Waycross,' Ga, Sept. 24.-Dr. ]. M.
Spence, representative from Ware
county, who was seriously stabbed
yesterday by his political opponent, ].
r. Mcdonald, is resting easily to-day,
and it is likely that he will recover,
though his injuries are considered very
dangerous.
The account of an eye witness to
the fight is as follows: DR.. Spence,
accompanied by William Mullis, called
Mcdonald out of his field and demand
ed that he sign certain affidavit. Nc
Donald refused, and Spence drew his
pistol and placing it near McDonald's
head, told him he would blow out his
brains unless the paper was signed.
Mcdonald seized the pistol, and at the
same time commenced stabbing Spence.
Spence claims that Mullis held him, but
Mcdonald denies that Mullis had any
part in the fight. While the row was
in progress, Charles Rigdon, went in
to McDonald's house and secured a
shotgun for Mcdonald, but the wea-
pom was not used.
Mcdonald was in town this morning
and announced that he is still an in
dependent candidate for the Legislature
against Spence, the Democratic nomi-
nee. The paper which il is said Spence
demanded of Mcdonald to sign, reads
as follows:
Notice to the public: I do certify
that l have printed and published
against j. NJ. Spence malicious and
unrighteous lies, and take this method
of correcting the same"

LIKE A FLASH
Came a Hard Knock from Gomez


It's a simple matter to satisfy SEN
sible, thinking people by a 10 days
trial of Postum in place of coffee, for
if it is coffee causes the illness an
almost immediate change takes place.
The old coffee ails, sluggishness. in
somnia. lack of energy, stomach
troubles, sallow skin, headaches, and
all the others, whatsoever form the
nerves decide upon, when they are
thrown out of balance by coffee, be-

them all and bring back health.

A ROW OVER MARKS.
Conservative Candidate Finds Bit
ter Opposition.

Conservative Candidate Finds Bit
ter Opposition.
London, Sept. 24.-An extraordinary
and quite unusual element has been
introduced into English politics in con-
nection with the candidacy of Harry
Marks in the pending by-election in
the Isle of Thanet. Mr.. Marks, who
from 1871 to 1883 was a newspaper man
in New York, and who now is the
wealthy chief owner of the Financial
News of this city, has been adopted
by the local Conservative association
as their candidate. This action caus-
ed disagreement, several prominent
local Conservatives refusing to sup
port him on account of his failure in
1890 in a criminal libel action. which
he brought against man who cir
culated various charges.
The London Times on Thursday
broke away from party ties and de-
clared it was better for the govern
ment to lose a seat than be associated
in the cause of unionism with a man
who gives no public, adequate refuta-
tion of such charges as have been pub
licly made against Marks"
The Times unusual action in advis-
ing the Conservatives to vote against
the government candidate on such
grounds created sensation.
Marks retorted with bit
ter personal attack on the Times
and Mr.. Walter, its proprietor, de-
claring that the aspersions on his hon.
or were entirely due to the alleged ex-
posture by the Financial News of the
dishonest methods" employed in the
sale of the Times edition of the En-
cyclopedia Britannica.

Relief Was Hurried.
No. II was heavy train. carrying
two Pullmans, two day coaches and
mail and baggage car. No. Is was
a light local train. The greatest loss
Of life occurred in the eastbound
train, while in the westbound train
only the engine crew were killed.
Relief trains were dispatched from
Knoxville within an hour and all ply
sicians in the vicinity Of the wreck
were doing what they could when the
local corps arrived. The first train
arrived here from the scene at 4:2O
o'clock, bringing about seventy of the
injured. Six of the injured aboard
had died while en- route to the city
and their bodies were taken off and
the train proceeded to point near the
general hospital, where vehicles were
in waiting and a large force of physi-
clans were ready to receive the wound
ed.
The next train from the wreck ar
rived shortly after 8 o'clock. 1t
brought the bodies of forty-t three dead.
Horrible Sight witnessed.
John w. Brown of Rogersville. Tenn,
a newspaper editor, was in the rear
coach of the westbound train. When
the fearful jolt came, he said, all the
seats in the car were torn loose and
people and seats were hurled to the
front end of the car. When he recov-
cred from the shock he heard the
screams and groans of the injured and
dying in every direction.
IT left. the car" said Mr.. Brown,
"as soon as l could and walked to
the main part of the wreck. 1t was
the most horrible sight I ever wit
messed. 1 saw woman pinioned by
piece of split timber, which had
gone completely through her body. A
little child, quivering in deaths agony.
lay beneath the woman. 1 saw the
child die and within few feet of
her lay a woman's head, while the
decapitated body was several feet
away.
Another little girl. whose body was
fearfully msngled. was calling for her
mother. 1 have since learned that she
was Lucille Conner of Knoxville, and
that both her parents were killed.
II heard one woman, terribly man
gled. praying earnestly to be spared
for her children. but death relieved her
sufferings in a few minutes.
Both engines and all of the coaches
of No. Is were literally demolished,
the smoker and baggage car COM
pletely so. The sleepers remained on
the track unchanged. Both engines
lay to the north of the track, damned
together into one mass of indescribable
ruins. The cars which were demol-
ished were piled on the wrecked en-
gines."
Congressman GibsOn's Escape.
Congressman Henry r. Gibson, from
the Second Congressional district Of
Tennessee was a passenger in the day
coach OF the eastbound train. He and
one other man, whose name is not
known, were the only persons to es-
cape alive from their demolished car.
