HAS A TERRIBLE WOUND

William Eagen, n Panhandle engi-
neer, residing at the corner Of North
Twelfth and \ streets, was the vic.
tim yesterday afternoon OF the mosE
remarkable accident that ever hap
pened on the Richmond division o.
that road.
At about , o'clock Easen lefe
Richmond in charge OF an engine
hauling train Of empty coaches
which were to be used III carrying
the Elwood delegation 10 Anderson.
for the Fairbanks meeting. As the
engine entered Greensboro, running
at rate of at least forty miles ar
hour, Eagen noticed large plank
protruding from an empty cattle car
which was standing on a siding.
Fearing that the plank might hi5
him, Egan rose from his seat at the
cab window and as he did so the
plank either tore its way through
the cab or entered the window. II
so doing the plank was broken and q.
jagged end entered the engineers
right hip. The splinter forced its
way up through the fleshy part thre-.
inches, then its course changed, pro
truding five inches in and fractur-
ing the pelvic bone. The speed thu
engine was going and the weight or
the plank pulled the splinter out Of
the unfortunate mans body. After
receiving the terrible wound Ega.s
grabbed the throttle and stopped ths
engine short way out of Greens
fork. He was taken to a physician
office at Greensboro and was brough.

to drain off. DIR. Weist SAYS that his
patient is in a critical condition, "a
there is possibility Of an abdomi-
nal injury or secondary inflammation
that would endanger the leg. The
hole in the hip where the splinter
entered Is about the size Of quar-
ter. DR. Weist says that in his fif-
teen years of experience as a rail
road surgeon this accident is the
most remarkable he has ever han
died. Egan is about ihirty-fiye
years Of age and during his career
as an engineer he has had severa.

Train Was Late But a Large Crowd
Waited Patiently to Give a Cor
dial Welcome.
Especial to the Palladium.)

L
Cambridge City, Ind, November 5
Owing to Il freight wreck near
Bradenburg Ky, the special train
bearing Senator Fairbanks did not
arrive here until 4 30 this afternoon.
though it was due at 1:15. Early in
the morning crowds began to arrive
In town to greet the vice presiden-
tial candidate and when 2:30 came
and no special put in an appearance
many became discouraged and re-
turned to their homes. However,
when the Senator finally arrived a
crowd numbering between five and
six hundred was patiently waiting
to receive him. Mr.. Fairbanks
spoke from the rear platform of his
special car for about five minutes
and at the conclusion Of his brief
address he was given a rousing ova-
tion. The senator said that this
fall he had travelled from ocean to
ocean and no place was he so pleas
ed with the receptions rendered him
as IN Indiana. his native State.
At 4:33 the special pulled out for
Newcastle. The wreck that occurred
this morning in Kentucky was
caused by two freiohts colliding. 1t

HON. JAMES E. WATSON
Addressed the Largest Meeting OF
Campaign at the Coliseum Last
Evening.

No one will ever be able to say
that the campaign OF 1904 closed IN
a listless fashion in Wayne coun-
ty. The closing meeting Of the Re
publicans at the Coliseum last night
was rousing one from start to lin
ish.
Congressman James f. Watson, OF
the sixth congressional district, adj
dressed a large audience at the Col
iseum and a more enthusiastic audi
ence woald not be cared for. The
address Gf Mr.. Watson was Won
derful ona. and he outlined the his
torv Of the Republican party FOR
years and compared it with the his
tory OF the Democrats for the same
period
After the parade had disbanded
last evening the Coliseum rapidly
filed up. The stage was filled with
the vice presidents of the meeting
and soon after s o'clock twelve
members of the Newcastle glee club
walked onto the stage and they re-
ceived generous amount OF APP
plause.
Mr.. Watson followed them and
was accompanied by A. Nj. Gardner,
chairman Of the county committee,
and w. C. Converse, chairman OF
last evenings meeting. The glee
club opened the evenings program
by giving a number OF campaign
dities. All of their songs were par
odies on the popular songs OF the
day and they did not miss any. One
Of the amusing parts OF this was the
antics of Joe Landwer, in rendering
song entitled: SECT on the Wa
gon,' Mr.. Landwer made quite a
hit with the audience. In u few well
put remarks Mr.. Converse introduce
ed Mr.. Watson to the meeting.
Mr.. Watson said Stupendous in
terests are involved in elections. IN
every election the country is arous-
ed. As each party seeks the support
of the people the questions that arise
in the minds of the people are: 'On
what do you base yor,r claims?' The
Republican party points TO its past
record and challenges the Democrat
ic party to meet it on that issue. A
party can not do everything TO make
country great: it can do great
deal in the development OF coun-
try. What have the Democrats ever
done in the development OF this
country They claim that. we do
not give God any credit for the work
he has done and that we always hap
pen to be on the side OF providence.
If that Is the cause for our success,
why do they not try to Use provl-
dence in their platforms. The uni
form success Of our party Is the.
it has always had the courage to O.
things that are right In 1896 the
national honor Of this country was
attacked by the Bryan Democracy.
They wished To put us on level
with Mexico and China on the
money question. In 1900 the same
party proposed that we should pull
down the old flag III the Philippines
and forget Dewey and Lawton. The
Democrats are advocating free trade.
