Famous Building and Painting De-
strOyed,

!
The historic old structure on Madeline
Island, Lake Superior, off the northern
shore of Wisconsin, know n as Pere Mar
quette's church, was destroyed by fire
Friday morning. There is some doubt
as to the origin of the famous building,
but it is claimed, and generally believed,
that it was built by the famous mission
airy explorer, when he went to that
region in 1869. For years it has been
one of the features of that section and
was visited by many tourists. During
recent years Protestants have endeavor-
ed to prove that the connection of the
building with Pere Marquette, was only
tradition, but they have never secured
much evidence to substantiate their
claim. The old structure was covered
some years ago by new frame building
for protection. Hardly second to the
loss of the church, was the destruction of
painting by Rubens representing the
descent from the cross, which was pre-.
scented to Marquette about the year
1860 by Pope Alexander VII.
The announcement is made that Miss
Mary French Field, daughter of the late
Eugene Field, the poet, is to marry Will
liam c. Engler, of Maryland, next fall,
Miss Field, who is familiarly called
Throttle" by her intimates, lives in Chi
cago. When her father died, five years
ago, she took up public reading as a
means Of livelihood, and was especially
successful in presenting the writings of
her father. Mr.. Engler, whom she is to
marry, is native of Frederick county,
Md, and holds place as secretary of
one OF the big manufacturing concerns in
Chicago.
The presentation of a suit of Eliza
bethan armor to King Edward VII last
week marked the curious revival of an
ancient custom. 1t was armor once
worn by a champion of royalty, who rode
fully equipped to Westminster Hall and
threw his gauntlet on the floor as chal-
lenge to combat. The armor was used
at the coronation of George ", and was
not exhibited during the Victorian reign.
The College of Heralds hunted for it, and
the Duke of Marlborough presented it to
the King.

A Hopeful View of the Strikes.

Mr.. Carroll D. Wright, of the Ma
tional Labor bureau, has observed
and studied the various causes and
DEVELOPMENTS of labor troubles prob
ably as fully and impartially as any
man in the United States.
1t is gratifying that his investiga-
tions of this subject have led him to
take very hopeful view of the future
of labor in its relations to capital.
In a recent address he said: 81 be-
lieye that strikes as 4 method Of secur-
ing recognition will not go out of fash
ion. and that the method of reasoning
as applied through the principles Of
private or Joint Cancellation commit
tees will take their place. -
Mr.. Wright believes that the differ
ences between labor and capital Will
in the future be settled more frequent
" than ever before by arbitration and
Cancellation.
There are many reasons why this
should be so. The most influential
labor leaders are men of large lntelli-
gence and are taking broader views
of the relative rights and the mutual
interests of employer and employed.
They are studying economical and in
dustrial questions.
The same tendency to look at both
SIDES of the question is observable
among employers.
Mr.. Wright urges that the greatest
hope of success for organized labor lies
In it's strict observance Of the law and
due regard to the rights of property.
He comedies that labor organizations
have been of immense benefit to work
ingmen, and will, if properly conduct
ed, become much more powerful for
the protection of their rights and the
promotion of their interests.
Tie discussion Of labor problems IS
to be encouraged among both capital
lists and wage-earners. Out OF full
and fair consideration of these cues
tions in all their bearing will come
broader views and a more conciliatory
spirit, and consequently further re-
moval from strikes with their damag-
ing effects upon both parties and the
general community. Journal.

WRECK ON the sAATE Fl.
A Scene of Confusion and Horror
Among the Wreckage.

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. 20.-A Iatal
wreck occurred on the Santa Fe Rail
road. one mile west of Francon!lla'
Arizonia, switch station ~ miles
east of Needles, Cal, early TODAY.
Seven trainmen were killed three pas
sengers and IA trainmen Injured,
limited trains, bound eastward and
westward. crushed together while
running at full speed.
The eastbound train was drawn by z
engines. while the west bound tram
had but one locomotive. The trains
we're crushed and blown to pieces by
an explosion which followed the col
lision. Both trains were made up oI
vestibule cars of the heaviest KIND
and while they stood the terrific shock
we'll and protected the passengers to
a great extent, several of cars TOOK
fire at once and burned up. The
dining cars, one in each train, one
Pullman and two composite cars were
destroyed.
The collision is said to have been
due to a disregard of orders by the
crew of the west bound train, though
full particulars on this point are as
vet lacking. From all accounts, how
ever, it is gathered that the east
bound train had orders to take the
siding at Franconia and await the
passing of the west bound flyer, which
was running two hours late, and try
ing to make up time. The east bound
train failed to reach the siding, and as
the west bound train did not wait for
it. the two trains came together with
out warning and with an awful crash.
The boiler of the west bound engine is
said to have exploded Immediately after
the crash, scalding to death those OF
the engine crew who had not been
killed outright.

COLON CAPTURED BY LIBERALS.
Government Troops outnumbered
by the invaders.

