The fight between eX.Postmaster Gen

the position soon to he vacated by Scna-
tor Cameron, Of Pennsylvania, is waxing
warm and sharp things are said on both
sides. Senator Quay's candidate for the
position is Boise Penrose, but Mr.. Wana.
maker is telling how tho latter did all he
could to defeat the nomination of Mcliin
ley, and yet is prcsuming to dispense the
Federal patronage in advance of his in
auguration. Mr.. Wanamakcr evidently
thinks that Boss Quay has no claims on
the incoming administration, and it looks
very much as il he expected it's support
in his tWanamakcr contest for the
Senatorship. He made very good post
master general, and if Mckinley is in
doubt as to whom he should appoint to
this position in his cabinet, he would..not
make a mistake by giving the place to
MI. Wanamaker.

near Sherman Heights, suburb
of Chattanooga, last week. The
accident occurred where the
Georgia division of the Southern
Railroad crosses Harrison avenue.
The mother and nine children,
were in the wagon. The mother
and six of the children were killed
instantly and the other three
children are dangerously hurt.
They lived eight miles out i'll the
country and were coming to Chat
tanooga. The father, W. j. Wood
ward, was already in town. They
failed to notice the signals given
by the trainmen and death came
to them before they were aware Of
their danger. Both horses were
killed and the wagon demolished
The shock to the train was SO
severe that all the window glass
in it was Jared to fragments. The
bodies were brought to an under
taking establishment in Chat
tanooga soon after the accident.
Two of the injured children can
not recover.

The island of Crete, at present
the object of so much interest, is
situated in the Mediterranean sea,
south of Greece. 1t is about 16O
miles in length, and nowhere ex-
ceeds 35 miles in width. Tropical
fruits abound. The island also pro-
duces cotton, tobacco, olive oil,
wine, silk. st. Paul visited Crete
and planted a church there, hence
the great number of Christians on
the island. They have long desired
union with Greece, for they ara of
Greek descent.
