The train which left this city for Spokane at 3 o'clock, was wrecked on a curve four miles down the line. The accident was caused by the flange of the front wheel of the locomotive breaking. Ou rounS ing the curve on the op grade, the broken flange struck the rail and threw the en gine off the track. The engine was re versed at once, but whirled into the ditch on the left side of (be track and plowed the earth many jards, almost burvioo: itself. The wrecked train con sisted of a sleeper, two chair-cars, a sec ond-class passenger and smoker, beside the express, bnggage - aud mail curs. Frank Walls, the engineer, sod Charles Keys, the fireman, were the only ones In jured, Walls being scalded about the neck and left arm. but not dangerously, and Keys cut about the face and neck. A relief train was immediately sent to the scene of the wreck, and the passenger- cars, which remained on the track, were brought URck to Colfax. At 9:30, the train left fur Spokane by way of Pleasant Valley. At the scene of the wreck, the rails are in kinks for forty yards, und it will take till uoon 'tomorrow to pnt the track in proper condition. Considerable excitement was occasioned here wben the news fif t n-ached the city, as a fecre or more of prominent peopie were on the train bound for Spokane to attend the Marine band concert. ' One More Blunder. Washington, April 22. The Damo crats carried out today ono of the moat glaring of all their blunders. It seated Dave Hill's man, Rockwell, even over turning the report ol the Democratic committee of the bouse. .There were enough honest Demccra's to stand by the committee to show that Rockwell was re tamed simply that lie was a Democrat. d partisanship was stronger than jus tice. If the party had voied solid for Rockwell there would not be the disgrace attached to the affair that there cow is. Even the farmers' alliance rceu. who usually vote with thp Democrat, voted solidly for the Republican contestant. The vote today is a I runup a for Dave Uia, as it shows he still bus a great pull on the Democratic bouse. It was he who made the first fight against the commit tee report. He reached al! but Hie strojg Cleveland men in the house, and even some or tln.se were won ore". Both Representatives HurmiiDn and Wilson were paired today ami did not vo:e on the contested cases. Tbey would lt have been (or the Republican, who zs the law and evidence irio?, was clc&riy en titled to the seat. An Appeal For Blaine. Chicago, April 23. The Blaine club to-day commenced the circulation, in printed form, of a set of ' resolutions, which were unanimously adopted by the club, reciting that while Blaine had de clared be was not a candidate for the presidency, nevertheless the people bave rights paramount to the individual, and tbat the office should seek the man; therefore it becomes the duty of the in dividual to ignore personal desires and bow to the will of the majority. Blaine extolled as the "Orvatest American. and "there exists a widespread and uni versal desire that the standard bearer shall be the hero of reciprocity." In conclusion, the ' Chicago Blaine Ciub urges upon similar clubs throughout the country, and upon the citizens who sympathize with the movement, s vigorous and combined effort, which will result in the nomination of Blaine, trusting to bis loyalty to tbe party which honored him in the past, to bis regard for the wishes of bis faithful friends, and to his sense of duty to bis country to accept the nomination. ' Harrison, Then Beid. New Tobk, April 23. The Recorder will say to-morrow, in an elaborate article, that Wbitelaw Reid has come from France not to secure the Republican nomination for vice president, but to as sume command of tbe Republican forces of tbe empire state, to supplant Thomas C. Piatt, whose days as a leader arc numbered. Tbe statement is made tbat Mr. Reid does not dtsire to be vice-presi dent, as be has bigber aspirations. Be fore bis time comes lor the oigbest po litical honor, a long programme is to be carried out. It is essential to tbe de velopment of this programme tbat tbe Republican party should be continued in power tor another fonr years, and Mr. Reid, while waiting his turn as a presi dential candidate, will become the minis ter to England. The Recorder s article says tbat Air. Reid's duty at present is to unite tbe Republican tactions in New York. It is believed that be will be ac ceptable as a leader, and can make a smooth path for Harrison's renomination and campaign. The Pope's Episcopal Jubilee. Rome, April 23. At tbe Vatican ex traordinary importance is being given tbe pope's Episcopal jubilee next year. Tbe central organizing committee has already received .notice that thousands of gifts are to be sent. To collect all dona tions more than auu committees, nave been formed in all parts of Christendom. From reports received from these, it is believed tbe presents will equal or per baps exceed those made on' tbe occasion of bis priestly jubilee, wben tbey amount ed to upwards of $3,000,000 cash and $20,000,000 in other presents. The special commission appointed to arrange tbe fetes in connection with tbe juoiiee bave decided a great international pil grimage shall take place next September, in order that those wbo will not be aoie to attend tbe fetes during the first six months of 1893 may bave an opportunity of paying bomsge to his holiness. Tbe principal fete is fixed for February 19, 1893. A Captain Fined. Washington, April 23.

