again he approached DR.. Sloggett on the
subject. Il can work." he said, land
If my wife and family come here / Will
work and support them, but If they
don't come ! won't work"
The lepers wife and children are in
Honolulu, and have no faint of leprosy.
DIR. Sloggett suggested to the petitioner
that he was a very selfish father. in
wanting his wife. and especially his
children, to come to the settlement,
where they were very likely to get the
disease that he had. This was a sort
of side argument when the fact that
the rules OF the board did not allow
families to come under such conditions
did not seem to impress the petitioner.
why shouldn't they come If they
are willing to Gomez" asked the leper.
No amount of argument could convince
him that it was anything but right that
his non-leprous wife and four children
should come to reside in the dreadful
place to which disease had condemned
him for life.
The James Makee left Honolulu short
ly after nine o'clock on Friday evening
and arrived at the settlement at half
past seven Saturday morning. Return
ing she left at three in the afternoon,
entering the harbor at Honolulu a few
minutes past eleven. The weather was
very fine, and the trip was a most
pleasant one. DR.. Pratt's arrangements
for the guests of the Board were most
excellent and Captain Tullett did the
honors of the steamer with great credit.

stated that the matter had already

action.

The DUBUQUE and Vinton.

Dubuque, Aug. IA meeting of the
directors of the Dubuque, Vinton e
Southwestern Railway Company was
held yesterday afternoon in the office of
Secretary McVan, of the Business Mems
League. Mai. w. H. Day, who presided,
spoke of the outlook of the enterprise,
saying that necessarily any efforts to in
crease Dubuque railroad facilities would
be attended with difficulties, but he
hoped that by earnest effort they might
be overcome. The encouragement the
enterprise has so far received indicated,
he said, that success would be achieved
in the end. Then followed discussion
o. the outlets from Dubuque for the pur-
pose of determining which is the best to
adopt The matter was disposed by dele
eating the power of selecting course to
the executive committee. The tenor Of
several letters received by the executive
committee indicates that much interest
is bling taken in the proposed road.
On motion of Mr.. j. w. Conchar an
executive committee of nine was ap-
pointed to act with the president in
carrying the project forward. This
committee consists of w. H. Day, chair
man: d. d. Myers. B. w. Lacy, ]. II.

cENTRAL MAY CONTROL lT.
Rumor That the illinois csntrsl Will

Operats the D. M, !. e. = N.
Waterloo, Aug. There is rumor
among the trainmen here that the rail-
road that is now being built from Iowa
Falls to Des Moines will be controlled
by the Illinois Central. To substantiate
their statements the trainmen say that
nearly all the road that has been built
out of Iowa Falls has been laid by lllt-
nois Central employees and work train
stationed at and near Iowa Falls is
chiefly employed in handling material
for the new road. It has long been
known that the Central would like to
have connections with southern and
central Iowa. but for a long time there
has been good prospects of obtaining the
Iowa Central which would practically
serve this purpose, but as this deal has
failed to materialize, arrangements were
made for the building Of the new line.
1t is being built thru rich farming
country, nearly bisecting the angle
formed by the c. G. w. and Northwest
ern and which, as yet, has very poor
railroad connections with the outside
Illinois Central officials when asked in
regard to the matter, stated that the
trade connections between the new line
and the Central must necessarily be
very close, but that as yet nothing had
been done by the latter to secure control
of it. All the lines Of the Central that
have been built in this same manner
on account of the stipulations of the
charter Of the Central which only allows
1t to own and control limited amount
of line. To avoid this barrier, the lines
are built by companies under different
name and are absorbed By the Central
by leasing them for a period Of years,
usually ninety-nine.

supposed that he attempted to board an
outgoing Rock Island train. which left
Pueblo about 3 o'clock, and that in SO
doing he was drawn under the train and
run over, being instantly killed. His
legs were nearly severed frora his body
ard he was terribly mangled, tho his

DASHED THRU THE FLAMES.
Gravel Train Rushes Across Burning
Rridqe Near Fort Dodae.

Gravel Train Rushes Across Burning
Bridge Near Fort Dodge.
Fort Dodge. Aug. AT about 4
o'clock Monday afternoon the gravel
train No. "a. on the NJ. & st. L. road
made daring rush over burning
trestle this side of Kalo that threatened
to crash thru at any moment and let
train and crew drop to fearful death.
But the bridge was crossed in safety
and the engineer reported the same to
the railroad authorities in this city.
Two engines were dispatched to the
scene Immediately and served as odd
fire engines. squirting the water from
their tanks into the flames and rushing
back to the city to refill their tenders.
1t was necessary to send the Des
Moines passenger around over the Rock
Iisland tracks or delay 1t for an ex-
tended time. After forty feet Of the
sixty-five foot trestle had burned, the
fire was extinguished and the men i'm
mediately went to work to build a
temporary trestle. This is now COM
pleted and trains are running regularly.
The fire probably originated from an
engine shark
