HERoIsM COSTS HIM HIS LIFE.
James TX. Triton Saves Impcrlled La
dies to His Own Undoing.

Ogden, Aug. 9.-James X. Triton. the
2l-year-old son of Conductor John Ur-
ton of the Southern Pacific, and an en-
ploye in the signal department of that
company, received injuries which re-
suited in his death while saving the
lives of some women passengers from
instant death beneath the wheels of
the second section OF Overland Limit
ed. eastbound, yesterday afternoon.
From information received In this
city, the accident occurred at Natchez,
200 miles west of Ogden and % miles
from Wells, New. AS far as can be
learned, a party of lady tourists alight-
ed from the train to walk up and down
the tracks while their train was at the
station. They We're amusing themselves
in attempting to walk the rails and
did not notice the second section OF
their passenger train until Is was near
ly on them. When they saw their dan
ger they lost control of themselves and
rushed frantically down the track be-
tween the rails. Triton, who was stand
ing near the signal tower, saw their
danger and dashed toward them. He
helped the ladies out of the way of the
oncoming passenger train, but was too
late TO save himself and was borne
down by the train. He was removed
to the company hospital at Elko, where
he died few minutes after his ar
rival.

The first operation was entirely Sue
cessful. Tuoes were inserted in the

LAST SATURDAY IN A
PRISON, THAW THINKS
Convinced That He Will Be
Freed This Week.
is HILARIOUSLY HOPEFUL.

New York, April 6-Finally con-
vinced that this is the last Saturday
night in = prison cell, Harry *. Thaw,
slayer of Stanford White, went to bed
tonight in hilariously hopeful mood,
according to the keepers in the Tombs
prison. His wife and attorneys who
visited him early today are of the
same opinion.
That he will not be convicted of
murder in the first degree seems GER
tain, but that he will escape scott
free is doubtful owing to the fact that
the jury is made up of New York busi-
ness men who are familiar with the
seamy side of New York life and be-
cause of this fact they may say Thaw
waited too long before wreaking ven-
geance and bring about hung jury.
1t is expected that the argument
will not start before late Tuesday. 1t
is possible that DelmaS intends bring
ing in conditions not expected by Jer-
ONE at the last moment so as to
spoil all preparation for argument by
the states attorney.

Greenfield, Ind, April 6.--The Meth

make no attempt at the session of the
North Indiana conference at Logans-

congregation made a strong fight at
Alexandria last year for the session
that went to Logansport The con-
ference next year will have a lay rep
resentation, and is considered too big
an undertaking for Greenfield. The
pastor Of the Bradley church. in this
city. the Rev Wallace w Martin, has
been considered for presiding elder in
one of the Indiana districts, and fhc
congregation has been considerably
worked up over the rnfnor thar he

Isham SedgWick Sends Word
From Nicaragua That Hard
ships Are Being Worked by
The Present Conflict.
EXPORT FACILITIES
ARE INTERFERED WITH.
Laborers Have Been Con-
scripted for Service in, the
Army-Thus Far Property
interests Are Not MoIested.

Word has been received in this city
from Isham Sedgwick, a former resi-
dent of Richmond, that the operations
of Nicaraguan troops in the war now
raging between that country and Hon
duras and the latter country's ally Sal
vador have caused considerable dam
age to the coffee plantation owned by
local capital, which is located in Mata-
galpa. Nicaragua, and is operated by
Mr.. Sedgwick
Mr. Sedgwick reports that all his la
borers have been conscripted for army
service by the Nicaraguan governme n
and that at the present time he has no
men to assist in havesting the immense
coffee crop, which threatens to rot on
the trees Mr. Sedgwick also states
that owing to the unsettled condition
of the country he has been unable 10
export the coffee he had prepared for
shipment to the United States before
the outbreak of the war.
The Nicaraguan troops have been re-
ported as devastating the property OF
Americans. but MIR. Sedgwick states
that the Richmond company's planta.
ton has not been molested by the SOL
diers and that he has not had to ap-
peal to the American minister for pro
lection. Fortunately for Mr.. Sedg-
wick and his associates. victory has
followed the Nicaraguan arms and the
fighting has taken place entirely on
Honduran soil. Had the Monduran
troops been successful in the earlier en-
gagements, Nicaraguan soil would
have been over-run with the Honduran
sU,tiiely and il is probable that the
property of the local company would
have been destroyed.
Among the local people interested in
the plantation which is managed by
Mr.. Sedgwick, are Mrs. Anna Beesoa
and Glenn Ferguson. Mr.. Beeson and
his family have resided in Matagalpa
for over two years.
Attorney Jesse S. Reeves. who was
terested in La Richmond planta-
tion in Nicaragua. which some years
ago was sold by the local stockholders
to Chicago capital. went to Nicaragua
four or five years ago. and he talks
most Interestingly of that warlike
country. Mr. Reeves states that crush
ing defeat administered by Nicaragua
to Honduras and Salvador in this last
war was no surprise to him as Presi-
dent Jose S. Zelaya of Nicaragua is
the most powerful man in Central
America. He has ruled that country
after the fashion of dictator for the
past fifteen years and by his brilliant
has crushed all plots and
against his authority. BY
his latest victory. Mr.. Reeves states.
Zelaya holds Nicaragua. Honduras and
Salvador in the palm of his hand.

