Many fell by the wayside i'weie afterwards picked np mare dead than alive by other relief trains which followed, at intervals. Hundreds are still camped at the scene, sitting around small fires kindled from wreck age. Bleeding pilgrims are also camped vat places more distant from the disaster ana others are .cared for by the hospital . jeoeie Of Los'Ries, CouianiaandAytola. Jast what the mortality is it is impossi ble as- yet to say. It is exceedingly probable; that within the next few days aeore bodies will be found-in secluded epotn in the vicinity of the wreck. Many thinking they were strong . eBOttjrh to walk t he 22 miles into the cifymade the attempt. Overcome by weakness they sank down by the dozen and i.few have been found dead where they fell. The military hospital in the City of Mexico, where the wonnded were conveyed from the relief trains by order of President Diaz still echoes with the groans of the dying and the de lirious mutterings of many unfortunates. -T)eejflioocasionally comes as a relief.

Dexvek, March 4 One of the most systematic and ingenious check raising swindles that wa? ever successfully carried out in America has just -been un earthed in this city, the victims being the Umon Pacific company, nearly every bank in Denver and several dry goods and other houses. The methods used by the swindlers show them to be mas ter criminals, as daring as they are dis honest. Early last month the Union Pacific pay car left Omaha on its regu lar monthly trip to Salt Lake City with the wages of the company's employes, closely following tho car came a gang of check raisers, and; its members left the marks of their skill with acid and peri, in nearly every town where Union Pacific employes reside. The ex tent of their operations and the lots to the company on those who fooler the raised salary checks is not yet ally known, but enough has leaked out to show that the check raisers havejietted thousands of dollars by the s windle. The full force of the Union Pacine" detective corps is at work on the matter, as well as the police authorities in Denver and all the other towns along the lino. The gang visited the hotels and sa loons most frequented by railroad men, where a large portion of the checks had been cashed or traded in and bought them up for cash. In value the checks ranged from $10 to f 100, but each-'one was skillfully raised -to 110 and passed for that amount at banks and stores. In every instance the raised check was tendei-ed for some small purchase, so that the gang got nearly the entire amount cash. In Denver the checks ul timately reached different city banks, where they were pronounced all right and forwarded to Omaha. The Union Pacific auditor then passed all the $110 checks as being all right and commenced the balancing of'accountS. When the returned checks were com pared with the stub3 of the check book; the fact became apparent that the checks had been tampered with and work at once commenced by the railroad's de tective.!. It is supposed that the gang worked west to Salt Lake and then es caped to the coast. EXTEND A HELPING HAND. Nebraska Five States Contribute Seed to Drouth Sufferers. Omaha, March 4.

The day for the opening of the constitutional con vention is hailed with delight by the in habitants of this valley, whose aspira tions and constant endeavor for state hood have extended over a period of more than 40 year3. The sir previous conventions which met aud did their work adjourned only to see their hope shattered and statehood defeated.

Senator Thurston will raise the point that action for a separate receiver for the Oregon Short Line and the Utah Northern should properly be brought in the Unit ed States circuit court at Omaha, which, he claims, is a court of privacy and jur isdiction. He will ask to have the case transferred to Omaha. New Wcetera Liae. ' Los Anotles, March 4. "There is no eaestion in my mind,'' said H. E. Hunt inarton. to a reporter, "but the San Jbannik and Salt Lake railway will bo built-: The Southern Pacific is not pitting a stone in their way, but the valley road will not be built for any 6.000.000.

