The Journal is requested to announce for the benefit of the charitably disposed people of Lawrence, that there is a family in destitute circumstances, living on New Jersey street, near Mike Lane's grocery store, lhey are strangers in the city and there is sickness in the family. The Journal is informed that the family are deserving of assistance, and are sadly in need of provisions and other necessaries of life. "Will you 'take in' Tompeii, to-mor row?" was the leading question on the streets yefterday, and judging from the number of answers in the affirmative, Lawrence will be a "deserted city" after 4 o'clock this afternoon. Among the number will be some of our most promi nent citizens. Three trains will leave the Santa Fe depot to-day as follows a.

Watkins iationa A DISTRESSING ACCIDENT. Two Children Hurled to Death by a Santa Fe Passenger Train. Sunday afternoon a heart-rending ac cident occurred on the Santa Fe railroad. about four miles east of the city. Mr.

Toyne, a farmer residing in that vicinity, had occasion to go across the track, which passes in close proximity to his residence, and his twin babies at tempted to follow him, probably walking along the side of the track, where the high weeds almost hid them from view. The 4:08 p. train on the Santa Fe, drawn by Engine No. 58, Conductor Weeks and Engineer Horton in charge of the engine, went flying along, striking the children on the fore head and hurling them into the air. They were picked up unconscious some thirtv nr fnrtv fppt from where the nod- dent occurred, bleeding and life almost extinct.

J. C. McCullough, who lives near the scene, said before the coroner's jury yesterday tnat ne naa heard the whistle for the crossing near Gilmore's, in the Eudora bottoms, and no more. Dr. Horner is of the opinion that the children were sitting on the rail and were struck by the pilot of the engine, The doctor also eays that soon after the accident two porters, supposed to have been from the same train, appeared on the spot rather mysteriously and inquired the names of the children and their parents.

One of the children was killed outright, ihe other, when lound was slill alive. The latter was reported alive late yesterday afternoon, with little hopes of recovery. The scene of the accident is reported as a dangerous place, as in the past several occurances of a like nature have been averted only by the presence of mind of those croosing the track at this point. Mr. Horton, the engineer in charge of engine 58 at the time of accident, passed through this city going east yesterday aiternoon ana was interviewed by a Journal reporter.

He was in no mood for taking and had very little to say regarding the affair, more than that he did not know of the accident until about noon yesterday. He will probably be given an opportunity to express himself a little more freely next Thursday at the coroner's inquest, to which time it ad- ourned yesterday. Mr. Horton' a story sounds a little strange when it 13 a pretty well known fact that the train was stopped a short distance from the scene of the disaster and two colored porters sent back to ascertain the extent of the acci dent. The facts in the case will probably be brought out at the coroner's jury, as Dr, Horner expressed himself as detei min ed to sift the matter to the bottom.

The parents of the little unfortunates are almost wild with grief, and the sym- pathy of their many friends goes out to them in this sad hour.
