ENGINEER DIES
FROM HIS INJURIES
c. w. M'DANIEL, BADLY SCALDED
IN A WRECK NEAR M'SHAN
SATURDAY NIGHT, DIED
MONDAY MORNING.
Death Occurred at Home of Deceased
in Tuscaloosa and Body Was
Brought to This City for
Interment Tuesday.

Mr.. Charles W. Mcdaniel, a popu.
| lar engineer on the Montgomery div
| ision of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad
died at his home in Tuscaloosa at an
early hour last Monday morning, his
death having resulted from injuries
sustained in a wreck on Saturday af-
ternoon. Northbound freight train
No. IA was wrecked at McShan, Ala,
about six o'clock Saturday afternoon,
the locomotive and four cars having
left the track. Mr.. Mcdaniel was the
engineer in charge of the train, and
was terribly scalded. He was taken
TO his home in Tuscaloosa, and not
withstanding the fact that every rem
edy known to medical science was ap-
piled, it was impossible TO save his
life, and the bells which marked the
stroke of midnight Sunday night toll
ed his death knell.
Mr.. Mcdaniel was a brother-in-law
Of Mr.. J. L. FAINT of this city, having
married his sister, Miss Flora Fant,
and is survived by his widow and
three small children. The body was

general hand-shaking. He then re-
quested the members of the congre-
cation TO come forward and shake
hands with him and with the differ
ent local ministers seated on the plat
form. then TO pass down the right
center aisle OF the church and shake
hands with each other A large num-
Der of people responded to the invi-
tation, and general handshaking
followed. This closed the afternon
service, and after a song by the choir
the congregation was dismissed.
A committee of ladies and gentle
men called on the various merchants
of the city yesterday and requested
them to close their stores from ten TO
twelve O'Clock each day during the
progress of Mr.. Gates meeting. The
Dispatch is informed by a member of
the committee that all of the mer-
chants agreed to close, as requested,
every day except Saturday. The
drug stores are not included in this
list, it being of course impracticable
for them to close their doors, as peo-
pie are apt TO need medicine at any
hour during the day.
The meeting is progressing in a
most satisfactory manner, there hav-
ing been already more than fifty con-
versions. The revivals will continue
until further notice, with services at
10 a. IN. and 7:30 p. m. each day.

To Try New Plan.

Jackson, Miss, March 1S.-Presi-
dent Stacy Compton, of the Cotton
! States League, has given notice to the
directors of the six associations COM
| posing the circuit that in voting on
the schedule adoption for the 1907
season to designate first, second and
third choices from the sixteen sched-
uIes submitted.
President Compton believes that
in this manner a schedule satisfac-
tory to all towns can be selected with
out the necessity of calling a meet
ing OF the board of directors prior to
the opening of the season. At any
schedule is not selected prior 10 the
25th of March the directors viii be
called to convene.
Exhibition games are the order OF
the day around the circuit, and the
teams will obtain several good work
outs prior to the opening of the sea-
son on April 10th. Jackson engaged
in a game Monday afternoon with the
Mississippi college team, led by the
former manager OF the locals, Ace
Stewart, who will play with Meridian
this year. During the latter part of
the week Jackson will go to the Mis-
sissippi college campus to play one
game with that team.
Meridian crosses bats with the
team from the Mississippi a. and NJ.
College at Starkville, and Manager
Sample will have a proposition that
promises to keep him busy, the col
legians from Starkville being recog-
nized as a hefty bunch.
Bernie McCay's Mobile team was
defeated in very decisive manner by
the Spring Hill College aggregation,
which gives rise to the suspicion that
McCay's men are not in good shape,
or else the Sea Gull organization is
much weaker than last year.
Vicksburg's contingent, led by Man
ager George Blackburn, had a Sun
day game with amateurs. Bobbie
Gilks has the Gulfport team in hard
practice, and asserts with confidence
that he has enlisted a penant-win
ming bunch TO mark his debut in the
Cotton tSates League.
