Chattanooga, Tenn., February 24. —(Spe-
cial.)—An Incon Irg passenger train on tho
Gtcrgla division of the Southern railroad
bound from Atlanta struck a wagon at a
crossing four miles eist of the city at noon
today.
Nine members of the family of W. J.
Woodward, a farmer living ten miles from
Hie city, near King’s Point, Tenn., were
1 killed.
The only occupant of the wagon who
■ escaped was a three-year-old child. Virgil
Woodward, who was rescued uninjured
from beneath the extension front of tho
locomotive Immediately after the acci
dent.
A striking feature of the catastrophe Is
that no limbs were broken, but In nearly
■ every case th* skulls of tho victims were
' cru licit to fragments, each body seeming
I to describe an ellipse through tho air, and
falling upon its head, several at fifty to
lo> feet apart from th* scene.
The killed are:
MRS. LAURA WOODWARD, ng-ed
j forty-four.
GEORGE WOODWARD, a son, aged
twenty-four.

twenty, and her son, aged two months.

I tended to leave tonight for Florence. Ala ,
to join her husband.
The fatlwr and eldest son had como to

Tho train was running at a speed of

rounded tho curve Engineer Laird saw
tho wagon filled with people just in the

' Instead of pulling up he whipped bls

The engineer reversed his lever, but ths
train’s momentum was too great and It
struck tile waaon squarely broadside us It
. was midway tlio tracks.
I Instantly the air was filled with bodies
; and fragments "f th" shivered wagon.

brnnee of a clever stroke, and now shaking
his head as If h« feared calamity. One ;
day the hones? gen?lonian wont down to ■
the Manse and opened h!.i mind to the -
doctor.
"You know. r»nv’dson. I never thought (
this engagement, eh • • • wise and you ,
h.-.-l the same f.■cling: but you were quite ,
right about Kato. She has set lu-r heart |
on Carmichael, and will never ch.ani.-e.'"
"You wouldn’t want her, C.amci-l>." aid '
the doctor looked ahanily -at his friend. "It ;

"No, no; that would n.wer do, and I j
wasn’t thinking of anything of the kind, j
Kate has given her word, and must keep
her word, besides. It’s neither you nor 1
could make her break It,” and the general
Binnketl furiously.

she's • • » masterful and • * •”
“Quite so. Jack. Well, then, what .are

‘■Nothing whatever.” and the doctor
chuckled with great enjoyment; "but don’t

1 ed very rueful; "but don't you think that
it would be right to * • • in fact, put
him up to some things? It might make
the first year » • • easier for both.
"You would give the lessons. 1 suppose.

"No. no. Jack." and the doctor sober, d j
down: ‘‘Kate will do such things and |

Ro the general went home uncomforted
While the tv.o old g-ntlemen held th-Ir
council. Kate and Carmichael were down
by the Tro-.lity. she titling on the toot of a
ti ea ! he Ij i ig on the grass at her
side: and, like ail true lovers, they w-re
considering this marv-lous tiling, that two
people who ici-1 never se—n one another a
year ago, and were divld- I by many clr
cumsiani i s, had come t > be mon- to one
another than anything in th" world.
' Tell me. Kate”—she had surrendered a
hand to him. and as he fpok- 1 h- compar-d
It with Lla, h- ts email, rounded, firm; his
long, thin, flexible, both strong "how did
you ever come to * • • to love me.”
"For various reasons; for Instance, you
are : ot bud looking, -tr; In f.-et, when your
hair h: been pr.i|> -rly cut and your whis
kers trimmed. you have got a suit of
clothes from u decent taih-r, you will look
quite • • • well, .ilmost handsome. Yt s.
yon may kiss ray hand, but no more just
now.
i hen yon stru< k me as something quite
fr- ;li; all the young men I knew were cut i
uft- r the same pattern, and I was si- k of ■
Hum they i.l. said ’don’t you know.' |
You come from th- out u-l-i and -xcited my
curiosity. We will have lots of surprises
for each other: your views alone will gne
flavor to life.”
"Do yon remember, Kate, how hard you
were ut ■ me when 1 said women had no
coiinei tion In their talk?”
"Os course; you were so superior and
pelf-sat:sii—i tiiat I could have boxed your
ears sp .iking like a man of the world
while you were only * • • a nice boy.
Ami you were so offend- -I when I laughed
at you. Do you know, a man In a pet is
very amusing, so take notice that I mean to
tease you into ore at a. time."
"But I made you angry once yourself"
—Cartnlclia-'l was quite triumphant—"and
all Drutntoi hty knew, and so did I. and
had a v-ry bad tlm. my hopes were al!

