GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAT
The big race has started, and what the re
sult Trill be nobody can tell. Probably no
contest in this city ever commenced under
more farorable auspices. Judging from the
attendance at the start, midnight as it was,
the event seems to have aroused consider
able public interest To a great extent a
contest, such as the one in question, is an
innovation here. True, there was a.142
liours' race here years apo, but in no respects
was it anything like tbe present one.
It would be difficult to find a more evenly
matched field than that which started this
morning. Two or three of the very best pedes
trians in the world are absent, bnt this only
equalizes matters amonj those who are here.
The great anxiety of many of tbe contestants
is to get over the first 24 hours. Justbefore the
start Peter Golden said:
A TESTIKC TIME.
"The first night and day is a trying time to me
and to many others. That time seems to test
eery part of one's stomach and inside. "When
we once get over that crucial point and our legs
keep right we can stay as a rule. However,
nobody knows wbat will happen in a night and
day race. The best men are liable to break
down."
The track is an excellent one: George Nore
mac contends that it is one of the best that he
has ever fet foot on. It consists of about three
inches of tanbark and sawdust, very tightly
compressed by a roller. It is soft and springy
and is satisfactory to all the contestants.
The attendants of the contestants are located
at the sides of the track, where small benches
are erected, on which refreshments can be
placed. The name of the pedestrian claiming
each particular bench is posted above the lat
ter. The beds of the contestants are not the
most attractive places of rest that one wonld
wish to see, nor are they the most comfortable
things in the world. They are, however, not
pat np for attraction, norltogether for com
fort. A littlerest, and rest only, is what they
are there for. In one corner Cartwright, Con
ners. Day, Hcgelman and 'Williams have three
beds for the five of them. Jimmy Taylor, one
of their attendants, explained this apparent de
ficiency by saj ing:
"Why. bless you, all the five will never want
to sleep at once."
There is considerable anxiety among many of
the contestants regarding the scoring. It is not
meant that the system adopted is not an ex
cellent and fair one, but many of tbe contest
ants bare an inherent fear that somebody will
rob them of a lap.
SOME STEOXG SAFEGUABDS.
Manager Davis has, however, pnt np the
strongest safeguards against any result ot this
kind. The scorers are all under oath, and are
under the constant supervision of a referee and
two official scorers. The latter and the "sheet
keepers" are located on the lefthand side of
the building when entering, and they present a
formidable array.
The interior of the bnilding is elaborately
decorated with Japanese lanterns, umbrellas,
etc. The appearance is exttemely attractive.
Tbe immense stage is reserved for ladies. The
band is located in the gallery, abont tbe center
of the building.
Jt would probably not be safe to say who
will win. nor how many will get over the limit
of 475 miles. That the entire 2G starters will
not last all week is certain. Many will soon
fall by tbe wayside, but the winner ought to
be found among Cartnright. Conners. Day,
Gpldenand Noremac. There is a very strong
Held against these five, bnt they have traveled
the road before, and done well.
THE STAET.
At 12 o'clock the crowd clamoring for admis
sion was so immense that before all were ad
mitted the start was delayed. The scene was
Intensely exciting, fully 3,'DOO people pressing
against tha doors. The efforts of policemen
seemed to be of no avail whatever in stopping
the extraordinary jam Several times doors
were crushed in. and the crowd became wild.
The pedestrians leisurely walked out of their
cots and viewed the noisy scenes with evident
interest. In short, the cron d was far beyond
the most sangnlne expectations. Hundreds
had their clothes almost torn off their backs.
Tbe pedestrians, however, waited patiently un
til an opportunity for starting presented itself.
Manager Davis started the men at 1245 amid
wild excitement. Noremac went away first,
bnt Cartwright soon took the lead, and covered
the first mile in seven minutes amid cheers.
He made the pace warm, and Hegelman was
close at his hccK Connors was a good third.