Colon, Colombia, Nov. 20 (vSa Gal
yeston.-The Liberals made an unex-
pected attack on Colon at S O'Clock last
night. The government was not pre-
pared and there was little resistance.
After some fighting in front OF the
Quartet and on the corner OF the
streets for an hour and half, the
Liberals gained possession OF ali the
public Offices and the town OF Colon.
Guardia, the prefect, is a prisoner.
Twelve men were killed and about 81
were wounded.
On receipt of the news that Gen.
AIban, the military commander OF the
Isthmus, had started to attack the
Liberals at Chorrera. near Panama,
The latter detached 160 men, under
Gen. Patino. to attack Colon. This
force embarked on train bound from
Panama for Colon yesterday evening
at Last Cadas station, previously cut
ting off telegraphic communacatlona
across the isthmus. On arriving at
the outskirts of Colon, where tue gov 7l
ernment usually maintained a smaH
guard, the Liberals left the train and IN
she initial skirmish which began soon
after, Patino was killed. The com,
nand of the Liberals then deyoived
on Col. Frederico Barrera, and they
continued their march on Color, .arrlT-
INC there few minutes after th5 train,
tins surprising the whole town. The
government troops at Colon were out
numbered By the Liberals.
.EFighting Immediately began at the
a =, .,+nl .fba-racksl which was soon
taken. There Senor ,Jaen, a judge OF
the criminal court, was killed ana
Senior Muskus. the district represen-
sative Of the department OF state, was
mortally wounded. Fighting suose-
guently occurred at the town hall,
which was also taken by the Ii liberals.
Among the prisoners captured by the
Liberals there were the perfect, Guar
aia. and the commandante OF police.
Senor Paroles, the mayor, managed TO
reach the gunboat General Pinpon,
which sailed last night for destina-
tion unknown, probably Cartas.ena.
The whole affair was over IN less
than three hours. Communication
with Panama was restored today.
This revealed that no fighting had oc-
Cured there, that everything was
auiet and that the city was still in the
hands of the government. The issue
now depends on the result Of the fight
;ne which is doubtless now occurring
at Chorrera, news Of which is anxious
y awaited here The Liberals are
busy raising reinforcements locally.
They are reported to have several hun
dred men at different railroad stations
between here and Panama. The Uni

road stations and other property of the
road.

GREEK STUDENTS STAND FIRM.
In Possession of University and
Refuse to Give Up.

Athens, Nov. 22.-The turbulent
demonstrations here, growing out Of
the proposal to translate gospels into
modern Greek, were continued today
in the streets, especially in front of
the chamber of deputies, and before the
university. There were many ugly
rushes. The military are finding
difficulty in controlling the rioters.
The next meeting Of the chamber of
deputies today was marked by series
of violent alterations.
In the course Of the afternoon the
growing crowds and the increasing
excitement heralded the hour fixed for
the victims of the riots. The bulk of
the troops were confined to barracks.
The shops along the route were closed
by police orders. At o'clock the
cortege left the cathedral for the ceme-
terry, dense crowds following. The
seven cofins covered with white flags,
were preceded by students Carrying a
black banner.
The procession halted for some
minutes before the palace, but no
cries were raised. The populace
going to and returning from the ceme-
terry, maintained S1lCnC ana restrain
ed demeanor.
At the cemetery, Mr.. Levidis deliv-
cred an grafton, in the course of which
be attacked the government and de-
clared that the people ought to erect a
mausoleum over the victims of duty
and patriotism
The city resumed its normal aspect
as the evening wore on. The students,
however, still remain in Occupation of
the university. The rector: at the
head of 80 professors, endeavored to
persuade them to retire, but they
declined to comply unless given
guarantees that no legal proceedings
would be taken against them, that the
translators of the gospels would be ex-
communicated and that the university
would not be occupied by troops.

A Commission appointed TO Re-
lieve Government Officers.

Colon, Colombia, Nov. 21.-I'he city
of Colon was perfectly quiet all yester-
day and last night. It is claimed in
behalf of the Liberals that there has
been no unseemly behavior. Foreign
ers are being respected and protected,
and transit across the lsthlnus IS
uninterrupted.
The postofHce, all the other govern
nents Office and nearly all the CONNER
eiai houses were closed yesterday.
Col. Barrera, commander of the
Liberal forces, asserts that he has
notified the district representative Of
the department of the interior and
other former, officials of the govern
ment that he has appointed ascommls-
sion to take over their Offices formally,
TO-DAY. Senior Espriella, prominent
LAWYER and counsel for the Panama
railroad, is member of the commits
sion.
The feeling of the community cannot
be remarked as antagonistic to liber-
aiism. The existing conditions have
created no panic, but it is recognized
that the fact that the Liberals hold
Colon while the Conservatives are in
possession of Panama, creates state
of affairs which cannot possibly con-
tinue
Col. Bsrrera admits that the govern
ment troops here numbered a little less
than 120 men. It was at first report
eG that twelve or more had been killed
and that about 80 wounded, but the
bodies OF no more dead men have
since been discovered.
Gen. Aldana commands 200 Liberal
troops at Gatun railroad station,
about six miles from Colon.
The Liberals claim to be in posses
sion of all tee railroad stations be-

contemplated. Col. Barrera is await

taries Of the government held con-
