Air Brakes Refused to Work,
j The circus travels tn two trains of
about thirty-five cars- each. After
the exhibition at Charlotte, the two
trains left for I.epere, the second sec-
tion leaving half an hour after the
first. It was 3:45 o'clock when the
first section pulled into the west end
of Ihe Grand Trunk yards here. A
red light was hung on the rear car
to stop the second section. Engineer
Probst, who was ruhning the engine
of the rear train, says be saw this
light and applied the air brakes. To
his horror they refused to work. He
reversed his engine, but the momen-
tum of the train behind him was too
great and with a crash that aroused
all Ihe town, the two trains met.
Three cars of the stationary section
were telescoped and the engine and
five cars of the moving train were
demolished. The rear car of the
first section was a caboose in which
trainmen were sleeping and the next
two were filled with sleeping circus
employes. The greatest loss of life
was in the caboose.
One of Ihe wrecked cars of the
second section was occupied by five
elephants and several camels. One
of the elephants and two camels were
killed outright. With the exception
of this car, none of the menagerie
was wrecked, the other demolished
cars contained canvass and wagons.
As soon as the recovered from the
first shock, trainers rushed among
the cages quieting the excited beasts.
The elephants behaved with surpris-
ing calmness anil were led out of
Ihe wreck without trouble.
The escaping steam and screams
and cries of those pinned In the
wreckage was a horrifying spectacle
in the gray of early morning, when
the trainmen in the yards and the
aroused towns-people first reached
Ihe scene. The fire whistles were Im-
mediately sounded and the whole
town was aroused. The rescuers
could see Ihe unfortunates through
the tangled wreckage. All Ihe physi-
cians and nurses in town were sent
for anil the Hotel Richelieu was con-
verted Into a temporary hospital.
Scores of volunteers with stretchers
were soon In readiness to carry the
injured there as fast as ihe rescuers
could extricate them. The dead

Four of Ihe injured died al the hos-

ing train crews had finished pulling

seventeen dead men were lying on the
grass awaiting removal to the mor-
gue. The majority of them were
killed while asleep.
The circus performers were on the
rear of the moving train and escaped.

Chief Holmes to call upon Moony for

SOCIETY AS SHE IS WRIT.
Down in Georgia—One Young Lady
Who is Surely a "Peach."
Alalia, tia.. Mirror.
Miss Isabella Huffman, a most pre-
possessing. vivacious and highly ac-
complished young lady of Rome, Ga.,
is visiting the interesting anil happy
family of her brother, Conductor J. H
Huffman, of Gailsen. The fair Miss
Isabella is one of those modest, sweet
young ladies that look the picture irf
lovliness, happiness and beauty, and
is one of the most radiantly and beau-
tifully luminous figures to be found
among her sex; also is the rich and
proud possessor of a most fascinating
pair of sparkling peepers, suppliment-
ed with the most gorgeous, beautiful
showers of coal black tresses, which
fall so gracefully and nestle so close-
ly, charmingly, admirably and covet-
ously about her neck and shoulders
in such rich profusion, and which
would make a Greecian queen of tieauly
envious could she but see her. Miss
Huffman belongs to a distinguished
Georgian family or the genuine thor-
oughbred type, refined, modest, cul-
tured and Intellectual, bordering some-
what on gilt-edge aristocracy, while
sprightlineMs is set upon her lips, and
in readiness of wit,she is unsurpassed.
The Mirror wishes for Ihe fascinating
and fair Miss Isabella a most delic-
iously pleasant time during her so-
journ in I lie beautiful Queen City on

Dud Blackwell, a second member
of the quintet, was found in an un-
conscious condition, and it is believ-
ed that he cannot recover. He is a

from his home, and his whereabouts
are unknown. No trace of him has
been seen around town today.
The other two members of the par-
ty. Pill Hensley and a man from Wich-
ita, are painfully ill, but It is believed
they will recover.
The five men purchased bottle after
bottle of bay rum from the drug stores
last night. The bottles were all plain-
ly marked. "For external use only,"
but that did not prevent the men from
attempting lo satisfy their thirst with
the stuff.
