Emi'okia, Kan., Sept. 8. At least
twelve men were killed and ten or a
dozen injured in a collision on the
Santa F.i Hoad to-night between the
fast mail going east and the Mexico
& California train going west. Hon.
W. J. Hryan was a passenger on the
west-bound train, but was in the
rear car, probably 400 feet from
where the wreck occurred. Mr.
Hryan was one of the most active
men in the crowd of rescuers. He
helped go through the wreck, brav
ing the most terrible dangers and
assisting in carrying out most of the
dead and wounded men and paying
the greatest attention to their care.
His cool head was valuable in point
ing out dangers and directing how to
avoid them.
One man who was badly wounded
called for Hryan and said: "I went
to hear you speak to-day; am dying
now, and I want to shake your hand
now and say (?od bless you. If you
possiblv can, Mr. Hryan, get ma a
drink of water."
Mr. Hryan went into the fast mail

and brought out a cushion seat to
make a pillow lor anotner (tying
man. He was everywhere and
assisting everybody, and was per
fectly cool during all the terrible
scenes.
The train must have been running
at the rate of at least forty miles an
hour. The conductor and brake-
men were geuing men- nuui-ms
ready for Emporia, which was three
mil.s off. There was no warning
signal. The westbound tram was
truing around a siignc curve ami uiei
the fast mail. T"e three engines,
jammed together by the mighty im
pact, exploded instantly, tearing a
h.l, in ihH track so deep that the
smoking cars of the westbound train
went on top of the wrecK or inree
engines, and the two mail cars bal
anced there without turning over.
To add to the general confusion
ami panic, the lights in all the cars
went out. They soon filled with
smoke and the peculiar odor arising
from the pouring of water on hot
cindeis half choked the passengers
as they fought their way out in- the
darkness.
The wreck was caused by the mis
carriage orders from the trainmas

Thursday morning, September 2, the
dark Angel of death entered the home
of Mr. Jack .lames and bore away his
spirit, lie had been sick for only a few
days, when an Allwise Father called
him to a home where there will be no
more sickness nor sorrow. He leaves a
wife and six children and a host of
friends and relatives to mourn his un
timely death. Mr. James had bean a
member of the Christian church for a
number of years, and led a noble,
christian life. He will not only be
missed in his own home, but his church
lias lost a noble man. Ilo was a dear,
loving companion, a kind father and a
good neighbor. He always had a smile
for everyone he met and was ever ready
to lend a helping hand to those in need.
It is indeed hard to part from those
that are so dear to us, but God knows
best. Funeral services were conducted

An Inrldent of a Trip to Washington
Many Years Ago.
An old timer was in a reminiscent
mood after a trip to Washington, and
among other things recited the follow
ing incident, which could pnesibly occur
in no other country on the globe, and
which seems to show the lervor oi a
most fervid race and pives nu insight
into President Andrew Johnson's char
acter as a man such as could not be
found in a dozen histories of the man
who Hold every elective oflice in the
power of our sovereign people, from con
stable of Columbia, Teuu., to president
of the United States:
"It was just following the impeach
ment trial," said the narrator, "when
Mr. Johnson was making his grand tour
of the country. His party put up at tho
Spencer House, which was then a swell
hotel. When tho presidential party were
leaving the Spencer, the carriages were
driven from tho hotel entrance across to
the east side of Broadway, and it
chanced that tho one in which Mr. John
son and Secretary Stanton were seated
pulled up in front of genial hd Quin
ton's railroad hotel, then at Front and
Broadway, but now, like poor Ed, no
more.
At that time an old Irishman named
Kennedy, nicknamed 'the Democrat,
was employed as houseman atQuinton'B,
and chanced to bo standing at tho front
door with tho youth who was at once
clerk and bookkeeper of the railroad
" 'W'urra, who's the little fat fellow
they're all shakin hands wut?' asked
old Kennedy of the clerk.
"President Andy Johnson,' was the
reply.
'Andy Johnson, tho rale out an out
president himstl', f 'oiu Washington?'
" 'Iho Bume.'
'"Do yon think could I f-hake?'
" 'You can.'
"Taking off his battered old hat and
producing from it a yard square red
handkerchief, with which he mopped his
face and wiped his hands, he approach
ed the presidential carriage, which was
an open one. When there, he placed his
hat firmly between his knees, ppat on
his hands, extended tho right and ex
claimed: " 'Wisha, how are ye, Andy, my da
ceut ouid Dimocrat?'
"The beaming smiles on the face of
tho old Irishman were reflected on the
president's as lie grasped the honest
hand.
" 'Never better, my old friend. How
are yon?'
"'Oh, begorra, kilt wut pleasure at
seem you. Whisper' (the presidential
head bent down to the speaker). 'Come
an hev a drink wut mo yoursel', au
the ould fellow, Quiutou, have grate
whisky, au, by gobs, he'll trate ua da
cent.' "It is needless to say the party did
not drink, but an the carriage started
Mr. Johnson, turning to Mr. Stanton,
said:
'"Mr. Stanton, that is the most
heartfelt reception I ever met with.' "
