FIFTY DEAD
Is INJURED.
IN RAILROAD WRECK NEAR
PUEBLO.-PASSENGER
TRAINS COLLIDE.

PUEBLO, Col, March 16.-The
worst railroad wreck in Colorado
since the memorable Eden disaster
occurred about o'clock this morn
ing on the Denver & Rio Grande Rail-
road, near Adobe. EastDound train
No 16 crashed into westbound train
No 8, telescoping the forward cars
on each train. The coaches at once
took fire and the flames completed
the horror begun by the collision.
The number of dead is estimated
at from fifty upward. The number
injured is placed at twenty-five. The
cause of the wreck is attributed to
failure to deliver orders to No. 16 SO
that No could pass.
Among the physicians who rendered
assistance were DR.. F. N. Cochens of
Salida, who was on 10. 16 at the time
of the collision, but who escaped in
jury He at once began caring for
the wounded and was assisted by
Drs. G. W. Rambo and F. B. Moore
of Florence, who soon arrived at the
scene of the disaster
Burned Alive.
Some of the victims were pinioned
under the wreckage and burned alive
before help could reach them. Most
of the injured were on No. 3, which
ind
comparatively ew passengers and
these escaped generally with slight
shaking up.
One man, whose name could not be
learned, was the only one of a family
of ten who escaped. He lost his
father, mother, wife and three chill
dren, a brother and two other rela-
tives.
Three of the crew on No. 3 were
killed and two on No. 16. One of the
engineers on No. 8, which was
double-header, was found dead in his
cab, with his hand on the throttle.
Express Messenger E. M. Mcfarland,
a relative of the detective of that
name, who has been active in the
Governor Steuneburg assassination
case, is among the dead.
Many of the bodies will never be
Identified, having been burned to a
crisp. Part of the mail was de-
stroyed and all the express matter.
Relief trains were at once dis
patched to the scene from Pueblo and
Florence, but the work was neces-
sarily slow, because of the smoke
from the burning wreck and because
of the cold weather. The first train
bearing injured reached Pueblo
shortly after o'clock.

INSTRUCT FOR
CEN. PATTERSON
DAVIDSON CONVENTION PROVES
TO BE LIVELY.
ARE 1LEcTED
of Gov. Cox Take No Ac,
tive Part, and Opposing Forces Car
ry Out Programme-lnstruct Dele
cation to Vote as Unit.

Stormy times marked the session
of the Davidson county Convention,
held at the court house in Nashville
Saturday. The convention was call,
ed to order, with every ward and dis,
trict represented. The forces of Gen.
M. r. patterson were in absolute con-
troll, electing delegates to tie State
Convention, with instructions to vote
for him for Governor so long as his
name is before the convention. The
convention was organized by the cleo
tion of E. R. Richardson, Chairman,
and James c. Gleaves, Secretary. The
supporters of Gov. John l. Cox only
voted once during the session of the
convention, that being on a motion to
adjourn, which was defeated While
the convention was being organized
there was great silence on the Cox
side of the house.
The convention did not take any
action in regard to the race for State
Treasurer, a resolution indorsing Len
K Hart being withdrawn before vote
was taken. The greatest confusion
during the convention followed the
offering of the resolution indorsing
Mr.. Hart, and at times it was diff
cult to understand what was being
done.
Maj. w. o. Vertrees led the fight
in behalf OF Gov. Cox, and Thos W.
Wrenne WIS one of the principal
speakers in behalf of Gen. Patterson.
The Patterson forces were in the
majority, having IS votes, and the
supporters of Gov. Cox had 70 votes,
one of their delegates voting sever
al times with the former.
May be Two Delegations.
The insistance of the supporters of
Gov. Cox was that they had been
elected delegates to the State Con-
vention by the people, and it is sup
posed that they will claim this right
One prominent Cox man was heard to
say that they must go to the State
Convention with clean record, and
another was heard to say that they
were going to the State Convention.
The Patterson forces were jubilant
over the fact that the opposing dele
gates voted on the motion to adjourn,
they having participated in the con-
vention to that extent. The purpose
of the supporters of Gov. Cox was evil
IDENTIFY not to participate in the pro-
ceedings, their position being that
they had been elected to the State
Convention, and they recognized that
the convention would instruct for
Gen. Patterson.
Thomas M. Hart, Chairman of the
County Democratic Committee, rap
ped for order at IL o'clock, and an
nounced that the credentials had not
arrived, but would be brought in in
few minutes, when the convention
would be called to order.
AhO SoulC houoS was SIOWuSu SuIHS
time before the hour set for the meet
ing of the convention. E. R. Richard
son was slated for Permanent Chair
man by Patterson delegates, and the
Cox forces formed a combination
with some of the opposing delegates
to defeat the programme by electing
w. H. Cooper, Chairman. Mr.. Cooper
was a Patterson delegate, elected
from Waverly Place, and declined to
be considered.

