kansans Take Vigorous Measures to
Procure Harvest Hands.
Driven to desperation by sight of their
rich fields being ruined for want of har-
vesters, a party of twenty Usage County
tkansas) farmers held up a west-bound
Santa F'e train Tuesday night to obtain
the help necessary for reaping their
grain. No. 55 was pulling out Of Peter
son, a small town, when four husky,
heavily armed farmers entered the en-
CINE cab and ordereS the engineer to stop
at certain crossing a mile south Of
chat place. At the same time others
pointed revolvers at the conductor and
brakemen, and when the train stopped
compelled them to cut loose from the two
emIgrant cars containing harvest hands
bound for the Western fields.
Then there was a fierce conflict be-
tween the harvesters, who resented the
vigorous measures taken by the would
be employers. Finally, however, after
several of each party had been severely
injured, a compromise was effected by
several persons not engaged in the con-
ffict, and the two hundred harvesters
agreed to work in Usage County at $3.50
a day.

tragedy.

was the beau of the town. In the store
with him worked Jessie Morrison, the
handsome daughter of a respected judge
She was in love with Castle, and it is
supposed that his marriage to Miss Wiley

made a statement to the effect that Jes-

unlimited and unannounced, and had
abused and threatened her, and that

wife had called her in and accused her
of indiscretions of which she was not

and deadly attack upon her visitor. In
the scuffie which followed, Miss Morri-

Found Her Bow.

A Boston daily newspaper mentioned
the other day, as an instance of patri-
otlc fervor chastened by filial feeling, a
youth who entered his name at re-
crultlng office, and enthusiastically told
MS friends he was going South with
the Sixth Regiment. Three days later
ne was seen wearing a sober look, but
| bearing very quietly great disappoint-
ment His widowed mother had con-
WINGED him that he ought not go to the
| war, and had refused to sign her con
sent to his enlistment.
His submission had noble precedent
In the boy George Washington, who
joined the navy, but gave up his berth
and his eager desire at the will of his
mother.
In connection with this we are re-
minded of strange story told by the
Portland, Maine, Express
A soldier, who had returned from
Georgia with a recruiting detachment,
said that when Oh the way South with
his regiment, an elderly woman came
to the car windows during the halt at
Worcester, and with tears in her eyes
gave him a letter to her son. Would he
please try to find him!
1t was a blind commssion-and a
wild request-for she could only say
that she thought her missing boy
might have enlisted somewhere" but
the soldier promised the woman that
he would do all he could to find the
wanderer
Arrived at Chickamauga he devoted
some of his spare time to searching
among the regiments there for the
name that was on the outside of the
letter He was as much astonished as
gratified when, after a two days hunt,
he found the very man.
The stranger opened the letter. turn
ing pale as he read it, and before he
had finished it he tainted away.
1t appeared that this young man,
when Il boy at home nine years before,
had become angry with his parents and
had run away. In all this time he had
not written to them, and they had no
idea of his whereabouts or his fate.
The strangely guided letter broke his
hardened spirit. and he Immediately
wrote to his mother in passion of re-
morse.
IF | get out of this war alive" he
told her, Il will come right home, and
make up in the future for all the trou-
bic l have made you and father suffer"
War, like every other dark dispense
ton, has it's bright episodes, and the
agitation it creates now and then I'M
covers hidden joy in an old sorrow

Train No. 8, the west bound limited,
one of the finest trains on the Wabash
Railway, was wrecked at Cass, nine miles
east of Peru, Ind, at 1890 Wednesday
morning by jumping the track and plung-
ing down forty-foot embankment. Four
teen bodies, all of Italian immigrants on
the way to Colorado, were taken from the
wreck, and about fifty persons are injur-
ed /
Train No. is one of the oldest and
one Of the finest of the limited Of the
i Wabash. From Peru west it is made up
of two sections-one from Detroit and
the other from Toledo-and consists Of
ten cars. With combined baggage car
and express, one combination, one day,
one emlgrant, three chair cars, three
sleepers and the private car of the gem
eral superintendent Of the Iron Mountain
SYSTEM William Cotton. The train was
one hour late and was making up lost
time. While on a sharp curve, running
fully sixty miles an hour, the engine
struck a weakened culvert, derailing it
self, plunged down the embankment The
express car and the first chair car tele-
scoped themselves, while the emigrant
car in the lead, and, followed by two
chalr cars, went down on the left side
of the track. The first sleeper Of tho
train was badly crushed and twisted,
standing with its forward and hind trucks
one on each end of the embankments.
The sleeper following was twisted and
the windows crushed in both ends. The
trucks were torn from under the car,
but no one in either sleeper was injur-
ed. Only the last sleeper and the private
car of the Iron Mountain remained on the
track uninjured.
At the foot of the embankment, so
steep that it could hardly be climbed,
crushed and jumbled in mass, with two
chair cars on the top of the emigrant
car, was where the deaths occurred.
There was no warning, simply a concus-
sion, a grinding sound, then a plunge to
death below

and decided that this condition could not
be fulfilled, and a notice of suspension
was at once posted on the door.
Only two days previous $9S3,0OO in
cash was paid into the bank in one lump
by Gen Samuel Thomas, to enable it to
meet a sudden demand on it, and incl
dentally to secure the presidency for his
son, E. r. Thomas, but that was not
enough to save it.
Thursday, after a slight run, the dlrec-
tors found they would have to meet
checks to the amount of $644, OCO, which
were in the clearing house, and this help
ed them to their conclusion to close the
doors at once, although they said they
could have paid the debit balance. The
desire not to be in the position of ac-
cepting deposits in a bank that might be
insolvent also FASTENED their action.
The banks failure hardly made rip
pie in all street. There was short
furry on the stock exchange, with quick
recovery. Rumors that other banks
were involved were quickly put at rest.
The closed institution is the one popu-
larly known as Perry Heath's bank, that