DAVID BRUMLEY IN
JURED IN ACCIDENT
Passenger Train SidesWiped
The Tender of the Night
Switch Engine.
LEG is TWICE BROKEN.
ACCIDENT WAS FORTUNATE IN
THE REGARD THAT 1T COULD
EASILY HAVE BEEN OF MUCH
WORSE NATURE.

In a side swipe collision between the
night switch engine and passenger
train No s, about 7:10 O'Clock Satur-
day night, David Brumley. the fire
man on the switch engine. was hurled
to the floor of the tender and when the
latter turned over on its side. he was
thrown to the ground, suffering a bro
ken leg in two places. Both frac-
lures are below the knee.
Brumley was in the act of firing
when the engine went to take a switch
between Sixth street and TT. Wayne
avenue. No. s, the passenger train,
was coming around the curve, near the
point of the accident, and the switch
engine crew was endeayoring to make
the switch before the train pulled on
TO them. The engine cleared the
switch. but the rear end of the tender
was struck by the engine of No. S. and
the former was turned over on its side,
throwing Brumley to the ground. The
accident might have terminated more
seriously than it did. for had the en-
CINE been farther on the main track.
it is probable that both the passenger
and switch engines woulu have come
together with crash. Engineer John
Shea of the switch engine, escaped un-
injured.
Mr.. Brumley was Immediately re-
moved from the scene of the accident
in the city ambulance, and a physi-
clan was called to attend his injuries.
He was suffering much pain Saturday
night and it was feared that he had
also suffered some internal injuries.

Go From the Christian
Church to the East Main
Street Friends Church.
FIRST SERVICE THERE
NEXT THURSDAY NIGHT.
At That Time a Large DeIega-
ton Will Be Present From
New Castle to Aid in the
SerVices-Larger Choir.

Owing to the inadequate size of the
board of that congregation met with
the trustees of the East Main Street
Friends church Saturday afternoon
and entered into an agreement by
which the revival meetings Will be
begun at the East Main street church
Thursday night The present quart
ers are not large enough and the
great interest already shown in the
meetings was considered sufficient
warrant for securing a larger church
edifice. The coliseum was considered
for time, but owing to the very
great expense which would be involv-
ed, and owing to the fact that the
church would have to turn over three
nights a week, for the use of the coli
scum management, the project was
given up and efforts directed toward
securing the splendid edifice of the
Friends. Had this not been success
full there were steps under way for
the construction of tabernacle
which would seat at least two thous-
and people at the corner of Tenth and
Main streets.
EvangeIists Confident.
Evangelists Wilson and Limit, who
are conducting the Christian church
revival, are confident that they are
going to do great things in Richmond
and hence asked for a larger audi
torium in which they could conduct
their meetings.

Members of the Christian church at

red strong, headed by the Rev. l.. C.

The interest manifested in the meet

the interest shown is warrant for the

WILL CHANGE ENTIRE
Landowners CLASS
important Bill Before English
Parliament.
BENEFITS COMMON PEOPLE

London, April Ga bill will be -
troduced in parliament next week
which will change the entire land
owners class in Great Britain. It
is designed to permit small holders to
purchase farms and real estate The
bill is favored by the Liberal leaders.
There is strong feeling that the
main plank of the government plat
form should be made TO agree to the
proposition to help the back bone OF
the nation, the small land holder. The
bill has widespread scope and il
enacted would change the entire land
ed entries of the kingdom. The new
law will have a decidedly effective
change in the relation of land owners
to tenants.
