A HOODOO MULE.
Three of its Drivers Have Been
Stricken With Paralysis.
A dispatch from Colombia, S.
C, says : "There is a big bay
mule standing idle in the stables
of the Columbia Street improv
ing force, lie is gentle and
kind, but it will require a strong
minded man to drive him.
A few days ago John B.igby,
a white employee of the city,
was stricken with paralysis and
now lies seriously ill at his
home. The fret that otlur
members of the force have been
warning mm lor a year uiiu uc
would be so afflicted became
known, and an investigation was
made, resulting in the discovery
that since this particular mule-
has been owned bv the cilv. it
has had thiee drivers The
first, a man named Ksminger,
was stricken with paralysis anc
died. Then Jesse Roof took
charge 01 the bitr mule. About
o "
a year ago he suffered a paraly
tic stroke and is now a cripple
for life. Even then many men
'on tlie frce hegan to talk about
ithe mule and say it was fatal to
drive him. but Haebv took no
m .
stock in that ro t of thing and
he assumed charge of the mule
that other men were afraid to
handle. His companions
warned him from time to time
in a more or less jocular vein,
but his uiisfoitune has given the
case a more serious turn to all
or them.
The coincidence is certainly
singular enough to disturb the
superstitious.
Those who believe chronic

read what Mr. P. K. Grisham, of
Gaars Mills, La , has to say on
the subject, viz.: "I have been
a sufferer from chronic diarrhoea
ever since the war and have tried
all kinds of medicines for it.
At last I found a remedy that
effected a cure and that was

THE INSANE ASYLUM.
Gen. Thos. L. Clingmaii, of
This State, Given a Home.
AN EXCEPTION MADE.
Few Men in the History of the
Union Before the War Made
So Remarkable a Record
as a Statesman, Orator.
Legislator, Warrior,
Duelist and Scien
tist. A special to the Atlanta Jour
nal from Morganton, N. C, says:
Gen. Thomas L. Clingmaii, ex-
United States Senator, whose
name 35 years ago was on every
tongue in this country, has been
admitted to the State asylum
for the insane in this city. Gen.
Clingmaii does not become an
inmate of this institution because
of any acute derangement of his
mind, though his intellect shows
little evidence of its former ac
tivity and ability. It is against
the policy of the institution to
receive such inmates, but in this
case that of a man whe, as a
member of the lower house of
Congress, as United States Sen
ator and Confederate general,
has rendered the State such con
spicuous service it felt that an
exception might well be made.
Aged, poor, infirm, mentally and
physically, the State offered a
home to the once great states-
man, ana miring tne remaining
years of his life, it will extend
to him, who fought and bled for
its cause, the most tender care a
government can bestow a home
and a protecting hand.
General Clingmaii was born
81 years ago in Yadkin county,
this State. Few men to-day re
alize what a political factor he
was during the quarter of a cen
tury ending with the surrender
of Lee. Looking upon him to
day, bowed with age, expres
sionless from mental infirmity,
depressed from poverty, few peo
ple would recall without sur
prise the record he made as a
statesman, orator, legislator,
warrior, duelist and scientist.
Few men in the history of the
Union before the war. made so
remarkable a record as a public
debater. It is recalled that du
ring the slavery debate in Con
gress his speeches were full of
Southern lire and enthusiasm,
and his fame became internation
al because of his aggresive at
titude toward the Clayton-BuN
wer treaty. One speech on the
causes of Henry Clay's defeat
led to a duel with William Yan
cey, of Alabama.
The political career of geher
al Clingmaii begins with when,
in 1835, then a young lawyer of
Hillsboro, N. C, he was elected
as a Whig to the State Legisla
ture from Surry county.