Cartwright made his second mile in five
minutes, with Hegelman about 50 yards be

remarkable heel and toe walking. At 1:30 the

BARNUM'S OPINION.
Tbe League's New Umpire Talk Abont the
ritubnrRs.
Umpire Barnum, of the National League,
passed throngh the city last evening on his way
to New York, where he will umpire the Chi-cago-AIl-Amcrlcan
game to-day. During Mr.
Barnum's short stay at Union Depot he talked
pleasantly about the Pittsburg club. He said:
-Wherever I go I tell people to look out for
Pittsburg. I think there Is a good team here.
The defeat of the team by Cincinnati amounts
to nothing. Tbe Cincinnati players have been
practicing about a month and are in good
shape, while the Pittsburgs had scarcely any
- practice at all when they met the Reds. I ex
pect the Pittsburg club to do well. I also ex
pect young Garfield to do good work, and!
may say tbe same of Allen. The latter's only
fault will be bis desire to do too much. It is a
good fault, but sometimes an injurious one.
Captain Dunlap, however, will undoubtedly
train him in tbe right direction.
"I have been umpiring some games at Co
lumbus, and I tell yon that there is a good club
in that city. The team will fool some of tbe
Association people. I am not in a position to
express an opinion regarding the respective
merits of the League teams. 1 think, nowever,
that Pittsburg is as strong as any in pitchers."

McAuliffe to earner.
New York. Aoril7. Jack McAuliffe, light
weight champion of America, left a deposit of
1250 with R, K. Fox yesterday, and challenged
Jem Carney, of England, o a ten-round boxing
match, Queenaberry rules, before the Pelican,
or any other London club that would give a
purse ot $2,500 to 35,000 a side for such a con
test This challenge was at once caDled to
England. McAuliffe and Carney, as all know,
met in America during the fall of 1SS7, bnt the
battle was never satisfactorily decided. The
referee declared it a draw, and so it has stood
since that time, each man getting his money
back. Now, what will Carney think, when
Jack wants tojeross the ocean to meet him!
THE REASON WHY.
Ward Folly Explains Hli Sefnsal to be a
Senntor.
Henry Chadwick writes as follows about
Ward's case:
1 went up to see John Ward last night at the
Marlborough Hotel, where he is still staying
with his charming wife, as happy as a king. I
found them getting ready to attend Dramatic
Editor Wheeler's literary reception that even
ing, but John gave me time for an interesting
talk with him about his baseball affairs, with
which the general public seem to be deeply in
terested. On my way up I noticed on the news
paper bulletins the words "Ward Refuses to Go
to Washington," and my first query was:
"Well, John, 1 see that you have decided not to
go to Washington." And his reply was: "Yes,
I think it is best for me to remain in New
York. But," he continued, "tbe papers this
evening give a very erroneous account of my
reasons for not signing with Washington;
especially in their reference to an alleged dis
like for the city and its people, and my opinion
of the strength of the team; in this they are all
wrong, and I shall write to the Washington
papers to remove such impressions; for it is
not on account of tthe city or the club's team
that I refuse to go there, but for far more im
portant reasons." But I need not go into de
tails in regard to the causes which have in
fluenced Ward to adopt the course he has done.
Suffice it to say that he has considered the
question entirely from the standpoint of its
effect on the near f utnre of his settling down
to the pursuit of the legal profession, and bis
permanent retirement from professional ball
playing.
The fact is. John is not physically in the con
dition to undertake the mentally harassing task
of managing or captaining a team this season,
and I think his wisest course would be to take
things as easy as possible this summer. This
he could do by rejoining tbe Giants' team as
short stop and as subordinate to the team's
captain. To go to Boston even if it were pos
sible, which it Is not would be no better than
his going to Washington, but to rejoin the New
York team would be comparatively a light
task. My own private view of the case is that
I think John has had considerable of his desire
to manage a team taken out of him by his ex
perience with tbe All-America team. His task
in running this team since October last has
been the most arduous piece of work he ever
undertook. His heart was in the success of
the team, and hence the mental fatigue con
nected with bis management of it. I really
think that John does not care half as much
about managing a team now as be did last
year. Tbe romance has been taken out of the
idea by Ms experience of the reality. He has
not intimated anything of the kind, but never
theless I think that is the basis of much of his
recent action.
