£4 A FEARFUL HALW.FOUR. Lives of Cincinnati Millionaires in Imminent Poril Cincinnati Commerelal, « In the early days of the Cincinnati Southern, before it had attained its present system, and immediate] the road had been opened for traffic to Somerset, occurred an event the recollection of which even to this day se=ves to bring out goose flesh on those who at that time were cognizant of the impending disaster, Within a few days after passenger travel began, the officers of the Southern sent invitations for a trip over the road to all of Cincinnati's wealthiest men and heaviest tax-pay- ers, and on the morning of the excur sion, dozens of carriages left the Bur. net house, the place of meeting, and conveyed them across the river to Ludlow, where the “special,” headed by No. 1, the crack engine, with Mat Coombs at the lever, was in waiting. Miles N. Beatty, now superintendent of the Southern Division, was con ductor. When all the excursionists were on board, the engi rand con ductor went into Train-Dispatcher Cooledge's office, where they read and signed the following order, and placed ies in their pockets: ‘Meet and pass No. 2, north-bound passenger-train, at Williamstown,” To Williamstown for delivery to the north-bound passenger train on val, was sent the following order *'——, Conductor: Meet and pass south-bound special at Williamstown. 8o that the situation stood thus either train reaching the place indi- cated first was to go on the siding and wait there until the one coming from the opposite direction had arrived and gone ahead on the clear track. y senger-load some were seated chatting, others were standing on the platforms, and still others on the summer car when glanc- ing up and down his train, the con- duc or, finding everything in good or- der and readiness, waved his hand to the watching engineer, and the special pulled out, slowly at first, but as it moved on the speed increased until it went out of sight around the curve a-flying, and a little later a rumbling sound told of its crossing the trestle, and that 1t was well and fairly started on the way south. Tt was understood that extra fast time was to be made, and to offer no obstacle the track had been cleared of everything save the passenger-train referred to. One-half hour after the start from Ludlow, No. 2, fifteen minutes behind time, reached Williamstown, at which place the standing rule was impera- tive that conductors should at all times stop and inquire for orders, Stopping only long enough to unload a passenger in the mud, the conductor, thinking only of making up lost time, signaled the engineer, and the train went on, The hor ied operator from his window s ). 2 flash northward, to what scemed inevetable destruction, as the telegraph line between his room and Ludlow was unbroken by a single instrument, and at that moment two traing at high rates of speed were rap- idly lessening the distance between each otlier on a single track. He t eraphed at once to Ludlow that No, had passed without stopping for orders, 4 All color left the of Train- Dispatcher Cooledge as he received the message, and as he_communicated the direintelligence to Jack Redmond, master ot transportation, that individ- ual’s countenance assumed a similar hue. With him to think was to act. Stepping to the station-door he quick- ly beckoned several men to him and composedly gave instructions to each. One-half dozen of them went on the double-quick in different directions for physicians. The station-keeper went into the warehouso and gathered together sponges, bus- kets, materials for splints and soft muslin for bandages. Mean- while other employes had run up to the engine house, and starting a fire under an idle locomotive had hitched on to a caboose and backed down in front of the station where the car was transformed at once into a hospital coach. To all save Redmond dnd Cooledge the preparations were mys- terious. The relief-train was soon in readiness, but did not start. Red- mond, seated at his desk and estimat- ing the rate of speed at which the trains were moving, calculated about where the collision would take place. Some of the passengers would escape unhurt; and one of them would hasten, at once on horseback to Williamstown, the nearest point, for medical aid. Here the operator would learn the ex- act locality of the accident and send a dispatch to Ludlow. Pessessed of this information Redmond could send his waiting engine and car, with its corps of physicians and nuxses, to the spot at the rate of nearly a mile a minute. The other and slower plan would be to have let the ‘*‘re lief” start out and cautiously find its way around the many curves. He chose the wiser course. The scenc in the train-dispatcher's office was painful. Cooledge, leaning over the stlent instrument, watched it with feverish eycs as if to read its secrets before transwission. On another cl was Redmond, with big globes of perspiration coming from the ores of his face and rolling down un {wcilull. Neither man spoke. Five, ten, twenty, thirty minutes that seemed like ages passed, when came a sharp click. It was Williamstown calling Ludlow. Cooledge’s hair rose up on end he gave the respone, Red- mond_stood up and placed a hand on the door-knob, The next moment Cooledge fairly yelled, *‘No collision, No. 2 has just backed into Williams- town,” The two men shook hands with the same vigor as if they wer twin brother and hadn’t met for a thousand years. It was then ascertained that, by the most fortunate circumstances, the trains hadsimultaneously entered from opposite ends, upon the longest piece | of straight track between the two tel- egraph stations, and instantaneous a plications of brakes had brought them to a stop within twenty feet of each other. No. 2, recognizing the *‘spe- cials” right of way, backed to Wil-| llamstown, where it went on the sid- ing, and Cincinnati's millionaires and capitalists proceeded unhurt on their journey. Eli Perkins on Texas Girls. Chicago Tribune. In northwestern Texas, next to the Arkansas line, some of the ladies chew snuff. They are not Texas girls, but 5 Arkansas girls over there on a visit The real snuff-chewing girls all live in | Arkansas and Tennessce. The swell | Arkansas girl takes out her tin box of snuff, dips a stick in it, and chews the |end of the stick like a cigar. Ocea sionally she expectorates out of the window or into the aisle of the Pull man gar, » man feels like kissing an Arkansas snuff-chewing girl on the mouth. 