the Cubans bofeated Lancaster.
Anether Contest Te-day.
The Cuban Giants, the famous colored
base hall dub, inade lliclr second appoar appear appoar
ance this season In Lancaster yesterday
and succeeded In defeating the home club.
Thore were about 400 orseiis en the
ground, but this number would linve been
much greater had it net been for the
very threatening appearance of the
weather up te the time that the game
was mera than half ever. Although fhe
home team was defeated the audience was
delighted with the oxhlbitlen of playing
given by both teams. Seldom has it been
the fertune of Lancaster people te see a
better game tlinn that put up by the teams
yesterday. Beth went te work In earnest
and en account of the sharp and brilliant
fielding the game was evor In less than an
hour and a hnlf.
The pitchers were Carrell and Whyte,
and wbile both did geed work the
colored men seemed able te secure liltsjust
whenthey were met needed, whlle the
Lancaster had the bad luck te get them
when they were net of much account. The
Liinenster hit hard into the field, butovcry butevcry
tlilng seemed te go into the hands of their
epiKjiients. Selden, left fielder of the
Giants, made a catch of a very dllllcult llv
ball from Hlgby's bat which otherwise
would hae been a triple. Cellins also
made n wnndcrfitl catch. McGcttlgan,
Teak, Gragt and Harrison did home great
playing during the g.uiie. Thrce Lancas
ter men were thrown out at the home
plotej and two of these happened In the
ninth inning. The full score was as follews:

An Kxprem Train Derailed by Wrecker
la Mtmeurl at Night.
The west-bound train en the St. Leuis
San Fmcdace railroad, which left St. Leuis
1- rlday night at 8:15, was wrecked at a
point three mlles west or Sullivan. Net a
imxsonger eswipcd unhurt, and rbriy-rlve
arc known te have lieen seriously Injured.
The train was running at a high rate of
speed when suddenly, without warning,
the track gave way and the locomotive,
baggage car and five coaches went ever the
embankment.
The trainmen and these only slightly In
jured at ence set te work te prevent the
additional horror of tire, In which they
succeeded, and then turned their attention
te the mere unfertunate Injured, and in a
very short time forty-live jassengers, all
badly hurt, had been released from the
debris. A temporary hospital was Impro
vised nt Sullivan and the most serieuslv
injured were taken there, while ethors
were brought te St. Leuis en the relief
train, which was hurried te the scene of
the disaster. The wounded are under the
care eflir. Mclntyre, chler surgeon or the
read. ,
It was Ilia p. in. when the accident
occurred. The train whs traveling at a high
rale of speed and most of the passengers
had already gene te sleep, white the few re
maining awake were about te de se. There
Is a eurve In the read about three mlles
west of Sullivan, and when this point was
reached a sudden ielt and Inr wits Ml all
ever the train. Everybody felt It and the
people In the rear cars could hear1 the for
ward coaches rattling and rumbling ever
the ties and the crushing nolse of can
being demolished. A creek is crossed by
the read at that point and thore is a steep
cmlKinkment thirty act high. Most ofthe
jwssengers thought the train was going
through a bridge and a feeling of horror
chilled their bleed. In an Instant nil the
coaches except the two sleeping cars had
been thrown from the rails.
Peeple were thrown about in the cars In
all directions and some of them were
thrown from the coaches and down the em
bankment. Walter Davidsen, who travels
fur the Westingheuse air brake. was thrown
right out or a window en the oppeslto slde
en he coach from which he was slttlmrand
sent rolling down the embankment te the
eilge of the creek, with his feet in the
water. Anether jmssenger en the Mine
coach was tossed from the rear end of the
car te the forward end. The train proper
was made up of a mall car, en express car,
luggage car, a smoker, a ladies' car, a re-.
dining chair and two Pullman sleepers.
Hack of these sleepers were hitched live
empty coaches of the San Antenla t
Aranzas Pass read, which had beeu picked
up at Heme way station. The front truck of
thu tlrst sleeper Jumped ofTthe track,, but
the rest of the cars remained en and the rear
sleeper and empty ceaches behind It never
left the track, r ultimately thore was no
tires in any of the cars and the Jelt extin
guished the lights immediately. Most of
the forward cards were smashed Inte splin
ters. The explanation of it given by the train
men te the iiasscngers was that the spikes
and tishplalcs had been removed from the
rail at the curve, thus leaving the roll loeso
en the ties. The forward portion of the
locomotive passed the place all right, but
the tender Jumped the track and was
thrown iiart of tlie way down an embank
ment. Who removed the spikes and plates
is net known, but the supposition is the
work was dene by train robbers. The
read efllcials claim that it is a clear case of
train wrecking. On the train was a large
body of physicians returning from Spring
field, w here the state medical convention
is being held, and they also rendered valu
able, assistance In caring for the lnjured.
Among the latter was Dr. Russell, who ro re
ceived ery serious hurts.
A Missing Husband Appears.
Down in Relirsvillc, Mil., nearly
twenty years age, resided Abraham &
Smith, son of Jacob K. Smith, new do de
ce.ised, Abraham had a,wirq and daughter,
the latter new grown' te womanhood. Fer
some cause nil estrangement sprang up
between Smith and his wife, and he
left Ter parts unknown. Seme four
years age Jacob Smith, the father ,if
Abraham, died, leaving an estate te be
administered upon and divided among his
legal heirs, or which Abraham w as one.
His family, believing him te be dead, pro
ceeded In a legal manner te dlvide the
property. Under the seven-ycar absence
law the death of Abraham Smith was
proved in the orphans' court of (he county.
.mil letters of administration weie issued
te his daughter. Thus fortified she caine
in possession or a sum or money due her
father from the estate or the elder Smith.
Thus matters remained until a low ilavs
ae, when Abraham Smith apiieared In
Hiiiicrstewu, proved his identity uml made
claim te the money which he was entitled
te from his father's estate. Smith made no
rtlert te beceme reconciled with his wlfn
!.and daughter, and alter thus presenting his
ennui iiiiu leaving iiiu same Willi r.is attor
ney for adjustment, took his depaituroen