In the autumn of 1836 he re
moved to Asheville, as there
was prospect that the proposed
Charleston and Cincinnati rail
road would pass through that
place. In the convention held
to discuss the subject of change
of route he took a leading place
and opposed Colonel Memmin
ger, of South Carolina, an ex
perienced debater, with such
ability that his name became
known throughout the country
and his fellow townsmen re.
warded him with an election to
the State Senate. He became a
leader of the Whig party, and
in 1843 was elected to the nat
ional House of Representatives,
over Jan.es Graham, who had
serred for ten years, and con
tinued in office until June 14.
1S58, with the exception of the
29th Congress. In 1858 he
was appointed to fill the va
cancy in the Senate left by the
resignation of Asa Biggs. At
the end of the term he was re,
elected.
On January 21, 1861, Mr.
Clingmaii withdrew from Con
gress with the other Southern
members, and in May was sent
to the Confederate Congress to
give assurance that North Car
olina would support the cause
of the South. He entered the
Confederate army as colonel of
the Twenty-fifth North Carolina
Regiment, aud served with such
daring and brilliancy that in
eight months' time he was made
brigadier general. He was in
command of the defense of
Goldsboro, held Sullivan's Island
aud Batiery Wagner during the
attack on Charleston, led the
attack on Newberne in Febru
ary, 1864, broke Butler's lines
at Drury's Bluff May 16, and
forced him- back to Bermuda
Hundreds, was wounded at Cold
jarbor. repelled the attack on
Petersburg June 17th, attacked
the enemy near Petersburg Au
gust 10th, defeating them with
a small force and capturing 200.
In this conflict he was severely
wounded and was onlv able to
rejoin his command a few days
before Johuson's surrender at
Greensboro in April, 1865.
General Clingman was a del
egatetothe national Democratic
convention held in 1S65. Since
that time he has studiously
avoided -politics, and until a few
years ago devoted the remainder
of his life to science. As a
scientist he made important
contributions to Silliman's Jour
nal aud other publications. He
explored the mountains of his
native State, discovered that
they contained the loftiest peaks
of the Appalachian rage, the
chief one of which was measured
by him in 1855 and now bears
his name ; opened the mica mines
of Mitchell and Yancey counties,
made known the existence in
the State of corundum, zircon,
rubies aud other irems: bv his
observations on the meteor of
August 2t i860, furnished the
best evidence yet given of the
height of the hemisphere, aud
affirmed that in some way sound
might be transmitted with the.
speed of electricity. Pie pub
lished several volumes, inclu
ding "Speeches" and "Follies of
the Positive Philosophers."
General Clingman .was never
married. It is related, however,
that the only time he ever voted
for legislation that he could not
heartily endorse was during his
early years in Congress when a
woman was lent to him by a
scheming lobby, and he fell a
victim to her appeals.
A SAVAGE ELEPHANT.
Fatally Injures Her Keeper in
Greensboro.
Just before the circus parade
in Greensboro lait Saturday, a
large female elephant belonging
to the Franklin-Robinson show,
was found to be in a very ugly
temper, and keepei L. F Smith,
of Cleveland, Ohio, went to her
and was immediately seized
around the waist by the ele
phant's trunk and thrown about
thirty feet in the air, when the
boss of the elephant, Jenks,
went to his aid, and he, too, was
thrown down and badly hurt.
Smith had his skull cracked and
was internally injured. It is
thought he will die. After the
parade, the sullen animal was
taken to the woods back of the
tent and chained down. She
was then prodded with pitch
torks till the blood spouted, but
as she was tiill unconquered, a
fire was built unde: her until
about a yard of her skin was
burned off. This elephant has
killed two men before and next
time she will be killed.

HORHiBLE
RAILWAY DISASTER.
Terrible Plunge of a Passenger
Tr.iin into the Hudson
River.
TWENTY LIVES LOST.
Sleeping Passengers Wake Up
In Eternity. Tracks Un
dermined By High
Tides.
The New York and Boston
express train No. 46, over the
New York Central & Hudson
River road, was thrown from
the tracks into the Hudson river
at Corbin's Basin, two miles be
low Garrisons, at about 5:40
Sunday morning.