AS OTHERS SEE US.
A St. LonU Opinion Abont Onr Ball Play
ers. A St. Louis correspondent of the Starting
Life thus writes of the Pittsburg team:
Horace Phillips and his Gas City team went
up against the champions yesterday, and they
came pretty close to getting a clean whitewash.
Latham, of the Browns, made his initial ap
pearance, and the three errors credited to his
team all belong to him. Freeman, the Browns'
youngster, pitched, and Bccklcy and Sunday
were the only men that found him. Rev. Mr.
Sunday heads the score card. Beckley was
given a reception every time he stepped to the
plate, and he responded with a pretty hit three
times out of four. Harry Staley is much heav
ier than when he played on the St. Louis
Whites-Staley Is a good man, and no one
knows Bis better than Manager Phillips. "Old
time Rocks" Galvin is well liked in St. Louis,
and his friends were out In full force to see
him. Jimmy had ten out of the 21 assists, and
he made but one error, and that on a difficult
foul after (to him) a long run. Coleman points
his stick at the pitcher, a la Joe Start, bnt be
was unable to find little Freeman. Billv
Kuehne and Galvin will double up next wiu
ter. and star the country, in either the "Two
Johns" or the -Two Dromios." "Pop" Smith's
mustache looks just as ferocious as ever. The
old man was a little stiff in his playing here,
but be will be all right when he takes a few
weeks practice. Fred Dunlap sports a dia
mond as large as tbe bottom of a beer glass. It
is the largest solitaire In the "-profesh." Cal
liope Miller's voice is a cross between a bnzz
saw and a threshing machine. He is a bard
worker. In attempting to capture a foul in
yesterday's game, he turned two hand springs,
a cart wheel and a flip-flap, and alighted in the
mud and missed the ball just by the sixteenth
part of an inch. Manager Phillips will never be
incarcerated in a lunatic asylum. Very few
bald heads can be found in "bug" houses.
ABOUT THE REDS.
Mnnnger Phillips Tblnk's Them Likely to
Win the Pennant.
Manager Phillips had the following to say to
a St. Louis reporter about the Cincinnati
team:
Manager Phillips and his Gas City team
arrived in StLouls yesterday morning from
Porkopolis, where they tested the strength of
Gns Schmelz's boys. "The Reds are in fine
trim," said the Pittsburg manager. "The
weather in Cincinnati has been exceptionally
fine this spring, and Schmelz has seasoned his
boys wonderfully. Why. they play a great
game now, and if they improve later in the sea
son, which they will certainly do, well it will
take a rattling team of hitters, base-runners
and fielders to down them. Our boys have had
no preliminary practice on the field, and they
are as sore as a lot ot dry goods clerks just out
of a band-box."
Harry Staley and Fred Dnnlap were both
asked their opinion of the Cincinnati club.
Dunlap said: "Scbmelz has a good team. In
Halllday and Beard he has two good men.
HalHday is a wonderful fielder he's a second
Welch or Hanlon. I think the Cincinnatis are
stronger than ever before, and I have watched
them pretty close."
"If they aon't win the pennant," said Staley,
"tben I will eat my hat; yes, and my shoes,
too."

rSFECIAL TTLZaHAM TO THE BISPATCn.1
LornsviXLE, Zr., April 7. Mr. James
Hunt and Mrs. Catherine Reynolds, of
Henry county, Ky., . had been "courtin"'
for some time. Mr. Hunt was a hale and
good-looking widower of 60. He owned a
fertile farm, a lot of fine live stock, and
had some money in the bank. Mrs. Reynolds
was a widow four years younger,, likewise
good-looking, and also the owner, of a good
jarm and live stock. Both Air.
