A'IUMU A FATAL CRASH, THE OAEELESSKEBS OF A OONDUOTOB Two Passenger Trains on the Pau-Fandle Collide, Kokomo, Resulting in Three Deaths, KOKOMO, o'clock this morning two Pdu-Huudle passenger trains, while running at almost full speed, came together near Morgan's brick works, three-quarters of a mile northwest of this city, with appalling results. One man was insttiutly killed two other trainmen mortally injured, having since died, and two others dangerously hurt. The norbh-bound train, pulled in a few mimitea late, and as it happened, the south-bouud train, was also late, which was not known to tha conductor, Thomas Lamb, of the former train. The two trains are scheduled to pass each other at this place. Conductor Lamb's train being lato, he took it for granted that Nolaud's train was in and hud gone.

Here is -where the fatal error occurred. Had Lamb examined the register, he could not have failed have observed that Kolaud'a train had not arrived. Without further ado the conductor gave the engineer the sig'na to go ahead. Ab this time the south bound passenger train had attained good headway out of Jewell, ard bot trains were running at full speed unti a few rods of each other. trains came togetiier with a frightfu crash, and almost immediately took lire.

Fireman G-eo. Gumming, ot th north train was instantly killed, and Engineer Thomas McCuIloch fatally in jured, dying this afternoon at 3:08 Tom W. Harber, baggage-master, wa severely cut about the head and hips Conductor Lamb was unhurt. On the other train Engineer Alber Wood, Fireman Al Webb, Baggage master IsaacKerliri and Express Agent Pat McLaughliu were all severely hurt Kerlin fatally, dying this afternoon Conductor Poland was not hurt. None of the passengers on either train were seriously though terriblj shaken up.

The Brice quarters, soon after Mi- Richie's appearance, were visited by a onstant throng. The new members began to arrive to-day, and were pilotec up and introduced by friends.

Any Druggist In the United States will recommend Elixir of Date's if you need a gentle and reliable laxative. If your liver is inactive you can't hope for good health until you "regulate the regulator" by taking some safe remedy. Elixir of Dates is just what you need. Give it a trial.

Commission to test the electrical execution machinery in the prison in this city reached here to-day, The following gentlemen are present: Dr.

C. F. Albany Dr. A. D.

Rockwell, of New York, and Prof. Landy, of the School of Mines, Columbia; College, with Harold P. Brown, the expert, who furnished the machine; Dri Fell, of Buffalo, and a gentleman who refused his name, and concerning whose identity no one would speak. The Commission would allow no reporter to be present at the test, claiming that one who was present at the Sing Sing test told the public much more than the Commission desired it to know. The commission desired to test the machine upon animals, and an old horse and a four-week-old calf were procured and taken in the prison.

Re porters were not allowed to witness the teats, but this evening Dr. MacDonald announced that the calf and the horse had been put to death with a sudden ness that was highly gratifying to the commission. A current of about one thousand volts was used. The horse was killed first. The wires were attached to his head and to one of his hind feet, just below the gambril joint.

The animal was instantly killed, the time of contact being less than half a minute The horse made no struggle and there was no evidence that he suffered. The calf was killed in less than ten seconds. As soon as the calf fell over the current was shut off. A SAD DEATH. Mrs.

M. the Treasurer of the company, being told that one of the company's large customers was present, appeared and asked him to remain. The invitation was accepted.

Jt is the custom of the house to treat its customers handsomely, and the fellow was taken to a down town club to lunch, during which he gave a complete history of his career in Cincinnati, including his early struggles in building up the Flach grocery house. When he finally took his departure, he asked for a good place to buy a pair of diamond ear-rings for his wife, and was recommended to Tiffany's. He went there, bought a $300 pair of ear-rings, ordered them to be sent to Cincinnati, paid for them with his check and took a receipt. The next day he again called at the Baking Powder Company office to say good-by, showed his receipt and said he had paid all the ready cash he had for the earrings, and must go up town to have a 8125 draft cashed.

"Can you fill it so that the filling won't come out?" "Yes, I think there will be no trouble about that part of it." "For" continued the lady, "I paid a dentist once for filling a tooth and the filling came out immediately; and when I went back to him to have the work repaired he wanted to charge me full price." "I don't think there will be any trouble as regards that," said the dentist, "Just be seated in the operating chair and we will commence work at once." The lady has just got settled in the chair and the dentist but fairly commenced at his work, when the office door opened and a stuck his head in saying that filling you put in my tooth yesterday came out; The lady became nervous and began to fidget, while the Doctor left his work and walked toward the saying as he went, "did I fill a tooth for you "Most assuredly," said the man.

CRUSHED BY HIS HOESE. Boys Scare a Milkman's Horse, and Animal Tramples Him to Death, the Gin. Post) Killed through a boy's thoughtlessness. A horse, frightened in play, tramples its driver under its feet, killing him almost instantly.

This is the tragedy which was enacted to-day. Joseph Harbeck was the driver of a milk wagon for McVey, the dairyman. At 11 he drove up to Lhe corner of Baymiller and streets and dis mounted from his wagon to carry some milk into a neighboring house. As he was returning towards the wagon several boys, in a spirit of mischief, annoyed the horse. Just as Harbeck seized the animal, by the bridle, one of the Doys threw a stick which struck the beast on the flank.

It jumped and threw Harbeck off his feet. He hung to the bridle of the frightened animal. It started to run when Harbeck lost his hold and the horse stepped squarely upon his breast. He made an effort to rise, but was knocked down again and both wheels passed over his body. When he was picked up he was gasping for breath and died before medical aid could be called.

Patrol JSTo. took the body to the morgue. Harbeck was 23 years old and unmarried. R. 0.
