L'ORRIBTLE DISGRAZIA DI UNA

Uno del pin terribili e strazianti
ACCIDENT di cut abba avuto in questi
ultimi tempt ad occuparsi la cronaca
avvenne il giorno 4 corrente sulla
strada di Linden a q~uattro miglia di

Una graziosa bambina italiana, GER
ia Irene Calosso, era insieme ad n
piccola AMIGA nella delta strada,
quando venue a passare una lunga fl
la dl carrettoni carichi di grano.
La piccola Irene, come sogliono ia
re spesso / ragazzi, wolfe tentare IL
arrampicarsi sopra rultimo del CARR
e 81 insinuo fra lie due ruote. Quando
credeva di esser giuDta a prender po-
sto sui carrettone, essa cadde o 81
sa come g rimase col capo proprio
soto una dele ruote che glielo
schiaccio orribilmente.
II carrettiere che %guidava II veico-
10 non ST era accorto di nulla e CONT
nuava ad andare tranquillamente per
Ia sua strada. Flu una donna, che,
stando sulla porta della sua casa, vi
de IL misero corpo della bambina ste
so in mezzo ALA strada e 81 die a
chiamare con quanto fiato aveva in
corpo.
II carrettiere torno allora indietro
e rimase talmente impressionato dali
l'orrendo s%pettacolo di quel cape in
fantile ridotto ad una miseranda pol
tiglia di ossa e di sangue, che 81 die a
%piangere a calde lagrime, protestando
fra i singhiozzi di non avere nessuna
colpa della disgrazia.
Quando la bambina ST era arram-
picata ALA carretta, egli era occupato
col suoi cavalli Q Sc non fosse stata
quella donna ad avvertirlo avrebbe
c%ontinuato, senza saper nulla, il sue

arrange for Schurz a more or less
informal meeting with the Queen for
the evening after his arrival.
In the course of the day Mr.. Perry,
the Legation Secretary, remarked
something about the official dress in
which they were to, appear in the
evening. At that time the Minis
ters OF the United States wore at
the Foreign Courts-"a richly en-
broidered dress coat correspondingly
ornamental trousers, a cooked hat and
court sword" Schurz had already
ordered Of a tailor in Paris, but they
would not arrive until few days lat
or. There was nothing for him to
wear but ordinary evening clothes.
The secretary was much disturbed.
He tried to arrange it with the elm
troductor de Los Embajadores. I"
This punctilious and solemn grandee
grew pale at the idea of Foreign
Minister i'll plain evening clothes be-
ing received by her Majesty. Such a
thing had never happened in the his
tory of Spanish Monarchy! But the
secretary finally prevailed, and
things went swimmingly for time.
In blameless evening attire, Schurz
finally found himself ready for ac-
ton:
81 had only to put the letter Of
credence to be presented to the
Queen in my pocket. But-good heav-
ens-where was that letter Of cred
ence to be found Could it have been
among the papers which 1 had lock-
ed up in my desk at the Office of the
Legation7 1t must have been, but
what was to be done now9 To drive
to the Legation and from there to the
palace was impossible. We could on
ly have arrived at the palace half an
hour after the time appointed by the
Queen. That the Queen should be
made to wait for a foreign gentle
man in plain evening clothes could
not be thought of. Only bold stroke
could save the situation; and such a
stroke | resolved upon. I took news
paper and put in carefully folded
into a large envelop Of tic official
size, which | inscribed to 'Dona Isa-
bella, Queen Of Spain. This envelop
[ would hand to her Majesty at the
ceremonial"

