Shocking Railroad Accident.

The Lancaster Teller reports the
death of brakeman named Bernard
Carr on Friday evening, Mar. a, by
being run over ty the cars. ltseems
the engine was switching some cars
out of the way in order to clear the
track for the evening passenger train.
Carr had uncoupled some cars from
the engine in order TO let them be
switched onto another track from the
engine, the engine having pulled
them some distance at "A fair speed
in order for them to gain enough
momentum TO pass the switch Of
their own accord. The train was
running at speed of eight miles an
hour, according to the engineer. The
Teller further states as follows:
The conclusion is that Barney
Carr, after he had uncoupled and
signaled to the engineer. caught the
iron rod on the car and jumped from
the engine foot board thinking to
light with his feet on the brake beam
that usually reaches across in front
from one wheel to another, but it
happened there was no beam there
In this situation there was indeed
poor chance for his life. One ankle
was broken, the shoe having been
pulled oil that foot indicated that
the foot was caught some way by
the wheel, and then he made des-
perate effort To throw himself away
from the ear. He fell on his back
with his neck on the rail and his
body extending along tho rail SO that
his left shoulder and arm were inside
OF the tract; and the rest of his body
outside. The ear wheel struck the
right side of his head at the ear and
mashed down over rs neck, breast
and left side, bursting the body SO
that the internal organs were thrown
out on the ground, All the wheels
on one side ci ten GAYS ran over him
in this manner. He could have had
only an instant of pain.
The remains were gathered up and
the next day were taken to the dis
tressed family ut Madison. Under
taker Rhodes dressed the body in
shape to be presentable without dis
rlay OF its horrible mutilation. Bar
ney Carr supported a house in Madi
son with his two sisters as house
keepers; their parents are not living.

the appearance Of hesitancy. There
are great problems to be met and
solved at Washington, but not all the
problems have been solved at Madi-

truly aggressive leader of the people
is SO large that leader must choose
with some hesitaucy.

The members of the Graysville
Philosophical Society are much ex-
ercised over the strange conduct of
one of its principal members, who
has fallen Il victim to IA common
malady, against which all thought
him positive proof. His lectures
against the malady to which he has
become victim We're always elo-
quent and interesting, especially TO
the class of bachelors who Were in
harmony with him on this subject. In
fact, he was considered an authority
ON all questions relating to bachelor
hood and single domesticatlon. But
of late he has given sigus of singu-
lar affection, which rose to culmin-
alton on the evening of March the
Goth, when he passed on to higher
state in the presence of "A large com
pany of friends and his afflicted
bachelor brothers.
Prof. John r.. Wallis entered the
Just before Mr.. Hewitt's
departure, looking sad and exceed
ingly melancholy at the prospect of
losing his old and life long bosom
friend. John sat good distance
from the causes of Mr.. Hewitt's mall
ady, and seemed afraid OF the con
taEi1u The HItsou assured John
that he was perfectly safe and need
have no fear. Instantly Johns eyes
caught sight of the bridesmaid and
his face lighted up with radiance
such as we have never seen before.
He also began to act strGnge and
gave signs Of the same affection, and
what the results will be time only
will tell.
Out in the bridal chamber the
whole class of bachelors were wait
ing for Prof. Hewitt to appear and
explain the cause and nature of the
malady that bad produced such a
change in him. Led by Prof John
II. Walls, Prof. Hewitt faced his

surviving units OF the Fraternal
Batchelors' Unity, deeply deplore
the departure OF this unit from our
circle. No more snail we be cheered
by his serious harangnes in support
OF our principles during our conclav-

antithetic position taken by him.
And while we, the remaining
units, condole among ourselves over
our recent adnascent unit, we unad-

The BabCoCk Appointment.

In the opinion of the St. Paul Dis I
patch the selection by Chairman
Cortelyou Of Mr.. Babcock as mem
Der OF the national republican COM
mittee from Wisconsin, Is most OBJ
jectionable, even ssid from the fact
that he Is unrepreseNtative OF the
party. as the election last fall clearly
shows. "The only official represen
tative Of the party" as the Dispatch
says, sis the state committee. II Is
the only body or person having con-
tinuous existence and authority to act
for the party in any manner affect
ing the party in the state. When
the national committee man retires
or resigns or dies, the state commit
tee, the only authority in existence,
is the logical body to name his sue
cessor. The member OF The national
committee no more loses his identity
with the state party than does man
lose identity with his state when
elected United States senator.
There would be as much propriety
and right in filing Of vacancy in
the senatorship by an appointment
made by the vice-president as there
il in this selecting Of IA states mem
Der of the national committee by the
chairman of that committee. The
principle is wholly wrong and chal
lenge should be made to it not only
because, in this use of it, Mr.. Cor
telyou has given affront to the great
majority of republicans in Wiscon-
sin by selecting n man whom that
majority rejected and who narrowly
escaped defeat in his own congress
slonal district, Notwithstanding said
district IL usually good for from
10000 to 1900 republican majority,
but because it is hostile To the theory
OF our government, derogatory to |
the doctrine Of the sovereignty OF
state, and promotive of that central |
iZation of authority in Washington,
which Is not one OF the encouraging
signs of the times
Itcanhot be successfully denied but
what the Dispatch is correct in its
analysis Of this question. Mr.. Bah
cock was not the choice OF the repub-
lican party of Wisconsin, neither
was that party consulted His APP
pointment merely serves to intensity |
the feeling of indignation which the
national comm ttee aroused in the
state last June when it seated in the
national convention delegates who |
bad been sent by "A minority boiling |
so stamped by our SUI
preme court; aud Mr.. Bnbcuck was
one of the boilers seated Duo re-
spect for the supreme courts deci-
sion should have been guide for
Mr.. Cortelyou II nothing else.