Hunt and Mrs. Reynolds had
children grown and married, and these
young people were greatly opposed to their
parents marrying again. They did not de
lay in informing the old people that they
would not consent to such a thing. They
told Mrs. Reynolds and Mr. Hunt that they
were too old to think of marrying, and
ought instead to be looking out lor the fu
ture of their children. .
In obedience to the wishes of thir chil
dren, Mr. Hunt and Mrs. Eeynolds post
poned the marriage, but two months later
they again announced to their children that
they thought it was time for the wedding.
This raised a greater storm than ever, bnt
the old people concluded it was time lor
them to act, and since their children would
not allow them to marry at home, they
planned an elopement.
The other morning, very early, Mr.
Hunt took his two best horses out of.the
stable. He did it very cautiously, in order
to escape the observation of his eldest
daughter and her husband, who lived with
him. He galloped over to the farm of Mrs.
Reynolds, who was waiting at the barn for
him. The two rode to the nearest railroad
station, where they boarded a train for this
city; arriving at noon. They took a hurried
dinner at the Parmer's Home, and, fearing
pursuit, went over to Jeffersonville, on the
Indiana Shore, and were married by a
magistrate.
Mr. and Mrs. Hunt came back to the
Farmer's Home lor supjer,and the next day
started for Henry county, to ask the bless
ing and forgiveness of their children.

The Carpenters and Mnster Builders Bat
tling for the Mastery.
St. Louts, April 7. The Master Builders
Association No. 2 held a meeting at Druids
Hall last night, with President K. W.
Morrison in the chair. The chief business
transacted is embodied in the following
resolutions:
Resolved, By the master builders of St.
Louis, with a view of removing a wrong im
pression that may have been made on the
pnblic mind, that we reaffirm the resolutions
that we adopted on February 4, which are as
follows:
Resolved, That we accept as a day's work eight
hours from all carpenters in our employ, and the
rate per day to the best men or the maximum
wages, shall be 35 cents per hour.
Resolved, That no member shall recognize the
union of the Journeymen carpenters as an organi
zation, but that we remain free to employ all
workmen, whether members of the union or not.
In reference to the strike, the following
resolution was passed:
This is no fight between the builders and
workmen for wages or hours, as we consider it
an effort of certain outside agitators to com
pel the builders to recognize the Union of
Journeymen Carpenters, which constitute a
small membership of the carpenters of St.
Louis.
The document was signed by the names
of 108 of the builders and building firms of
the city.
The striking carpenters to the number of
1,600 met to-day and unanimously decided
to continueithe struggle for recognition of
their union. They refuse to accept the offer
of the master builders unless this recogni
tion is accorded. Communications from
other labor organizations were read proffer
ing sympathy and support.

PITTSBURG- DISPATCH,
BLOWERS GOING DEL
President Campbell Says Window
Glass Workers Favor Prohibition,
NOT AS ABODY.BUT AS AMAJOBITI
An Increase in Wages May Also Be De
manded In That Trade.
THE MANUFACTUEEBS. LOOKING AHEAD
t
President James Campbell, of the Window
Glass Workers' Association, has just re
turned from a tour of inspection of the
various window glass workers' lodges in
New York State.
To au inquiring Dispatch reporter he
stated yesterday that he had found the
window glass business to be, on the whole,
in a very good condition. He does not deny
that the price of glass is rather low, but
says he remembers the time when the men
got better wages, and the price of glass was
nearly as low then as at 'present. He at
tributes the chief cause of the decrease in
prices to the enormous growth of competi
tion which has been brought about by the
numerous new factories that have been
called into existence in some of the natural
gas districts.
"Wherever I have been," he continued,
while talking on the situation, "I have
lourid everybody at work. 'Of course there
area number of factories which work to in
crease their stoek; but they are riot many:
and, if we take all things into considera
tion, I think those factories are doing a wise
thing, because orders will continue, and
the man who can fill them most rapidly is
most likely to get the trade."
