His workmatcs cried out, "Scnd

icrlng youth cried:
Never mind sending for the
doctor; is there any one here who
can tell lie how to get saved? My
soul has been neglected, and Pm
dying without God. Who can help
mc?"
Although there were three hun
drcd men around him, there was no
one who could tell him the way to
salvation. After twenty minutes
Of untold agony, he died as he had
lived! The man who saw this acci-

Atlanta, June 25. Tho worst
wreck ever known in tho South oc-
Cured near McDonough, Saturday
night, twenty eight miles from hero.
The entire train crew and twenty
six passengers were killed. Only
nine passengers were rescued, all of
whom were more or less seriously
injured.
The wreck occurred at Camp creek,
one and e-half miles north of Nc
Donough, and was caused by the
undermining Of tho culvelt at that
point and the caving Of the embunk-
ment.
The crew consisted of j. II. Sulli
van, engineer; w. A. Barclay, con-
ductor; H. r. Gresham, Pullman
conductor; w. w. Bennett, baggage
master; j. j. Qaihlan, flagman, and
W. Fl. Green, Quinlan being the only
one to escape death.
Arriving at McDonough, the usual
stop WIS made, when tho train pulled
out for Atlanta.
The train was running pretty fast
when it reached Camp creek, but the
culvert was SO well constructed that
Engineer Sullivan give no thought
to the possibility Of q washout there,
and before he knew Of his danger no
had plunged fifty feet into the rag
ing torrent below, tss coaca es pilng
up on top of tho onsGtle iii tho gorge
Fire followed tie wreck and those
who would othorwisa hnvo escaped
with their lives persisted in tho
flames. The scene beggars descrip-
ton. All that remained Of the tram
was mass of ruins, the coaches be-
ing completely demolished.
Flagman Quinlan. though badly
injured, escaped from the wreckage
and carried the news Of the disaster
to McDonough.
The northbound freight was bold
up and a rescuing party hurriedly
organized, but when they reached the
= wreck they were unable to do any
thing, owing to the heavy rain, un-
til daylight, when the banks of the
swollen stream were strewn with
dead bodies.
Or the forty people on the train
many of them were employees, who
live in Atlanta and were returning
homo to spend the Sunday with their
families.
Some of the bodies were badly
mangled, showing they had been
crushed to death, while others we're
partly burned. 1t is presumed that
several met death by drowning.
The occupants Of the Pullman all
escaped death, but we're all moro or
less seriously injured.
The rescued tell narrowing tales
of the flames Immediately following
the wreck as we'll as detailing many
deeds of heroism.

herewith The Espeigie left Niua

his crew remaining on deck. After
running for some time, almost under
bare po.es, before the wind, the cutter
approached the Fiji group, and manag

and woman, who were brought on
here from Fiji by the Manapoui on

of her long struggle for life. Rasa Sc

with Fijiman, and upon his dying
from exposure, she left the timber
which he still chung to and swan away.
She reached shore in most exhaust

to swim-or more probably drift be-
fore the wind-till Tuesday morning,
when she reached the Island Of One

where the wreck took place. The man
had to swim some miles before he
