An almost successful attempt
was made to wreck IA Wabash pas
senger train two miles west of Par
is, Monroe county, one night last
week. Three ties were placed
across the track, but the engineer
saw them in time to check the
train before the obstruction was
struck. The ties were piled one
upon the other, so that the two on
top were knocked from the track by
the pilot of the engine, while the
third was thrown lengthwise across
the track in such a position as to be
pushed along under the engine for
some distance. The train was a
fast one, which uses the Misso uri,
Kansas and Texas tracks between
MOberly and Hannibal in the run
to Chicago and Buffalo.

IN HIS STEPS.
AS has happened before to some
places and people, Topeka and the
Rev. Chas. Sheldon sprang into
world wide prominence in few days.
1t was our fortune to meet Mr.. Shell
don the past winter to hear him
preach, and see some of the results
of his work. Of the latter we shall
write at some future time. At pres
ent we will treat of his personality
and pulpit work. A year ago we
heard enough about Mr.. Sheldon
to excite our curiosity, but were UNI
able to hear him. The past winter
we took advantage OF pleasant Sun
day to drive into Topeka end attend
services a. the Central Congregational
church. Ia Arrangement the church
is unique and different from any we
ever saw. The DOM for the Sunday
School Kindergarten is nearly as
large as the main part, is handsomely
finished and arranged with every con
venience for interesting the little one>
and starting them In His Steps.
Mr.. Sheldon is of medium height.
stoutly built, smooth shaver and a seT
Gus cast of countenance. He catered
his pulpit.as business man would A!s
office, and projects with his service
in a conversational tone of voice,
that is seldom raised and is singu-
laTly tree from any effect. AS he
opens his sermon is the same even,
we'll modulated tone of voice, to
the stranger, who expected some
thing wonderful in the way of oratory
as they expected something wonderful
in his paper, the result Is at first
equally disappointing. But as the
sermon progresses he soo,. has ones
entire attention. Every sentence
comes laden with thought and mean
ing. And at the end one can only
say that there is man who is trying
to advance his Masters cause, not
his own. Who has a message to de
liver, and simply delivers j; SO as TO
convey his meaning to his people.
Many of the leading papers have
seen lit TO critcise Mr.. Shelons
editorial efforts. Following their
lead the lesser lights have not hest
tated to insinuate that it was an
advertising scheme on his part. Mr.
Sheldon received not a cent for
tina, which was probably the
hardest weeks work Of his
life. The organized characters
and State Temperance Union have
some So5 100000 more to carry
on their good work, one half the
profits going to them and one half the
paper and while his effort may have
been failure as daily news paper
yet Mr. Sheldon is too firmly EN-
trenched in the hearts Of his own
people to ever be touched by any tide
OF adverse criticism.

posed to any territorial division of
China. Every resource of diplomacy
will be exhausted to prevent partition
of the empire. 1t is pointed out, how
ever, that in view of the attitude al
ready assumed by the United States
and the large part it has had in open
ing the way to Picking, this govern
ment is in a position to demand COM
mercial freedom in China, as MIMI
mum condition of the final settlement
in the event of territorial division of
the Chinese empire, should that be
accomplished. The United States of
course wants no territory and it is felt
that her rights as to commercial free
dom are too clear TO be gainsaid by
the other nations. The American
troops now in China are sufficient to
do this country's part towards restor-
ing order. The imperative demand
for troops for the relief of Picking has
been met, and our work in China was
largely accomplished when the relief
of the ministers was effected.

Congressman Burieigh h.

Over in Gardiner there is the
6veliest kind of fight over a post
office appointment. Ordinarily these
tghts-they are common enough, for
IN race for postmastership ali con-
testants cannot win-create only
local interest. But in the present in
stance, because one of the disappoint-
cd aspirants for the postotfice at
Gardiner happened to be a war vet
sran, an attempt has been made to
carry the local fight into district poll
tics, and by it create disafection
among the republicans, particularly
among old soldiers.
The attempt to hold Governor
Burleigh up as the enemy of the sol
der, instead of having the desired
effect, has called his friends all the
more enthusiastically to his support.
1t has resulted in food of testimony
in his favor from old soldiers all over
the district
There is no indication that the
Gardiner fight will have any effect
on the vote in Hancock county, but
since an attempt has been made to
carry the fight into this county, it is
due to Gov. Burleigh to show some
of the evidence on the other side.
To this end, THE AMERICAN this week
prints on page brief review of the
postoffice matter, and extracts from
letters from army veterans. They
need no comment. Gov. Burleigh can
depend upon his record of service for
the soldier.

Next Monday evening Senator
Frye will speak in Ellsworth. The

speeches in the Maine campaign are
the big sensation of these weeks that
are stirring The republican blood. One
writer, speaking of Mr.. Frye's West
brook speech, says: when Senator
William P Frye came to speak, when
the best platform orator in the United
States, as Mr.. Blaine called him, he
gan to address the gathering, the en-
thusiasm grew and grew until the
senior senator from Maine held every
man, woman and child in the audi
ence spellbound. With his patriotic
utterances, his cold figures, his unas-
sailable arguments, he brought his
hearers face to face with the glorious
records of the republican party, and
struck the initial blow in Maine at the
democratic party"
