RED CROSS WORKERS WE'D.
Albert VanSchelle Soon toMarry Miss
Fowler In Chicago.

New York, Oct. 3.-Under the protection
of the Red Cross, Cupid did some effect
i've work in Cuba, which resulted in the
Fowler OF Springfield, Ill, a Red Cross
nurse, had become engaged to Albert Van
Schelle of the Belgian Red Cross. The
wedding will take place in Chicago Octo-
Der 9. What lends interest to the news
Is the fact that Mr.. Van Schelle was be-
HeyeG to be a confirmed bachelor.
he mad the best opportunity possible for
observing Miss Fowler under the most
trying clrcumst anceS, for they worked to-
gether under the Red Cross a Santiago
and endured in each others company the
hardshipS and incessant labor of war
nurses MI Van Scheue first met Miss
Fowler at Miss BartOn's house in Santi-
ago, where she lived, and that the first
meeting was but a short time ago is prov
ed by the fact that Mr.. Van Schelle only
reached this country on his way to Cuba
July &c.
Both Miss Fowler and Mr. Van Schelle
are particularly noted Red Cross workers.
Miss Fowler is very pretty and attra ctive.
At the beginning of the war she Voluu-
sent for from Cuba without coming to
New York, and was one of the nurses who
went only under Red Cross protection. not
under the protection of the government.
Mr.. Van Schelle, who is a man of middle
age, Of hne appearance, cultured, of an
excellent Belgian family and a lawyer by
profession. served in the Belgian Red
Cross in the FrancO-Prussian war He
was sent to America last year by the Bel
glan government to study American meth
DDS of breeding horses.

WITH ELECTRIC LIGHT.
Santa Fe Sets Pace For the
World on California Limited.

Chicago, Oct. 3.-The Santa Fe road has
made arrangements to light all the cars
of it's limited train running between Chi
cago and Los Angeles, a distance of 2,245
miles, with electricity evolved from the
friction of the car axles. The electric
equipment of each train will aggregate A.
92S candle power.
All berths will be provided with berth
lights and this will be the first train in
the world carrying such a large supply of
light service exclusively from car axles. 1t
is the intention also to light the locOmO-
tive headlight from the same service, thus
making the four limited trains solid axle
light trains throughout.
The Introduction of this system on the
limited trains will make quite departure
from previous practice, which necessitat-
ed large light plant in the baggage car.
The objection to this plan is that if the
the plant is out of order the entire light
output of the train is deranged- In the
axle light system such a thing cannot
happen. Each car has it's own plant,
which is small, compact and complete,
consisting of dynamo and storage bat

Ind, says:
The city is in a great state of excite
ment. One hundred and fifty coal
miners from Pana, Ill, came here yes
terday afternoon and met at the fair
grounds with the home union miners
and organized. At 10 o'clock last night
they got together and, masked, visited
all the shacks where the colOred coal
mines lived. About fifty of the negroes
We're corraI1ed and at the points of pis-
tolls were driven out of town.
One negro refused to go and the
miners fired on him. He has not been
found and may be killed. The police
could do nothing.
One brave policeman, Anderson Cam
non, went up to the whole mob and de-
manded of them to dispense. They an
swered by leveling their pistols at him.
The masked miners took the town.
Chief of Police Call turned in the fire
alarm and called out the citizens to
assist in keeping order. Several are
deputized and if there is a new outbreak
of trouble much blOodshed is likely to
result. The streets were crowded with
people. The masked men have hidden
themselves, possibly to make an attack
on other negro shacks. There are pos
sibly fifty negroes who declare they will
die before they will leave town.

ORDERED TO PORTO RICO.
Three More Regiments to Join the
Army of Occupation.

Washington, Oct. 3.-The war depart
ment has decided to send more troops to
Porto Rico. Orders have been issued di-
recting that the Fifth regular cavalry.
now at Huntsville, Ala; the Sixth United
States volunteer infantry, now at Chicka-
now at Fort Adams. shall proceed to
such point in Porto Rico as may be de-
sired by the commanding general in that
island. The Eighth United States volun-
teer infantry and two companies of Indi-
ana colored volunteers, now at Fort
Thomas. KY. will relieve the Sixth vol
unteer infantry at Chickamauga.
All the troops at Camp Meade will soon
be ordered to points in the south. Some
will for the present occupy the new
camps recently selected in Georgia and
South Carolina. 1t is said that the troops
sent to do garrison duty in Cuba will
not remain long, but when they have seen
service for a few months will return to
this country. The same is probably true
as to Porto Rico. It is also intimated
that when the troops return, the volun-
teers will be given sixty days furlough
gress will have had an opportunity to de-
termine what shall be done in regard to
garrisoning the new possessions.
This determination is no doubt due to
the pressure that has been brought by
members of congress for the mastering
out of the volunteers from their states
and districts. The responsibility for fur
army duty generally will be upon con-
gress. The recommendations of the pres
ident and the war department will have
been made before the troops from either
Cuba or Porto Rico return and the neces-
sity of the case made known.
