No person able to contribute should
fail TO put his name down for sub
scription 10 the Peabody Military
band. Heretofore the concerts by this
musical Aggregation have been lead
ing attractions in Canon City during
the summer months, and no one
wishes to be deprived of the pleasure
thus derievd this summer. IL is n
duty the citizens owe the band boys
for their faithful work in the past
and duty that is owing the city TO
maintain 80 creditable band. Few
cities can boast of so good an organi-
zation of musicians as are to be found
in Canon's band, and it should not be
permitted to lag for want of popular
interest in its welfare.

An American Insults a King by
Calling Him a Niger.
London, Aug. 27.-Lenwanika, king
of Baronseland In South Africa, who
came to London to attend King Ed
wards coronation, had an unpleasant
experience before sailing yesterday.
An American, who did not know him,
alluded to him at the dock as a mig
ger" saying he wanted to know who
that "nigger" was.
Lewanika heard the expression and
was very indignant. He sent one of his
attendants to ask the American to apol.
ogize.
The latter refused, contemptuously
saying that "all coons looked alike to
him, whether they were kings or boot
blacks"
Lewanika was hurried on board the
steamer and further trouble averted.

A Storm Had Been Raging During
the Night and
BIG TREE BLOWN ACROSS TRACK.
None of tho Passengers Were Hurt,
Badly Shaken Up.

Special to the Daily Progress.
jackson, Aug. 28.-The west bound
Alabama and Vicksburg passenger
train was wrecked three miles from
Jackson this morning shortly before
daylight.
A violent storm had been raging
during the night and large tree was
blown across the track.
Sam BrunstOn, the negro fireman,
was instantly killed. John Jones,
the engineer, received injuries that
will probably prove fatal. None of
the passengers were hurt. The en-
gineer stuck to his post and was
found seated IN his cab after the
crash.
Engineer Jones was raised in this
city where he got the job of firing the
switch engine years ago while he was
quite young. He is yet a young
man, not over thirty years of age,
and is considered one of the most
careful engineers on the road.

PHILIPPINE ISLANDS SHAKEN
BY A SEVERE EARTHQUAKE.

woman he lived with in Jackson and
introduced as his wife.
Wife No. says she had lived with
Mcdonald for twenty years, knowing
all the time that he was marrying
other women whenever he had a
chance, always selecting some young,
ignorant country girl for his victim.
She entertained hopes of some day
reforming him, but after eighteen
years of neglect on his part she de-
termined to put stop to his career,
and some three months ago employed
Detective Johnson to work up a case
against him.
Mcdonald led the officers a merry
chase for more than six weeks but
was finally captured.
McDoaald entertains hope of being
acquitted on the ground that the
license was not issued by the clerk,
and that his full name is not signed
to the same, and that the worst he
can get Is three months for cohabi-
tation. The penalty for blgamy in
this state is not less than five years
at hard labor IN the penitentiary, and
this fact seems to disturb the accused
considerably.
Mcdonald is a native of this state,
having been born and reared at Pass
Christian, and is 43 years old.
He is fine looking man, weighing
about 200 pounds, and we'll proper
toned. He has an easy, soft way of
talking that gains the sympathy of
all who come in contact with him.

PETITION FOR PARDON.

To his Excellency, Governor A. 81. Lon
gino, Governor of the State of Missis-
sippi:
We, the undersigned citizens of Perry
county, Mississippi, and vicinity, re-
spectfully petition your excellency to
pardon Isham Boothe. convicted of
arson at the October, 1901, term of the
circuit court of the second judicial dis
trict Of the county of Perry, state Of
Mississippi, and sentenced to q term of
five years in the penitentiery, for the
causes set out below
First. Because his conviction rests
almost entirely upon circumstanrial
evidence of an indefinite, unreliable and
misleading character, uron which we do
not believe a conviction should be al
lowed to stand;
Second. The principal state witness,
Will Lang, is wholly unreliable and
unworthy of belief, and but for his evil
dence, we do not believe o conviction
would have been permitted to stand;
Third. We believe, rs q matter OF
fact, that the said defendant is innocent
of said charge and was enormously con-
victed, because of testimony unworthy
of belief (not criticislng court Or jury)
| and
Fourth. We believe, that although
the defendant were guilty, the ends o
justice have been net,-that he is re
formed and will make a law-abiding
citizen from this time forward; and W,
believe his record in the penitentiar,
will corroberate this view.

Disturbance Occurred in
Section of MindanaO.
TWENTY NATIVES WERE KILLED,
BY Falling Walls-American Sol
dierS in the Islands Escape
Without Injury.

Washington, Aug. N,-The war de-
partment today received a cablegram
from General Chaffee at Manila, re-
porting the occurrence of series of
earthquakes on the island OF Min
danae. Twenty persons were killed
by falling walls, the victims all being
Moros.
The Americans in the vicinity
escaped, and the dispatch says there
were no reports that any of the SOL
diers in that portion of the island
affected sustained any injuries.
The upheavel occurred in the coun-
try adjacent to the lake of Lanao, in
the Moro section of the island, near
Camp Vlckers, which is now the
headquarters of the American forces
stationed in Mindanao.
General Chaffee's cablegram says
the mountains and rivers and other
streams were considerably disturbed
and .much damage was done. The
extent of the damage, however, was
not reported.
It is presumed here that the seis-
mic shocks occurred about five days
ago, though the date is not mem
toned in the dispatch.
This is the first serious earthquake e
reported from that country during
American occupation of the Philip
pines. The most important previous
seismic disturbance in Mandanao
was the one that partly destroyed
Palak, Keota-Batu and the village
on the banks of the river Mandanao
in 1872. This phenomenon closely
followed the eruption of the volcano
of Makaturin.
General Chaffee also cables that
the military situation in that section
remains quiet and unchanged.
