Axes "Were Useful, Because Widows Don't Cost so llnch as Cripples. 0PJ2E1TI0KB OF THE CLAIM AGEKT f K1TTXX rOB IDS DISPATCH.! tiekk an I.E -E 1 uoccweTtr HE Texas Central is cow one of the great railroads of the couiitry, but when I first knew it it ran only from Houston to Bryan, and had no railroad con nection beyond the latter place. The rails were of iron, and, the road hiv ing been cheaply made rSj), . an" rapidly constructed, " rf ' was as dangerous to -" ride on it as to sit on a bucking cayuse with burs under tht saddle. The ties had been scattered on the prairie, &cd after being arranged in as near to a straight line as the eye of an inebriated sec tion boss could iocus, the rails were spiked to them in about the same haphazard man ner. As a consequence the rails spread and twisted here and there, and accidents were eo frequent that the road was known, locally, as "the angel maker." "When Jay Gould made a trip over the "toad he told a. reporter of the Houston Post M Gave Him a Stutter. that he counted a wreck ou every section for twenty miles, "which," said Air. Gould, "must be raiher discouraging to the stock holders." The Post, that wasn't at that tim throwing any bouquets to Mr. Gould, com menting ou this said that if Gould got con trol of it he would wreck the whole road at one whack, which would be still more dis couraging to the stockholders. The Pott on another occasion said: "At a meeting of the stockholders of the Central Bailroad yester day, it was decided that, owing to the number of cows and other persons recently killed and maimed on the road and the con sequent damages to be paid, a further issue of bonds was necessary." A 'w'OODEJf IiKG OE A GOLDEN HAEP. Talk about "takintr your life in your bands," why, you could not have even that satisfaction if yon made a trip over the Cen tral in those days. Your life was in the bands of a corporation that oonsidered it cheaper to give your widow a check than to straighten out rails or ponnd ballasts be tween the ties, and you were in blessed luck if your trip resulted in the possession of a wooden leg instead of a golden harp. It was on this road that the Northern drummer, new to our crude railroad methods, bad an experience one night that tinged his hair with gray and gave him a stutter in his speech that he has n-ver since got rid of. He Was attempting to talk to a man who was trying to sit in the same seat, but the drum mer had to bold on to the iron arms of the seat with both hands, and the jar and jolt ol the car as it jumped from rail to rail, and swayed from side to side, jolted the words out of bim in syllables and made bim a permanent stutterer. He was like the old woman who was behind a runa way team and who "trusted in Providence till the.britchen broke," for he ceased to trust in anjthingand care up all hope when he was thrown across the car and uas then slammed back again as the car began pound ing over the ties. He was about to throw himself out of the window when the train began to run along in a comparatively Setting a Price on the Cow. smooth manner, and he settled back in his seat and hope once more took the place of despair. BUNKING BT THE COMPASS. After awhile, as the conductor passed through the car.tbedrummersaid: "We've st ruck a p p piece of goo goo good track now, con due tor?" "Trackl "Why, man, we've been off the track for the latt ten minutes, and we are now running across the prairie by the 'com pass." There was a bright and shining new ax strapped against the end of each car and over it was printed: "To be used only in case of accident." "What do you do with the ax in case of accident?" said the English tenderfoot to the brakemac. "Don't you know," said the brakeman, "that when a man is killed in a wreck the road seldom has to pay his widow more than two or three thousand dollars, but if be has only a lee or arm cut ofl he is right on deck to fight his own case. He gets the bj m pa thy ol the jury every clatter, and a verdict for ten thousand or more. Oh, it Fays to use the ax in case of accident. Now, 'rinstance, if we was to tumble down an embankment, as ire are liable to do any minute, ana you was to lose a couple of legs or so, it would be my duty to take that ax and baste the immorUl English soul out of yon. I tell you it pays the road to have them axes usd in case of accident, and don't fail to let that fact perculate through yonr British intelleot." "Dear me; Just fawncy. What a beastly Ideal" STOPPED TO BUT EGGS. One train used to go up on the Central and one come down daily. As the road did not have to connect with any other road, there was an absence of haste that was de lightful and an irregularity in the matter of schedule time that would hare done credit to a Waterbury watch. Once I saw the conductor stop the train at a crossing nd wait till an old farmer in a wagon SPW -- SAuK. K wjw ft Hill fiJ VL . "Morn John," said the conductor. "Howdy, Cap?" "What's eggs?" "Fifteen." "Jlany von got?" "Ten dozen." 