THE MASSILLON TRAIN.
Quickest Time and Largest Train Load
To Cross the Continent.
The Russell train of, thirty-two cars
from Masaillon, Ohio,' which passed
through The Dalles Sunday, carried
forty traction engines ; forty-five separa
tors ;. ' five saw . mills ; one car load of
saws, one car load of advertising matter ;
forty water tanks ; in all, goods valued
at $100,000, upon which the freight
amounts to $13,000. The train was
turned over to Mr. S. G. Rigdon, at this
city, after being visited by hundreds of
people, and then proceeded to Portland,
where it was placed on exhibition and
was greatly admired. It was the largest
train, loaded by one firm, that has ever
yet crossed the continent, and it has
made a record for the best time across,
having left the factory at Masaillon on
the 5th inst., and made the trip through,
including the stop of a day in The Dalles,
in thirteen days, without an accident
The firm of Russell & Co. make a spe

egon and Washington trade. They have
their own branch house for the coast at
Portland, employ a number of expert
machine, men, and every year make a
study of ..the requirements of the coast
trade in this line.
The Russell threshing outfit for this
season will certainly be tb,e best in the
market. ' The engines are equipped with
Russell's patent friction clutch, which
has for the past five years kept this en
gine at the hea e procession, The
new Cyclone thre&her for this season has
a double barred cylinder, set in an iron
frame, which entirely overcomes the
tendency to loose spikes, and the frame
twisting out of line, in addition to Rus

which is peculiar to this machine only.

False Conrlotion nilehted His Life.
Edward Murphy, who died at Jack
son, Mich., recently, aged eighty years,
after being struck by an engine, had a
remarkable experience. Thirty years
ago he was tried and. convicted of mur
der in the first degree and sent to prison
ior life, seven, years were spent in soli
tary confinement until life solitary was
abolished, then for fourteen years he
labored In the wagon shop. At the end
of twenty-five years a dying man con
fessed to the murder and Murphy was
released. That was seven, years ago.
The state pensioned him at $300 a year
by a special act of the legislature. He
was broken down and his death resulted
from his inability to hear the whistle of
the train. His only relative is a brother
in Liverpool, England. When he was
convicted he was a prosperous drover.

The courts have been asked to appoint
a guardian for John Swim, an aged
wanderer, who, though worth $300,000,

will not clothe himself properly.
A week ago he was found by the road

farms in several counties, and is known
all over the state as the "wealthy tramp."
