Corumsvs, Onto, Nov. 18.—Today marks the seventy-seventh anniversary of the birth of Allan G, Thurman, the “Old Roman” of Obio democracy, and the demgcrate of the nation have made the occasion one to do homage to their distinguished mentor. At the armory this evening 1,000 guests, representing the supreme intelligence and leadersbip of the party of the country at large, will be seated at the banquet to be given by the Thurman Clab of this city to commemorate the occasion. COLUMBUS IX GAY ATTIRE, The city of Columbus is in gals attire today, and although the banquet is to constitute the only public ceremonies of the day the entire city presents a scene of unusual activity. From the summit of the capitol ie proudly ee tho stars and stripes, and across the princip: streets and in front of thousands of dwellings are suspended the flag of the nation and various banners and floral decorations, From early morning every incoming train brought to the city a contingent of prominent democrats from abroad, and ail day Judge mt of congratu- latory calls, Ex-President Cleveland and Col, Lemont came in on an early train and were es- corted by Mrs. Campboll to the executive man- sion, where they aro the guests of Gov. Camp- bell. An hour later Senator Calvin 8. Brice arrived at the mansion and the ex- President and himself made an early forenoon call on the distinguished Ohioan. Gov. Camp- bell is stilifar from well and it is doubtful whether he will be able to attend the banquet. THE “OLD BOMAN’s” HEALTH. Tho sunshine of the pleasant autumn day seems to have added vigor to the frame of the “Old Roman, who, as he shook the hand of Mr. Cleveland, so warmly extended in congratula- tion, assured his caller that he had not felt so well for many months, and that he hoped still to weather a few more years. “But,” said he, “I hava lived long enough to NEARLY 100 PERSONS HURT.

BOW A COACH WAS SAVED, The first-class day coach was saved from going over, alighting with the front cnd on an old tree broken off about even with the trestle. ‘The seats in the car were every one broken to splinters and the partitions in the car were broken into kindling wood. Then followed the smoker, the seats in which were nearly all broken. Next was the tourist sleeper, in which were some twenty-five or thirty passengers. Of this number only three were uninjured, Next was the Pullman car Alatia, with seventeen — and only three escaped without in- jury. i nextand last car was the Pullman ‘oseburg, in which were fifteen passengers. Only four of these escaped with slight bruises. In the smoker and day coach every seat was occupied. ‘The mail, express and baggage cars overturned, TEN DEATHS PROBAPLT.

Ros- well P. Flower of that committee peopenes to enliven the work by making some searching in- guiries with a view to making a decided change . the course so far laid down by the commis- sion. “The firat thing I propose to learn, if possi- ble,” Mr. Flow “ait in an interview, “is who is running this fair. The next thing is how the commission is spending the money appropri- ated by Congress. I understand that the com- missioners are all drawing pay and that the salary list is very large. Now, I have no hesi- tancy in saying that in my opinion the commis- sioners should not accept any for their services, The position is one of great honor and should not carry with it any pecuniary com pensation.” ——.___ THE CONSPIRACY TRIAL, Mr. Redmond for the Defense Protests Against the Government’s Action.

She was hurled upon the rocks with such tre- mendous force that their jagged edges tore her keel as readily asa match might be split by the sharpest knife, A moment later a mam- moth wave lifted the cruiser high above the reef only to dash her back upon its stony face the next instant with a great hole stove in her bottom, With the next sea the unfortunate vesvel slipped from the rocks into deep water. Through the awful gop inher bull the water rushed in by the hundreds of tons and then, in the midst of awful blackness of the night, the howling of the wind and the hoarse roar of waters beating against the fatal rect, the cruiser Serpent with nearly three huudred men plunged to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean, DROWNED BELOW DECKS.