1f compelled to kiss her at all, he prefers to kiss her on her nose or ear. Betwe:n an Arkansas girl's powder on her face and the snuff on her teeth and lips, the ear is about the only clean place left to kiss. 1 am sorry to say that almost every colored girl in Texas chews snuff. The chambermaids all go about the halls with a stick in their mouths, the end covered with snuff. When the colored chambermaid at Waco came with towels she had a stick in her mouth, and I thought 1 would ask her hy she used it. “Wall, it ‘pears like dey all use it,” she said, “‘an’ 1 uses it, too, “But it is such a nasty habit,” 1 said, “Why, you'll nover get mar ried with your “mouth full of nasty | stutt.” | “Most all de girls get married some. way, an’ dey all chew; an’ de white adies dey chows too “What! not the white ladies in this hotel?” “Sartainly, sah. Dey's five ladies —white ladies—in dis hotel dat chews. Dey do it in dere rooms, dough. Tt "pears zif what de white ladies do we colored girls oughter do too."” I will say here that the refined young ladies in Texas do not use snuff. The snuff-chewers are usually the “‘poor white trash,” who original- ly came from Arkansas or Tennessec. You will see many beautiful and ac- complished young ladies in Waco who chewing crowd. A MOTHER FINDS HER BOV. The Waif of a St Louis Orphan Asylum Furnishes Material tor a Romanoe. Troy (Mo.) Free Press One year ago last January Mrs, David Allen, (Aunt Vine), requested ono of her lady friends, Miss Mary Howland, a resident of St. Louis, to obtain for her, ® possible, a boy from one of the many _orphan_ asylums of the city. Miss Howland performed her mission, and in a few days a boy put in an appearance at Foley, seem- ingly about b years of age; a little budget of clothing was all that accom- panied the little stranger. His name, neatly written upon a card, was ‘Roy No other information was received in connection with the child; an effort was made by Mrs. Allen— she says che has an inquiring mind— to obtain some knowledge of his an- tecedents, age, etc., and a letter was addressed to Mrs. T'ucker, matron of the institution from whence the child had come, but nothing came of it ex- cept hints that the child was illegiti- mate; that his mother was dead, and his kindred wished to lose sight of him. Further etforts were made, but the mystery surrounding the child's antecedents was only increased there- Dby, nntil a few days ago, when all was revealed in a way and manner as startling as it was unexplained. The following letter was received by Mrs. Allen in the rogular course of Laxe, Ills., May 17, 1881, —Mr. David Allen, a wrote to M. E, cker, of St. Louis, last week, ask- ing for information of Roy Davis, and she sent me your address, and I send you these few lines asking the privilege to come and see Roy. Tdon’t want to take him away, but want to see him, and will you please write and inform me what road I shall take when I get to St. Louis, and hope that you will not have any objection to my coming, and, awaiting your answer, I respect- fully close. Address * Mgs. ALuie BARBER, Queen’s Lake Clinton county, 111, Of course, the next mail carried a | letter to the address given, giving the requested privilege and desired infor- mation; and on last Monday a week a lady stepped from the cars at Foley and inquired for Mrs. Allen’s; she was met at that point by Dr, T. M. Allen, and they started for the squire’s. Before arriving there, how- ever, she told the doctor that her name was not Barber, but Davis, and that she was Roy’s mother Arriving at the house, the child was brought before her, but failed fora time to recognize her, but after removing her hat the little fellow said: *‘I believe it is my ma!" and then such a scene a8 thore was! The mother's heart as- serted itself and vented its emotions in tears and sobs, After she had be- come quiet she, of course, had to tell her story, dnd a strange one it was, But T must cut it down and make it as brief as possible. She smd: *‘1 was rmsed in Rock Islund, 111 schooled there, and when 1 bout 17 years of age my stepfathor removed to” a farm w short distance from Evansville, 1L ; reinain- ing on the farm about two years, another move was made, this time to the town of Evansville, and at this I narried on the 20th of 1872, to Mr. Charles Davis, ed life for a short time was )y, but after a time I found that he whom I ealled husband was a ty- rant and hard to please. We kept a boarding house in Evansville, and on Roy, our tirst hoy was born, and from this time I was unable to perform any ar duous labor, being quite an invalid In the spring of 1878 another child was born and from this time my health was very poor, indeed, being contined to my room and bed all the time. My half sister, Allie Barber, came to hive with us and assist in keeping house, and my husband’s sis- ter and brother from Ohio came upon avisit. My physicians recommended extreme quiet, and, in order to obtain - | this, T was removed to my mother’s, | who was then living upon a farm a | short distance from there. 