!'<OIk.trd+'iiii SORE EYES PERISH IN A WRECK Horse and Boar. A desperate fight between a liorse and a boar, which resulted in the death of both animals, is reported from the coun­ ty line eighteen miles north of Warsaw, Ind. The animals were on the farm of Arthur Munson and got together in a field, when the combat began. At the end of twenty minutes the horse was torn and bleeding, bad dwouuds being inflicted by tlie tusks of the angry hog, which was also in a dying dpndition, its head and legs being broken by the tre­ mendous kicks administered by the liorse. The animals survived the fight only a short time. r • A BRAVE DETECTIVE. TWO TRAINS COLLIDE, FAIL FOR A MILLION. Firm of J. R. Willard & Co. I. Forced Into Bankrnptcy. James R. Willard & Co., of 55, 280 and 1227 Broadway, New York, a firm adver­ tised as bankers, brokers and commission merchants of Philadelphia, Buffalo, Chi­ cago, Washington, Toronto, Montreal and New York, assigned to its chief bookkeep­ er, Jiimes L. Starbucfe, with preferences for $20,000 to William HJ. Osterhout of Ridgewny, Pa. Liabilities were guessed at from $000,000 to $1,000,000. The firm was organized two years ago. It had no rating at Bradstreet's. The partners were James R. Willard, various­ ly recorded as 41G4 Lake avenue, Chicago, and of Kennett, Hopkins & Co., 55 Broad­ way, New York, and 44 Broadway, New York,/and the brothers Elmer and Jay Dwiggins, nephews of Zimri Dwiggins, who founded country banks in Illinois, Michigan and other States, Svhich nearly all went to the wall seve_ral jenrs hgo. Willard's home is in Chicago. He was there identified with the firm of John Dickinson. & Co., who absorbed the Chi­ cago business of Willard & Co. He was a member of the Chicago Board of Trade and the Produce and Consolidated Stock and Petroleum' Exchanges of New York City. The failure of Willard & Co. was similar to that of E. B. Cuthbeit & Oo.„ A bull market did not suit its speculative business. It was all one way---the way of. the customer. The failure tif the Dwiggins" interest in the firm of J, P. Willard & Co. recalls the collapse, of the Columbia' National Bank of Chicago, in 1803. of which-Zimri Dwiggins, uncle of the. Eastern operators, was president. This was the first of the big banking institutions of the West that collapsed and the failure of a number of smaller institutions in the vicinity of Illinois was directly attributed to it. The Columbia National was capitalized for $1,000,000 and was nearly that amount in arrears when its doors closed. Exam­ ination of the books showed that only $9,000 was on hand. The,Columbia Na­ tional did an immense correspondence business with country banks, that were seriously affected by the failure. Zimri Dwiggins is now living at Storm Lake, Iowa. , Feminine Sharpnera. The author of "A Letter to Posterity" tells the following story of M^s Ashley, a beautiful Southern woman, who was afterward the wife of the Hon. J. J. Crittenden. She was a belle in society, and was dowered with unusual tact and charm. "Always give men brevet -ank," said she to a young girl who had just come out. "If they are colonels, call them general. If they are captains, call them colonel. They will forgive yom" But she could say sharp things when occasion demanded. A certain lady who had always been enviour of -her, once bought from her a French toilette, which Mrs, Ashley, who was going into mourning, could not wear. Put the pur­ chaser, after having worn the slippers, brought them back with the remark: "They are too big. I covld swuvi in them." t Mfs. Ashley took them, and answered quietly: "My dear, I am a larger woman than you are in every respect?---Youth's Companion. - ' ""V Shake Into Your Shoes Allen's Foot-Ease, a powder for the feet.