off of Dr. Cretilu. The efllccrln question
Is Detectlve Daniel Ceughlln, and the story
published Is te the effect that en the morn

peared, Ceughlln engaged at the livery
stable net far from whero Dr. Crenln lived,
a horse and buggy which he said a friend or
his sveuld call for that evening; that the
man did call and svas given a whlte horse,,
similar te the ene attached te the buggy in
which Crenln svas decoyed assay that the
time of going und the description of the
man corrcsend minutely with the ap ap ap
poarauceorthamnn htmcclr; that Cough Ceugh
lln subsequently cautioned the livery sta
ble keeper te say nothing about the matter.
Force is added te these revelations
from the fact that Ceughlln svas a member
or ene or mere secieties oCwklck.Creniiu
was a member and they wero enemies.
The matter svas finally brought te the
attention or Chief of Police Hubbard, svhu

The key te the Crenln mvsterv svas, In a

sincared cottage, which the police had al
ready decided ss-as the scene of the murder,
there was round by a detectlve en Friday
night 11 brand iiqsv kev.
Thoellleors decided at ence, te try It In
tlie lock of the mysterious trunk round by
the roadside the morning after Crenln dis
appeared. The key lilted exactly.
Thursday the elllccrs struck the due
which led te the discos ery of the cottage,
and, svnrkltig upon it.they secured descrip
tions or the men who, In alt probability,
svere the terpctraters orthe nsvftil crime.
Tsvoef them jNised as brothers while In
Idike Vlew, and svent under thu uamoef
Williams. The third man in all likelihood
was the horse llilcr Woodruff, or Black, as
he calls hlniself.
Win. II. Hntchklss, a reisirter of the

for all time. Under this decision no long