What a First Class Fare Means. There are 6ome people who imagine that wealth entitles them to privileges not accorded to the general public and exempts them from obligations and rules that others are disposed to obey. An inci dent which occurred on ono of our ocean steamers conveys a wholesome lesson to the purse proud contemners of the rights of the majority. A family pi unlimited wealth had secured the best accommo dation the steamer afforded. The gentleman and his wife kept them ehres secluded Koet of the time, bat the ctaldrea were allowed to run wild over tke steamer aatil they became sveh ki th the eaateia was he iaVe tea yoasstef, Hue rowed the is- of the aether , who remarked to tkeeaftaia that m she ptid first claw fare. she. theaght she was entitled to first class privileges. "Madam," said the captain, "first class fare means first class conduct." There was no further protest. London Tit-Bits. Lord Crewe's Collection. ' Lord Crewe once, on the occasion of some charitable entertainment, leaned up against a corridor wall, fast asleep, with his hat in his hand. Some wild young men started dropping coppers and half crowns into the hat until the chink ing awakened him, when, with gay hu mor, he pocketed all the silver and pelt ed his impertinent benefaotors with the pence. London Million, Sir Andrew Clark's Aphorisms. The late Sir Andrew Clark, Mr. Glad stone's physican, made use of the three following aphorisms during a conversa tion with Miss Frances Willard: "Labor is the life of life." "Ease is the way to disease." "The highest life of an organ lies in the fullest discharge of its func tions." There is a feast of food for re flection in these three sentences. One Child's Vocabulary. The statement that a child 51 years of age would not have more than 150 words in its vocabulary that it was able to use understandingly led a careful mother to note for a month the number of words used by her child. All tho parts of speech used were recorded, with the re sult that in this case the child appeared to have a vocabulary of 1,528 words, New York Post. SILVER DOLLARS SCARCE. A Bet Which Proved an Unexpected State of Affairs In Washington. A party of gentlemen were discussing the financial conditions a couple of days ago when one of them remarked upon the unusual scarcity of silver dollars in circulation in Washington. He stated that it was difficult to meet a person who had a silver dollar in his pocket, whereas a few months ago the cart wheels were more plentiful than the pa per securities. His assertion was ques tioned by one of his companions, where upon he remarked that he would be willing to make a wager of the cigars to prove it. "I will bet, " he remarked, "that you cannot within one hour meet a man whom you know who has a silver dol lar in his pocket. " The other, who had an extremely large acquaintance, eagerly accepted the gage and took up a position down at the cor ner of Fifteenth and F streets. Every friend and acquaintance who came along was requested to exchange a silver dol lar for four quarters. Scores of $1 bills were pulled ont of pedestrians' pockets, but the man with the change wanted only the dollar of his daddies. At the end of the hour he paid for the cigars, because he found not a man in his quest who had a hard dollar in his pocket I don't know the reason for the scarcity of such coin, but its existence is be yond doubt.

Some men of lone; experience of ele phant keeping say. that the "must" con dition is preceded by premonitory symp toms, and if taken in time may, by diet and treatment, be averted; but, without presuming to contradict those better in formed people, I can aver that I have known some of them to be taken by sur prise by the sudden- "niuatinir" of ele phants under their own immediate supervision. Some elephants become -demons of cruelty when "must," as, for example, a commissariat elephant that, during my time in Oudh, broke away from the Lucknow lines and went over a consider able tract of country, killing men, wom en and children wherever it found an op portunity of doing so. Blackwood's Magazine. Vowels In the Hawaiian Tobchc. The Hawaiian language is composed mainly of vowels and a few consonants put in to vary tho monotony. And the beauty of the system is that there is no waste. Every vowel is pronounced. For instance, when the American eye winks at the appearance of the simple word "naauao," the glib native rollB out the five syllables with neatness and dispatch. This means "enlighten." Double vow els are very frequent, tut never a diph thong. Three vowels are not uncom mon, and, as above, four and sometimes more are found unseparated by conso nants. In the mouth of the uneducated native the language is apt to be explo sive, but the higher classes speak it with a fluent grace that surpasses the French or tho Italian. In sound it somewhat resembles the general flow of the con tinental European languages, for the vowels all have the French quality, and the accents are not dissimilar. Wash ington Star. ART AMATEUR.