1 was | there but a short time when my hus- | band and half-sister eloped, taking with them my boy Roy. 1 was al- most heartbroken at the loss of my child. This was in September, 1878, | He was a delicate chihl, and 1 was not surprised when I shortly received | word that he was dead, and for two years I have looked upon my child as dead. But last March I received a letter from my sister Allie, asking me would not associate with the snuff- |} Colorado at somo of the springs thero I wrote her that she had caused me trouble enough and 1 would have nothing more to do with her. She wrote me again, telling me that if 1 would come she would give me infor mation in regard to Roy - that he was not dead but living. Of course 1 went, and she told me that she had loft him at an orphan asylum in St, Louis - giving me the address—and then had told that he was dead; that she had told the matron that he was illegitimate, and his ma was dead and his kindred were anxious to lose sight of him. T, of course, lost no time in writing to Mrs. M. E. Tucker, and signed my sister’s name to the letter to insure an answer, and 1 soon re ceived an_answer telling me that my boy was alive and well, and had been furnished a home at Mrs. David Al len’s, Burr Oak Valley, Lincoln coun Missouri; and thén Lsent my let \d received your answer, e don’t know how T felt when 1 vl that my boy was well, and that T might have the privilege of secing him once more. Jim Keene's Washerwoman San Francisco Post, *“The fact is,” said Jim Keene, the great New York rival to Jay Gould, as he relaxed his usual taciturnity under the genial influence of one of Sam Wards's dinners the other day; “the fact is, that no matter how clever and thorough a man’s system of stock operating may be, there is ays oc- orever knocking the best laid into a cocked hat.” “*As how!” “Well, for instance, about a y ago T was doing a good deal in L Shore, and counted on making a big clean up. 1 discovered, howover, that there was some hidden influence in the market that was always against me. It didn't exactly defeat my plans, but it lessened the profits, 1 soon saw that there was somo opera- tor who was kept informed as to my movements in time to make me pay for his knowledge.” “Broker gave you away?” said sev- eral, Not at all. I never gave an order in advance, and besides, I used as now half a dozen brokers, and also gave ‘cross’ and ‘dummy’ orders plenty. One day, while I was standing at _the window of my up-town place, cogitat- ing over the state of affairs, an elegant private coupe drove past, and stopped just around the corner from my door. It contained a richly-dressed lady and a ragged-looking girl. The latter got out, rang my bascment bell, aud was admitted. T sent for my manservant, and inquired who the girl might be. ‘¢ ‘She comes for the wash, sir,’ he said. ‘“‘Does she generally come in a coune? T inquired ““Why, no, sir,’ said my man, very much surpr ‘her mother, the washerwoman, is very poor.” “‘Just then my own carriage drove around for me, and as it passed the other I could see the lady eagerly sorting the soiled clothes in the coupe on her lap. This excited my curiosity, soI had my driver follow along be- hind. Pretty soon the coupestopped, and the dirty little girl got out wi.h the bundle and went into a brown- stone front on Twenty-ninth street. The coupe then kept straight on down to Wall street and stopped in front of a_brokers’ office, where the lady alighted with my entire lot of soiled shirt cuffs in her hand.” ‘¢ Shirt cuffs ” cried the entire com- pany. ‘“Exactly; shirt cuffs. Tsaw through it all in a moment. You see I am— or rather was—a great hand while at dinner, or at the theatre in the even- ing, to think over my plans for the next day, and to make memoranda on my cuffs to consult before starting down town in the morning. My washerwoman had found this out, and had been quietly *coppering’ my game by means of my cuffs for over a year.” “Well, by Jove!” said Sam Ward, pausing for a single instant in the sacred mystery of salad dressing. “It’'s the cold fact,” continued Keene, In less than eight months she had cleaned up over $600,000 and was washing my clothes —at least the cufls —in an $10,000 house. She had dia- monds and horses until you couldn’t rest.” “You didn't make any more cuff mems, after that?” laughed several. “Well, not many - just a few,” said the great operator, holding his Bur- | t | to come and see her. She was in gundy up to the light. ‘I believel kept it up about a month longer, at the end of which time I had raked in the washer-woman’s bank account, and even had a mortgage on the brown- stone house. It was a queer coinci dence, wasn't it? But perhaps the in- formation she found on the cuffs after that wasp't as exact as it had been, somehow, nor as reliable,” Aund the “King of the Street” emptied his glass with an indescrib- able wink that made Beach, who was short on Harlem, shiver like a cat who had just swallowed a live mouse, - - A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY. r the speedy curo of Consump- tion and all diseases that lead to it, such as stubborn coughs, neglecte Colds, Bronchitis, Hay Fover, Asth- wma, pain in the side and chest, dry hacking cough, tickling in the throat Hoarseness, Sore Throat, and all chronic or lingering discases of the throat and lungs, Dr. King New Dis- sovery has no equal and has cstablished or itself a world-wide reputation, Many leading physicians recommend and use itintheir practice.
