
When the men were almost exhaust
ed, on Friday afternoon, and some of
them We're on the verge Of collapse,
the cry of Fire" rang through the
ship. First Mate Cod detected little
clouds of smoke coming from the fore
castle, and quickly sounded the alarm
Captain Curtis, who was below, snatch
ing few hours sleep, sprang on deck
and ordered the matches closed down.
In few minutes, dense clouds of
smoke were issuing from the forecastle
accompanied by flames. The fire was
soon shooting high in the air and fan
ned by a breeze it was threatening the
whole ship.
Captain Curtis realized at once that
his vessel was doomed, and to endeavor
to fight the fire would be useless and
dangerous. Boats were hastily provis-
ioned. The order was given to lower
| them. With marvellous rapidity the
| flames spread all over the ship and the
men were forced to make haste to get
into the boats. The boats dropped away
to the leeward, and the men We're put
to the oars and rowed away to a safe
distance. By this time the ship was
blazing furnace.
The flames had reached the oil and
burst out from every part of the ves-
sci. When the flames had eaten their
way into the hold, a tremendous explo-
sion was heard. The decks of the ship
flew up, the sides burst, and a great
body of smoke and flames filled the air
1t took perhaps half an hour to finish
the work. When the smoke died away
the men in the yawl could see the Belle
of Bath had been burned to the waters
edge.
A heavy sea was running and with
every sweep of the oars the little life
boat was in imminent danger of being
swamped. Under light canvas 1O2 miles
were made, and after twenty-four

to his colleague, saying he proposed to
confine himself to the bounty question.
Reviewing the former sugar bounty
Law, he declared that it's repeal was an
act of perfidy and dishonor. He re-
gretted, therefore, to turn to the record
and find that on the vote to repeal that
law the first name recorded in the
affirmative was that of Allen. Again
he found on a second vote involving
some measure of relief to the beet
sugar industry, the first name recorded
in the negative was that of Allen of
Nebraska.
In 1891 a Populistic Legislature re-
pealed the beet-sugar bounty chapter
of the State law, and q Democratic
Governor approved the repeal. In 1895
a Republican Legislature restored the
bounty to five-eighths of a cent
pound over the veto Of the Populistic
Governor (Holcomb). Then when the
Populists came into power again they
promptly repealed the bounty law So
much, said Thurston, for the consist
ency Of his colleagues criticism. The
Republican party had in it's tariff bill
taken sugar from the free list, where
it was placed, in part due to his Popu-
listic colleagues.
Allen in turn justified his course, say
ing he had entered the Senate at a
time when the Government was bank
rupt, and when some course was i'm
peratiVe to reduce Government ex
penses, avoid bond issues and put more
money in the treasury. He had voted
for the Wilson bill repeating the
bounty because the bill contained the
income tax and other beneficial feat
ures
Allison then moved that the Allen
amendment providing a sugar bounty
be laid on the table. The motion pre-
vailed--yeas 81. nays 9. The negative
vote was cast by Allen, Butler, Harris
of Kansas. Heitfeld, Kyle, Pettigrew,
Stewart, Teller and Mantle, Populists
and Silver Republicans.
Referring to the vote, Teller said he
wanted it to go TO the people of the
Northwest that the Republican party
might have placed a bounty on beet
sugar, as these We're the votes to do
it.
Allison now came forward with a
request for an agreement for a final
vote tomorrow
Pettigrew interposed an inquiry as to
whether white pine lumber would be
left at 81 per 1000 feet. He desired
some assurance that the rates would
not be disturbed, otherwise he would
have TO object to an agreement
Allison gave assurance that the COM
mittee would not make a change, and
the agreement on the vote was then
reached
