This is hy far the most important sec
tion of the’bill of Speaker Pettits’ and
one that will elicit a lively discussion in
the state press and a still livelier debate
in the general assembly.
Mr. McCall introduced a bill to re
quire the employment of competent
trackmen to supervise and keen in re
pair the tracks of railroads in this state
and to create the office of state exami
ner of railway trackmen, who shall
serve for a term of two years and whose
duty it shall lie to examine all jiersons
who may apply for employment to any
railroad as division or section master,
or foreman in the charge of hands en
gaged in keeping tracks repaired. The
examiner shall keep his office at some
railway center in the state and shall lie
entitled to a fee of $3 for each applicant
examined. The Irill is accompanied by
a petition having seventy-two signa
tures.
Carrollton, Ga., .Tan. 24.—Captain
J. W. Hewitt, Carroll county's plucky
sheriff, returned from Texas Sunday
and tells of a thrilling experience he had
while going to the Lone Star state. He
said one night near Fair Oaks, Ark.,
the engine and nearly all the train
jumped the track and on investigation
it was learned that rpbbers had pulled
the spikes out of the track for seventy-
five yards, which had caused the wreck.
Hewitt says the passengers on the train
were badly excited, but by an organized
effort stood the robbers off. They had
to abandon going through them. The
train jieople put out skirmish lines and
then the train was two nights aud one
day in the deep forest subject to attack
at anv moment. Snow covered the
ground from twelve to eighteen inches
deep. _

Alton. Jan. 24.—The most frightful
calamity which has occurred in this
vicinity iu many years resulted from
the wrecking of the Southwestern lim
ited train of the Big Four railroad at
Wann Saturday. This train, leaving
St. Louis for the east at ?:.Vi a. ».. is
due at Wann at 8:48, aud was 13 min

the yardmen at the station had switched
a string of oil tanks to ashling and then

adjoining track, where the engine and
crew remained, awaiting the pavjige «*f

Rome. Jau. 23.—Dynamite bomb* ex-
j ptoded almost simultaneously Sunday
afternoon before the Hotel Dangleterre
and in the garden of the proprietor’s
house in the villa San Clandio. The
hotel was partly wrecked. Nobody in
jured, although the hotel had more than
one hundred lodgers at the hour of the
explosion. The proprietor ears that the
contents were almost a total loss. Not
a whole piece of furniture was left in
the building, and the walls of the house
near the hotel were cracked and all the
windows broken. The proprietor's
house in the villa Sau Claudio was less
damaged. Nobody was injured, as the
family hadleft home for the afternoon.
Immediately after the explosion the re
port went abroad that the anarchists
were again at work. The proprietor of
the Hotel Dangletere, however, says he
is confident that both explosion* were
caused by a man whom he discharged
recently from his employ.
A Lobbyist Wanted.

that the warrant for the arrest of Artou,
the Panama lobbyist who is supposed
to have bribed 104 deputies with 1.350.-

authority with which the statement is
made, has excited considerable surprise
in view of 31. Bourgeois' declaration in

was hard pressed by Deputy Millevoye,
that the warrant had been issued Jan.

At abont 10 o'clock the wrecking train
arrived from East St. Louis and the
work of clearing the track was com

The Ilnriilng Oil from the Tanks
had in the meantime set fire to all the
cars on the adjoining tracks, with the
result that eight box cars and seven flat

Phillips Brooks, the most eminent
divine in the United States, was born in
Boston, Dec. 13, 1635. He was gradu
ated at Harvard in 1855. He studied
theology at the Alexandria. Va.. semi- j
nary, and was ordained in 1859. Soon 1
after he became rector of the Church of J
the Advent. Philadelphia. In 1862 he (
took charge of the Church of the Holy ;
Trinity in that city, aud in 1861) went to '
Boston to become rector of Trinity
church.
Bishop Brooks was noted for his “low
church” views, and lias often preached
in churches of other denominations. He
declined a professorship at Harvard aud
mauv calls to other churches at large
salaries.
In 1886 he was elected assistant bishop
of Pennsylvania, but declined, preferr
ing to remain in Boston, where his in
fluence was very great, especially among
the young men. He was one of the
most famous pulpit orators America
has produced, ana was also a versatile
writer.
He was elected bishop in 1891, suc
ceeding the late Bishop Paddock. In
point of service in the episcopal office
he was one of the youngest members of
the house of bishops.
Trinity, the church lie served so long
in Boston, is one of tlie most uuiqne
edifices in the country, and cost over
$1,600,000.
The death of this great and good man
will be mourned throughout inis coun