"Brethren, no doubt you are some-
what surprised at my present condi-
ton, and change from Horseology to

its fragrance sweet, and | came to

presented o beautiful violet to his
batchelor friends, who were SPELL
bound with the burning eloquence
of Mr.. Hewitt in delineating the viz.
tues of this beautiful flower.
1t was very plain from the express
sion of Prof. Wallis's face that he
was in profound sympathy with
Prof. Hewitt, and that there were in
dications of marked changes in him.
Prof. Phil Hewitt thought that Prof.
H. Hewitt had chosen very good
study, and did not know but he
might enter the same class Ii was
also evident from the actions of
Profs. w. Bennett, l.. Gundry, John
Holman and Fred Dunn, that they
were being affected by the same
malady, ana We're becoming the vic
Tins OF the same coutagion In con-
sideration of the fact that all these
bachelors are anxious to catch the
Hewitt malady, the society has
placed them under the skilful care
aud treatment of DR.. Gundry.
The bachelors met and with tear
full regrets and many expressions of
surprise and admiration, passed the
following resolution, not knowing
who will be the next:

DIR. LYMAN ABRoTr, speaking at
the annual conference under the aus
pieces Of the Yale, Union and Hart
ford theological seminaries, admitted
and rather welcomed the fact that
the pulpit does not draw on the
young men "a it did in the old days,
saying this is due to change from
the respect for the forms and offices
of the ministry To respect for the
manhood of the ministry. He said
that no one should enter the ministry
who is afraid to face poverty, small
congregations, charges of heresy, the
misrcp0rting Of the gossips and the
misreporting of the newspapers.

intended to thwart the friends OF
Gov LaFollette who might urge him

ing that everyone familiar with Wis

THE Milwaukee Journal, from it's
independent standpoint, has this to
say OF L. :. Senator elect LaFollette
in its Monday issue of this week:
"The governor does not believe that
injustice should be done ;he rail

limits u which action against them
il confined by the courts. Every
body who talks with him is con
WINGED that he is sincere in the posi-
tion he takes. He certainly has a
fund of Information on the subject
The Tribune would add, that Justice
to one aud all is the sole aim of our
governor, and that the opposition to
him is led by only those who are
receiving more than their Just dues.

would be to shelter the staple each farmer in bis
own front yard. In this the Governor doubtless rec
Ognizes the capabilities Of each individual to look
after bis own business, taking chances in hand
ing his hard earned product over into the keeping
Of another. This is not altogether an unwise piece
Of advice.
In no part Of his remarks does the Governor en-
courage the reduction Of cotton acreage by ideness
neglect in any way. But he suggests that when every
farmer in the South raises as much corn and peas
and hogs and mules and cattle and chickens and
turkeys as he wants for his own use, that he will
need have no fear Of an over production OF cotton
even though the demands for greater yield from
year to year may be discontinued In this, also the
Governor touches a vital point It is fact that so
per cent Of the money received by the farmers Of the
South for their cotton crop, that which they call
their money CROP and is such in fact is yearly ex-
pended for the very things which might just as well
be kept at home and that for which it is expended
produced on the same land which il placed in cot
ton, everything in cotton means low price for all
cotton sold.
Honestly with himself, and a determined stand to
protect him against the great combines which are
ever seeking TO take advantage Of him the Governor
urges every farmer to make his first thought. he
admits it is gigantic fight, but insists that as the
farmers learn that they are really the masters in
stead Of the servants OF the country they will stand
out 50 prominently and maiesticaly that happiness
win take the place Of want aBd plenty WIN staud
ready TO pay them homage.

go slow in selecting strangers whose attractions
seem to be their promptness and enterprise.
Meantime it is interesting to note that there are
great many men scattered all over the country who
are willing and ready to abandon their single misery

as for family eating and cooking, the absence OF

ipulations in the staples we'll as otherwise, Is
sale counselor. His speech is entirely free from
any political references, and hence no matter how
varied may be the assemblage of listeners, all
become interested, and his suggestions fall upon
preiudiced ears.
The Governor is not only good talker, eloquent
and inspiring, but masteriul as we'll in his argu-
ments. If he is not sure Of his ground upon any
point touched he simply touches it, giving his view
upon it and suggests to the audience that it is
simply matter OF ascertaning the right aud doing
it, That he is as willing to eaIn he is TO teach.
He does not boom the managers of the new organ
zation now in tho field, which Instituted at
New Orleans, but admits the power OF thorough
organization, and suggests that the farmer who
would be in touch with his CO workers in the agri-
cultural fields can we'll afford TO pay the meagre as
sessments that levied upon him, though all
the plans suggested by the high officials Of the
organization may not be endorsed by him. Instead,
also, Of adopting or commencing the recOmmenda-
tion to carry his surplus cotton to town and place il
in bond with others as stock in great warehouse,
Governor Vardaman suggests that more sensible
plan and fully as safe one and one cheaper by far,
