the Katy flyer being wrecked at W

“Denison, Tex., June 15—Tbcj^
second attempt to wreck a Miss W
ouri, Kansas & Texas train within
■ the week was made last night at
1 Wichita Falls, on the H arietta
1 division. A heavy chain was se

1 the efforts of the wonld-be wreck -
1 ers ended in failure. The obstruc-
tion was safely passed over by tbe
engine of passenger train No. 371,
when tbe train was brought to a
stop without any damage having
been done. The indentity of tbe
^ perpetrators and their motives form
a basis for much speculation among

“Some clew as to the parties
who placed a nut on the track near

wreck the Northbound Flyer, and
in which instance a serious wreck
was narrowly averted, has been
discovered, and arrests are looked
for soon. Secret service men have
been engaged to hunt down the
criminals.”
Bellville, Austin Co., Tex., June «nK PlaDS 10 wreck ‘he train and
i5.—The case of the state of Texas a'so saw ‘he™ PIa« ‘be chain
vs. Sam Cumings, charged with j on the track. He says be is able
the murder of Richard Wietstruck to indentify the men if brought be-
here on July 33, 1904, was called <»« them. The boy will be taken
for trial yesterday morning. A to Gainesville this evening, where
special venire ot eighty men was
nearly exhausted before a jury was
obtained. The evidence developed
that on the evening of July 23, ’04,
the Bellville brass band was practic-
ing upstairs in tbe Haak building
and tbe young Witestruck, aged
about 22 years, was a member oi
tbe band, operating tbe “snare
drum.” That during the practic-
ing young Cumings, aged about 20
years, together with several other
boys of about his age, went up-
stairs to listen to the music. That
young Wietstruck got up and Cum-
ings took his seat. Wietstruck re-
turning and finding his seat occu-
pied began beating a tattoo on Cum
ings’ head, the same having been
shaved. A tussle ensued at which
Wietstruck downed Comings.
-After being separated both parlies
protested that the affair was “in
fun." Soon afterward the band,
wanting to hold a business meeting,
younng Cumings with all others
non members of tbe band, went
downstairs. Several parties testi-
fied that young Cumings had made
- threats against Wietstruck, stating
that he would get even with him;
that he would take 10 cents worth
ot skin off his head; that be would
disfigure deceased so that his own
mother would not know him, etc.,
during which time Cumings exhib-
ited and held in bis hand rocks.
The evidence showed that he was
admonished to desist, and that the
person to whom he uttered the
threats did not believe that he
would execute them. About an
hour after the non members of the
band went downstairs the band
meeting adjourned and as they
came down and Wietstruck stepped
out on thi sidewalk young Cum-
ings hurled a piece of a brick at
his head with such force that his
skull was broken. Alter lingering
for five or six hours he died. The
court’s charge was on murder in
the first and second degrees, man-
slaughter and aggravated assault.
Alter deliberating tor about two
hoars the jury returned a verdict

Cuban Diarrhoea-
U. S. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what
this diseaes is, and that ordinary
remidies have little more effect than
so much water. Cuban diarrhoea is
almost as severe and dangerous as a
mild attack of cholera. There igone
remedy, however, that can always
be depended upon as will be seen
by the following certificates from j
Mrs. Minnie Jacobs of Houston,
j Texas: “I Hereby certify thst Cham