'Give vou twelve and a half." "Won't take it" "All aboardj go ahead." Then the tram, as if disappointed in not getting a longer rest, strained and groaned and puffed and slowly started. When about 100 yards from the old man he arose in the wagon, waved his arms and veiled: "Hi, Cap! I'll take it." The conductor yelled back, "Alright," signaled dawn brakes and the train stopped. The old man drove alongside and counted into the conductor's basket, three at a time, ten dozen eggs, and we proceeded on our journey. Major Wyckoff was the claim agent of the Central road. It was bis dutv" to settle claims made against the railroad company by those who bad suffered loss by any act of the company or of its servants. Sometime the train would put on a bnrst ot speed that would eoalde it to overtake an $8 cow that as going lippetyskit down the road. Then across the peace ul landscape would be scattered rib roasts, porterhouse steaks and other component parts of an ordinary Texas menu. THE TEESTJADINO BUSINESS. As soon as the owner could find Major Wyckoff he tried to persuade him that the cow, being of the imported Brahma Pootra breed, and having been for years the close companion of his departed wile and the playmate of his orphan child, she was in life worth to him $60 This amount he de manded, generously waiving his right to the much larger sum that represented the ex tent of the damige done to bis nervous sys tem through the shock occasioned by the news of her sudden demise. It was the Major's duty to persuade the owner of the deceased that his cow was worth only 58. I have heard him put the case to the claimant in this way. "Supiiose we grant that the cow was worth $G0 when alive. It is not a live cow you want us to pay for. Until the cow was dead you had no claim against us. As she stood there on the track chewing her cud, and unlawfully expectorating all over our expensive roadbed while she gesticulated with her abbreviated tail at the buffalo gnats it could not reach, she was yonr cow. At that time the late lamented may have been worth $60 She is now, alas, dead, and an imported Brahma Pootra cow when dead is worth no more than the remains of an every day long-horn. See? Catch the argu ment, don't you?" "Yes, it sort of looks straight, but I want "Well, you can't get it, not for that as sortment of soup-bones and damaged meat up the road; no siree. Here's a $10 bill and a receipt to sign." The receipt in such cases was usually signed. THE MAJOR -WENT LOADED. The Major alwavs carried a pocket full of money and blank checks, and a pad of printed receipts that when signed by claim ants relieved the railroad company from all further claims and bound the claimants ioreverand a day to sing the praises ot the Central as the most generons road that ever mutilated a human being or split a cow in two. I was going down to Houston one day when the train on which I was aboard ran into another train. It was almost dark when the accident happened. The glare of the burning baggage car, the hiss of escap ing steam, and the shrieks of wounded men I and women heightened the impressiveness of what the railroad modestly called "the incident" Ontof the gloaming into the light of the burning car came Major WyckofiJ who had been aboard the north bound train. He had a roll ot money in one hand, blank receipts in another, and a pencil behind his ear. "Here, lend a hand," he said to me, "and help me to feed money to these dying people," We found none fatally hurt Some bad a foot or band crushed, and others were cut and scratched witn broken glass. "Don't waste time," said the Major to me. "From flO to $100 is the right caper for a foot or a (eir fingers. Go as high as $500 for a leg, but see you don't miss anyou this tram, I'll work the other. Give them all something, even if they have cot nothing wore than a ruptured umbrella." HOW THE MA JOB OPEEATED. Then the Major began on a working man who had been slightly cut on the hands and lace. "Poor fellow, I'm sorry for you, but yon are not much hurt" "Oh I am dying, I am dying," said the frightened man as he rolled on the ground, "lam lull of glass. I can feel it jingling al1 around in my insides now. I know I'm going to die." "Tut! tutl" said the Major, "that's noth ing. Here's 510. Go to the drugstore and get some plaster on those cuts and yon will be alright to-morrow." The man took the $10. "Sign this receipt, quick now." The man signed the receipt "Now die, confound jou, die, if you want to," naid the Major as he hurried away to another case. And so he went from one to another of the wounded, paid one $15 for the loss ol a few teeth, another got $200 for a brazen leg, and so it went, and everybody signed receipts and everybody was satisfied and bappy. I tell you those were good old days down on the Texas coast I was young then and I found a good deal of enjoyment in life, tor when I was not having the yellow Jever, or not in hospital nursing a gun shot wound, or having a section of my anatomy sewed up alter a railroad accident, why, the rest of the limo I was "generally so as to be usually able to be about" J.

