A Close Shave.

John s. Charlton occupied berth IL OF
the Pullman sleeper attached to the Rio
Grands train last night from Denver
Mr.. Charlton retired to his berth just
after the train left Palmer Lake and be-
ing tired out with attendance at the
state conven ion and in doing business
Ia the city soon fell into sound sleep
After the train left Colorado Springs,
where it 10 required that all cars be OK
amiped, the same AZ they are at tue
Union depot in this city. the Pullm n
conductor OF the train noticed bright
blaze coming from the box OF the axle
on the rear portion OF the car. The ar
brake whistle would not work and as
the engineer had his head turned from
him, looking out over the track he could
not signal him. The Pullman conduc-
tor becoming alarmed as bright flame
shot out from under tho car notified the
conductor and the porter Of the car that
the car was on IRE and the cry was TAX
on up in the car and panic almost on
sued, AZ it was crowded with men, women
aud children.
The train was stopped at point few
miles out OF WigwAm side station
about thirty miles from Pueblo and
after considerable effort the tire was put
out.
The journal OF the axle had broken in
two apd had not the train been stopped
a frightful accident might have resulted.
As MIR. Charlton's berth was imme.
dia,ely over the truck, when he WAS
awakened he was in quite a state OF ex,

gers.

Pistols in Kentucky.

Not in the mountains among the il
literate, uncouth, uncultured and half
savage inhabitants of the wilds, but in
Frankfort, the capital of Kentucky, in
the lobby of a fashionable hotel and in
the midst of an assemblage of "honor-
able and high-toned gentlemen" each
of whom would pull gun" instanter
at any reflection on his gentility or
breeding, did the last shooting affair
of the many happening in that state,
that have shocked the country occur
The principal shooter was colonel, an
ex-congressman and generally of high
degree. The victims are men of equal
or nearly equal standing. There was
feud the colonel and ex-congress-
man was there in the crowd with his
pistols, he saw his enemy and blazed
away, regardless of the dense throng.
In the fusilade five were hit, three of
them fatally.
What can we expect OF the ignorant
mountaineers when such an example is
set for them in the center of Kentucky
culture, by those whom they are ac-
customed to regard as models? What
hope can there be of reforming and
tanning the backwOods when the pistol
habit and the mania for murder is so
rampant right uLder the shadow of the
Capitol? The dispatches say there is
profound sorrow for the accidental
killing of Demaree and Julian" two of
the victims who seem to have been
outside CT the original quarrel. Acct
dental indeed Is it an accident when
a man begins to shoot in a crowded ho-
tel lobby, when every shot is more
than likely to find victim? 1t is as
much deliberate murder as if it had
been committed by lying in wait
There should be profound sorrow, in
deed, not only for the victims, but for
this crOwning disgrace upon the good
name Of the State and the good name
of the Nation. If there is any virtue
and any element of good order in the
State of Kentucky it should rise up
and assert itself, and never cease doing
so until the chief sensations CT Ken
tuck life shall be something besides
lynchlngs. deadly feuds and murder
among gentlemen. ."-Pittsburg Times

Home For Drunkards.

A bill for the establishment OF a
State hospital for dipsomaniacs has
been drafted, and will be introduced by
one of the Columbus Representatives
probably. This proposition has been
agitated in previous legislatures, but
the chances for its adoption are now
fairly good. The bill will carry an ap-
preparation Of $15O,OOO The design is
to establish an institution for the care
of habitual drunkards, which shall be
entirely separate from other State hos
pitals, having its own staff Of physi-
clans, who are to be specialists in the
line of dipsomania. There is some
sentiment, however, in favor of build
ing an annex to one of the insane asy-
lums and adding the cure of the drink
to the duties of the Superintendent.
The plan is opposed by physicians
who have had experience in treating
this disease. They say cheerful sur
are essential, and to immure
sufferers with alcoholic appetite with
the insane would tend to promote mel
the condition to be fought
against above all others. The State
Board of Charities and other charity

the proposed bill, providing it does in

sary appropriations for housing all the

Board of Charities, in his annual re-
port estimates that $15OOOO will be
necessary for additional cottages at the
Dayton and Athens asylums
together with the completion of the
Masslllon State Hospital, in order to
house the 300 to 1900 patients now in
county infrmaries.
The promoters of the Dipsomaniac
Hospital think this appropriation can
be made, and the State still afford to
make at least beginning this year of
the construction of the hospital for the

Wills for Soldiers.

We learn from Harpers Weekly that
the British war Office is supplying ey-
cry soldier who goes to the front with
three balnk forms of wills. The first
for the man who wishes to leave all
his property to one person; the second
for those VINO wish to bequeath leg
acies to several persons, and the third
for the use of married soldiers deslr-
Ing to leave their property to their
wives and children. The British SOL
dier, like nest other people, usually
neglects to make his will until the
very last moment and frequently waits
until wounded or dying upon the field.
1t is said that formerly the men would
scrlbble their will in a few words on
some stray bit OF paper or on the in.
side of hemlet, the lid of cartridge
box, or perhaps on stone lying near
by. The records OF the British war
office contain many queer examples Of
unusual ways of bequeathing the prop
erty Of dying soldier may have to
give, and the frequency with which
such Wills were made led to the adop-
ton Of these blanks. which may be
very conveniently filled out with Mttle
writing. The plan seems good, and
we would suggest that il hospitals and
emergency physicians. as well as sol
diers, were provided with such blanks
that they might prove OF great conYen-
ience in many cases of emergency and
severe illness, and legal complications
might many times be avoided by their
use.-Medical Journal.
