five years, during which time he
proved himself "a man of sterling
worth and exceptional ability in his
calling. He takes up a new work
for the congregational society at
Marion, Indiana, with the new year.
The following letter picked up in
the street Tuesday explains itself:
"Dear May-The reason / didn't laff

Until few months ago ii a
widow of an old soldier married
again she wiped out her right to a
pension. The new law annuls this.
Now, If soldiers widow is re-
married and becomes a widow again,
II deserted wife or cannot be sup
ported by her husband, she is enti-
tied to a pension just as though she
had not been married after the death
of her soldier husband.
The Cinch club of this city, con
sisting of twelve young ladies, some
married and some not, and who meet
once week in friendly contest, will
meet tonight Thursday at the home
of Mrs. Frank Jeuck and watch the
incoming of the new year. For this
special occasion each member is per-
mitted to invite one other. That
they'll be royalty entertained and
have a good time there's no doubt.

COUNT JULIUS HAS AN
INTERESTING STORY
Says He Is Nephew OF Famous Russian
Genera and at One Time Had
Money to Burn.
SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.

Missoula, Jan. 28.-Count Julius Dear.
greneh has left this city and gone to
Butte. He paid up number Of bills be-
fore going away and said that he would
not come here any more
The count tells an interesting story. He
says that he is the nephew Of General
Skobilofi, the general who commanded the
Russian forces at PleYna Turkey during
the hght that took place there during the
Russina- Turko war.
General Skobiloff was one OF the great
est strategists of his time and upon his
death left a great fortune
The count says that he was left $aso,-
900 by his uncle. Shortly after he in
herited the money left by his uncle he
married a Jewish lady and as soon as he
did so the government con6scated his
property and forced him into exile. The
case was taken before the Washington au-
thorities and it will be heard at an inter-
national hearing in St. Petersburg in May.
The count says that he will be present
at the hearing. He does not say what has
become Of his wife.

KILLED AND SCORES INJURED
IN WRECK NEAR THE CITY OF THE OUAKERS

the train We were going at least 90 miles
AN hour when | felt terrific shock and
was thrown from my seat, as were all the
others in the car. The first shock was
followed by second almost as hard as the
first, and then we came to stop. there
were on each side OF our ear the split
halves Of another ear that we had literally
ploughed through. Before ! could get out
train from Philadelphia passed the wreck
Of our train and the one we had run into.
The wrccking was thrown back upon us
and caught fire"
Charles Herman said "1hc accident
occurred AT OBS p. m. Three persons in
eNtricably wedgcd in in the burning wood
slowly burned to death while the other pas.
sengcrs were unable 10 render them aid.
We then quickly tore the seats from the
ears, piled them mp against the wrcckng
and stToVe to rescue all the living we
could. Several OF the escapes were re
markable. Two men were sitting to-
Rethcr IN the same seat. One escaped with
only slight cut on the ear, the other be-
ing terribly manRled d. husband and wife
also sitting together, were thrown high in

CRASH CARRIES DEATH
TO MORE THAN A SCORE

They did not change, but it was too late
to stop and in an instant the crash came,
carrying death to more than a score
The scenes following the wreck were
unusually horrible because the cars we're
splintered almost to kindling wood. Hot
Goals from the engine box poured out and
the wood was soon burning iiercely. What
hope there had been of rescuing the
wounded in the last car of the local had
to be given up, as the flames spread and
undoubtedly some of the wounded, I'M
prisoned by the debris, were burned to
death.
Most of the passengers on the local on
which all those were killed were riding,
were well-to-do residents of Plainheld, N.
J., and nearby towns, who were returning
to their homes from their places of busi-
ness in New York
The stories of dreadful incidents accom-
panying the collision were numerous. The
engine that drew the express plowed half
way through the rear car of the local be-
fore II came to a standstill. Bodies were
crushed against the front of the locomo-
tive on the pilot and on the crown sheet
and could only be removed after the fire.
men had drenched the locomotive for two
hours and cooled off the plates.

rescue, made the following statement to-
day concerning Davis:

. These. they hold, are good arguments
in sunport Of llarney's defense that drunk
enness is merely failing and not a
wrong. II the examples are accepted
Harney is gerat man.
The peculiar condition OF affairs during
the trial of the case of Judge Benton
Leggat against the Butte Water company,
as testified to before the Judiciary com
mittee last evening. was the topic of con
versation among the members this morn
ing. In this case the strange spectacle
was presented of opposing counsel con
sulting and agreeing upon plan 10 keep
the trial court sober long enough to hear
the case.
Another feature of the testimony that is
causing the lawmakers to smile was the
boldness Of the president Of the United
Copper company, who, during the Minnie
Healy trial, took the judge out for lunch
at the noon recess and sent him back to
the bench intoxicated. The nerve of the
copper chief is being appreciated by those
who did not know before how he worked
things.

FRITZ CLAIMS HE HAS
BROKEN THE MAJORITY

The United Copper company claims that
it has broken the house majority in favor
OF impeachment. Followers of IIcinzc
assert that the representatives are taking
a different view OF the case and the plan
is to have them consider only the charges
of drunkenness and not those Of corrup-
tion.
Attorneys representing Mr.. Conner. the
introducer of the resolution, told the COM
mittee of the allegations made by Harney
against Stivers and Shores, accusing the
attorneys of attempted bribery, and charge
the judge with either having perjured him
self or entertained an offer to do a corrupt
act. While still denying the truth of the
allegations, they ask Judge Harney to ac-
cept either horn of the dilemma
If he listened to offers of bribery and
failed to take action against his tempters
he must have given their propositions
some consideration, and if he did not do
this then he has committed perjury.