Huaus & Haoke. . xxssa THE IN A 'FOREIGN LAND. The Passionist Fathers from the States in South America. AN AMERICAN CATHOLIC CHURCH Dedicated With Imposing Ceremonies at the City of Buenos Aires. WHERE PITTSBURG MEX AEE LOCATED Mr. Charles Abel, who lately returned from South America, where he had been working up Pittsburg business interests, gives an interesting account of the laying of the corner stone of the first American Cath olic church erected in South America. It is under the management of the Passionist Fathers and is located at the corner of Calles Estados Unidos and Caridad, in Buenos Aires. It stands at the side of the Holy Cross Chapel, the first establishment of the Passionist order in South America. In its construction was used much material gotten from the United States and some ot it from Vesign of the New Building. Pittsburg. The mission was established by Father Fidelis, of Kenyon College, in 1880. The ground was purchased in 1880 for ?12, 000 and is now worth 5500,000. On the ground is the original chapel and St. Eoque's Eetreat, a small one-story building, constructed largely of corrugated iron, the remains of an exposition building bought from the Government. The congregation of English-speaking people has been steadily growing. They are mainly Irisb, and some ot them immensely wealthy, having fortunes rnnning from $1,000,000 to $20,000,000, and are known as the Vanderbilts of the Argentine Eepublic. They made their money raising cattle. They all speak Spanish, and also have their children taught the language as a business necessity, and as they are addressed by Spanish titles the blending of the titles with such names as Duggan, O'Farrell, Murphy, Gahan, eti, sounds very strangely to the visitor until he gets accustomed to it. For instance, the first time he is introduced to Don Patricio Duggan or Senora Mullaly, the interchange seems like pleasantry. PITTSBUEO TATHEES ABBOAD. There is a branch of the Passionist order established in Chili, where Father Stone is at present in charge. It is near Mire Mar, or Sea View. Among those there are Fathers Louis, Andrew and Fidelia, of The Corrugated It on Structure. Pittsburg. They have also a mission at Carmen de Artas, 60 miles from Buenos Aires. This was founded in 1886, and in tended as a novitiate for the education of theological students. They are also build ing a church there. As American mission aries they have introduced many American improvementsand customs. Father Fidelis is the head of the order in South America. At present Father Constantine, well known in this city, is in charge in Buenos Aires. Well known PittsDnrgers also in Buenos Aires, are Father John Joseph and Brother Everesto. The Argentine Eepublio has lately suf fered greatly from commercial depression, and the people are not well able to cope with financial problems, but the resources of the country are inexhaustible, and gold has fallen in price from 315 to 220. THE CEKEMONT. The corner stone of the new edifice was laid on Sunday, May 4. The Minister of War sent a military band of musicians, and there was an enormous attendance. The decorations were on a soale seldom witnessed and consisted of wreaths, flowers and flags of several nations, the American fits being very conspicuous. Eev. Father Edmund preached the bermon, hN subject being the mission of the Passionist Fathers of the Eiver Platte and their exertions for the spir itual welfare ot the Irish people. He offi ciated lor Father Fidelis, who was unable to preach on account of having been kicked by a mule some time aeo while crossing the Andes. The ceremony was of the usual or der. The sponsors were Mrs. Thomas Duggan, Mrs. Quirke, Mrs. James Carthy, of Navarro, (not present, but represented by Mrs. John Duggin), Thomas Gahan, of Lobos (represented by his son, Don James F. Gahan). Don Pa- A Part of the Property. tricio Ham and Edward Kenny. A collec tion taken produced sevenl thousand dol lars, and Mr. Ham paid 5100 for the trowel used by the Archbishop in laying the stone. The Irish, American and Argentine flags flouted over the work, and the band played nntil late in the evening. In addition, to those above named the fol lowing named repre'entitive Irish families were present: The Kellys, O'Farrels, Mnr phy Mackens, Mullaleys, Bellastys, Tyr relis, Cunninghams, Carmodvs, Gannons, Lufferns, Davisons, Brrnes, Wvses. Sum