There were ninety-six pas
sengers and lourteen train hands
on board. No list was obtained
of those who were in the sleep
ing car. Twenty persons are
known to be dead, and the list
is not yet complete. The bod
ies recovered are all at Cold
Spring, where, the coroner has
his office.
The engiue and express car
are in Fity feet of water. The
combination baggage and smoks
ing car and one day "coach are
submerged.
Ol the six sleepers, one is en
tirely under water, two are only
paitially covered. Three of the
sleepers did not leave the track.
The wreck is said to have
been caused by the tide's wash
in r away the underpinning of
the track.
The engineer and fireman
went down with the engine.
Many passengers were rescued
through the car windows.
Among those in the smoking
car were eleven Chinamen, who
had been smuggled in from
Canada. All save three or them
were lost.
Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Maltby,
of Buffalo, favorite nephew of
the New York Central's presi
dent, were among the rescued
passengers.
Another was an Englishman,
supposed to be Lord Douglas, of
Hawick, eldest son of the Mar
quis of Queensberry and brother
of Lord Sholto Douglas.
It was a quarter past 3 o'clock
in the morning, when train 46,
which now lies in ruins at the
bottom of the Hudson, pulled
out of Albany and rumbled
across the bridge on its fatal
journey south.
All the way from Buffalo aud
even further west, its doom had
been making. Little delays,
things which are ordinarily of
no moment, had worked together
to hold back the trains which
should have led the way for this
one.
The Big four connection was
late from Cleveland into Buffalo,
and 46 started away from the
Lake city on the time of the
train Jhat should have preceded
it by half an hour.
Again the Montreal express
was delayed in Troy to take on
the aceneiy and baggage of
James J. Corbett s show, and
again ill-fated 46 took the right
of way, and started on with its
burden of sleeping souls
It spun ou with all speed
through the dumb hours that
come before the dawn. The
river villages slumbered as ic
swept through them. Tiie block
signals told oft the distances with
mechanical precision. The
track was right as a trivet.
It was twentythree minutes
of 6 when Fireman Tompkins
sawed at his bell rope and the
clanging announced the passing
of Garrison's station.
The doom was at hand.
Two miles, or a little less, be
low the town, there is a great
curve, whre the river's eddying
has cut out a mighty mouthful
from the hills that- overlook it.
They call it Corbin's Basin.
For years it has been known to
Central engineers as a danger
spot, and always the track hands
have been pottering away there,
braeiug up the loose, uncement
ed retaining wall which guards
the made ground on which the
track is laid from the eroding
action of the river.
This was the spot marked for
the scene of ruin aud death
The deep channel here bends
close in shore. Under the very
shadow of the steeps there are
seventy feet of water, and the
high tides which for days and
11
weeks nave made tait among
the river men hart eaten into the
flimsy underpining silently but
strongly. Workmen had been
at work upon the wall within
the past few days. Their work
was of no avail, if the railroad
company's th ory of what caused
. 1 - -
me norror is ine true one,
though an hour before a heavv
train had passed over this same
spot in safety and its crew had
received no warning of danger
lurking there.
There may have been a rail
spread. Some among the throng
which hung all day about the
scene of disaster, say it was so
w . mm. a .
it is said, too, that the private
report submitted to the Central
magnates gives that as the real
cause.
There may have been a bowl
der on the track, fallen there
from the hillside. There are
those who say the uptorn condi
tion of the space between the
rails for a distance before the gap
where the great fabric plunged
out into the river's bed, shows
that the engine's pilot had been
bent and shattered.
Engineer Foyle and Fireman
Tompkins knew the truth about
it but the knowledge could not
more than have dawned upon
them when, with a great crash,
and shriek, and a snapping of
irons and a crunching of timbers,
the doomed train leaped clear of
the curving track, fair over the
narrow fringe of bank that lay
outside the rails, and plunged
like a rocket into the river's
depths. Foyle and his fireman
were past all telling then.