"Will the glassworkers ask for any in
crease in wages this year?"
"I do not know that Such a question
remains for the association to decide. If the
conditions of the glass, business warrant
them in doing so, they will not be backward
in giving their opinion in regard to wages.
All I have to say on the matter is: Maybe
they will, and maybe they won't."
"Will your association take any action in
regard to the prohibitory amendment ques
tion?" "I suppose so. Of course whatever will
be .the resolution of the organization does
not bind any individual member. The ma
jority of them are for the amendment, how
ever, as far as I know, and I have spoken to
a good many of them. If they should take
any official action upon the subject, there
fore, I think that it will be in favor of pro
hibition." LEWIS FULLY VINDICATED.
The Progressive Miners' Committee Ro
fuscs to Accept His Resignation.
A special from Columbus, O., says: John
McBride, President of the National Associ
ation of Miners, has received full reports,
and states that all of the miners are in favor
of sustaining last year's scale, while some
want the winter scale to extend to the sum
mer period. The operators will meet here
Tuesday to consider the reports from the
miners. A delegation of operators from Tus
carawas county says they will not only ask
for a reduction, but for the abolishment of
the differential of 15 cents in favor of the
Hocking "Valley miners.
The Executive Board' of the National
Progressive "Onion of Miners has taken a
vote on the resignation of W. T. Lewis,
Secretary, which was tendered at the con
clusion of the investigation, recently made,
of the charges preferred by .Bobert
Watchorn, and the result was a unanimous
refusal to accept the resignation. The com
mittee says he was vindicated by the re
port DRAWING THE iiRIYEES IN.
A Little Postponement of the Move to Ab
sorb Non-Union Dion.
The joint meeting of Local Assembly No.
7621, K. of L., and the non-nnion drivers,
which was called for yesterday afternoon at
Kanffeld's Hall, No. 1505 Carson street,
Southside, was postponed indefinitely on
account of sickness of one of the speakers,
who was to address the meeting.
President David Watt, of the assemby,
stated that the object ot the meeting was to
induce all njn-union drivers to join the K.
of L., in order to derive benefits from the
order, which, from lack of organization,
they are unable to secure.
The District Committee will arrange to
have matters consummated probably within
a week or two.
THE PUDDLERS STILL IDLE.
That Fallare to Connect a New Gas Line at
tho Amrrlcnu Works.
The puddlers at Jones & Laughlins'
American Iron Works, nnmbering about
450 men, are still without work on account
of the scarcity of natural gas in the mill.
The Jefferson Gas Company expects to con
nect another well to-day; and there is hope
that' the milltwill be going in a day or two.
' Nailers' Wages Reduced.
There seems to be no doubt of the, fact
that not only have the nail Manufacturers
in the mills in the Wheeling district been
moving in the direction of a reduction in
nailing wages, but that such a reduction
has been actually accepted by the men in
the Laughlin mill at Martin's Ferry. The
reduction atthe Laughlin mill only applies
to four-penny "nails and smaller sizes.
Glassworkers Idle at Homestead.
The window glass works at Homestead
have suspended operations for a week.

A MANIA FOR TRUSTS.
England Has Organized Nineteen This Tear
Capitalized at 25,075,000.
, London, April 7. The prospect in Eng
lish financial circles is very rosy just now.
During the past week Mr. Goscheu added
to the already abundant supply of money
and reduced the national debt by paying off
1,500,000 of 3 per cent consols.
Values in everv departmentare improving
and buying has been largely promoted by
the formation of investment trust companies,
the publiozeal for which is rapidly reaching
a mania. The total number of trusts formed
in 1888 was 15, with a capital of 9,500,000.
Already this year 19 have been floated, with
a capital of 25,075,000, and more are an
nounced, although it is known that existing
trusts find difficulty in obtaining sound in
vestments. During the week English railway securi-
highest point reached in many years.