mers, McKeons, Martins, Harringtons, Creightons, Kehoes, McCormacks, Kava naugbs, Flannagans, Acbars, Mackens, Ma hons, Dillons, Nevini and Daleys. DETAILS OT THE BUILDING. The edifice will cost $200,000 or more. It will be built of common brick and covered with stucco, as pressed brick and good stone arc difficult to get to Buenos Aires. The roof will be of tile, as all roofs are in that country. The architectnre will be in the main Gothic, with some variations; dimen sions, 19x42U meters; height of tower, 80 meters; windows, stained glass; floors of 1 n W H f r lira ' r PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, order to obviate the necessity of carpets, which mnst be used on marble and tile floors for congregations that spend much of the time of service on their knees. There will be movable pews, an innovation in that country, where most churches are minus them. There will be five altars. The ceil ing will be of iron and will be furnished by Northrup & Co., of the Southside. The nave will be supported by light stone in stead of pillars. Though the English are supreme in Buenos Aires and surrounding country, the master spirits in this enterprise, being American1:, have done much in the way of introducing our sanitary appliances and various conveniences hitherto unknown in South America. Mr. Abel says the people appreciate their untility and are gradually growing to want them. The water supply of the city is pumped by American machin ery. HAPPENINGS AT HONOLULU. WANT OF CONFIDENCE EXPRESSED IN THE CABINET BY THE PEOPLE. A New Cabinet Appointed by King Knla Itnua The Attorney General of the Llttlo Isle Severely Ceoinrcd tor an lllesnl Decision The Proposed Treaty With tho Unltrd States. Saw Fbancisco, July 5. The steam ship Mariposa arrived to-day, 25 days from Sydnev and seven days from Honolulu. Hawaiian advices state that on June 17 King Kalakaua appointed John Adams Cummins, Minister of Foreign Affairs, vice Jonathan Austin, resigned; Godfrey Brown, Minister of Finance, vice S. M. Damon, re signed; Charles N. Spencer, Minister of the Interior, vice Lorin A. Thurston, resigned, and Arthur P. Peterson, Attorney General, .vice O. W. Ashford. On Friday, June 13, Noble Widemann introdnced a resolution in the Legislature declaring that, whereas, it was apparent that the constitutional advisers of the King were irreconcilably divided against them selves, and, it being impossible to heal dis sension in any manner except by a dissolu tion of tbe Cabinet, it was resolved that the Assembly mark its dissitisfaction with the existing state of affairs by declaring a want of confidence in the ministry. Previous to the introduction of the reso lution Minister Austin replied to the charges made against him by the majority report of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, denying that he disobeyed the instructions ot the House to lay before it the documents re garding the proposed treaty with the United States, or that he had abstracted important documents in relation to that matter on the plea that they were personal communica tions. On tbe introduction of the resolution Eepresentative Brown, stating that there was a greater principle at stake than the in tegrity ot the Ministry, namely, that the majority should not rule, offered amendatory resolutions declaring that, whereas Minister Ashford has advised the King to refuse to follow the advice of a majority of the Cabinet, which advice the Attorney General, the Supreme Court passed upon and declared illegal and unconstitutional, the Attorney General, however, persisting in his advice to the King, it was resolved that such assertion of the principle of the right of the minority to rule was subversive to constitutional, rep resentative government, and that the action of the Attorney General was deserving of the severest censure and condemnation of the House, which did thereby declare its lack of confidence in him. A protracted and warm debate followed, in which the Attorney General and some members of the Legislature took the ground that that body could get rid of one member of the Mimstrv only by passing a vote of want of confidence in the whole Cabinet. The vote on Brown's amendment resulted 24 to 24, a tie vote of all of the elective mem bers of the House, including the President. The Cabinet promptly resigned". PEEPAEIRO FOE NEXT xEAE.