THE CONSTITUTION. Atlanta, Ga.
every week about some kindness yc-u had
done, and Margaret Howe told me how
good n son you had been to your mother,
and about the burning of that sermon.
When she told mo that, I • • • lov-d you.”
The lark high in the sky poured out his
melody, and now the pigeons have begun
to coo in the wood.
"And you, sir," said our Kate, briskly
tapping hlrn on the cheek, "let me put you
through your catechism. How did a douce
Free Kirk minister ever allow h-mself to
fall in love with a glaikit Jacobite girl? An
swer inn that. John Knox. When was it?
Tell m« true.”
"Tho first minute my eyes saw you In
Muirtown Station. I began to love you then
Kate, and I loved you more every day. and
I shall love you till I die • • • and al
ways."
"That Is very satisfactory, and means
you will never marry again”—for Kate did
not care for heroics, and could be most pro
voking. “And how many did you love be
fc-re me? Such an inflammable heart must
oft- n have been on lire.”
“No woman ever touched my heart till
I met you. I had resolved to be a celi
bate.”
"Oh. did you? How proud I ought to be
to h ive conquered such an Invincible. No
girl, now. In your school days? Look me
in the face. Had you never a sneaking ten
derness? You had. I see. Now. tell me
all about her.”
"It was not I alone," and Carmichael
I blushed very Iwcomlngly. “A dozen of us
boys were In love, ns we thought, with
her, and tried to please her every way
we knew.
"If she saw us at a game, we did our
best; and if she notified to us going home
from school, it adii- d an Inch to our stat
ure. I was not allowed to dance, but I
; got her to sit out once with me. and I
i quite remember tho corner. Amn’t I hon-
"You are charming. And her name, and
what like was this belle?”
’’Henrietta” -.Kate shuddered), "but we
called her Harry. ("Better," said Kate.)
"S!:e had blue eyes and fair liaTr, and we
thought there never could have been so
wonderful a goddess. Twelve of us each
intended to win her when -he grew ■ ■>.
and were were quite jealous of one- an
other.
“And what happened? Who won the
. prize?"
! "When we were fighting away at col-
I ley - and tn offices, and had no home to
I off- r a wife, a rich man came In and car
ried off Harry 1 dined with her last spring.
So. you s'e. my h-art was not broken;
i but she is as pretty as ever," concluded
! Cnrmiehael. stoutly. “Only that was not
| love."
I "And afterwards?" persisted Kate.
' For awhile he was silent, and then ho
took Kate’s hand and turned away his
head.
"You wish to know everything, and
you have a right, for If a woman marries
a. m in ii«* ought to com- 1 to her wi’h - lean
hands, as 1 do. thank Go-:, for His grace
alone k-pt mo from falling"
Then Kate uml-rstoo-i that he was not
sp. iking of any ordinary love affair, but
of some darker, sadder experience, and her
hand pn-ss.-d his.
"Shu lit d in the same house, and I do
not think that she was bad. but she tempt
ed me, and 1 • - • I am no better than
other nn tl. but the thought of my motn. r
< uno to me. and I • * ’ walked th
■ tr. ets all night • • • that Is al I • n
a pure man; there is no other secret to
toil you. Kate."
His voi' > was broken with the agony
of th* confession, and the perspiration
w. < on Ills for- ii- ad.
•Thank you. John, for this confidence:
you are a. good man. and 1 mean to be
worthy of you.” As they went ba- k to
1 tii-- lodge the woo-:s were lull of song,
' and t’le ger.eral was so touched by 'lie soft
j n- .1 of Kat- ’S face that ho repented lurn
s- if of bis f- irs.
I They quarreled once, however, that sum
m- r. and it w is over Lord H;.y, whom ru
mor had asso. ii’.ted with Kate, and whom
Carmichael had met once or twice.
"Little better than a gamekeeper, do
you .say?" and Kate turned Indignant
ly as they were coming up the woodland i
pith. "It you mean that Ixard 11 iv is i >
g Kid sportsman for big game or small. - a
foot or horseback, you do him no more
than justice—you know what he has done
o:i th-- moor, and I have seen his tiger skins
at Kilspindie castle. ’’
"I have no doubt that he can kill." and ;
Carmichael allowed himself to bo sarcas
tic a mistake In speaking to a woman.
"If you now mean.” continued Kate, un
heeding. ’’that lord Hay is coarse or cruel
or vulgar or ignorant or anything else un
becoming a gentleman, then I beg to say I
that you do not k-now what you aro saying
and that you are doing an injustice to the !
son of my father’s friend."
"Ho nev r struck me as a man wT.o knew
v<-ry much, but perhaps I was uni'-t innate
in my subjects; I have not had tho ;: Ivan- i
tag-' of noble birth and the game laws.” •
' \ - ry likely Lor-1 Hay has not tend as ’
many books as you”—Kate was now In a ,
passion—"and does not know about so
many things, but one tiling he Know* wt Ich
you -lo not."
"What Is that, may I ask?"—with labor
ed calmness, for Carmichael was also g< t- -
ting hut at what he consider- d an unnec- |
essary eulogium on one who at le ist bad
been his rival.
•’Good manners." an-1 K ite’s accent was |
Incisive and bitt r. "which ought to pre
: vent any man attacking a.b>th?r behind his
back. Twice I remember Lord Hty men
tioning your name, lend on noth Occasions
with courtesy and r« sjw-ct. Why should
you bear ill will to him?”
"Why should 1 speak of anyone, even my i
Lord Viscount Hay, with freedom to my |
betrothed, and why should you defend him .
with such temper?"
"Because he is, and If he allow it, ever i
will be my friend. Do you understand?"
“Perfectly, and perhapa you now r
that ho is not more to you. If you so desire
It. God knows that I shall not be an obsta
cle."
"You are insolent and —cruel; you had
beta r go home and think of what v >u have
said this day." a-id Ka-to left aim standing
where tho path breaks out of the wood.
His heat lasted till he eame into tile quiet
of his study—where he had Kate's likeness
on tho wall, taken as he saw her first <m
Muirtown platform—and Elspeth Mactr.d
--y«-n tit'.-ting him face to face :.t the village
said never a word to him, but exchanged
confidence with Jamie Soutar.
