WRECK ON THE RAIL.
A TERRIBLE DISASTER ON THE
NEW YORK CENTRAL.
Fast Express with Load of S1umber.
ing Passengers Makes an Awful Leap
Into the Hudson Goes Over the EN-
bankment to Destruction.
Many Lives Lost.

disastrous railroad accident occurred
on the New York Central and Hudson
River Railroad short distance below
Garrison's station, early Sunday morning.
The train was the State express, due in
New York at 80 o'clock, and was made
up Of engine No. S72, a combination bag
gage and express car, a smoker, two ordi-
nary passenger coaches and four sleepers,
IN charge of Conductor Parish.
The train left Albany at 3:15 o'clock, on
time, and was going at a good rate Of
speed when it passed Garrison's. It was
a mile and a half below there when the
accident occurred. Conductor Parish says
the track seemed to fall out from under
the train, the train seemed to shoot into
the air, and the next minute it appeared
to fall into the river. Into the waters Of
the Hudson the cars plunged, dragging
through the water the helpless passengers.
There was nothing to presage the terrible
accident which so suddenly deprived so
many human beings of life.
Two cars were left on the track. The
engine did not stop until it lay submerged
fifty feet below the surface. The two for
ward cars followed and were piled upon
the engine. The smoker and two follow
ing ordinary cars broke from the train
and ran some distance along the bank and
then into the water. Two of the sleeping
cars ran into the river, but fortunately
were left only partly under water, the
windows toward the shore being lift
above the surface. First reports gave the
total number of known dead at nineteen;
the estimated number, twenty-eight.
Neither engineer nor fireman will ever
tell the story of that terrible moment, for,
with his hand upon the throttle, the en-
gineer plunged with his engine to the
river bottom, and the fireman, too, was at
his post. Behind them came the express
car, the combination car and the sleepers,
and these piled ON top of the engine. 1t
is known that it was a trif1e foggy and
that the track was not visible, but if there
was any break in the lines of steel it must
have been of very recent happening, for
only an hour before there had passed over
it heavy passenger train laden with hui
man freight.
The section of road was supposed to be
the very best on the entire division. There
was great heavy retaining wall all along
the bank, and, while the tide was high
Sunday, it was not unprecedented. What
seems to have happened was that under
meath the tracks and ties the heavy wall
had given way and when the great weight
of the engine struck the unsupported
tracks it went crashing through the rest
of the wall and topped over into the river.
AS the train plunged over the embank-
ment the coupling that held the last two
of the six sleepers broke and they miracu-
lousy remained on the broken track. In
that way some sixty lives were saved.

The New Food Drink.

Half the coffee" you drink isn't COT
fee anyway: but even il it were Mocha
and Java, the new food-drink, GrainO,
is better. There is nothing in it to hurt,
while in coffee there Is. The better the
coffee-the less adulteration-the more
injurious. Grain-O is made from pure
grains, has the rich color of good coffee,
sets nicely on the most delicate stom-
ach, is fine for children, is nourishing,
and keeps nobody awake nights. Drink
as much as you please at a late dinner
or supper and you don't get up in the
morning saying, "Oh, my head, my
head!' Try it week or two and you
won't go back to the old beverage. And
then the cost-four cups of Grain-O at
the price Of one cup of coffee. Ask your
grocer for a package. Two sizes-15c.

A Startling Imagination.

II don't go out much after dark on
my Wheel" said the rather timid citi-
zen.
"Why not?'
I'm afraid of these scorchers."
''But there are police especially en-
ployed to look after them"
II know it. They are the chief causes
of my uneasiness. Supposing scorch-
er starts up the street, pedaling for dear
life and turning sharp corners with
frenzy of his kind. And supposing po-
liceman starts after him, striking the
same pace as nearly as possible. Then
another policeman mistakes him Cor a
scorcher and does his best to keep up,
and so on until you have the entire
force out. It's bad enough to think Of
lodging a single scorcher, although it
might be managed, but when it comes
to a whole procession of them feel like
staying quietly at home. "-Washington

TWICE Welded,
BUT NOT LOVED
Stockton Woman Brings
Suit Against Her
Rival.
Mrs. Humphrey Claims That
Mrs. Pope Robbed Her of
a Husband.
They Were Once Divorced, but Re-
married. Only to Separate
Again.

e STOCKTON, CAL, April 26.-Attorney
James A. Louttit this afternoon filed a
novel and sensational suit, which adds
another chapter to the matrimonial his
tory of Mr.. and Mrs. w. G. Humphrey.
Mrs. Humphrey sues Louisa c. Pope, the
widow of the late Tom Pope, the capital
ist. for $50, 900 damages for alternating the
affections of her husband.
The suit is said to be the first of its kind
ever brought here. ForIa full understand
ing of ii, it is necessary to revert to the
ups and downs of the married life of the
Humphreys. They were welded on No
VEN ber l. 1879, and lived happily together
for several years. They have two children
living-Inez and Ethel-girl twins, aged
eight years. A decree of divorce was
granted to Mrs. Humphrey on Decem Der
20, 1894. on the ground of cruelty. They
subsequently became reconciled, and on
the 9th of March, 1895, were again made
man and wife by a contract marriage.
The document was filed for record on Feb
ruary II OF this year, and created not
little surprise. as that was the first public
notice of the reconciliation. They got
along most harmoniously after their Sec
ond marriage until late last summer, when
Mrs. Pope, it is said, appeared on the
scene" Since then Mr.. Humphrey ha.
been living on the Pope ranch as foreman,
and Mrs. Humphrey has been alone.
The complaint recites the fact of the
marriage and states that Mrs. Hum phrey
has been deprived OF the support, affection
and fellowship of her usband by Mre.
Pope and is thereby damaged to the
amount sued for. The case will be yigor-
ously fought on both sides.
