Louis Convention.
White Sulphur Springs, w. Va,
Aug. 1S.-Henry Gassaway Davis was
formally notified yesterday that he is
the nominee of the democratic party
for vice president of the United
States. Mr. Davis accepted the nomi-
nation in brief speech reviewing the
political situation, echOing the senti-

Representative John Sharp Will
liams, of Mississippi, chairman of the
notification committee of the st. Louis
convention, delivered the notification
address.
The ceremonies were held on the
lawn of the White Sulphur Springs
hotel, which affords a natural amphi-
theater, the ground sloping up from
the speakers stand on all sides and
sheltered by huge spreading oaks.
Hundreds of enthusiastic demo-
Gratis had assembled from the Vir-
ginias and bordering states, and heavy
train loads brought others from a dis
tance. Sturdy mountaineers came on
horseback, on foot and in wagons with
their families. The ceremonies were
marked with the utmost simplicity
The famous Stonewall Brigade band,
of Staunton, Va, organized by Gen.
Jackson, played stirring airs. A pretty
incident occurred at the conclusion of
the ceremonies, when II ladies from
Atlanta, Ga, all bearing the Georgia
state flag, came forward to congratu-

COLLISION At GRADE CROSSING
A TROLLEY TRAIN RAN INTO AN
EXPRESS TRAIN.
Four People Killed and 24 Injured at
Chicago - Brakes on Trolley
Train Refused to
Work.

Chicago, Aug. 1S.-Four people were
killed, another fatally hurt and % Sc
verely injured in a collision late We'd
nesday afternoon between an express
train on the Chicago Great Western
railroad and a train Of three trolley
cars bound for the Hawthorne race
track.
The accident occurred a. the cross
ing of Forty eighth avenue and the
Chicago Great Western tracks. The
train was coming into the city and ac-
cording to some witnesses of the acci-
dent, was running at a high rate of
speed Others and the train crew de
clare that it was not going over 20
miles an hour. The trolley train, which
was made up of motor car and two
trailers, in charge of Conductor w. II.
Condor and MOtOrman Michael Ryan,
approached the crossing at rapid
rate, just as the train came around
sharp curve west of the crossing.
Ryan put on the brakes with all his
strength, in the effort to stop his car,
but the brakes refused to work, and
with undiminished speed the motor
car ran up on the tracks at the same
time that the locomotive came up.
The car struck the train just be-
tween the engine and the tender. The
motor car was torn to splinters and the
car Immediately behind it was knock
ed over, smashed nearly to pieces and
dragged along the track for 100 feet.
The third car was not dragged from
the tracks, and but for the fact that
the couplings between it and the sec
ond trailer broke, the list Of injured
would probably be much larger, as all
of the cars were filed with passengers.
The motorman remained at his post
to the last and was fatally hurt, his
skull being fractured. To people who
came to aid him while he lay on the
ground, he said:
The brakes would not work. That
was what caused it. When | saw that
they would not work, | reversed the
current. Now get aside and be quiet
and | will be all right"
All the members of the Chicago
Great Western train crew and the
conductors of the trolley cars were
arrested pending the inquiry of the
coroner.

and made their escape from the jail
The men threw red pepper into Gard
ner's eyes and then beat him into in

keys and then overpowered Deputy

gained consciousness and, seizing an
other gun, circled around the jail to
head the men off as they appeared
above the courtyard wall. Shots were
exchanged, but without effect. The
men made their escape.

Morgan, iubilantly. "Of course you
Will go, Mr.. Bernardo"
"Of course, :" insisted Mr.. Morgan.
"Of course" insisted Mr.. Bernard,
laughing.
The sunshine fell brilliantly upon
the sea, kissing the waves that dashed
the base of Fisherman's Point into a
spray of diamonds. Above, the sky
arched, a blue canopy. The air. tenn
Dered by the salt moisture, was cool
ard pleasant.
The three, in Clark Morgan's sail
boat, anchored just off the Point,
fished and laughed and were jolly.
And Morgan was the merriest of them
all. The others were kept laughing at
his witticisms.
He had his kodak with him, and he
took several shots at the rocks, the
gently swelling waves, and at the only
boat that passed during the afternoon.
When the tide began rising, Morgan
was the first to note the slowly up
ward creeping of the sea upon the
rocks A smile trembled upon his lips
and a strange fire burned in his eyes.
From the locker of the boat he pro-
duced a bottle of champagne, and,
pouring out three glasses, handed one
each to his wife and Bernard. Then,
raising his own, he said:
Here is to Love that is true,
Here is to Honor, that's real.
Love and Honor and you--
A trinity stamped with Gods seal"
He touched the glass to his lips, but
the others, astounded, hesitated.
Why don't you drink" he cried:
why don't you drink to love and
honor-the twin stars in life's diadem?
No other virtues are so blessed or SO
rare as love and honor!"
The words were spoken as though in
pleasantly Not the suspicion OF
sneer accompanied them; not a spark
from the fire that was consuming his
soul, was visible
So, together, they drank the toast,
and when they had finished, Morgan
broke his glass upon the boats rail
and watched the pieces sink into the
sea.
The tide was now rising rapidly.
Already the lowest crevices on Fisher
mans Point were under water.
Suddenly Clark Morgan glanced at
his wife. My dear" he said, Il was
thinking what a beautiful picture l
could take if you and Bernard would
pose for me a moment on the rocks
you, kneeling in your white gown. my
dear, and Bernard, in this robe, hold
ing this cruiciiX in his hand, with the
waves all but kissing your feet and
the broad sea in The background"
AS he spoke, he unrolled a package
he had taken, with the champagne,
from the locker, and now held up a
priests robe and beads.
'Bravo" cried Bernard, enthusias-
tically. you are a thorough artist,
| Clark; it is a splendid conception"