At The Hospitals.

Mr. Louie Ervine, whowas injured
in street fight at Mcdowell dur
ing the holidays, went toRichmond
last week, where an operation was
performed, some pieces of bone be-
ing removed from his forehead. He
is said to be getting along we'll.
Rey Edw Brumbaugh left We'd
nesday morning forJohns Hopkins,
at Baltimore. Mr. Brun baugh, who
is comparatively young man, is
subject to commissions, at intervals,
thought to be due to fracture OF
the skull in childhood, which left
depression. He has been led to be-
lieve that an operation may relieve
the pressure and afford entire relief
from his affection.

The School Ente: tainment.

The School Ente: tainm0nt.
In spite of the fact that the num-.
Der Of pupils at the Monterey High
School is not large, an interesting
programme was gotten up and we'll
rendered on Friday night last. All
who took part ia the exercises did
we'll, and the young children gave
evidence Of competent training.
The audience was not large, but
proved to be a $3.50 one, and we
heard nothing but expressions OF
satisfaction from those present.
In a few appropriate closing re-
marks, Mr. Andrew Jones brought
out point which should appeal to
every citizen:
The manifold and unselfsh ends
sought to be accomplished by these
efforts. The completion of the
building, the grading, fencing and
identifying Of the lot are objects
that commend themselves to all,
and every such opportunity to en-
courage the work should bring out
a packed house.
Besides all this we get more
than our moneys worth every
time.

Production of Sugar

In view Of the early opening OF
the sugar season of 1906 and the
prospect of phenomenal output
this year..we were prompted to Sc
cure statistics showing The aggre-
gate production of sugar and syrup
in Highland, which leads all the
counties of Virginia in this partic-
ular commodity.
TO ascertain these facts we call
ed to our assistance a reliable man
from various sections of the coun-
ty, specifying the territory assign
ed to him, and we have reason to
believe that the various reports
sent in are approximately cor
rect, and we desire to thank our
friends for the interest manifested
in the matter.
Total output Of sugar 52,553 lbs
Total output of syrup 1880 gals
1t is needless to say that Blue
grass leads by several thousand
pounds. Monterey district comes
next and Stonewali third.
As to the percentage of trees and
camps that are now opened or op.
perated, many of our readers are
in better position to estimate than
are we, and the waste incident to
lack of adequate facilities during
heavy runs would also have to be
considered in order to approximate
the full capacity of the county as
sugar producing section.
Without consulting many Of the
older inhabitants it is safe to assert
that the present season is record
breaker. In fact, it is doubtful
whether half this amount has ever
been produced in any one previous
year. This is due more especially,
perhaps, % to the very early open
ing Of the season and the frequent
recurrence of 'spells," ard (2) to
the presence Of many evaporators,
which greatly facilitate the work
Of boiling down and thus saving
the loss of sap during an excessive
flow.
1t is a great pity that this pecu-
liar industry should be entirely de-
pendent upon weather conditions.
But for this fact its commercial
Importance would be at once recog-
nized, and the interest OF every
farmer would be enlisted.
In spite Of the uncertainties of
the business, some lessons and de-
auctions may be drawn from the
facts established by our little can
vass, and we will be gratified to
know that we have done more than
merely satisfy idle curiosity.

Hurt In Runaway.

On Saturday last. Mr.. Jacob Wi
mer, who is quite an old man, was
at work in his meadow, about eight
miles north Of monterey, when his
team ran off, throwing him from
the wagon and inficting serious
injuries. Mr. Winner was found in
a stunned and unconscious condi
ton, from which he did not rally
until late in the evening, We
learn that no bones were broken
and that he had partially recovered
from the shock sustained.
