DR.. Riley, veterinary surgeon residing at
Seabright, N. j., was run over and killed
Thursday morning at the East Long Branch
station of the New Jersey Southern rail
road The unfortunate man had been waiting
at the Hotel Brighton talking to some friends
and intended to take the 1928 train to Sea-
bright. He babe them adieu and started for
the depot. By singular coincidence both
the down and up trains were on time, and
the train for Seabright having come to

boarding his train. The down train came
rushing on and when directly opposite the
depot, in full view of the waiting crowd,
str uck the doctor before he could get out of
the way. The scene that ensued battles de-
scription. The poor man struggled to free
himself but in vain. The cars moved re-
lentlessly along, crunching his bones and
leaving trail of blood on the way. The
sight was sickening and many ladies who had
stood horror stricken gazing upon the strug-
giles of the man tainted away, while others
screamed with terror. The train was finally
brought to a standstill and the mangled body
of the unfortunate man was extricated from
beneath the cars. His limbs hung by shreds
his intestines we're exposed to view and his
face SO cut and disfgured that he was scarce
ly recognizable. Strangely enough he recov-
cred consciousness for brief period prior to
his death, but did not speak. DIR. Riley, who
was highly esteemed, leaves family. The
accident was not occasioned by any neglL

Showers of missiles caused the elephant to
retire. He retired to a neighboring oat field
and remained there until this morning, when
he allowed his keeper to approach him and
permitted a rope to be passed over his neck.
He was led through the streets to the place
from which he started on his runaway freak
Not one of his victims heard his approach,
and as none of them expected such an adver-
sary he was able to take them unawares. 1t
Is reported that Emperor is the circus ele-

er, while reticent on this point, admitted that
Emperor's temper is very ugly. He said it
would not be safe to keep him on the road
another season.
When Emperor ran away from his COM
rades at the Rensselaer, Iron Works the other
elephants ran toward the river and one
jumped in. After swimming a short dis
lance he was glad to get out. His keeper
tied him to a tree and captured the other
two. The one that was tied managed to get
his foot loose, and the three scampered of
again. They tore down the fence at the
German Catholic church and cut up othe,
capers. They were finally captured and con
veyed to Green Island.

1t is claimed that SO much money has ac-
cumulated in the savings banks of New York
city that the officers are unable to reinvest it
satisfactorily. The president of the Sea
mems bank says that the recent investment
of the funds of that institution yield scarcely
more than three per cent, yet the customers
of the bank have been receiving four per
cent. on their deposits. The bank is enabled
to pay this rate of interest only by reason of
it's having several millions of dollars of secu-
rites, bought in former years, which pay
from four to seven per cent. interest None
of the New York savings banks will accept
more than 81 900 as a single deposit, and at
the old Bowery savings bank no individual is
allowed to deposit a greater amount than
$3.50 in any Dix months. In spite of these
| rules, however, the SURPRISES in most of the
savings banks have increased so rapidly that
they have become unwieldy and unprofita
BILE, and the managers of the various institu-
| tions feel that a reduction of the rate of in
terest on deposits will soon be absolutely
necessary. One large savings bank, the
Greenwich, has already announced that here

ring many people from visiting that shore re-

The Glasgow Weekly Herald prints q letter
from commercial traveller in Ireland, of
sixteen years experience, in which no says:
Several branches of Irish industry that
were formerly struggling for an existence
have been stimulated into great prosperity
This is specially true of Irish tweed fac
tories, which cannot now fill their orders.
New tweed factories are springing into ex-
istence, and in few instances new industries
have been started, and are doing roaring
trade. Guinness, the great brewer, has
started a large wooden factory. The making
of glass bottles, which hitherto has had but
scant success, is going on prosperously,
chiefly on account of the enthusiasm for
everything of homo manufacture. Many
other industries are thriving under this home
made ZEAL" This is cheering.

Modes that Pay Best.

The profits arising from the several
products of the farm are not usually es-
timated with such care as to enable the
farmer to say which particular source of
income has been the best, on the score
of net profit. Each days duties, wheth-
er OH or off the farm, if paid for on the
score of time, of course leave their own
estimate when the day is ended. If the
farmer and breeder rested upon any
such basis for getting ahead in the world,
the balance sheet would make a ruinOuS
showing at the end of the year. If his
plans are not wisely laid, with a view to
an indirect hourly gain to his purse,
through the growth of crops, that, while
he is asleep, reach down into the chem
ical laboratory beneath the surface
which is his mine-bringing up the ele-
ments of growth, and through the steady
growth of the young stock on the farm
also a mine-then he lacks tact in
using his acres to advantage. The value
of niue is not in the surface it covers,
but in the richness within a given space.
The practical value of a given field is
not that it contains specified number
of acres, but that the yield is large for
the surface covered.
The profits in farming and stock grow
ing are not usually counted up with pre-
cision, so that it may be known whether
there is or is not any profit in given
undertaking. 1t is partially but not
entirely true that it is more difficult to
keep accounts on the farm from which
the same accurate conclusions may be
arrived at as is possible in ordinary lines
of trade. If a certain enclosure in pas
ture grass causes a given number of
steers to gain specified number of
hundred pounds during the season, as
shown by the scales, then it is not diff
cult to show by the figures what the in
come will be from the gross gain. If
farmers would adopt the plan of doing
this, many of them would see the mag
nitude of the mistake made in keeping
cattle that bring only three or four cents
a pound, in place of such as bring six
cents. The footings would stagger
man who had never tested the difference
by figuring up the outgo and the income
on the two classes, side by side.
What is true of the steers, has an
equally apt illustration in dairying, as
nothing can be easier than to charge up
the grass on a given surface, giving
credit on the opposite page for the
amount of butter and cheese produced
during the season.
The same is true of all branches OF
stock growing and farming, and the
Journal repeats what it has urged be-
fore, that strict system of accounts is
necessary on the farm.-Natto'aak LsU<
