TEN KILLED IN
RAILWAY WRECK
FIFTY OTHERS ARE INJURED
NEAR PlTTsBURc, PA.
SPECIALS CRASH TOGETHER.
First Train Carried Battalion of Ohio
Engineers, and Second Tippeca-
noe Club of Cleveland, En-
route to Inauguration.

Pittsburg, Pa, March 4.-In a rear
end collision shortly before midnight
between two special passenger trains
from Cleveland, on the Cleveland &
Pittsburg railroad, enroute to Wash.
ington, ten people were killed and
PROBABLY fifty others injured.
The accident happened at Clifton
station, eight miles west of here and
was caused by the first special stop
ping for a hot box, and the second
followed so closely that the fiagman
had not time to get back far enough
to prevent the collision.
The dead are:
CAPTAIN WILLIAM B. HENRY,
battalion surgeon and a prominent
Cleveland physician.
LIEUTENANT. DONALD. SCHO-
FIELD, of Company D, a Cleveland
architect.
CORPORAL JAMES KAHOE, COM
pany c..
PRIVATE H. R.HELD, Company C.
FRANK PHINNEY, aged 10 years,
son of Lieutenant o. c. Phinney. He
was the only boy on the train.
JAMES GRAY, colored cook for
Battery A, Ohio National Guard.
PRIVATE RICHARD BUERGER,
of Company c, First battalion.
c. T. SCOTT, the Pullman conduc-
tor, of Chicago.
GEORGE KAY, porter.
The tenth man is still unidentified.
Two of the unfortunates died while
being taken to the Beaver county hos
pital at Rochester.
The first train carried a battalion
of the Ohio engineers. 1t was made
up of six coaches and a baggage car.
The second train with the same num-
Der of cars carried the Tippecanoe
club of Cleveland with a band and
twenty or twenty-five women.
When the crash came the passen-
gers in the rear car of the first train
were the principal sufferers and all
the fatalities were in that car. The
wreckage took fire from the engine
and the entire first train and three
cars of the second were burned.
New trains were made up and sent
to the seem to bring the dead and
injured here.
Major J. B. McQuigg, who was in
command of the engineers battalion,
had both legs broken at the thigh and
will probably die.
Captain Charles e. Pope was the
only officer Of the engineers battal,
ion to escape injury and he will re-
turn to Cleveland. The Tippecanoe
club continued it's journey to Wash,
ington.
When roll call was made of the
Tippecanoe club only two men were
missing. They may be among the
injured who were taken to the hos
pital at Rochester, Pennsylvania.
The engineer of the second train
says the block signal showed a green
light and his train went ahead at the
rate of about firty-five or fifty miles
an hour. When the impact came
the engine of the second train plowed
through the Pullman in which the
officers were and hail way into the
tourist car just ahead of it.

sTRoYED, ENTAiLING A
LOSS OF $4,000.

White City, March 4.-The ]. G.
Thomas drug store building standing
at the northwest corner OF White
City, was burned to the ground early
this morning and the stock OF drugs
and the contents of the building were
almost entirely destroyed. The loss
will be about $4,000.
The building was of good size and
had a sort of hall or amusement place
in the second story over the drug
store. The building was almost new,
having been erected only last fall by
J. c. Thomas Company, formerly OPP
Grating a store at Muchakinock. 1t
was quite a substantial structure,and
made a tremendous blaze that was
seen for a distance Of miles on all
sides of the mining camp.
The origin Of the fire is not known.
Some incline toward the idea that
the place was set aflre, while others
believe that the fire was caused by a
discarded cigar.

Reports and Prospects of Work
Throughout County

In spite of the deep o and ex.
tremely cold weather of the winter,
many of the Sunday schools in the
rural districts of the county have
maintained their organization And
among this number are a few schools
which have never run through the
winter months heretofore. In these
cases it is due to the efforts of the
consecrated officers and teachers,
who, in spite of bad weather and
roads, are at their posts Of duty. In
some instances officers of the schools
have had to shovel their way through
huge drifts in order to reach the
school house and church.
The following is a report of the
work accomplished by the county
missionary from July l, 1904, to

.CHAUTAUQUA ASSURED SUNDAY SCHOOL NOTES
Commercial Club Endorses Move
ment Now Being Pushed.

49,
today endorsed the Chautauqua move
ment in Oskaloosa by adopting the
following resolution, reported by the
committee on city affairs:
I'VE, the Committee on City
Affairs, recommend that the Com-
mercial Club endorse the project
to establish a Chautauqua Assem-
bly, in Oskaloosa, Iowa, during
the coming summer ana we ap-
prove the plan Of organization on
the popular basis with full local
control rs outlined by Rev. J.. S.
Tussey.
"And we recommend that Mr..
N. j.. Bentley be appointed to
work in conjunction with Messrs.
J. P. Dodds, T. V. Dugan and
S. H. Zendt in soliciting"
Preliminary Meeting.
A preliminary meeting of those in
terested in the Chautauqua was held
in the Office of County Superintend.
ent Dodds on Wednesday evening
and of the score or more present, all
expressed themselves as heartily in
favor of the movement. Rev. Dugan
of the Christian church was made
chairman of the meeting and w. ],
Howell, secretary.
Rev. J. S. Tussey, of Little York
Illinois, who is here to organize the
work, explained the proposed meet
ing in a most comprehensive way
and pointed out the many advantages
Chautauquas are to any community,
Forecast of Features.
AS Ch%autauquas are in operation
all over the country, it is sometimes
difficult to get good talent in a new
place. Oskaloosa, however, is fortu
nate and by holding its series from
July II to 20, will be enabled to Sc,
cure the services of Prof. Apmadoc
of Chicago, who was adjudicator al
the last Iowa State Eisteddfod he'd
in Oskaloosa; DR.. Dodds, Capt. Jack
Crawford, DR.. S. w. Gilliland, Alton
Packard, DR.. r. S. Macarthur, Sam
Jones, VIM. Jennings Bryan, Lieut.
Hobson, and other people of national
reputation on the lecture platform
An excellent concert company an
also a glee club will be present dur
ing the week.
Plan Of Meeting.
The plan in contemplation is to Sc
cure the Friends Iowa Yearly meet
ing grounds. In addition to tnt
buildings already thereon, a large
canvass auditorium, sufficient to &c
commodate 5000 people will NJ
erected. Other tents for campers
will be set up and a veritable white
city established during the season
of the religious ana educationa
feasts.
y The Organization.
A stock company is to be formed
with shares at SO each. The money
thus subscribed will be for a guaran
tee fund only and will never be called
for unless the Chautauqua proves 6
failure. The history of Chautauquas
however, is that they never fail, hence
those who subscribe run little if any
risk. AS soon as 200 shares are tax
en- the company will meet and cleo
its officers, etc.
VIII Draw People to Town.
The Chautauqua is a veritable sum
mer school and in addition to those
who will attend the many lectures
and other special features, there viii
be many from all over the county
and surrounding territory who will
come to attend the regularly organ
lied classes. In Columbus Junction
for instance. a town Of 1900, there
is often IN attendance Of 5000 PEG
pie. In this way the business inter
ests of the city as well as the mora
and educational environs will be ben
