L. Gray, tho train would undoubtedly have been derailed on au embankment and many pass eugers would have been killed and in jured. Tho coolness of tho engineer saved his passengers and traiu from injury and 1 thwarted tho plans of the culprit who snugt to kill and maim. Tho attempt is supposed to have been made by somo trump kicked off a preceding traiu, who sought to get yuugenco upon tho company br wrecking the passenger. A tramp was soon in the vicinity of the place whore the attempt to derail tho puss enger was made, only a short time bn foro thu traiu was due, but uo trace has beeu found of hi 111 since the attempt, A reward of 1250 has been ottered for the arrest aud conviction of thu cul prit by the Southern Paellio company District Attorney A. E. Rcames was on board the train, and imiue liately started an investigation by the oftVcrs of tho law. ' Tho would-bo wrecker sought to accomplish his purpose by placing a tie across the track. The obstruction, however, proved too light to throw the engine from too rails. Tho strik ing of the tin and a rock hurled through a window of tho sleeper just at the time of the collision caused great excitement among the passen gers. The passengers who filled the cars were unconscious of the impend ing danger until the crash of the collision came. Just at the timo tho engine struck the obtsriictioii a large stone went crashing through the glass win dows of thu sleeper. Everyone was thrown into a paiiio of excitement, and almost before the train came to a stop, excited und frightened passen gers were pouring out of the cars. The cause of the trouble was ex plained, and order was once more le stored. The tie was re ved from tho engine, and after a short search was made for thu instigator of jt he attempted wreck, the train continued ils journey. When the pusseiigcr leaned what had happened, and that the coolness of Engineer Gray probably saved their lives, they raised a pursu ami presented it to him.

The prohibi tion program is eminently suecestful. The attention of Ohio legislators is hereby called to recent testimony on this point from a strong republican Journal, the Emporia Gazette, of January SI, 1UD4. Tho Ga.etlo Is edited by man who lias no connec tion with auy church, but who writes from tho sttiudjiotut of a politician. His editorial is a ringing tribute to tho splendid progress of a town that unshackles itself from saloonistu and saloon-bossed politicians. Ho says: "A new school house is one of the next things .to come, though the (own has built a big school building nearly every your for a decadu. Tho town is mnru thoroughly equipped with good schools than any other towu of its size 111 thu country. Emporia is essentially u school towu; it is chuich town. Two big stone churches were completed ill Emporia last year, and two other churches are trying to lml a contractor to build for them tills year. "Aud above all, Emporia is a clean town. No dirty money goes into the taxes of the town or county, You hear it saiil that to have good schools and clean streets you havu to get dirty moneythat as a towu or county yon have In ruse saloons and hire scarlet win n to ply their trade ami get gamble) to swindbi the sous and hustiands ail fathers.

The poorhousu has few Inmates and is practically no expense, anil tho Jail Is deserted nearly all the time. There has uot beeu a big, ex- pensive criminal suit on the docki t of the Lyon county courts for many years. Murders urn almost unknown, and desertion ami wife beating aud robbery are net found mil ng the peole. The tax to support tho (,lty tree library is greater than the tax to support the police court in this towu. Tho vagrant has to go to thu rock pile, and tho Influence that "swings tilings" in local polities Is the churches and the schools. No politi cian is afraid to put his thumb to his nose and w iggle his fingers at the skey' vote iu Lyon county. There is no w lskey vo'o. The poli ticians truckle to the church people."

Travis, pastor of tho Parsells Avenue BupiiBt Church of Rochester, N. Y.-, lias formally re signed liia pastorate, to take effect on Ju 110 1st. Mr. Travis has accepted a call from the First Baptist Church of Grants Pais, Ore. Mr. Travis will leave Roclioster shortly after the first of the month, going to Han Frauosleo where he and bis family will spend a month with Mrs. Travis' parents, after which he will go on to Grants Pass to take tip his work. Grants Pass is a village of about 4000 Inhabitants uear the bor der lino of California. It Is the cen ter of the inlulng and lumber dis- Rev. Travis, Pastor Baptist Church. trlets. The call to this work is con sidered ll.itti ring. A year ago last January, Mr. Travis received a call to the First Baptist Church of Dixon, Cul., but was then iersuadeil to remain at tho Parsells Avenue church. Ho was born on the Pad lie roast and was graduated from the California collcgu at (Vklaud. A short time ago ho received a call from a church in New Jersey, but he locllned this, it being his desire to go back to the Fuel Ho roast. When the call came last week from Grants Pass' he felt that this was 'Ills opportunity. Mr. Travis took up his work at the Parsells Avenue Church iu November, IHUil, as student pastor, while study ing at liochtstcr Theological Hemi uary, nnd Iu May lH'.m, ou his gradua tion, be was formally railed as per manent pastor. When lie began the work, the church had about 50 mem bers. It now lias over 17 with all its departments well organized and active. During Mr. Travis' pastoratu the church building has hocu remodeled and Improved, uud the finances of tho society are in good condition. Al though many members will regret to , have thu pastor leavo his work here, it is quite probable that Ills res i 1,11a tlou will bo accepted tonight, as he has urgently requested It. The church is iu every way livo and pros perous, aud It. is felt t lint its work will uot he seriously affected by a change of pastors, as would have beeo the case when Mr. Travis received the cull from Dixon. Mr, Travis has been prominent in Y. M. O. A, work, being a member of its special com mittee seeking civic aud political re forms in Rochester. Rochester, (Y. N. ) Dcmociat and I'bronlcle, .
