PRBSIDBlfTlPBiTCER"-^ BILLED WHILE ASLEEP While Train Stood Still Big Passenger Engine Dashed into Rear End'and Ploughed Through?Body Was Burned Almost Beyond Recognition. Lynchburg, Va., Nov. 29.?Samuel Spencer, president of the Southern Railway Company, and recognized as one of the foremost men in the development of the Southern States, was killed this morning at 6:10 o'clock in a rear end collision in which two fast south bound passenger trains were involved 2 miles north of Lynchburg and a mile north of Lawyers depot. In the same wrecK three ot ms guests | were killed. Only Mr. Spencer's private secretary, E. A. Merrell, of New ^Tork city, and one of the three porters survived the accident. Mr. Spencer'8 destination was Friendship, N. C., where he was going on a hunting trip, with Messrs. Schuyler, Fisher Redwood and Merrell as his guests. President Spencer and his entire party, as far as it is known were sleeping when the collision happened and the probabilities are that all of them excepting Dispatcher Davis were killed instantly. It is certain that life was extinct before the flames touched -them. President Spencer's body was burned almost beyond recognition, as was that of Mr. Fisher. The body of Mr. Schuyler was taken from under the train before it was burned very much, having been singed only slightly President Spencer's car was attached to the rear of the Jacksonville train, which was standing still when struck. President Spencer was lying directly under the big locomotive of the rear train.. So great was the force of the impact that the forward train was sent at least 150 feet ahead, the locomotive going over and upon the body of Mr. Spencer. Until after the debris burned itself out and the engine cooled off, the bodies could not be removed. Tne impact drove the combination car forward and the express car lifted up together with its truck and crush+V>o nai> Af\ foof loaTrinor f.Vio TP. VV1 l/liv VOfi. XV iWVf iVU v iug VXAV AW mainder of the car strewn with tons of baggage and negro pass angers who were pushed back like rats as the express car crushed the combination car. The combination car did not leave the track in clearing and the express car was hauled to a siding a mile distant on top, and in the debris of the combination car. How the negro passengers in this compartment which i9 known as the "jim crow" part of the train, escaped, none of them being killed, is beyond explanation. The wreck occurred on the crest of a steep grade, when the Atlanta train could not have been running more than 30 miles an hour, if as fast. Had it been a mile or two further south, the number of dead might have been frightful, as the train was about two hours behind its schedule, there being a condition in the grade there that would mean a speed of more than 60 miles an hour. It was reported at . first that Engineer Kinney, of Spencer, N. C., who was in charge of the engine on the Atlanta ?rain was killed, but this proves to be incorrect. Kinney suffered only a few slight bruises and cuts, which were dressed and he did'not go to a hospital. We Guarantee Satisfaction. J. A. Brogdon, of the National Sign Oo., Dayton, O., writes under date of Oct. 12, 1906: "Nosena is the only preparation I have ever used that relieves my affection so speedily and pleasantly.

Gaffney, Nov. 23.?The inquest into the cause of the death of Mrs. Hortencia Morgan who was murdered last Tuesday, was held in the court house4 today at 11 o'clock. Sufficient evidence was adduced to hold Tom Harris, who was at the home of Mrs. Morgan at the time of the killing,.witnesses swearing that they met him on the road going towards Mrs, Morgan's house, saw him at the house before the murder was committed and on the road leading from Mrs. Morgan's to Gaffney immediately after the murder was committed. The jury found that Mrs. Morgan came to her death at the hands of Tom Harris, alias Tom Childers.?The State.

Conductor Better. Mr, .T, T. Wessineer, of Lexington, i a conductor on the Columbia electric street railway, who was injured very badly about a month ago in Lexington by being run over by a heavy buggy pulled by a runaway mule, is in the city after being under a doctor's treatment for the past three weeks. Mr, Wessinger's right knee was badly wrenched. He came over from Lexington yesterday, where he has been at his parents' home, and reported his condition to Superintendent Wallace. Mr. Wessinger's run is between Olympia and RidgewTood and his many friends will be glad to j see him back at his post. He will re- ! sume his duties in about two weeks. Columbia Record Nov. 30.

Fall River, Mass., Nov. 23.?Fall River's cotton mill employes won a battle for an increase in wages today and on Monday next 30,000 operatives will come under a scale giving them 10 per cent, more than the present rate. The granting of the advance by the manufacturers prevented a strike, the workmen having voted at meetings last night to stop work in all mills next Monday if the new schedule was not accepted. M. C. D. Borden, an independent cotton manufacturer, employing 5,000 operatives, took the lead in meeting the demands of the mill hands by announcing that the scale of wages in his mills would be raised 10 per cent. No demand had been made upon the proprietor of the Fall River iron works mills and his action practically forced the other mill managers to grant the increase. The new pay scale affects 70 corporations operating 92 mills, besides the iron works plant. The Manufacturer's association's agreement to pay the increase is for a period of six months but provision is made for extending it. Between November, 1903, and July, 1904, the Fall River operatives suffered reductions aggregating 22}4 per cent. Last spring a part of the cut was restored, and in view of the continued prosperous business condition, the operatives demanded a complete resumption of the 1903 scale. It is considered probable that other cotton mills in New England will follow the lead taken in this city and that thousands of outside mill hands ultimately will be benefitted by the determined stand taken by the Fall River unions.

He says: "I suffered with a terrible cough, and doctors gave me up to die of consumption. I was reduced to 90 pounds, when I began taking Dr. King's New Dicovery for Consumption, Couhgs, Colds. Now, after taking 12 bottles, I have more than doubled in and am completly cured." Only sure Cough and Cold cure. Guaranteed by Kaufmann Drug Co. Druggist. 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free.

Such a little break in the sod So tiny to be a grave, Oh! how can I render so soon to God; The beautiful gift he gave. Must I put you away my pet, My tender bud un bloomed; With the dew of morning upon you yet; And the blossom all unshown. My heart is near to break For the voice I shall not hear; For the plinging arms around my neck ' And the footsteps drawing near. We loved her, yes we loved her, But angles loved her more; And they have sweetly called her To yonder^s shining shore. The golden gates were opened, A gentle voice said come And with farewells unspoken, Darling Allain entered home. Dear sister and brother do not fear That your darling has left you, Sooner or later y>u shall meet her I In that golden, happy home. An angel came one solemn eve, Heaven's glory to bestow And took our darling from onr sight; What could we, Lord, at morning light bnt weep and let her go. Yet over her little head, Lying so still on mothers bed, Through that awful pain, But yet with all of this, we hope to meet her again. Her Aunt Mary. Oct. 29, 1906. Passed Examination Successfully. James Donahue, New Britain, Conn., writes; "I tried several kidney remedies, and was treated by our best phy^icans for diabetes, bnt did not improve until I took Foley's Kidney Cure. After the second bottle I showed improvement, and five bottles cured me completely. I have since passed a rigid examination for life insurance."
