Cause of the Delay.

Train No. ], which should have reach
ed this city at midnight night before
last did not arrive here until about 8
o'clock last night. The announcement
was made by the Sentinel that the train
had struck rock but no particulars
were given because none could be OBJ
tanned.
However, the cause for the delay has
been learned and it may be interest ting
to know the reason. The train, which
was in charge OF Conductor w. D. Clark
and Brakeman Hout, was pulled by En-
gineer Gus Olsen.
In Grand canon at point about four
miles east of Glenwood Springs, an i'm
mense boulder, weighing at least two
tons, had come down on the track and
spread the rails. The engine struck the
rock and the front end vas badly wreck
ed. Fortunately, for the safety OF the
lives of the passengers and the crew, tho
train was moving very slowly, 30 slowly
in fact that the shock did not derail the
train, even the engine did not leave the
track.
There is no question that, had the
train been going at the usual rate OF
speed, there would have been terrible
wreck. AS it was, no one was hurt, the
damage TO the engine and the shock to
the passengers and crew and the incon-
venience of the delay were the only re-
suits.

QUALITY OF ARMY MEAT.-During
the course of proceedings of the gov
ernment meat investigation in Chicago
last Wednesday, First Lieutenant M.
F. Davis, of the First Cavalry, was
called on request of Major Lee. He
said that in Cuba the men opened all
the cans of roast beef issued to them ;
but only consumed one half of the
contents on an average, and the rest
was thrown away, because it was unfit
to eat.
The contents of the can, he said,
would be about three-quarters suet,
not what you would call meat. Per-
haps one-quarter or one.fifth Of the
can would be good fibre meat; the
rest appeared to be tailings or clippings.
Sometimes can would be entirely
spoiled. Witness said he once opened
can which smelled bad he examined
it and found maggots in it.
Major Lee-How did the maggots
get in there?
"They were canned in there"
Colonel Davis-Are you aware that
in the process of canning, this meat un-
dergoes such an intense heat that no
animal life could survive in it?
"I don't mean to say they were
alive. They were dead"
Major Lee-Are you positive as to
the identity of the animal?
eyes sir; quite positive"
"In consequence of the canned roast
beef not being sufficiently sustaining
and not having nutriment in it, did
your men lack for food ?"
"They did,"
Colonel Gillespie-What was the
name of this brand that you found
with maggots in it?
ut was the Swift & Co.'s brand"
care you certain of that2"
II am certain"
The court adjourned to meet in
Omaha, Neb., on Thursday.

OBITUARY..

D1ED-At his home in Yorkville, S. c.,
May 20, 1885, in the 10Th year of his age,
DIR. JOHN F. LINDSAY.
DR.. Lindsay was native of York coun-
ty, and during the whole of his life was
closely identified with it, contributing no
little to its material and spiritual welfare.
For upwards of so years he practiced
medicine in the town Of Yorkville and
the vicinity, continuing his faithful labors
to the very close of life. Other physicians,
doubtless, have acquired greater reputa..
ton for learning and skill, and climbed
higher on the ladder of fame but it is safe
in the affections of those to whom he min
istered.
By nature warm-hearted and sympa-
thetic, his patients were something more
than so many ''cases," and so deep often
was the personal interest he felt in them,
that at times he was almost untitled for
his duty as physician.
He united with the Presbyterian church
in Yorkville in the prime of life. and was
a consistent and faithful member. For
80 years he served as elder in this church,
and always ready and full Of tact, 1t often
fell to his lot to act the part of mediator,
and many difficult and delicate duty was
entrusted to him because of his recognized
fitness. He was by nature a sociable man,
and the porch of his office. or the stoop in
front of his residence, was a gathering
place for young and old alike. Passers-
by stopped for chat, and this daily con-
tact with his fellowmen was not simply q
pleasure and recreation, but was most
helpful, and many can testify to the words
of friendly help and sympathy spoken on
such occasions. How often, too, the weary
pastor in his rounds has tarried for few
restful moments at that wayside station,
and has gone on his way refreshed and en-
couraged.
In iS45 he was married to Miss Rosan-
nah w. G. Trott, of Boston, Mass, and
after journeyipg together for more than
so years, this faithful "companion of his
youth" now mourns his loss, together
with four children.
He came to the grave ''in full age, lik Q
as shock of corn cometh in his season."
For several months his failing health and
increasing feebleness gave warning that
life's labor's were drawing to close; but
while he recognized the fact. and spoke to
those about him of his decease which he
must shortly accomplish yet he labored
on as his strength permitted, to the very
last, visiting one of his old patients but
two or three days before his departure.
The end came suddenly, and in a mo-
ment long and useful life was ended on
earth, to be continued, we trust, in fair-
er cline above.
He is sadly missed by loved ones and
friends; but heaven is richer by reason of
our loss. When Phillip Brooks died,
little child in the congregation to which be
ministered, exclaimed, Mamma, won't
the angels be glad !" and we may be sure
that many who have gone before have ac-
corded to "the beloved physician" cor
dial welcome.
SERVANT of God, we'll done
Rest from thy loved employ:
The battle fought, the victory won,
Enter thy Masters joy"

The Seaboard Air Line officials were
appealed too; but no relief came from
them. The people have determined
to have the agent arrested, and accord
ingly have had the governor to issue
the requisition. Williams headquar-
tiers are in Atlanta and it is thought
that there will be little trouble in get
ting him back. The law as to such
agents is that they must take out a
license for $500 in each county where
they operate, which was intended as
prohibitory legislation. The penalty
is a fine of $500 and not more than
$4,000, or Imprisonment in the county
Jail for four months or in the peniten.
tiary for six months. Williams had
no license and hence the charge against
him. Sheriff Nance, of Ahbeville,
has been deputized to carry the papers
to Atlanta.
The Evans's School Chart.
Superintendent of Education McMa'
han informs the Columbia State that
in the various counties between $57 ,OOO
and $5S, ,OOo of the school funds were
invested in Evans's arithmetical charts.
The amounts expended by the differ.
ent counties vary from about 81 ,O00
to $4,000. In Horny county, the three
mill tax raises between $4,000 and S.
900, and the chart purchases amount
ed to nearly $4,000. In one Florence
district, containing four schools and
having an apportionment of $3.50 80,
the chart purchases amounted to 1916,
leaving only $4.60 with which to pay
the teachers. Some few of the coun-
ties refused to allow the chart agents
to canvass among the trustees. Super
intendeut of. Education Knox, of Ches'
ter, took the position that his county
had "already experienced the danger
of turning such agents loose"

After "Peg Leg" Williams.
Columbia Record: The governor
today issued requisition on the gov
ernor of Georgia for R. A. Williams,
the well.known emigrant agent. He
is familiarly spoken of as "Peg Leg"
Williams and is famous for the big
crowds of Negroes he can corral and
take off to the cotton fields in Missis-
sippi and Arkansas. Recently he has
been operating in Abbeville county,
near the Savannah river, along the
line of the Seaboard Air Line. Ac-
cording to reliable reports, he succeed
ed in inducing about 500 Negroes in a
limited space of country to pull up
stakes and emigrate to the Mississippi
valley. Many of the Negroes were
under contract to the farmers in Able
vile, and the wholesale removal of
"hand's" seriously interfered with farm
work in that portion of the county.
