CAPT|VES BEING MALTREATEO
Chinese Bandits Kill Foreigne Because Ransom Asked Was
 Not Paid.

Peking, oct. 3.--Thc Chinese bandits who captured the town of Tsaoyang and took the American and Norwegian missionaries prisoners have shown that they are in earnest in their demands for a ransom for the foreigners.
 They have killed one of the children of a missionary and all the foreigners are being subject ed to indignitieS and malLreated. The foreigners of this city want io open negotiations with the robbers when the missionaries were taken prisoners to secure their release by the payment of the money asked by the bandits. They deferred out of respect to the wishes of the government of ticials, who expressed the fear that to do so would make every foreigner in the interior an ob- ject of capture by the bandits.
 It is believed that the only way in which the lives of the miSSiOn- aries can be saved ,is flor the ransom to be paid and let the government of the republic look to the punishment of the rob befs afterwards. The mis*ion- ary societies have notified the American and European govern mcnts of the capture and kill ing of the missionaries.

\ RAILROAD WRECK
The Mixed Train on the Milwaukee
Railway Goes in the Ditch Two
and Half Miles from Linton.

The first wreck of any consequence
which has yet occurred on this end of
the Milwaukee branch from Aber-
deem took place last Saturday after
noon about three miles south of Lin
ton. when the "mixed freight"
jumped the track, one man being in
jured and five cars demolished. 1t
is not definitely known just what
caused the trouble, some reports
having it that it was defective
wheel on one of the box-cars and
the other that the ties were rotten
and allowed the rails to spread a
little. The engine and one box-car
and the coaches were not injured,
although two baggage-cars left the
rails. The uninjured box-car was
next to the engine. and the two
broke loose when the second box car
went into the ditch. Those follow
ing piled on top of the first car to
jump the track. The rails were torn
and twisted for a hundred yards.
AL. Burlingame, formerly of Lin
ton. was making his way in one of
the box-cars that was wrecked, and
sustained broken leg and several
other injuries. He was brought at
once to Linton in the 9uninjured
box-car and DR.. Wolverton treated
him. He is not dangerously hurt.
He stated that another man was
with him in the hox.car when the
wreck came. but no trace of the
other could he found.
The passengers were brought to
Linton in the box-car and the
wrecking-train from Aberdeen at
once ordered. Sunday the track
was cleared and the trains were
again running regularly Monday.
Dozens of auto-loads of people
from Linton and surrounding towns
went to the scene of the wreck, and
Don Tracy got several post card
views of the same. A couple of
the cars were reduced to splinters
and others were injured beyond re.
pair. A tank of kerosene was one of
the cars to 90 in the ditch ,and kero-
sine a foot deep stood in the ditch
alongside the track. This was par
ticularly unfortunate for the people
of Linton. for the local supply sta
tion of the Standard Oil Co. had
been out of kerosene for several days.
and this car was intended to break
the oil famine. A small amount Of
oil was saved-onlv few gallons
but the town is practically without
kerosene until another car can be
secured.
We understand that none of the
train crew is held responsible in any
way.