How far the engine sped in
its flight to the dark waters, no
one knew. " It was a long way,
for the cars which it dragged
behind it swept clear of the
bank, and crashed one upon an
other as the river engulfed them.
A rush, a roar, a thunder, that
shook the hills and. echoed for
miles up and down the Hudson.
It woke the sleeping passengers.
Some of them had, in truth,
been awake for an hour, remark
ing to one another the awful
speed at which they were being
whirled onward.
Hurled from their seats aud
from berths in their sleepers,
they knew in that awful instant
what had happened. Those
who were awake heard, above
alLthe thunder of the wreck and
the rushing of the waters, wild
screams of terror which will live
in their memories while they
live.
The express car, haled on by
the engine's strength, and as that
waned, driven by the mighty
weight of the train behind it,
measured its length again and
again beiore it disappeared in
ruin. Behind it the combina
tion smoker and baggage car,
running rear foremost, went un
der. In the smoking compart
ment huddled the Chinamen, a
dozen of them. For a minute,
and little more, they chatterrd
in terror. Then the waters
poured in on them, and, save
two who tought their way out
at the heels of the trainmen, all
were lost..
In the baggage car section of
the car. William Shaw, agent of
Westcott's Express ; Ackert, the
baggageman, and John Smith,
the expressman, were talking.
The lurch hurled them head
long, and the piles of baggage

Only three of the six slecners.
the Glen, Alpide, Jlermes and
Niobe, had left the rails. The
coupling breaking with the
strain had left the others, with
lie battered Rochester car Diana
at their head, standing if
he other side of the cavernous
gap where the track had given
way.
The porters and the few half-
naked passengers who rushed
out from the cars on ch
watched in the fog-dimmed, gray
morning light the fearful scene
which lay before them. Thev
saw Conductor Parrish and his
break man standing on the tops
of the half sunken cars anA
lelping the imprisoned ones to
scramble from the windows.
They saw Ackert, and Shaw
and Smith workintr awav on
he rescue of people from the
day coach. They saw the shat-
ered glass fly from the sleeping
car windows and men and wo
men clambering out in scant
raiment and clutching their
valuables in the mad hope of
saving them.
There were men swimming
n the swift running tide water
and helping along their fellows
who could not swim. There
were boats, coming as swift as
oars could bring theni, from the
azy craft which were creeping
up-river through the morning
mist.
The early boatmen on these
vessels were the sole eye wit
nesses of the heavy train's leap
o destruction.
Awful hours followed. Peo
ple came hurrying from far and
near, and lent what help they
could to the desperate labor of
rescue. Little by little the
crowd on the banks grew. Wo
men who had been brought off
half clad from the partially sub
merged sleepers Hermes and
Niobe, and the Glen, which was
lost to view entirely, fainted
when they knew they were
saved, and were bundled in
blankets and put to bed in the
other cars.
One after another the 'trains
which had given the place of
death to forty-six came up, and
aboard them, too, the survivors
of the wreck were taken for
shelter.
The gathering of the saved
grew steadily. Bruised, spent,
bleeding, they made their way to
the shore.
Clinging to the jagged rocks
off the shore was a man, dying
and screaming to men who
could not reach him, begging
them to put an end to his suffer
ing. His left arm was torn from
its socket. Both his legs were
broken. The people cried to
him to hold on. At last a boat
from a tug which had halted in
its journey up the river came
and took him off and brought
him to land. Then his strength
all left him. In less than half
an hour he was dead and his
body lay covered with a sleep
ing car blanket on the bank
where the train had left the
track.
Surgeons came irom the
neighboring towns. Injured men
and women were taken away to
neighboring hospitals.
And then the sad-procession
to the city began.
By the light of lanterns and
flaring torches, all through the
night, the work of search for
the dead and missing has gone
on.