BOULANGISTS EXULTANT.
They Think They Have Gained a Decided
Victory.
Paris, April 7. La France demands the
expulsion of General Boulanger. All the
newspapers admit that the result of the trial
of the leaders of the Patriotic League is a
rebuff to the Government. The Boulangists
are exultant over the outcome of the trial.
The Temps counsels the Government to
consider well the responsibility involved in
the trial of General Boulanger.
Boulangist journals assert that all the
f members of the BoulangistiXTational Com
mittee will he tried by the Senate.
Senator Montesquieu-Pezensac declines
to sit as a member of the exceptional tri
bunal. The Brussels correspondent of the London
Times says: Prince Victor Napoleon visited
General Boulanger here on Saturday. They
held a conference to-day in a restaurant in
the outer park.
INSULTED BY CHINA.

Jeers at Oar Navy.
Shanghai, April 7. Won Kwang Pei,
formerly of the Chinese Embassy at Wash
ington, advocates the expulsion of every
American in the service of China, as a re
prisal for the exclusion of Chinamen from
America. t t
In a memorial on the subject he refers
with contempt to the American navy, which
he declares would be powerless in an ag
gressive movement.

THINK THEY CAN CATCH THIEYES.
People Who' Imagine They Have n Special
Faculty for Detective Work.
Washington FSst-l
There is one old gentleman living in the
northwestern section of the city, who for
three years has been following up a clew
to the thief who stole his wife's
sealskin sacque, and he goes every
week to report his progress to the
inspector. He is now satisfied'that the coat
was stolen by a man who was seen talking
to a woman within a square of his house the
night the robbery occurred. He is certain
that if he could find the woman, the re
covery of the stolen property and the arrest
of the thief would be a matter easily accom
plished. Then there is an elderly lady and another
old man who consider themselves as a part
of the detective corps, and who are continu
ally making discoveries and obtaining clues
whenever a crime ofany-importance occurs.
All their fanciful information they impart
to the inspector with an air of mystery.
There are a score of others equally enthu
siastic. In fact, one-half the people who
are unfortunate enough to have to seek the
aid of detectives in the recovery of property
stolen from them, believe that they
should conduct the investigation them
selves, and pester the officers with the most
fanciful theories until the officers prove
their own superior knowledge by the recov
ery of the goods and the arrest of the thieves
in a quarter of whi"h the amateurs were
profoundly ignorant. Even members of
Congress and men of influence and position
are not without this particular and peculiar
form of vanity, and often insist that their
own theories be adopted to' the detriment of
,the service they are attempting to aid.
A CANINE FIEEJIAN.
An Irish Setter TJint Extinguishes Flames
and Eats Ashes.
New York Snn.i
Mr. Elmer Partridge keeps neither hand
grenades nor fire extinguishers in-his honse
on Halsey street, near Hill street, Newark,
because he owns a dog of the Irish setter
breed that can pnt out flames as quipkly as
a fireman, and with far less damage to the
threatened property. Twice he discovered
small fires in the nighlon his master's prem
ises, and pawed them out before he aroused
the family to show them his good work. On
both occasions he was slightlv burned. Mr.
Partridge has no doubt that if he had the
least fear that a fire was getting beyond his
control, he would sound an alarm at once.
A bundle of straw or newspapers ignited,
and a cry of "Fire" brings Dan, as the dog
fs called, at a gallop to the place. If he
cannot extinguish the blaze with his paws
he rolls his body over and over upon it,
quite regardless of the danger of singeing
his handsome red coat. But the strangest
part of his performance is the alterpiece.
As soon as he has- put out the fire he lies
down and deliberately eats all the ashes
with great apparent enjoyment The ani
mal is otherwise a vegetarian. He will eat
no meat, but devours vegetables greedily,
and delights, especially, in mashed potatoes.
LATTEE DAI SAINTS
Holding; no Enormous Convention of Dele
gates From AH Over tho World.
