A Frl1htful Collls2on

T1oeA JUNCTION, PI., Sept 1G.-About
1908 p. m. the train from Elmira south,
carrying seven coaches, ran into q Fall
Brook engine at this station, causing a
fearful wreck, killing and injuring in all
abou: twenty five persons The train was
coming down heavy grade, and owing to
a slippery track and the refusal of the
air brakes to work, the engineer was I'm.
ablo TO stop tho train at the station, and
it rushed by, crushing into one of the Fall
Brook heavy Jumbo engines, completely to
demol'shing both. The engineer and fire.
man jumped for their lives and escaped
with slight injuries. The smoker and
three passenger cars were smashed into
kindling wood. The wreck caught fire,
and it was with difficulty that some Of
the passengers were rescued from tho
burning wreck. Tho flames lit up tho
heavens for miles around, ard people
rushed to the scene from oil parts to
render what aid they could to the injured.
A message was sent to Elmira asking for
medical aid and a train in very short time.
IN the meantime doctors from Lawrence
and Iioga had arrived, and given all pos
s bic assistance. Strctchers were quickly
provided and tho wounded were carried
to neighboring houses.

Where People Think.

A Boston newspaper man, who has
been travelling through Indian Ter
ritory, is enthusiastic in his praises of
the progress and thrift of the Chero-
KEGS. The Bostonian was surprised to
find these civilized Indians so intelli-
gent and interesting in conversation.
They admitted to him that they read
very few books and newspapers, and
yet they talked clearly and forcibly,
and their talk was full of wisdom and
striking originality. Upon investiga-
ton the stranger noted the fact that
the average Cherokee spent much of
his time in meditation, and an eminent
educator at Tahlequah informed him
that his daily habit of silent thought
did as much for intellectual improve
ment as our study of books. All of
this is doubtless very surprising and
unaccountable to a Boston man who
ruined his eyes over books before he
turned out his whiskers, but there is
nothing wonderful in it. Systematic,
logical thinking, dealing with human
nature and the facts of common life,
broadens mans mental horizon,
makes him wise, and enables him very
often to hold his own with men who
have tried to make book knowledge
supply the place of thought The
Cherokees have done well in holding
on to their natural system of education
after adopting an artificial system.
They are noble race of people, and it
may be that they will yet play an i'm
portant part in our intellectual history.
In the mean time it would not hurt the
whites to initiate their red brethren in
this matter of thinking. In this age
the tendency is to speak, write and act
in a machine-like way. We should be
more deliberate. We cannot expect to
eXtemporize wise thoughts, judicious
plans and great enterprises-observa-
ton and deep thought are back of all
these things. Atlanta Constitution.

He Came to Judgment.

I" You say" asked the justice, that
the defendant knocked your hat over
your eyes and kicked you off the stoop
when you presented the bill?" Yes,
sir" replied the prosecuting witness.
/" 1t was gas bill?" Yes, your honor,
and it was right; took the figures off
the meter myself" "And you know
it was correct?" Yes, your honor"
six months for perjury; if you say
another word, witness, I'll fine you a
thousand dollars for contempt. Take
him away" And remarking to the
clerk that he burned some gas himself,
his honor calmly proceeded to send an
anarchist to Jail for stealing a box of
soap, half dozen turkish towels and a
oothbrush.-Brooklyn Eagle.

A Chattanooga, Tenn, special of
October 9Th says: Henry Field,
amateur snake-charmer came to grief
this morning, and was bitten by the
latest acquisition to his list of pets, a
three-foot long rattlesnake. Fields
neighbors were scary of his scaly friends
and he was in the habit of handling the
reptiles when people came to see him.
This morning he took the rattlesnake
out of its box and began playing with
it, winding it around his neck, and
ended by kissing it. To this familiarity
the snake seriously objected and struck
Field in the right cheek with its fangs
Medical aid was summoned, but the
bitten man is expected to die from the
effects of the poison"

A New Yorker, who met a Kansas

The Loving Memory of Dogs.

The late Mr.. Eyre, clergyman, left
a dog which was very much attached to
him at the country house of friend
while he left England for long soiourn
abroad. After two years Mr.. Eyre re-
turned, arriving at his friends house
late at night, and retiring without hav-
ing the dog called. Next morning Mr..
Eyre was awakened by the dog bursting
into the bedroom, and leaping upon
him with the widest demonstrations of
delight. How did he know l had ar
rived?" asked the gentleman of the
servant who brought hot water. go
SIR" the man replied, " it is the most
curious thing! As | was cleaning your
boots the dog recognized them, and be-
came excited beyond measure, and l
had not been able to quiet him until
he saw where l was carrying them, and
rushed up along with me to your door. "
A correspondent of the same English
paper relates that he gave away, at a
year old, dog which he was unable to
keep in his London home. After eight
years the dog was returned to its first
owner. "The dog met me-" says the
correspondent, " at first as stranger,
and then with little animated shifts OF
inquiry, going round and round me. l
remained still for few moments, while
she grew more and more excited. AT
last | stopped and patted her, and called
her by her name, Dee On hear
ing my voice the poor beast gave what
| can only describe as a scream of rap
ture, and leaped into my arms. From
that moment she attached herself tC
me as if she had never left me, and

Dear LuXuries.

When Meissonier built his house at
Poissy, a suburb of Paris, he had it
torn down eight or ten times because,
when completed, some detail displeased
him. He built another house at Les
Jardins, but forgot to put in staircase
He took the mistake good-natured!y,
and placed ladder against the outside
wall. His house at Poissy was adorned
with fountains, Conservatives, up
holstery, statues, but not a picture by
the artist hung on its walls. A lady,
observing this want, said to him:
see beautiful things, M. Meissonier-
beautiful gardens, beautiful rooms,
books, rich hangiugs, etc.-but see
none of your own pictures" "Ah,
madame" answered he, " they are too
dear to allow me to keep them."-

The Last Goodnight.


clad in their night-gowns, clean and white,
The children come to say goodnight"
Father. goodnight" says Mariory,
Climbing for kisses on my knee.
Then Ernest, Klttie, Harry next,
And baby till felt porplexed,
wishing the last goodnight was said,
And each and all were packed to bed.
These small folks take me unawarcsi
hear them call, when safe upstairs,
As sit down to read or write,
" Father, we want to say goodnight"
The book or pen is laid aside;
| find them lying open-eyed
Five rosy rebels, girls and boys
who greet me with tumultuous noise.
Can be stern with such as these?
Can charming ways and looks displease?
They hold, and scarce will let me go,
And all because they love me so.
Then in a vision suddenly
The future seems unveiled to mel
II is my turn, though all In vain
To long to say goodnight again.
] see the years stretch on and on,
The children all grown up anu gomez
No chamber echoes to their tread,
The last goodnight has long been said
And by his fireside desolate
An old man sits, resigned to walt
Recalling Joys that used to be,
And faces that he may not see
Therefore, what bliss is mine that now
l still can smooth each fair young brow
And feel the arms that clasp me tight,
The lips that kiss the last goodnight