April McClure's fairly bristles with
affidavits and documentary evidence
that place in the readers hand facts
OF the life of Mrs. Eddy during her
wandering as professional quest,'
in the late sixties when she was evolv-'
ing her Science" and alternating be-
tween teaching Quimby's art Of heal
ing and dabbling in Spiritualism.
Among the many Illuminating affi-
davits, Miss Milmine puts before us,
is one made by Mary Ellis Bartlett, a
portion of which we quote:
Gone night in the autumn of 1867,
as nearly as I can fix the date, a
woman, stranger, came to my
grandmother's door, and told her
that she had been led by the spirits
to come to her house, for the reason
that it was "a nice, harmonious
home.' My grandmother, who was
sympathetic and hospitable, and,
above all, devoted Spiritualist, who
would never turn another Spiritualist
away, upon hearing this, exclaimed,
GLORY to God! Come right in!' The
woman thus admitted told my grand
mother that she was Mrs. Mary Glov-
er, Spiritualist, and that she had
been drawn as above described to my
grandmother's house. Mrs. Glover
did not explain further why she came
and did not say from what place she
had come. My grandmother gave her
the use of the bedroom over the
spiritual room, and also the use of
the spiritual room. Here grandmoth-
CT and Mrs. Glover continued to hold
spiritualistic seances, in which Mrs.
Glover took an active part, passing
into the trance state and giving what
grandmother believed to be communi-
cations from the spirits.'

Historical Documents.

AS contemporary history is the sort
oftenest disputed it is interesting to
note the growing use of anidavits and
similar data by the pro-
davits and similar data by the pro-
minent writer's Of present day his
tories. A case in point, Georgine
Milmine's "Mary Baker G.. Eddy,
the Story of Her Life and History
Of Christian Science" appearing in
MeClure's Magazine, most strongly
shows the trend toward the use of
this sprt of indisputable evidence.

which are thought to be about $15,-
600 on the burnt district.
AS a rule most Of the business
firms were insured but some Of them
were only poorly insured. Shelley
and Summer met with serious losses.
There is an undercurrent of feeling
here with regard to the water sup
ply. The public utility commission
appears to be under fire and an cleo
tion is to be held here next week
as to whether the Commission which
has charge Of the water works, cleo
trio lights and sewerage should be
abolished and the duties assumed by
City council or not. Some suggest
that the Commission is not in politics
and that such public utilities should
remain i'll charge Of men who have
made a study Of them and are bust
ness men, others think that it is best
to transfer the authority to Council.
Some suggest that the Commission is
not given sufficient authority and
that it has persistently wanted to
buy an additional pump to be pre-
pared for just such an emergency
as arose today; while on the other
hand it is contended that the Com
mission has ample funds at its con-
troll and could have bought all the
pumps it wanted. Then this is dis
puted on the line that the Commission
had no legal authority to go into
debt for a pump without the distinct
approval Of Council. The contention
is made that Council is not undertake
ing to abrogate the authority Of the
Commission but all the same the issue
is acute and there is to be an election
on it on Tuesday and this seems to
be about the only issue that is to
follow the fire, unless it be the
building Of better buildings and
homes in this wide awake city.
1t is said that the turning on of
the water from the Mollohon and
Newberry Cotton mills did much to
save the day and perhaps saved the
home Of Mr.. L. w. Floyd. It is said
that these cotton mills have reserve
tanks and that by connecting this
supply with the city mains some pres
sure was given when most needed.
Dynamite was used on some of
the smaller buildings to get them
out Of the way Of the fire. A row
Of cottages known as POOLS row was
gotten out Of the way with modern
dynamite.
There were no accidents, no in
juries and no undue excitement over
the fire. Newberry regrets the SER
ious loss and sympathizes with those
who suffered. City council tonight
made an appropriation for the relief
Of those who suffered most. The city
will go right ahead with its develop
ment and new and handsome buiid-
ings will in time take the place of
those that were burned today.

Our excellent water supply did not
help us much yesterday when we most
needed its help. Whatever the cause
may be the fact remains that the most
disastrous fire in the annals of New
berry occurred yesterday and we
were helpless to stop the spread of
the flames for lack Of water The
Herald and News does not criticize
anyone but only states the facts. If
there had been the ordinary pressure
when the alarm was first sent in the
department. could easily have con-
fined the fire to the Williams build
ing where it originated and saved
thousands Of dollars Of property, but
for lack Of water all of us had to
stand and look at many residences go
up in smoke. 1t may be that acci-
dents will happen to the most per-
feet systems but it does seem if the
stand pipe was full that there should
have been more pressure in the hy-
drants.