St. Joseph, April 7, The World'?. Con
ference of Latter Day Saints, which con
vened here to-day is the largest assembly of
Mormon representatives ever held in this
country. The preliminary proceedings of
Saturday were participated in by 500 dele
gates. To-day no regular proceedings were held,
but informal gatherings discussed various
matters tobe considered during the week.
Every train to-day brought in additional
delegates and to-night there are over 1,000
of them in the city, England having a
stronger representation than that of any
foreign country except Canada.
Australia has eight representatives.
Much feeling is manifested in the affairs of
the Mormon Church in Utah. The state
hood claims of the Territory will be put in
shape for presentation to Congress at Wash
ington. A communication from the Mor
mon General Conference, now in session at
Salt Lake City, arrived by mail to-day and
will be read at to-morrow's session.

Perilous Plight of a Train on the Prairie
Passengers Face an Awfal Fate A
Plunge From Darkness toUghr.
'Chamberlain, Dak., April 7. During
the terrible gale and prairie fires of the past
few days the train from the East had a terri
ble experience two miles east of Mt Ver
non. A destructive prairie fire "was raging
at that point,, and the dust and smoke made
the surroundings as dark as night The en
gineer plunged the train into the darkness,
and the first thing he knew he found the
ties on fire' for nearly a mile ahead. He
checked the train, fearing to advance lest he
should find no track ahead of him, and
there, in the suffocating smoke and scorch
ing beat, with blazing ties underneath the
train and flames on each side of the track,
the crew sought to extinguish the flames.
The passengers became excited and plead
ed to be released from the death by fire or
suffocation that seemed so near at hand;
childred cried from pain and gasped for
iresh air, and strong men became desperate
and left the train to fight the flames, only to
return to the coaches exhausted. For a
time escape .looked impossible, and several
of the passengers gave up; several ladies
prayed aloud, and some ot the male passen
gers swore at the obtnseness ofthe engineer
for going into that hell of fire and smoke so
far that he could not return.
The train crew and passengers worked
heroically, while Others went a few feet
ahead to see whether it was safe to move.
Behind, the road was on fire as far as the
eye could see, while ahead all was darkness
and mystery. But it was death to linger in
that cauldron of fire, and when the sur
roundings either meant moving or death the
effort was worth the attempt, and a start
was made. The suspense and horror of the
few moments required to pass over tbe
burning track and through the terrible heat
and smoke cannot be expressed, bnt the train
finally pulled out of the flames to fresh air
and safety.

A Strange Place to Live.
Washington Post. t
One of the most interesting sights in the
now exposed Lafayette Park is the pretty
domestic life of a couple of sparrows, who
have carefully built a nest for a future brood
of young birdlings right in the mouth of one
of the mounted cannons that have so long
kept silent guard around the central statue
of General Jackson, whose name originally
gave its designation to the square.

HOW TO SAVE LIFE.
What is a cough T It is an irritation of the
throat and lungs. What causes it 7 Conges
tion. Stop the congestion, tho irritation ceases
and the cough is cured. But how to stop the
congestion! Ah, there Is Jnst where physicians
have always been puzzled. Bat it must be
checked, or pneumonia, quick consumption or
some terrible pulmonary disease will follow.
Some doctors give cod liver oil, others cough
syrups, but the most advanced prescribe stim
ulants. Nature must be assisted. Pure whis
key will do it. See what nhysicians say:
Prof. Austin Flint, of Bellevue (New York)
College, says:, "The judicious use of alcoholic
stimulants is one of tbestnking characteristics
of progress in the practice of medicine during
the last half century."
Professor Henry A. Mott, of New York, says:
The purity ot Duffy's Pare Malt Whiskey (as
simple analytical tests will readily convince a
physician or an expert) shonld certainly recom
mend It to the highest public favor."
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is a certain cure
and preventive of congestion and should be
kept In every family. It is sold by all dinggists
and dealers. Be suro and secure tbe genuine.
