naturally incurred the enmity of all

have been bestowed thickly on him.

A Mother and Four Chlldren Dead as
the Result.
Schuyler, Neb., oct. 4.--During the
forenoon Frank Steinad came hastily in
from Shell Creek precinct, nine miles
northwest, to summon a physician to
the home of Frank Davis, where he
said the whole family had been poi
soned. DR.. Sixta hastened out and found
four of the seven children in the family
and t}.ir mother dead, a fifth child in
a dy ng condition and a sixth victim
sick. Mr. Davis and his Oldest son went
away early in the morning, leaving be-
fore the rest of the family breakfasted.
When the meal was prepared those re
naming sat down and early in the
course of the meal Mrs. Davis made
some such remark as: Eat a good
breakfast and Wen all go together"
One of the older sons mind was af-
fected by the remark to the extent that
he did not appease his appetite. A
daughter, younger than the son, after
drinking about half cup of coffee be-
came sick and vomited. The rest Of the
family continued the morning meal, al
though the children made very wry
faces and said the coffee did not taste
good. Strychnlne had been put into the
coffee, which showed its effect, when
those not Frustrated spread the alarm,
but not soon enough to avoid the fatal
effects noted.

CotapaXi, Colo, Oct. 4.--The first sec
ton of the Denver and Rio Grande mar
row gauge train No. met with an ac-
eldent just west of here at O'Clock
yesterday morning. The accident was
caused by the breaking Of journal on
one Of the coaches. One coach, three
sleepers and a paycar left the track
and rolled over on their sides. The
wreck occurred at the end of a trestle,
the last car Of the train having only
passed across the bridge. Had the ac-
cident occurred while the train was
crossing the trestle the loss Of life
would undoubtedly have been very
great. The dead are Mrs. Mcintyre, OF
SilvertOn, and r. W. Seyler, of Clncin-
matt, Five passengers were seriously
and eight slightly injured.

and whenever a movement is made in
behalf of the cause General Neal
Dow, who passed away at his home
in Portland, Maine on Saturday, viii

by the Jealous workers who come
after him. His efforts in behalf of
temperance are known from one end

ample and influence, has saved from

peranee cause, in the death of Gen
eral Dow, has lost an earnest and de