In a court case it was claimed that
man tried to fool his wife by pretending
tba' he was intoxicated, That is new
one Many men, however, have tried tc
fool their wives by pretending that they
were strictly sober.
Cameron County press. [volume] (Emporium, Cameron County, Pa.) 1866-1922, 1904-08-25

"See, my dear he said, the tide is
nearly to where We stand. Now kneel
right here, your hands clasped SO, and
your eyes turned upward, so; that's
right. Now, Bernard, hold the cruci-
fix there, that's right; ah, that's per-
feet. Throw your head back little
more Gertrude, so your hair will fall
over your shoulders more there Now,
II sail away from the rock a few rods,
so as to get a better focus. All, this
is going to be one of the triumphs of
my life"
Talking cheerily as he clambered
over the rocks. Morgan descended to
the boat and hoisted sail Twenty
yards from the Point he put the helm
about, and the boat turned its bow
gracefully towards the far away shore.
A light breeze was blowing land
ward and before this he slowly sailed,
making no pretense to check his
course.
After 10 minutes or so, he glanced
back at the man and woman on the
rocks. His wife had risen to her feet
and stood with her face towards him.
He could see the startled look in her
eyes.
He waved his hand at them. Be
hold" he cried, purity and godiness
upon granite pinnacle!"
A half hour passed before he again
looked back. Gertrude and Bernard
were standing upon the topmost point
of rock, and the tide was nearly at
their feet. With the aid of his glass he
could see the look of horror on the
wOman's face and the desperation in
the eyes of the man.
His wifes hair was shining wet with
the dashing spray, and tears glistened
upon her cheeks.
Then the twilight deepened, deep
ened, and finally Fisherman's Point
was but an indistinct dot upon the
horizon, with miles of foaming sea on
every side.
But, in his drifting boat, Clark Nor
gan sat and watched Fishermans
Point through his glass. He saw the
man clasp the woman in his arms; he
saw the woman put her hands to her
eyes as though TO shut out the sight
watched the tide rise to their knees,
to their waists, to their shoulders
then the darkness became 80 heavy he
could not longer distinguish them
rom the spray.
From the locker he took another
bottle Of champagne. Filling a glass
with the sparkling liquid, he extended
it toward the dense gloom that en-
shrouded the Point and cried:
Here is to Love that is true;
Here is to Honor that's real.
Love and Honor and you
A trinity"
During the night a sail boat drifted
upon the mud banks, where fishermen
found it. In the bottom was the dead
body of a man.
Heart disease" pronounced the
learned coroner, solemnly.
In a court case it was claimed that
man tried to fool his wife by pretending

Lawrence Gazette: The Topeka
Capital, in an editorial. says that the
total income of the Kansas State Uni
versity probably does not exceed
$3.50. 900 a year. The total resources
Of the University are about $l97,OOO.
The Kansas State University does
more and better work ON the money
it has to spend than does any other
state institution Of it's class In the
country. Measured by the wealth OF
the state, the intelligence Of Its peo-
pie and the needs Of the young men
and women who are growing up, the
institution should have double the
money it receives. Kansas is able to
support its State University In as
good form as any western state, and
that we do not do it 10 not to our
credit. 1t is to be hoped that the
next legislature will spend less on
useless clerks and gratis. and apply
the savings to the support Of the edu-
cational institutions.

decisions are Of much interest and

much attention throughout the state
and particularly in this district whore

The old soldier law provides that
in making appointments the prefer

Goodrich 10 an old soldier; Mitchell Is
not. In Supplying for rssppointment
Goodrich urged his claim under the
old soldier preference consideration.
After Mitchell's appointment, Good
rich brought g quo warrsnto suit 10
the supreme court to Dust him. An
agreed statement Of facts was sub
mitted by the attorneys 10 which II
was stated that the two men were
equally qualified for the position Il
was this statement that cost Mitchell
