Sidney, Ohio, June 12.—A dis
astrous wreck occurred on the Big
FouNlailroad about 10 miles West
)f here this morning. Three men
were killed and another seriously
injured. About 2 o’clock a West
bound freight train was going at a
high rate of speed down the steep
grade between Dawson and Houston
when it broke in two parts and ran
tcge her again at the foot of the
grade before the trainmen discov
ered the break.
The two parts came together
with such force that nine cars were
totally destroyed, several others
badly damaged, and the track torn
up for a distance of over 200 feet.
The wrecking crews were soon on
the scene, but did not get the track
cleared until about noon, delaying
all traffic until then .
Six tramps were stealing a ride
in the cattle car on the wrecked
train. Two escaped without any in
jury, aud skipped out before any
officers arrived on the scene. Three
received such serious injuries that
they died a short time after the
wreck. Another had his back bro
ken, and, although still lives, is
not expected to live.
The dead are: Evan Evans, of
Pitt«burg, Penn; Steven Gebbling
er, who said he had no home. The
name and residence of the third
dead man could not be found out,
as he died before they could be
learned, and there was nothing on
his person to identify him The
man with his back broken was ta
ken to the County Infirmary'. His
name is George Brown, and his
home is at Leetonia, Columbianna
county. The men got on the train
at Cleveland, and said they were
going to Muncie, Ind.

THEY WERE MARRIED
Joe Nunnally Gavi the Bride Away
Bill Ennis “Best man.”
Dr. Cramp Harris, the veteran
matrimonial splicer of the moun
tain counties, was at his happiest
yesterday afternoon, around in the
jail office. I
He had been called in to unite
in the holy bonds a Miss Mahaley
White, one of the “boarders” a
the county jail, and a Mr. Robert
William Thomas, a nice looking
youth of perhaps 20 years.
The ceremony occurred in the
jail office, Solicitor General Joe
Nunnally to give the bride away
and with Colonel Bill Ennis as
best man.
The witnesses to the culmina
tion of the romance which was
really the opening of war and se
rious trouble, were: Bailiff Me
Lend, Tax Assessor Foster, Ordi
nary Davis. Bachelor Oscar Gore,
Deputy J. K. Williamson. Jailor
Raymond McConnell, Col. Phill G.
Byrd and Private Raleigh Reese.
Dr. Harris was at his best, and

wearing his hat on a nail, his coat
on a window sill and his new sus
penders on his person, while he

the doctor grew eloquent.
At, last he finished and while

Memphis, Tenn., June 12.—The
situation here is unparalleled in
the history of conventions. To
morrow at 2 o’clock the conven
tion will be formally opened and
when the gravel falls the greatest
number of delegates that ever met
together fi>r a single purpose will
come to order.
When one considers that this
gathering was called by a baker's
dozen of citizens here who had
formed themselves into a local
bimetallic league, and all of them
obscure citizens with no more than
even a limited local acquaintance,
the intensity of the silver sentimgi t
in the South can be faintly ap
preciated.
Every incoming train is loaded
i with dilegates and nearly all the
! prominent statesmen of the South
; are here. Conservative estimates
p'aca the number of delegates a’
2,500, and the v isitors who atte -
I ed from interest in the movement t
j hear the speeches will probably
j exceed 10,000.
I The committee of the league
here have aheady sei n that the »ii
ditorium with a capacity of 7.000
will be wholy insufficient to accom
modate the erger throngs, and
have at cured the Grand opera
house with a capacity of 3,5( 0 for
the grand ove-fl >w meeting. It is
said tonight that probably t e new
lyceum will also be used for that
purpose

> Griffin, Ga., June 11.—Although
i this was the opening day of the en
campment for 1895 the evidences
-of the fact have been rather scarce,
I but that can easily be accounted
t for in two ways. Both regiments
t came in much later than w-as ex-
I pocted, the Third not arriving un
til afternoon.
i Again, as is usual on the first
i day, the streets have to be cleared,
I the tents put up and arrainged and
I everything put in order generally,
i For these reasons principally the
i soldier boys have not been very
much in evidence upon th“ streets
today.
The Sixth regiment, which came
in fir t, immediately began work
I on the camp, and by the time the
Third arrived had the streets clean
and tents all up in order. The post
i flag was run up at noon and for the
fourth time in its history Camp
. Northen was formally opened with
Colonel W. E. Jones, of Waynes
boro, in command.
The roster of the Sixth shows
! seven companies having about 250
men in camp. It comprises the
i Clinch Rifles, Oglethorpe Light In
fantry, German Guards, Irving
Guards, Washington Rifles and
Burke Light Infantry.
As soon as possible after getting
into camp the guard details were
made out, guard-mount was had
and senturies posted for the first
watch. The officers of the day are
as follows : Captain Frye, company
C; First Lieutenant Sancra, Com
pany F, and Second Lieutenent
DeVaugh, Company D.
Soon after 12 o’clock the train
bearing the belated Third regiment
rolled into the grounds and dis
charged its load of hot dusty sol
diers. and they Were immediately
marched to their quarters, where
after a hasty dinner and a shor'
visit to the bath house they began
the first work< f every encampment.
It took but a few hours of indue
trious work to put this part of the
camp into equally as good shape
as the other.
Col. R Usher Thomason, of"
Madison, is in command of th
Third this year and is assisted by
an able corps of officers in Majo"
E. H. Almand, of Conyers; Ad
jutant Carl Vandrolrith, of Athens,
and Sergent M jo- Josh Hill, of
Madison. Captain James B. Nevins,
of Rome, is inspector of Rifle pra< -
tice for the regiment.
The Third brings about 280 ,
men into camp and its roster of
companies is as follows: Madis< n .
Home Guards, Hill City Cadets.
Elberton Light Infantry, Greene 1
Rifiles, Rome Flight Guards, Con
yers Volunteers and Clarke Rifles
Camp life is almost entirely 1
new to the men in camp this year. 1
ns in the two vears tl at have pass
ed since they were here last nearly 1
all of the old members have drop- ’
ped out and others have taken ?
their places. It is a fact that a i
company brings but few of its old '
members into camp at each suc
cessive time and in this way the
officers in charge find < very year 1
that they have their work to do ‘
over again.
The tours of duty this year wiil J
b“ shorter than usual and it will s
require much closer work and t
di inter discipline to accomplish C
the usual results. The discipline
