No. 81 arrived here two hours
late Monday evening caused by a
wreck which occurred about :03
O'Clock that afternoon between
Welburn and Upton, Ind, on the
st. Louis division. According to
an account of the accident given
by a person who was on'the train
when the accident occurred, the
train was running at the rate of
Is miles an hour and was on
time. Suddenly the tender, the
baggage car, three day coaches
and Pullman car of the train
were derailed. The baggage car
and the coaches turned over on
their sides. On all of the cars
there was a large number of pas
sengers, and it was apprehended
that many of them we're serious
ly injured. The rear trucks of
the engine, which was fortu-
nately under control and was
soon brought to standstlll, got
off the track. The passengers on
the coaches that were upset were
pulled out through the doors and
Windows of the coaches by pas
sengers from the Pullman car. 1t
is marvellous that none of the
passengers ON the coaches were
injured, but the women and chill
dren were only badly frightened.
They were taken into the Pull
man car and efforts were made
to calm them. Several of the
train crew were slightly injured.
A train was made up at Evans
vile and dispatched to the scene
of the accident, where it arrived
about two hours after the acct
dent occurred. This train the
passengers from the wrecked
train boarded. All the cars of
the wrecked train were left where
they were derailed. The acct
dent was attributed to the break
ing of an axle under the tender.
NO. SO was delayed one hour
Monday night in passing around
the wreck on the st. Louis divi-
sion near Upton. Ind.

FIERCE FLAMES
Destroyed Several Business Houses

Night.
ORIGINATED IN HARVEY BUILDING,

MONDAY night, Wnen 10 was uls-
covered that smoke was issuing
from the second story of the
building occupied by the Madi-
sonville Feed and Produce Co.
This building belonged to Mr.. j.
b. Harvey and he had an Office
upstairs.
The volunteer fire department
responded promptly, but by the
time they could get the hose con-
nected and water to playing,
flames were bursting out the WIN
dows of the Harvey building, and
it was seen that the adjoining
buildings we're on fire.
kilograms we're sent to Evans
vile for assistance, and word was
received that the department
would load apparatus on a freight
train that was getting ready to
pull out and would reach Madi-,
sonville as soon as possible.
For over an hour the fire ragged
furiously, and it seemed inertia
Die that the entire block would
be consumed and the danger of
sweeping the entire business dis
trict was great. But fortunately
the wall of Bourland e. Moore's
hardware store proved a barrier
and enabled the fire boys to get
a good chance to check the flames.
All efforts were directed to this
end 'and fortunately were sue.
cessful, and after a heroic fight,
the fire fiend's progress was
stayed.
There were several narrow es-
capes by those engaged in the
work of fighting the flames. Ex--
blossoms of powder and dynamite
made the work especially hazard.
Gus, but the fire boys stood to
their posts through it all
For awhile the Jail was threat
ened, as the frame buildings near
to it were burning, while the fire
department were directing all
their efforts toward stopping the
fire at Bourland & Moore's, bat
as luck would have it and owing
to good work with buckets, the
Jail was saved.
The property destroyed and
the firms sustaining the losses
are as follows as near as could be
ascertained:

MISSIONARY RIDGE.
How the Sceneasof Terrible Battle
Originally Got It's Name.


Stretching for mics along the east
ern border of the city. picturesque and
pleasing to view is Missionary ridge
How we'll that name is known from
the hemlocks of Maine to the flowers
OF Florida, and yet how different from
its name are the associates one gives
it when it is pronounced! In history
it is recorded as being the scene of one
Of the tiercest conflicts of the civil war,
but to the people who know the origin
of the name it Is monument to the
memory of band of devoted, self sac
rificing Christian men who, Drawing
the hardships of emigration not for the
love of gain, but to help their fellow
men, built the Brainard mission on the
picturesque heights known by the name
of Missionary ridge.
1t was in 1917 that the Rev. Cyrus
Kingsbury, Ainsworth Il. Blunt and
the Rev. John Vail first viewed the site
of their mission. They were sent here
by the American board Of commission
ers for foreign missions, and the same
board had provided for the erection of
a mission, including school buildings
and home for the missionaries. But
the contractors failed in their contract.
and the missionaries were left without
money and without even shelter. But
by energetic efforts they created q mis-
sion school and built a mill on the
banks of Chickamauga creek. The mill
race, nearly mile long, is still visible.
The mill was purchased by Philamon
Bird in 1852. He tore down the small
structure and built what is now known
as Birds mill.
On May q, 1919, the president Of the
United States. James Monroe. appeared
at the door Of the mission unannounced.
He was accompanied by General
Gaines. Although surprised by his Wis
it, the missionaries were ready to re-
ceive him, and he complimented them
on their work and in glowing terms
praised the beautiful location of the
mission. The Brainard mission was
used until the Indians left 1t did an
immense amount of good, and at one
time there We're more than 500 Indian
children being taught beneath it's roof.
The Lords supper was observed for
the last time on Aug. 10, 1888.
In the old mission cemetery east of
the ridge. overgrown with weeds and
forgotten by almost everybody. is a
little monument on which are the fol-
lowing words:

"roo GOOD AT YOUR HOUSE."

The following is d charming Japanese
story. In certain village there were
two families, the one prosperous and
the other merely getting along: yet the
former was famous in the village for its
unhappiness and the friction between its
members, while the latter was equally
renowned for its peace and content.
tn happy family. became continually
happier-.4to him. who hath shall be
given;" and the unhappy family con-
tinually became more unhappy from
him that hath shall be taken away that
which he seemeth to have.'
The man of wealth could stand it no
longer. He went to his humber friend
and asked him where he thought the
trouble lay. II have land enough and
house enough and money enough, yet
we are always quarrelling and unhappy.
You have nothing like the means for
comfort and enjoyment / have, and yet
your people are affectionate and con-
tented
The poor man replied thoughttully:
Perhaps it is because you are all such
good people at your house."
The rich man objected that if they
were all good people, certainly they
ought o1be happy together.
But the poor man would not recede.
No, you are ell good al your. house.
Now at my house il is different. We
are very faulty lot and we all know ii.