In the summer of 1888, bloody flux was epidemic in Scioto county. Ohio. Whole families died from it. In August, 1889, it broke out again and caused some 10 or 15 deaths, but a new remedy was then intro dnced, hitherto nnknown in that county, which effectually checked its ravages. The following letters explain the nature of the disease and give the only successful treat ment: Otwat, Scioto County, Ohio,, Sept. 21.1SS3. Chamberlala A Uo., Des Moines, Iowa. Gentlemen I tried Chamberlain s Colic, JCholera and Diarrhea Eemedy on my son in a very bad case of bloody flux, during the epidemic of that disease in this county, in the summer of 1888, and it per formed a wonderful cure. He had been bad for about a week, having from six to ten operations of the bowels hourly. Alter taking the first dose of this medicine he did not have an operation for about four hours, and after taking it a few days was well. It was a surprising cure. Since then it has cured my wife and my little girl; also Annie Kennedy, S. Eiley, G. W. Riley, Chas. Tumbleson, Jr., and others. I think it is the best medicine for bloody flux on record, and had it been here a year ago a thousand bottles could have been sold and many lives saved. Madison Mustabd. Mobb Explicit. Had I known that yo'u desired to publish my letter of the 24th inst. as a testimonial to the virtues of Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Rem edy I would have been more explicit. I was the first person in this vicinity to try the Eemedv. My son had been very bad with bloody flux for about one week and was getting worse very fast. All of the remedies for flux that I knew anything about had been tried en him and railed to benefit him. I was just starting for the best known flux doctor at Earden, when I heard of this medicine. I got a bottle and tried it as I wrote you. My son was in a very precarious condition, having a very high fever and an awfnl soreness of the abdomen, and, as I said in my letter of the 24th inst., from six to ten operations of the bowels hourly. The first dose gave four hours' re lief, the second and third about the same. Alter giving three doses ol the medicine, we gave a doseof castor oil, as you direct, which operated in fiiteen minutes. As soon as the castor oil operated we pave the Eemedy again. The castor oil operated at just nine o'clock at night and he went to bed at once and slept until after daylight the next morn ing and, you may say, was cured. It ap peared in all the cases of bloody flux in which Chamberlain's 'Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Eemedy was tried that the patient found no relief from the awful sore ness of the bowels until after taking the castor oil. All that I have known to use the Eemedy have found about the same cure that I did. There was no failure, as I know of its curing others in the neighbor hood. As I told yon in my former letter, the Eemedy cured my wife and little girl of flux. They were just taking it in a very violent form, but one dose gave relief for nine hours, and three doses and one dose of castor oil cured them. ,It also cured my boy of a violent pain In the stomach. One dose did it. Yours truly, Madison Mustard. Ot way, Scioto county, O., Sept 30, 1889. A Complete Cube. About August 18, 1889, during an epidemic of bowel com plaint in this vicinity, I was attacked with severe cramping pains in the stomach and bowels, followed by an unnatural discharge at intervals of about 20 minutes. The stool consisted of mucus mixed with blood. Alter other medicines bad failed I tried Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Eemedy, which effected a complete cure. Moses A. Thompson, Henley, Scioto county, O. Mr. Thompson's disease was dysentery in a severe form. It is commonly called bloody flux when the discharges are bloody. C. & Co. Cubed by Thbeb Doses. I take great pleasure in saying Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Eemedy is a number one medicine, and I think it will do even more than is claimed for it. During the epidemic in this county last August my lit tle boy, aged 3 years, was taken with bloody flux in a severe form. When my wife com menced giving Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea remedy the discharges were bloody and unnatural. Ater the first dose was given he began to get better and CO CD LU O o -J or A- D Q O LU h- DC o -J LL LL Z o z . nuiTi i I Umi i "mi. i ill ' ' THE GCING TO WE ARE For if you wait for our sale you may not 01E OF THE ELECTRIC CARS L Convenient and easy access to the center of the Southside and the city 2.

I used Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Eemedy for a bad attack of diar rhea last summer and was completely cured bv two doses. I do not know ot a single in stance where this Eemedy was used during the epidemic of flux and diarrhea in this place last summer hut what it gave perfect satisfaction. In many instances other medi cines had tailed to do any good when they began to use this Eemedy. It is certainly a sure cure for diarrhea and bloody flux. J. C. B. Oskin, Otway, Scioto coun ty, O. A Sube Cuke fob Diabbhea. Last Sunday I was suffering with a severe attack of diarrhea, which had been troubling me for four days. I used two doses ot Chamber lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Eeme dy, which promptly cured me. I consider it a sure cure tor diarrhea and flux. J. G. Hazelbakoe, J. P., Otway, Scioto county, O. The Gbeatest Benefit. Myself, my wife and a lady living with us used Chamber lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Eemedy for bloody flux during the epidemic of that disease in this vicinity, and received the greatest benefit You may say that after the first dose was taken they were virtually cured. But alter taking three doses of the medicine we each took a dose of castor oil, and when that operated it relieved the sore ness of the abdomen and effected a complete cure.
