Providence, R. T., Aug. 31.-The
Grand circuit meeting at Narragan-
sett park was brought to close in
the proverbial blaze of glory. Dan
Patch, the unbeaten son of Joe
Patchen, paced an exhibition mile in
1:59H, reducing his record from
2:0OZ. The mile was within quar-
ter of a second of the worlds record
of 1894, made by Star Pointer at
Readville, five years ago. This is the
fastest mile in harness in half a
decade, and Dan Patch is the second
horse to beat two minutes. No other
horse except Star Pointer ever went
so fast and he did it only twice. Star
Pointer also went once in 1894, so
this is the third time horse ever
beat two minutes.

SIDED WITH STRIKERS.
Soldiers Used Their Influence to Persuade
Workers to Quit-Hsrkships Endured
by the Strikers' Families.

Parkersburg, W. Va, Sept An
unexpected situation has resulted
from the ordering out of the national
guard to preserve order in the coal
fields. The soldiers, whose sympathy
was all with the strikers from the
first, have used their influence with
the men who are at work and have
persuaded so many of them to join
in the strike that the detachment
stationed at Rush Run had to be re-
called and sent to another point to
keep it from emptying the mine.
Hundreds of families were sleep
ing last night under the skies. 1t is
estimated that over 1000 families
have been evicted in the New River
valley and most of them had no
place to go. Some had friends and
secured shelter, but the majority are
homeless, without even so much as
a tent to shelter them, and there is
talk of a subscription to buy tents
for them. Food is scarce with them
and the condition of the men is pitt
able it the extreme. Some of the
soldiers have even shared their food

Owatonna, Mimi, Sept. 1.-The

that has happened in this section of
the state. Three are dead, four are
fatally injured and "a others received
injuries, some of them of serious
character. Investigation shows that
the storm which wrought such dam
age to the train was but 100 feet in
width. From all reports it is evident
that the engine escaped the fury
of the tornado by but few feet,
for it remained standing on the
track, while the six coaches in the
train were picked up as if they were
feathers and rolled over and down
the steep embankment. Four of the
coaches caught the full fury of the
storm and were carried much fur

brought in that he was riddled with
bullets. When nearing the outer
edge of the crowd of spectators he
was seen to thrown up his hands and
throw off the moose and was through
the crowd and away before those
holding the rope realized what had
happened. The lynching party at
once pursued him, firing a volley of
shots, one of which struck an on
locker in the arm. Wilson staggered
and fell, but arose and ran into a
yard, making good his escape. AS
soon as day broke parties began to
scour the country and Wilson was
soon run to cover and captured. He
was lodged in the Chester Jail. His
condition is critical.
