FATALLY WOUNDS HIS WIFE,
Herman Rossow Then Attempts to
Commit Suicide. .

NOnTnII SulCIQe.
La Crosse, Wis, Sept. 28.-An at
tempted murder and suicide occurred
at the German Lutheran church, cor
ner of Fifth and Cass streets, at the
beginning Of religious services Sun
day, when Herman Rossow shot his
wife and himself in the presence Of
hundreds of witnesses. 1t appears
certain that Mrs. Rossow will die,
while Rossow, though dangerously
wounded, may recover. Rossow, who
had been separated from his wife for
some time, lay in wait for her at a
livery barn opposite the church where
the tragedy occurred. Finally he saw
his wife with her mother, Mrs. Weiss,
approach and enter the church. He
rushed across the street and at the
door of the edifce drew revolver
from his pocket. He shot his wife
three times, every bullet entering the
back and passing completely through
the woman's body. At the door he
paused and, placing the revolver to
his feft side, fired at his own heart.
The bullet DETECTED slightly and enter
ed his side just below the heart.
Rossow was arrested and later taken
to a hospital Domestic trouble was
the cause of the shooting. Rossow is
thirty and his wife twenty-five years
old. They had been married three
years f-.@,5r yfc54 S{,f=sa,4z

How He Came to Contrive
.5:= 4. 5E& the Strange Ship. @ }x$5t t555

John K. Leedy, Dunkard preacher.
75i years Of age, native Of Rocking
ham county Virginia, is with doubt;
one OF the greatest believers in dreams
that ever lived. Through what he
claims to be a divine inspiration he has
been enabled to invent the ''Leedy un-.
sinkable ship" *g ::
81 Asked how he had come to contrive
the ship, Mr.. Leedy replied: +.
Several years ago, just after one Of
the big ocean liners loaded with human
freight went to the bottom of the At
lantic ocean and all on board we're
lost, had a dream. In this dream
/ talked with an angel. The messen-
ger of God painted a large picture of
ship and commanded me to set about
and construct such a vessel for the
good of mankind 80
L thought but little Of the dream
until two or three nights afterWard,
when the angel again appeared and
directed me to do as had been told,
and for a second time large picture
OF ship, which was to be my model,
was painted. I gave the matter more
serious thought on the following day,
and for several nights thereafter my
dreams We're of nothing but the. ship
I read my Bible and found certain pas
sages which told me I must get to-
work. The result Of my labors is what
will be known to the world as .Leedy's

The hull is comprised of an outer

posed of copper plates, soldered to-
gether, thus makingHit water and air
tight. Between the outer and inner
castings from short distance above the
lower deck there is placed filing Of
coal tar or some other suitable ma

two layers Of metal soldered together.

Between the ribs Of the vessel ana

On both sides Of the ship and out

Crew of. Sixteen Killed and the Other
Seven Injured Train Running At z
High Rate of Speed When the Dis.
aster Occurred.
Charlotte, NJ c., Sept. 2S.--While
running at a high rate Of speed, q fast
mail train on the Southern railway
Jumped from trestle seventy-five feet
high north of Danville, Va., Sunday
afternoon, and was almost demolished.
OF, the crew of sixteen men, including
mail carriers, nine were killed and
seven injured.
The dead are: Engineer J. A. Brodie,
Fireman Clarence White, Conductor
Tom Blair, Mail Clerks j. L.. Thomp-
son, w. T. Chambers, D. T. Flory, r.
N. Ardanwright, and a fagman and q
brakeman, names not known.
The injured are: Mail Clerks Louis
w. Spears, Frank E. Brooks, Percival
lndenmauer, Charles E. Reames, Jen-
nings ]. Dunlap, M. G. Maupin and j.
Harrison Thompson.
All of the injured men are seriously
hurt and have been taken to the hos
pital in Danville. The recovery of
Mail Clerk Spiers is not expected, and
other clerks are thought to be mortal
ay injured. ~
The trestle where the accident toc-
Cured is 500 feet long and is on a
sharp curve. Engineer Brodie was a
new man on that division of the
Southern, and thus came to the curve
at high rate of speed. H.. - &s}
The locomotive had gone only fifty
feet on the trestle when it sprang
from the track, carrying with it four
mail cars and an express car. The
trestle, wooden structure, also gave
way for a space of fifty feet.
Entire Train Destroyed.
At the foot of the trestle is a shall
low stream with rocky bottom.
Striking this, the locomotive and the
cars were reduced to mass of twist
ed iron and steel and pieces of splin-
tered wood. AS the cars went down
they touched the sides of the River
side cotton mill.
All the dead men were mutilated.
The skin and hair on. the engineer
and fireman were torn off by the boiler.
Several thousand people were soon
at the scene of the wreck. No one on
any of the cars had made an effort to
jump and the bodies Of all those
killed were found in the wreckage Of
the different cars to which they be-
longed. ~.
Women who drove to the wreck
from Danville tainted at the sight of
the mutilated bodies. II
All the express matter in the express
car was destroyed, except six crates
full of canary birds. None of the
birds were hurt, though the crates
were in the thickest of the debris. All
unoffici opinions say the cause of
the wreck was the high speed Of the
train on the sharp curve. ~,
The mail bags in all the mail cars
were torn open and the letters and
packages were scattered, but 1t is be-
Iieved none is lost. Fire which broke
ont in the wreckage shortly after the
accident was quickly extinguished by
the Danville fire department. -
On account Of the wreck, all traffic
.on the Central and Northern divisions
Dt the Southern will be delayed.
