CUT IN TWO
UNKNOWN NEGRO MEETS DEATH
UNDER WHEELS OF ENGINE.
Accident Not Due 20 Carelessness OF
Railroad-Coroner Unable to
Identify the Man.

An unknown negro was instantly
killed under the wheels of an ~. c,
and St. l.. railroad engine Sunday
morning between and 2 O'Clock
near the Thompson stock yards at
Thirteenth and Caldwell streets. He
was struck while trying to avoid the
engine, and his body was cut in two.
A light engine is sent to Hollow
Rock junction every morning to
double" back with a freight train.
The engine leaves shortly before 2
o'clock and was on this occasion in
charge of Engineer William Kane,
on engine No. So. He opened the
throttle after Twelfth street was
passed and gained speed. The negro
was seated on the rails, apparently
asleep, and was not seen by the en-
gineer until the big machine was
nearly on him. Several sharp blasts
OF the engine whistle brought the
negro to a consciousness of his dan
ger. He made a leap to clear the
tracks but did not succeed.
His body was taken from under
meath thefengine cut in two.
Coroner Eaker held an inquest
Sunday morning and buried the
body, identification not having been
established, in the county graveyard.

traction nc Chicago and ST.
Louis Expositions.
SOMETHING OF ITS HISTORY

Blown to pieces by monster
charge of dynamite. the Ferris wheel
came to an ignominious end yester-
day at st. Louis, after a varied career
of thirteen years. At its ending II
was unwept and unsung.
Sonstructed as one OF the engin-
eerlng feats of century, the wheel
first was feature of the Chicago
worlds fair in 1898.
Then for long period Of monu-
mental and improbable inactivity il
lowered in an amusement park near
the east end OF Diversey boulevard
1t finally was removed to St. Louis
TO form for the second time the huge
mechanical marvel of a great exposi.
ton.
For more than a month heavy
wagons laden with the 1900 tons oi
steel entering into its construction
numbered through Chicago's streets
Giant Wheel Fights for Life.
1t required 200 pounds of dyna-
mite to put 1t out of business.
The huge axle. weighing seventy
four tons dropped slowly with tho
remnants OF the wheel. crushing the
smaller braces and steel frame work
When the mass stopped settling II
bore no resemblance to the vhee;
which was so familiar to Chicago and
st. Louis and TO 100000 amuse-
ment seekers from all over the
world, who, in the days when II was
in operation, made the trip to the
top of its height of 264 feet and then
slowly around and down to the start
ing point.
Wonder Of Two Continents.
The wheel was the wonder of two
continents, by reason of its cost of
$500, 900. its dimensions, and its ut
ter uselessness.
George Washington Gale Ferris
president of a Plttsburg engineering
firm, originated the idea of the wheel
that bore his name. taking the notion
from a bicycle and adapting the con-
structive principles of steel bridges
in its erection.
Ferris took in $3.50. .O0ept so cents
a ride.
The cost of taking down the wheel
was $4,000. Its ruins are estimated
as worth $4,000 as scrap iron.

Special Gable Despatch 10 THE SUN.
LONDON, May 25.-No light was thrown
to-day Upon the murder Of Archibald Wake
ley, the artist who was found yesterday
morning with his head battered in, in his
studio at ~Bayswater. A key was found in
his hand that did not belong to him; at any
rate, II is not yet known what lock it fits.
Violent and repeated blows were dealt on
his head after the delivery Of the fatal one
and this does not point to the deed as that
Of a professional burglar, nor does the fac
that the clothes from the cot that Wa kelley
used in his studio were thrown over the
corpse.
The possible clue which 1t wal hoped
the key would furi ish seems of doubtful
value. One reporter quotes the police as
saying the key is a myth, none having been
found. Another says the key was found
on the floor and not in Wakley's hand, it
apparently having been dropped by his
assailant. Until the inquest Monday little
that Is reliable is likely to be known as the
police here are hal itually secretive and
enjoy mystifying the reporters,
Dwellers opposite the studio house now
recall seeing a light in the studio at 0 o'clock
last night, which was before the murder,
when it was known that none of the regular
occupants was in the house. 1t was a small
light, such as would be made by a candle
near the floor.

STRAIGHT TENDERLOIN POSTS.
Deputy WaldO's New system cf Police
Patrol Makes Long Heals.

Under an order Of First Deputy Police
Commissioner Waldo a new chem OF
patrol was Installed in the Tenderloin
precinct last right. 1t Is nothing but the
plan that was devised when the six section
system was adopted by Gen. Greene Under
the plan the cops patrol straight, or
other words, they only nave one street or
Avenue to traverse.
The large number Of men that the opera
ton OF the three platoon system requires
ma kes this manner of patrolling very diff
cult. The only easy way to cover the city
is TO have the post Of each policeman 10
arranged that he patrols u certain stretch Of
avenue and all the abutting side streets
for half a block in each direction. In
other words, a policeman whose post eX-
tends from Fourteenth street north to
Nineteenth street has to look after the side
streets half way to Sixth avenue and half
way to Fourth avenue.
Under the three platoon system the Ten
derloin precinct had fifty posts, and to in
stall the new idea of Commissioner Waldo
1t was found by Capt. Hodgins that he could
not possibly do with less than fifty-nine
posts. The captain "a w that this is close
figuring. too. He notified the deputy com
missioner and requested thirty additiona
men for his comma nd
Commissioner Nnldo only sent the cap.
tain nine more men. one for each additional
post Capt. Hodgbs has lost considerable
weight worrying out the new plan. To
make matters worse. two of the members OF
Capt. Hodgins's command were transferred
to special duty vestert NY.
Capt. Hodgins got the system working
last night, but Tome of the posts a re prett \
long dra wn out. Each side street had
only one cop to look after its peace and
safety, and when it is taken into consider.
ton that the western bolndary Of the
precinct is Seventh avenue and the eastern
is Fouyth avenue it can be seen that ca oh
cop had a good three>luarters of a mile
to keep guard over. The posts on Seventh,
Sixth, Fifth, Madison and Fourth avenues
were also, very long, The precinct extends
north and south from Forty-second street
to Fourteenth street, and there was Broad
way to consider.

Mother Says:
"CUTICURA REMEDIES
A HOUSEHOLD STANDBY"

'In reply to your letter I write you
my experience, and you are privileged
to use it as you see fit. Last year,
after having my little girl treated by a
very prominent physician for an obsti-
nate case of eczema, ! resorted to the
Cuticura Remedies, and was so well
pleased with the almost instantaneous
relief afforded that we discarded the
tirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura
Ointment, and Cuticura Pills. When
we commenced with the Cuticura Rem
edies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six weeks
We had her completely well, and there
has been no recurrence Of the trouble.
ain July of this year a little boy in
our family poisoned his hands and arms
with poison oak, and in t~wenty-four
hours his hands and arms were q mass
Of torturing sores. We used only the
Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands
and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and
anointed them with the Cuticura ONT
ment, and then gave him the Cuticura
Resolvent. In about three weeks his
hands and arms healed up; so we have
lots of cause for feeling grateful for the
Cuticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura Remedies are a valuable
household standby, living as We do

it costs from twenty to twenty-five dol
