I have tested its virtues personally and know that for Dyspepsia, llillious, ncss and Throbbing Headache, it isth best medicine the world ever saw. Have tried forty other remedies before Simmons Liver'ltegulator, and none of them gave more than temporary relief, but tlie Regulator not only relieved but cured. H. II. JONES, Macon, Oa.

A mixed train that was fol lowing the freight collided with the runaway cars.

Paul road ran into the rear of a freight train this morning three miles cast of here. The freight was switching at Inwood, la., and the rear part broke loose and tore down the grade, and finally collided with the passenger train. The following persons were killed: Andrew Parreth, Ilock Val ley, la., line repairer; W. A.

Twenty members of the Canton band got our of the smoker at Canton ten minutes before that car was smashed up, The freight conductor is blamed for the. ac cident Maine's Big Meteor. New Youk, Sept. 20. Pros. J. S. Har vey, of the agricultural and mechanical college, Orono, Me., ha3 made a special investigation conceruing the meteor which passed over Maine September 15. He writes as follows: "It was seen by a great many persons widely separated and must have illuminated a belt of country several hundred miles in width. It was distinctly seen at Bangor, Me., at the Maine state college, by a party of astron cmcrs, by many persons of Yanceboro, Calais and other towus in Maine and by citizens of St. Johns, Mc Adams Halifax and other points in the provinces. The meteor probably entered our atmosphere near the boundary of the states and prov inces and moved in a southeasterly course, crossed the Bay of Fundy and peninsula of Xova Scotia and landed inthe Atlantic ocean. The time was estimated by various observers as from two to three seconds and the size that of a full moon or small wash tub. Several believe they heard a hissing or rushing sound. Most of the observers say it was a round body of a deep red color like the sun. It had x smoky atmosphere and from this the central position extended. Purplish, star-like scintiltations were continually given off. Some competent observers regard the body as oblong and one be lieved the oblong mass was divided into two portions, separated by a space of greater brilliancy. The light given to the atmosphere was considered purplish in color. Many were badly frightened. Yesterday's Base Ball. Western League Hastings vs. Omaha, at Omaha; Hastings S. Omaha 7.

TESTINC THE BREAKS. What Can Be Done With the West inghouse Brake. Bciu.iwroN, la., Sept. 20. The fifth series of tests of the automatic air brakes of freight cars was concluded here to day. The tests demonstrated that on a fifty car train 1,1)00 feet long, equipped with the Westinghouso brake, and run ning at the speed of forty miles an hour, can be brought to a stand in a distance of G59 feet without a shock, and at twenty miles, in ICS feet without any shock, which is without precedent. Captain Black's Motion Overruled. Attawa. 111., Sept. 20. Captain Black counsel for the anarchists, asked the su preme court to-day for leave to withdraw the original record in the anarchist case for thirty days, wishing to submit it to his associate counsel in New York and then, if so advised, to submit the record to the United States supreme court upon application for a writ of error. After consultation the court overruled the motion. Chief Justice Sheldon said similar motions had always been denied, and cited a case where an ex-judge of the court had asked and had been denied leave to take the record to a hotel to look it over during the night. Captain Black appeared very much discouraged and after court adjourned remarked that "he would not have the responsibility of delaying that motion on his head for I'i'j world," That the court had only given them sixty days of life to work on au.l this decision would give the impres sion that the court did not desire to aid the seven men in getting justice. One of the judges, being told of this, said that no matter what impression went abroad, they proposed to do what was in accordance with the rules of the court. The record contains 2,000,000 words. Captain Black has asked the clerk of the court to make an estimate of what it would cost to make a copy at once and advise him to-morrrw. Texas Train Robbery. Fort Worth, Tex., Sept. 20 Two masked men with drawn revolvers mounted the cab of the Texas & Pacific east-bound express train to-night as it mlled out of Benbrook, a small station twelve miles west of here. The engineer was ordered to run the train a few miles from Benbrook. It was stopped just over a high trestle. Here two other masked men boarded the train. The fireman and engineer were then placed under guard. A dozen shots were fired into the express car and the door was finally opened by Pacific Express Messen ger Maloney. One robber entered and cleared out the safe and then went into the mail car. Messenger Griffith offered no resistance. Every registered letter in the car was secured by the robbers. The work was done in ten minutes and the engineer was ordered to pull out. The train was the through express from San Francisco. The booty taken is valued at 30,000. A train was robbed on the same trestel last June. Guards were in the passenger coaches, but they were over the trestle. No attempt was made to molest the passengers. There is no trace of the robbers.

The social ist convention is in executive session, and reporters are barred out. A Donkey Ride to Abou Seer. The donkey ride to Abou Seer is the hardest on the tcur. It is through deep Band, and often the tiny donkeys sink until your feet so drag as to impede your progress. You cannot walk. In mercy to your donkey you wish you could. Your 6tudy of the poor animal convinces you that he has great patience. The driver is a model of forbearance; there is always, however, a perfect understanding between donkey and driver. Although the poor beast is continually goaded and his tail tvisied to make him go, or else is pushed bodily to right and left, and even seized by the head and lifted to suit the inclination of the master he bears it blandly and seems to feel that he must deserve it or he never would be so tort ured. He is a fatalist, and believes that, after sill, he is always a "good don key" to his driver. For does he not hear his driver tell the howadji so, a hundred times each day? There are nearly a thousand synonyms in Arabic for donkey, all tender and en dearing. And then do I not know that when the noon muezzin sounds the don key and driver retire to some quiet 6hade and have their loving make ups? I have watched tho human member of the firm as he came with tho meal of chopped straw for Ins pet. I never saw such mutual coddling and love signaling and tender understanding m all my experi ence. It is inciting. The boy s face beams with smiles while he calls his donkey pet names in the softest tones; and the homely animal so shakes Ins head, snaps hi3 eyes, and oscillates his neck as to brighten his humble physiognomy into a new expression. Edward L. Wilson in Scnbner s. Persian Woien Oat of Doors. The veil, which is habitually worn out of doors even by the very poor in all great towns in Persia, though its use is unknown among the tribes who fornc at least a third of the whole population, Is clung to by the women as a privilege; it is in fact a domino. The Persian woman out of doors is unrecognizable even by her husband. She see3 without being seen, and in the veil it is impossible to detect the age of the wearer. As the Persian lady is nearly always married at 14, she begins to fade at 27 at latest, at 30 she appears 50, and there are only two dentists in the whole of Persia. Polygamy is tho luxury of the rich; with the upper and middle classes bigamy is the rule. A man's first alliance is a mariage de convenance, the second either a marriage for love or for the grati fication of vanity. When your Persian brings home a second wife there is usually a scene which lasts for a week or two; there is a struggle for supremacy, but it is soon over. Both wive3 do their best to please the master of the house, but they do not attempt to poison each other, unless in very exceptional circumstances. But Persian ladies still believe in the efficacy of love philters, and many an abomination is secretly administered to unfortunate husbands. Happily, the love philter, though usually composed or horrible ingredients, is quite harmless. St. James Gazette. t. aero tr on S JrXaxe. To a young singer in London patron age is as necessary as learning the scales, There are but two ways of getting within the charmed circle.