One of the worst wrecks in the history of the Santa Fe Railroad occurred three miles east of Emporia, Kan., Wednesday night. Nine or ten persons were killed and many more were badly hurt. The fast mail train going east and the Mexico and California express, west bound, col­ lided head on. The Mexico and California express was pulled fey two locomotives, gad wh§gi ^hey gtrttck en^ine^ dravp? ing the fast mail the boilers of all three engines exploded and tore a hole in the ground so deep that the smoking car of the west-bound train went in on the three engines and two mail cars and bal­ anced there, without turning over.. The passengers in the smoking car escaped through the windows. The front end of this car was enveloped in a volume of Btifiing smoke and" steam, belching up from the wreck below, a-nd the rear door, was /jammed tight in the wreck of the car behind. The wreck caught fire from the en­ gines. The cars in the. hole and the smok­ ing car burned to ashes in no time. In climbing out of the smoking car several men fell through the rifts in the wreck below and it is not known whether they escaped or were burned to death. The west-bound train carried seven or eight coaches, and its passengers included many excursionists who had been to hear W. J. Bryan speak at the county fair at Burling- ame. Mr. Bryan himself was , on the train, but was riding in the rear Pullman, 400 feet from the cars which were wreck­ ed. He says nothing but a heavy jolt was experienced by the passengets in his coach. Mr. Bryan was one of the noblest men in the crowd of rescuers. He helped to carry out the dead and wounded and gave the greatest attention to their care. One poor fellow, who was badly maimed, called to Mr. Bryan and said: "I went to hear you to-day; I am dying now and want to shake your hand and say God bless you. If you possibly can, Mr. Bryan, get me a drink of water." Mr. Bryant went into the fast mail car, one end of which was burning, and came out with a drink of water, which he gave to the suffering passenger. He brought out cushions for others of the injured, and was. everywhere present to minister to the wants of the injured. The engineer of the west-bound train had received orders to meet the fast mail at Emporia and was making up lost time. Thtfse two are the fastest trains on the Santa Fe system and the east-bound train must have been running at a speed of forty miles an hour. The west-bound ex­ press was going around h slight curve and met the fast mail, probably within 200 feet. Of the seven or eight cars mak­ ing up the train of the California express the mail, baggage and the express and smoking cars were destroyed. The coach following the smoker was badly splin­ tered. _ .- • . There were not more than a dozen pas­ sengers on the fast mail, all in one coach, and while none of them was seriously in­ jured their shaking up was terrible. Ev­ ery seat in the coach was torn from the floor and many floor planks came up with the seats. It is stated that the wreck was caused by a miscarriage of orders from the trainmaster. At Emporia the east-bound fast mail train received or­ ders to pass the California express at Lang, seven miles cast. Another order was sent to Lang for the California ex­ press to take the siding there. But this order was not delivered and the east- bound train passed on, the trainmen ex­ pecting to pass the fast mail at Emporia.

Intense Suffering; Caused by Torrtdity of an Autumnal Month. It lucked only one degree Thursday on the official thermometer of the weather bureau to give Chicago the hottest day for September in twenty-six years. Un­ der the deadly rays of the sun the mer­ cury climbed to 91 degrees, and would have gone farther up the scale to set a new mark for the month had it not been for the kindly intervention of a lake breeze. One death and four prostrations bear witness to the torridity. Workmen were stricken in the midst of their toil and had to be carried away for succor.). In the early days of the weather office heat in September like that of' Thursday was unknown. In 1881, with the quar­ ters of the department much nearer the sidewalk, a mark of 94 was reached. For twelve years this was the maximum until the mercury rose to 95 in 1893. This high mark was reached in the middle of the day and with no southeast breeze engaged in an attempt to discourage the tendency of the thermometer. Considering the condi­ tions, Thursday might be called the hot­ test day of the year in Chicago. Ther­ mometers nearer the sidewalk than the top of the Auditorium tower showed 98 and this was the temperature in which C h i c a go a n s s w el t ere d. ..

At least half of this quantity is conceded to be beyond relief. However, the hot weath­ er matured the early corn crop and 800,- 000,000 bushels of it is beyond danger from heat or frost.

The wheat States are those of the Northwest, and first afrnong them, in an ordinary year, with an average product of 05,000,000 bushels, is Minnesota. Then comes North Dakota, adjacent, with an average product of 00,000,000, and South Dakota with 30,000,000. The average of Kansas is about 25,000,000, and of Ne­ braska, 10,000,000. These are the group of wheat States, hut they are not the only ones, California producing in ordi­ nary years wheat to the amount of 40,- 000,000 bushels, and Ohio having an av­ erage crop of 35,000,000. Wisconsin, which adjoins Minnesota, produce?, rela­ tively, very little wheat, but Michigan has, when the farming conditions are good, a large yield. Oregon has been in­ creasing its wheat average considerably. Among the wheat States of the East Pennsylvania stands first, with an aver­ age crop of 20,000,000 bushels, Maryland following with 8,000,000, and New York with 7,000,000. There is comparatively little wheat raised in New England, and scarcely any in the Gulf States.
