A mortgage of What can dot And I wont that Jug it had a bottom in it then and took still drink of old rum from I noticed tho curious look on Urn of my wife and asked her what she thought of it for I sup posed she was thinking of what I had been talking about And so she for said I have thought of this a great deal and J nave thought of a way which I believe you can clear this mortgage off before five years arc ended tell me how do it Sbe thought for a while and then said with a funny twinkle her blue eyes you promise me this and mo moat solemnly and sacredly promise me that you will never bring home for the purpose of drinking as a beverage at any time any more yon can bring in that jug your father has used since knew him and which you have used since he has done with it Well I fcneW that father in a while especially in haying time and in winter when we were at work in woods to get an old gal lon jug filled so I that she meant that I should not buy more than two quarto at a time I thought it over and after little while told her I would agree to it mind said she you are never to bring homo any spirits than you con bring in that identical jug And I pro mice And before I went to bed that night I took tho last pull at the jug As I was turning it out for a sort of night cap looked up and says she Charles have you go a drop There was just about a drop left Wed have to get it on morrow- Then she said if had no objections she would drink that last drop with me I afaall cover forget how she said it that last drop However I tipped the old jug bottom op and got a great spoonful and that was enough said She took a tumbler and ft few drop of hot water into ft and a bit of sugar and then she her glass against mine seen us boys do when wed been drinking Heres to the old brown jug Sake alive I I thought to that poor Mollis had been more rum than was good for her and I tl you it kinder cut to tin- heart I forgot oil about how many times shed seen me when my tongue thicker

the twisted wood of the broken cars caught and to fiht re there wbb NOT A DROP OF and only some fifty able bodied men who still had presence of mind and enough to do their duty The only light was the of bridge and with so much of its aid fifty men went to work to fight the lames For four hours fought like fiend and for hours the victory hung in Earth was only weapon with which could be fought end so the attempt was made smother it out- There was not a pick or shovel to dig it up no baskets or to carry it and so desper ate were ihcy that they dog lingers down into the earth which a long drought had as bard as stone and heaped prec ious handful hardly won upon the encroaching Haines and with this earthwork built handful by handful the foe While this was going on oilier bravo crept wrecked cars beneath lire and wooden bars which held as prisoners so many prec ious lives end with prices of board sometimes their hand beat lack the was by an organ- gang is proven by the fact that morning out too sec tion purees all empty were in one heap It was a ghastly plunder ing and had the plunderers been caught this afternoon would sure ly have been lynched a There was incident of the acci dent which stood out more horribly than all of those horrible scenes In second coach was a man his wife and little child His name could not be but it is said ho got on at Peoria When the accident occurred the entire family of three was caught and held down by broken woodwork Finally the man turned to the friend and feebly take out first I afraid the child is dead So they carried out the mother and as the broken seat was taken off breast the blood which from her lips told how badly she was hurt They carried the child a fairhaired Woeeyed girl of and laid her the cornfield alongside of dying mother Then they went back for father and brought him out Both of his legs were broken but he crawled through the coin to the of bis wife and feeling her livid fea tures In darkness pressed some brandy to her lip and asked her how he felt A feeble groan was the only answer and the neat instant she died man felt the of his dead and child and cried out My God here is nothing more for me to live for now and tskfng a pistol out of his pocket pulled trigger The Army well were destroyed day i flames when they up alongside wont surely through his Aug All the rail way horrors country were sur passed three miles last night when an excursion train on Toledo Peoria Western road dropped through a burning arid over people were killed and four times that number were more or less badly injured The train was cemposcd of six sleeping cars six day coaches and chair cars bag gage It was carrying passen ger all excursionists and was bound for Niagara Falls train had been made up all along the lino of the Peoria Western road and excursionists hailed from various points Central Illinois the bulk of however coming from Peoria Some of the passengers from Canton El Paso Washington and in fact all stations along the line some from for west as Burlington and Iowa When train passed this it was boar and a half behind time next elation east of here is six rils off and the run there was seven minutes so terrible mo mentum of those fifteen coaches and two engines through space at rate of a mile minute can be understood train not stop at Chatsworth and sped by he small station at lightning ed Three miles east of is a little slough where railroad a dry run about ten and fif teen feet wide Over this was stretch ed an wooden trestle bridge and as he excursion thun dering down on it what was horror of engineer on front engine when he saw that the bridge was on fire Right leaped the flame and tho be was anion them no chance to slop Had there been warning ft- would Lave tafen half wile to onrushing of wood iron and human lives and the train within yards the riMsengcrof death before they flashed their into lie engineers he in safety the first engine sieplug the As It went over bridge beneath it and it could only lily been spfrdof train which saved the lives of the egilicrr and his firemao But the xod down the deed of death was tor car crashed into car coaches one top of another and the an eye nearly people AX DSATII more were so hart they could riot live As for wounded they were everywhere Only the sleeping who pinned down by a looked on while it if frit 9iu fioloi on were groans of ftnguUh of death mod certain less Til If could be extinguished and the cries of thoso loo badly hurt to care in what manner he was brought about so only it could be quick So they dug up with their bands reckless of the blood streaming- oat from under their finger mils and heaping it up mounds all tho while heart rending For Gods sake let us burn to death But finally the victory won and fire was put out after four hours of endeavor and as the last sparks died away a light came up in the east to take their place and dawn came upon the scene of horror While the fight had been on men had been dying and there not so wounded to take out of be wreck as there had been four hours before but in the meantime he country been routed help bad come from Forest and Piper City and as dead were laid reverently alongside of each in com field there were ready hands to take them into Chatswortb whilo some of the wounded were car ried to Piper City hundred and eighteen was poll of the dead while the wounded numbered four times that many The full tale of lib dead canape however be told yet for days A heavy rain set about hours alter the before the wounded could be taken away It rained for two hours Tho people are doing all they can for the wounded- Dr Karen of Fort Madison Iowa says train was running at miles an hoar when the a and found himself and wife fastened in the teats Ho pulled the

night did human hyenas plunder tho dead from this terrible accident and off the shoes which covered heir fret wretches are is not known Whether a band of pickpocket aecoinpsided he train or were lurk ing in vicinity cannot be said however ex ists them are who give it credence hat the accident was a de liberately planned case of ins the wm set on fire by who hoped to scire the op and fact that the
