DEPOT BURNED.
Mexico Passenger Station
Goes up In Smoke.

The passenger depot for the Wa
bash and G. & A. caught fire at
4:30 last Saturday morning and in
a short while was utterly destroy
ed.
The first alarm people heard
was from an engine on the tracks
loudly screaming out one whistle
after another, as tho endeavOring
to scare something from the
track. The waterwOrks engine,
south of town, began to whistle
also, aud then the alarm by the
bell at the city hall. But the fire
company arrived too late to be of
much service.
1t seems that the fire caught in
the express room at the west end
Of the building, but just how, it is
not known, perhaps from an elec-
trio wire. The building was old
and on the inside it was as dry as
a powder horn and in almost an
instant the whole structure was
afame.
The passenger baggage was all
saved, but much express matter
was lost, as well as a great deal of
the contents in the ticket room.
The whole loss is estimated at
about So, 900.
In two or three hours ticket Of
fees and telegraph station had
been installed on the north side of
the track, in the dining room of
Hoxsey's restaurant.

A hobo lighted a match in II M.

John f. Calvin, postmaster at
Saverton, issued money orders but
didn't have the collateral to back
them and Uncle Sam has him un-
der arrest.
1t is thought that the attorneys
for DR.. Jones Watson, lying in
the New London Jail charged with
the murder of his wife, do not be-
lieve in the theory of the prosecu-
ton of morphine poisoning of Mrs.
Watson and purpose to explode it
by the move they instigated last
week in having the visica urinaria,
bladder, sent to Ann Arbor, Mich. ,
for examination by a thoro toxi-
cologist. To this thought the
Times adds; The defense has
never attached any import to the
hypothesis that Mrs. Watson met
her death by morphine poisoning,
knowing it to be practically i'm
possible for one to die of morphine,
no matter how great the quantity
taken, in less than six to eight
hours, and from the time Mrs.
Watson was seen alive and well
up to the time her body was dis
covered in the river, only a period
of two or three hours elapsed. The
case really becomes more compli-
Gated with each succeeding move
on either side.

Prof. Dunning stated that Amer
lea was threatened with ia down
fall because of her tending to
aristoeracy and autocracy, forsak-
ing the paths of popular govern
ment.
The imperialistic tendencies of
the country received a thrust from
eminentthe scholar.
After stating that America, like
other great nations, was placing
her finger in the affairs outside of
herself and asserting a domineer-
ing force, he said:
What is the meaning of this
new imperialism Is there any
thing in it really newl Is it any
different from the imperialism of
Athens in the days of Pericles, or
the Imperialism of Rome when Ju-
llus Caesar took the helm? Has il
for its underlying principles any
thing different from that of Machi-
aVelIl, that no state, whether mon
archie or popular, can live a peace
tui and quiet life, but each must
either conquer or be conqueredf"
