ANOTHER RAILWAY HORROR.
Fifteen Killed and Over Fifty Injured In
Wreck of a Footbal Train Near
Indianapolis.
Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 31.-Fif
teen persons were killed and over
50 injured, some fatally, this miorn
ing by a collision between a special
passenger train onl the Big Four
railroad and a freight engine draw
ing coal cars. The accident hap
pened in the edge of the city. The
passenger train of 12 coaches was
carrying 954 persons, nearly all of
whom were students of Purdue uni
versity and their friends, from La
Fayette to Indianapolis for the an
nual football game between the
Purdue team and the Indiana uni
versity squad for the State cham
pionship which was to have been
fought this afternoon.
In the first coach back of the en
gine were the Purdue football team,
substitute player- and managers.
Three players, the assistant coach,
trainer and seven substitute players
of the university team were killed
and every one of the 53 other per
sons in the car were either fatally or
seriously hurt.
Whil,: the work of rescue was
going on there arrived in the city
over goo cheering followers of the
red and white of Indiana university
at Bloomington.
As the happy and excited stu
dents poured from the train news
of the tragedy to the black and
gold of Purdue was received. In
stantly all was sadness and sym
pathy. The throng melted into
sorrowing groups that separated to
search morgue and hospital for
friends, or took cars for the scene
of the wreck to lend any possible
aid.
Surgeons are still working over
the injured, and it is believed the
death list will be swelled to 20.
THE CIRCUS IN GREENWOOD.
The Mayor Arrested the Manager and
Treasurer and Employes-All
About a License.
Greenwood, October 31.-At one
time last night it looked as if the
great Barnum & Bailey show would
have to miss its engagement in Co
lunibia, for the reason that the
county jail was filled with about
twenty of its employees, including
the general manager and treasurer.
The story of how this caie about
and the why of it is all intercsting.
The circus management had 0ob
tained tihe use of a piece of groun d
within the city limits before coin
ing here, but just before airrivinig
it was ascertained that they could
get a lot from D)r. R. B. Epting just
beyond tile city limits. They did
this and thought no dloubt that the
matter of a city license was easily
disposed of. HIowever when Gen
eral Manager Andrews camne to ar
range about tile license for the p)a
rade the trouble began. Mayor
Park told the general manager that
the scale of licenses was from a
mhinimumn of fifty dlollars to a maxi
mum of two hundred dollars, but
as the showv was not to take place
within t be city limits and the license
for the parade was the only thiing
lie would leave the matter to Mr.
Andrews's fairness, after having
statedl the anmonuxt fixed by ordi
nance. Mr. Andrews then offered
twenty- five dollars. This Ma ~yor
Park refused to consider, as the
amount was only half of thle mini
mum. Mr. Andrews at that time
refused to give more and with the
idea that both sides, the town and
the circus, were to look after their
own interests, he left. Before leav
ing lie offered the mayor sonic tick
ets, which lie dleclined. Having
intimated to Mr. Andrews that lie
was going to have the vendors
of tickets, baloons, etc., arrested for
not having a license Mayor Park at
onice instructed the police to begin
arresting the vendors of r sort.m

Mr. Andlrews was also at work and c
had these peop)le off the streets in a
short time. After the show, how-c
ever, the arrests began and soon
aibout sixteen men were in the
county jail, the city lockup beingi
too small to hold them. WVhen the ~i
general manager came up he, too, I
was arrestedl and jailed. Before his
arrest, and before the performance
even, he came back to the mayor
and offered the fifty dlollars. This
was refused, as the terms of the
mayor's first proposition would not

When the general manager was

for. It would be granted for the
appearance before the mayor the

The Story of John Sherman's Admission

Gen. "Jack" Caseman, the vet
eran railroad builder, wvho fought
during the civil war with Geni.
Sherman, and who was his intimate
friend until the latter's death, tells
the story of John Sherman's en
trance into the practice of the law,1
as related by his warrior brother,
says The Washington Star.
When John Slher: ian was quite
young he was takeni into the law
office of his brother Charles at
Mansfield, Ohio, to help about the
office and make himself generally
useful. One clay when lie was in his
21st year lie took Charles one side
and asked him qutietly for a loan of
$50.
"What!" Charles exclaimed.
"What do you intend doing with
so much money ?"
"I am going to Columbus to be
admitted to the bar," John re-]
plied.
Charles was greatly surprised, as
John had never asked him for any
advice regarding the profession,
nor had he ever appeared to be in
terested to any extent in the study 4