On arrival of tbe boat at La Ensenada, tbe captain was summoned to appecr be fore tbe federal judge, and was sentenced to pay a nominal fine, wbicb be did cheerfully. The captain was treated with great-consideration. - .Bartered His Family. St. Petersburg, April 24.

His wife was already in bed and he was preparing to retire when stricken He procured an ax from the woodshed and chopped his wife into small pieces on tbe bed and then gathered the pieces in pans and emptied them into the stove. His three children, of 8, 10 asd 12 years of age, who slept in the next room, awoke and screamed for help. The cboir mas ter bound and gagged them, dragged them to tbe river at tbe edge of bis place and drowned them. Neighbors, who bad been aroused by tbe children's screams, ran to the river, but too late to save their lives. Tbe father then plunged into the water, but was taken out. A crowd gathered around the jail earlv tbis morn ing and tried to force an entrance that tbey might lynch tbe prisoner, but tbey were driven off by the watchman. The cboir master's insonity is thought to be due to bis fanatical zeal in church work and bis . prolonged fasting. Recently, after living ten days on bread and .water, be showed signs of breaking down, and told bis wife be would commit a grave crime. Tne Deserved Ending of a Brute. Tacosta, April 23.

Fayette, Mo., April 24. This town is again on tbe verge of a race war because of a vagrant sale of negroes, which took place here yesterday. About a month ago a good deal of excitement wascaused by tbe sale of three vagrant negroes. Yesterday the feeling was intensified by the. public sale on tbe block of three men and one woman, because they could offer no yisible means of support. Henry Thompson, William Miller and John Wilkins were the men. All are bearty negroes who bad never before been ar rested. The woman was Mary Whiteside. She was accused ot vagrancy. Tbe colored people were aought into tbe public square at 11 o'clock and a great crowd of both colors gathered. Tbe whites made fun of tbe poor victims, and tbe blacks freely expressed their dis pleasure at an abuse wbicb so cruelly brought to their' minds the days of slavery. The woman was put up first., She brought $10 for sixty days' work. The men sold for $10, $12 and $13 re spectively, being taken by reliable farm ers here about the country. Tbe negroes declare tbat this must stop, or tbat tbe hues must be soldi with the negroes. Tbe sale took place on a block, Sheriff Creiger officiating. The ttlrl Was Saved. Pobtsmotjth, N. April 25.

Jacobsen & Co. 18aplw Hood River Glacier: Surveyors have been at work for some time running the prelim, inary surveys for an irrigating ditch to be taken from tbe east side of Hood river, to ran down the east side with one branch and to cross over tbe main river and supply the west side with another. The estimates of oo'ts of construction are not yet available, bat we understand that tbe outlook is fa vorable for the work being done. No one yet understands the benebt it will be to bave these ditches completed and water in abundance furnished, because no one here has lived in an irrigating or irrigated coun try. We predict tbat when water is avail able lands will be quadrupled in valne and that Hood river valley will be one immense orchard. We freely admit that fine stand ard orchard fruits can be grown on most of our soil without irrigation, bat the farmer needs water to raise grass, vegetables and small fruits to support himself and bis fam ily, while his orchards are growing. The ditches will permit this, and the fruit indos try will receive an impetus tbat will aston ish all of us. The waiting bas been long, and tbe end is not yet, bat for the patient citizen whose faith in Hood River cannot be shaken there is in the near future an ade quate reward. . . ITEMS IN BRIEF.
